Pink On Repeat

I just can't get enough of this pink shirt from J. Crew. Every time I wear it I find something different to style it with. Probably my favorite clothing purchase of all time. Yeah, I said it.

These pictures look SO posed, because they were. It's kind of corny, but I just had to share another look with this pink top.

Top: J. Crew Factory
Mint Jacket: TJ Maxx
Necklace: Forever 21
Jeans: Loft


It was also little brother's senior prom night. Is this real life? Now I'm sad.


Have a great week!

White, Floral & Chambray


Scarf: TJ Maxx
Chambray top: J. Crew Factory
White Chinos: Gap
Sandals: Marshall's



These Gap Chinos are the best. I've been waiting for the perfect weather to wear them. Yesterday was the day, I can't get enough of this beautiful sunshine. 
I'm also loving these sandals from Marshall's. Glitter wins my heart every time.

Summer Essentials

Recently I went to Atlanta (read about it here) and did a little summer shopping. Yes--I know I was technically on a "shopping ban," but I couldn't go to a shopping wonderland and NOT buy a couple of pieces! The shopping ban did last 17 days which was pretty fabulous for me if I do say so myself.

Long story short, the shopping ban was broken but I got some great pieces. Plus, I'm initiating the ban again starting today (that makes it ok, right?).

Onto my purchases. The pictures above are not the exact items/brands I bought, but they are extremely close.


  • I bought two pairs of chinos from Gap in hot pink and white. I'm super excited about these because they are a great fit and a really light material
  • Gap also had some great fitting v-neck t shirts. I bought one in mint (of course) and lavender - a new favorite. With some jewelry, I think these will make cute combos with the chinos.
  • This is NOT the maxi dress I bought, mine actually came from the loft outlet. It's a navy/paisley combo and I love. I'm also loving this old navy maxi dress shown above. 
  • I bought a skirt similar to the one shown above from old navy. It was on clearance for $11 and  perfect fit. I couldn't pass it up!
  • Finally, I'm in love with these sandals. The ones pictured above are from target. Mine are very similar, but I bought them from Marshall's for $19.99. 
I'm super excited about my summer staples, now I'm ready for some 70 degree weather to wear them!

What summer staples are you loving?

Atlanta Getaway

I went to Atlanta this week for a quick little getaway. It was just what I needed before finals week. I visited my mother-in-law and traveled with the husband's grandma. She's pretty awesome. So here's a recap.

I had to throw in a quick WIW picture on our travel day. Loving the bright spring colors I can finally wear!



We stopped at a restaurant called "The Depot" in Georgia. It's built on the railroad tracks so you can watch the trains come and go while you eat. Pretty cool.



We went to this cafe for lunch and the dessert selection was ridiculous. I may or may not have indulged. Just sayin'.


Tuesday, I brought the red and white out so I could pose as a Braves fan. Really, I was sporting the Cincinnati Reds color, but I felt like a good poser.

I have no idea who these people are, but they make for a good picture with all of their braves attire.
This is the Varsity, a really cool restaurant in downtown Atlanta.




Mine and Husband's food. Greasy Deliciousness. 





The braves game was awesome. They scored three back to back home runs and won the game! 

I hope you had a great week too :)

I love this black and white dress from old navy! I've been wearing it on repeat lately. I like to add a little touch of color to it and originally wore it with an emerald green blazer.

Did I mention I love my little belts? They add so much awesome to every outfit.

Dress: Old Navy
Belt: Steve Madden via TJ Maxx

Current Favorites

In case I haven't mentioned it in a while, I am obsessed with polyvore. It's a great blank canvas to put your ideas together with all of the clothes out there. So, here are my favorite creations lately.
