As bittersweet as the end of summer is for me, I am always excited to dress for fall weather. The thought of sweaters and boots and plaid and scarves gives me all the warm and fuzzy feels. Charlie and Grace just launched their fall collection and there are SO many good pieces! I wanted to share how to take two of my favorite cardigans from the new collection from summer to fall. Cardigans make the perfect transition piece because you can wear them with just about anything. I like to pair them with shorts and a tank at the end of summer and beginning of fall when the days are…

Basic Tanks to Transition from Summer to Fall
Since the season is starting to wind down, right now is an excellent time to stock up on summer basics. Most retailers are really ramping up for fall at this point and are probably going to want to really push through any overstocks in summer inventory that they may have. You will see this reflected in great sales and bargain clearance prices. One of my favorite items to stock up on during this time are basic tanks to transition from summer to fall. It is no secret that I LOVE a good deal. As fun as shopping the clearance racks can be, when all the retailers are trying to clear…

1 kimono, 7 ways
I have been wearing and sharing this kimono a TON since I bought it in the springtime. It even appeared in my current Amazon favorites blog post that I shared a few months back. Anyone following along with me on Instagram knows that I absolutely love myself a good kimono. They are one of the most versatile pieces out there, in my opinion. You can wear them year-round and dress them up or down. They can serve as statement pieces or completer accessories. I’ve even seen people style the same kimono as a top and as a swim coverup. I’ve been sharing this particular kimono a bunch, so I thought…

Wood Watch Styled a Couple of Ways
In my last blog post, I talked about how I discovered Jord watches and why I love them. I also wanted to share a few ways that I’ve worn my unique wood watch. So I thought I would do a second blog post showing my wood watch styled a couple of ways. I decided to go with the Cassia watch in walnut and vintage rose. The rich color of the walnut and the subtle rose color on the face make for a beautiful combination. I think that the wood watch has a beautifully neutral yet feminine look. I have been really digging bohemian-inspired styles lately. This watch flows so well…

Celebrating 1 Year Anniversary with a Jord Wood Watch!
I can’t even believe it, but I have been blogging for almost an entire year! I renewed the registration for my domain just minutes before writing this post. When I initially registered my website a year ago, I had no idea what to expect. Would anyone want to follow me? Would anyone even read my blog posts? Are people going to think that I’m weird for doing this? I have to say that I have learned and grown so much over the past year and I would not change it for the world! I can’t wait to see what my second year of blogging brings! Jord Watches Shortly after I…

Summer Formal Look with Chicwish
If you’re anything like me, you love the timeless classy look of a mesh midi skirt! However, you might not necessarily have a reason to wear one on a day-to-day basis. When Chicwish reached out about a collaboration right around the time that I had a wedding coming up that I was planning to attend, I had all the reason I needed to order this skirt. When I saw it, I immediately knew that it would make the perfect summer formal look. As I continued to peruse their site, I saw this lace crop top and knew that it would be the perfect piece to complement the midi skirt. I…

Bohemian Style with Chicwish
It is no secret that I love Free People. I wrote an entire blog post about some of my favorite Free People items. There’s something about the free-spirited bohemian style that just sparks something in me. They do have some great items, but the costs are a little splurgy for me. That was why I was so excited when Chicwish reached out about a collaboration. After checking out their website, I realized that many of their items had the same boho vibes as Free People. The only difference is that Chicwish sells their items for half the price! I had seen quite a few other bloggers and influencers posting and…

7 Different Country Outfits
County Fair Season has kicked off here in Wisconsin! I’m not sure when the actual first county fairs take place, but my brother showed one of his steers at a fair last weekend, so I know that we are officially in the swing of things! I usually only go to one county fair that takes place in August, but I wanted to get this post up for anyone who might be attending an earlier fair and needs some inspo for what to wear. If you’re not much of a fair-goer, any of these looks could work for a country concert too! And so I give you 7 different country outfits…

I Finally Bought a Pair of Boyfriend Jeans!
I finally found a pair of boyfriend jeans that I love! I know, I know.. I’m friggin’ late to the party on this one. Boyfriend jeans are certainly nothing new. They have been around for a few years now, but they can take some getting used to if you haven’t tried them before. I have a pretty extensive collection of skinny jeans that I pull from almost every day. Going from a super tight fit to a purposely looser fit can be an adjustment for sure. I had actually bought at least three other pairs that I wound up returning before I stuck with this pair!  For some reason, I…

Lightweight White Tops for Summer
A few weeks ago, a manufacturer who sells on Amazon reached out to me about reviewing some items on Amazon and in exchange they would send me the items for free! I’m always a little skeptical about offers like this because I’m never sure what the product offering is or what the quality will be like. This time, however, I decided to say yes to reviewing their products.  I figured that if I really didn’t like the item that I received, I could just send it back to them. I also promised myself that if I received an item and wasn’t 100% in love with it, I would NOT give…
