Monday, June 3rd, 2013

2. Mar y Sol ‘Havana’ Stripe Tote from Nordstrom
3. Kelly & Katie Cerene Straw Tote from DSW
4. nicole by Nicole Miller Randy Tote from JCPenney
5. Hat Attack Striped Beach Tote from Club Monaco
6. Seashore Tote in Sun Valley from Vera Bradley
7. Wide Stripe Beach Tote from LOFT
8. Banago Malaya Tote in Leaf Design from Voguette

I’m headed to Boston tomorrow-not the beach. But it’s only my second week of summer, so I’m still in the beach/poolside honeymoon phase until this 90 degree weather starts to bring me down. I’ll freeze in Boston I’m sure, and definitely don’t need a beach tote (unless I use that adorable Banago Malaya Tote from Voguette as a carry-on!) They were just too cute not to share.

This will be my first trip to Boston, so any recommendations on things to see/do/eat will be much appreciated!

p.s. Sorry for the Photoshop disaster with the Nine West tote. I did learn to always SAVE my work, so maybe in the future you’ll be able to see the FULL bag :)

Have a happy Monday and be sure to follow my trip to Boston on Instagram and Twitter!

I love the idea of mixing floral denim pants with a stripe shirt like in the last look. And I adore the satchel from Warehouse and I’m anxiously awaiting its arrival to my doorstep!

Speaking of doorstep deliveries… my new Nikon came in the mail yesterday! I can’t wait to use it for upcoming outfit posts. So if you have dslr tips, tip away!

coral and leopard

Sunday, February 3rd, 2013


I know a few weeks ago I wrote a post about outfit planning, but I threw this together one morning in a rush due to the unpredictable Louisiana weather. I had never paired this coral color with brown before, but I think I like it. The brown tones definitely needed some color and the bright cardigan and pop of green in the necklace did the trick.

Top- Forever 21, Cardigan- Belk, Pants- JCPenney, Bag- Kohl’s, Watch- Michael Kors, Necklace- Charming Charlie, Shoes- Endless

I hope you’ll take a minute to check out the new faces in the sidebar. Grace Adele’s new spring line is out, and I’ve already picked out this new purple Shay clutch with the stripe (below). I think it will really come in handy when tailgating comes back around. I also have an outfit post coming up with the Lou clutch in leopard!

And I’ve been meaning to tell you that I’m a new member of the Southern Blog Society! If you’re a blogger in the South, I highly recommend joining. I’ve already met so many amazing bloggers just through the couple of weeks I’ve been involved.

It seems skinny jeans are the go to when pairing with a chunky sweater. I tried to branch out on the third look. I love the look of a cropped sweater with a high-waisted skirt and boots.

the envelope clutch

Sunday, November 25th, 2012

1. Poppie Jones Color Block clutch from DSW, $30 2. Slot Through Envelope Clutch from ASOS, $28 3. Metal Bar Detail Envelope Clutch from ASOS, $28 4. Suede Envelope Clutch from American Apparel, $28 5. Colorblock Envelope Clutch from Urban Outfitters, $34 6. Mink Bar Front Envelope Clutch from Dorothy Perkins, $17

I’ve recently been drawn to clutches. It’s becoming an addiction really. I need them in all shapes, sizes, and colors. I’ve grown particularly fond of the envelope clutch lately. The ones above are all great (and I want them all in my closet) because they all cost less than $35. Which is your favorite? If I just HAD to choose, I’d go with No. 5.
