Red Crochet
Sunday, May 05, 2019
Spring fashion is always something that I am so happy to see! Finally color is brought back! That is why the minute I saw this red crochet dress from Chicwish I had to have it (click here to see it). I often find that a lot of spring dresses are sleeveless and while I don't mind that style I don't often reach for that style in my closet. I usually feel I need to put on something over the dress like a cardigan or a jacket to cover up or layer something underneath it. This dress is something special having the elbow length unlined crochet sleeves. Perfect for anyone who likes to cover up their arms like me! This dress is fantastic for any occasion! If you are dressy like me you can wear it everyday and it's even special enough to wear to a wedding if you wanted. I think that makes a great dress when you can wear it for so many different things!
Have you purchased any new spring dresses this year?

Spring fashion is always about layering as you must be able to take off and put on layers depending on the temperature at that moment. The temperature can change so fast and you don't want to get caught being too hot or too cold.
Getting the perfect spring coat is essential for me. This one from April Cornell (See it here: click here) is absolutely perfect! I love the bright color of this jacket and the way the gorgeous embroidery pops on it. This jacket is nice and light but still warm being made out of 100% cotton! I adore the cut of this jacket as it is so flattering to so many body shapes. If you are loving the coat but the color is too bright for you it also comes in a beautiful blue color (see it here: click here).
Now onto the perfect layering pieces. Honestly these 2 white layering pieces (t-shirt and leggings) are a must have! I will be showing you in my next blog the same 2 pieces layered again with another outfit and they look equally amazing!
Lets start with the most adorable t-shirt! This one is made from 100% cotton so it is really breathable keeping you cool in the warm weather and it is so soft. (See it here: click here) The crochet details at the ends of the sleeves is truly my favorite part! It adds just that something special to a simple t-shirt making it a piece you can wear with so many things. This top also comes in a big selection of colors (See all colors here: click here)
The cropped leggings I am wearing are so comfortable and made from 96% cotton and 4% spandex; beautiful material with the perfect stretch. (see them here: click here) The length of these leggings are fantastic to wear with shorter dresses and longer tops all spring and summer long. The sweet subtle embroidery at the thigh that goes down past the knee is such a nice touch. April Cornell always thinks of all the details to make each piece extra special. These leggings also come in black (see them here: click here) and I am pretty sure I am going to need those as well for this season!

End of Winter
Saturday, March 16, 2019
Hopefully it won't be much longer until you will see no snow in my photos! This winter sure has been a long one! The snow did begin to melt then we had a little storm again. When will it end!
Wearing pastels is the perfect way to get me ready for spring. The soft colors really compliment each other especially topped off with this adorable faux fur coat! (click here to see it). This coat really is the cutest piece that I can wear most seasons of the year just to take the chill away.
You have seen me wear this carriage bag (click here to see it) before in my posts but it truly goes with any outfit and really makes me feel like a princess. When I went to see a Broadway Show of Cinderella a few months back of course this bag came along with me and was the star of the night! Trust me every princess needs this bag!

Hearts and more Hearts
Thursday, February 28, 2019
I think we are all beginning to think about spring now that March is here tomorrow! It can be hard to even imagine spring at this point with the cold weather and all the snow, but spring is coming! This is the time of year when I think about transitioning my wardrobe slowly into spring. Wearing layers is my favorite way to begin this and this cozy heart patterned cardigan (click here to see it) is the cutest piece to layer with! I love the chunky knit and the way this cardigan looks like a simple piece from the front but then you see the bold back and it makes a statement!
I think you might notice in my photos my adorable heart shaped box of chocolate bag from Mary Frances! (click here to see it) Isn't it the sweetest (Literally!!) bag you have ever seen?! The detailing as always on a Mary Frances bag is outstanding! Each piece of chocolate is 3D and is made from hundreds of hand placed beads to create unique realistic chocolate designs. This bag is the perfect bag for any person with a sweet tooth for sure!! If you are wondering how much does this bag hold, I had my phone, small wallet, keys and lipstick inside. So enough room for you to carry all of your essentials with you! I am not sure how Mary Frances keeps coming up with all these amazing bag designs but they seem to keep getting better!

Book of Hearts
Wednesday, February 06, 2019
Finally I am able to be outside and take a few photos! It sure has been an incredible few weeks of very cold and very snowy weather! I know it has been the same for most places, so stay strong! I know it's only the beginning of February so I am sure there will be a few more surprises that Mother Nature will throw our way. I am hoping for an early spring as the ground hog here has predicted that but I doubt it! I think he is just fooling with us and getting our hopes up! LOL!
On a happier note I have been able to wear all my adorable sweaters this winter! It is the best way to stay warm and stylish for sure! This sweater I am wearing (click here to see it) is so sweet! It has the cutest heart pattern on it and is incredibly warm and cozy being a little bit oversized. It is a nice cropped length so it makes it perfect to wear with skirts and of course pants and jeans. I do love a long sweater but it's nice to have one in a shorter length like this one.
Now every outfit I wear has to have the perfect accessories and I am seriously in love with this beaded book bag from Mary Frances (click here to see it). It is so great to wear over the shoulder or crossbody and if you want to use it as a clutch you can do that too by unclasping the chain. The bag is incredibly detailed as are all Mary Frances bags. This one is completely covered in beads front and back to create this lovely book pattern. This is the best bag for any book worm or anyone that loves fun and unique bags!
