If you have followed along for even just a short amount of time around here, you probably have already gathered that value and versatility are probably the two key characteristics that I look for in just about everything that I share. That is why I wanted to share this skirt! First of all, it is super affordable – it’s available directly from Shein for only $9! The same skirt is also available on Amazon in a bunch of other prints, but it costs a little more to go that route. (I will link both options throughout this post). What’s more, is that it can easily be transitioned from hot summer…

Fall Runway Trends You’ll Actually WANT to Wear
If you’re anything like me, you appreciate the artistry and quality that goes into designer pieces. Watching a runway show for you (if even from behind a computer screen) is comparable to an art connoisseur taking a stroll through the Louvre. But let’s be real with ourselves… We’d never wear about 99.9% of what we see on the runway in real life. At least not in the way that it’s presented on the runway, even if we’re looking at a ready-to-wear collection. Even though a lot of what is shown on the runway isn’t very realistic in the day-to-day life of a Midwestern girl, most everyday trends do stem from…

Amazon End of Summer Boho Looks
I’m not sure what it is, but there is something about the end of summer that puts me in a boho mood. I think that the natural materials and neutral colors that you typically see in bohemian-inspired pieces transition nicely into bold and rich fall colors. I realized that I have several bohemian inspired looks both from this year and last – many of the pieces coming from Amazon, so I thought that I would round them all up. Here are 6 Amazon end of summer Boho looks. 1. Green Flowy Dress You wouldn’t know it unless you’re up close, but the print on this dress is actually a small…

5 Summer Outfits Under $100
Summer tends to be my favorite season to dress for because here in Wisconsin there are very few climate limitations and you can basically wear whatever you want! Summers here are typically pretty mild and anything over 85 degrees is considered “HOT”! If you’ve ever lived in the South and are reading this you’re probably laughing to yourself and thinking “bless your heart”. But the nice thing about living in a milder climate in the summer is that style-wise, anything goes! We can wear long pants all summer long and not really think twice about it, but at the same time shorts and a tank are totally appropriate as well!…

Current Amazon Summer Favorites
Even though it seems like I have been shopping Amazon more than ever lately, it has been a while since I’ve shared a good Amazon round up. This post is probably well overdue, but I wanted to share what I’ve been loving most for the warmer months from Amazon. I feel like shopping Amazon can sometimes be hard because the product images aren’t always the best representation of the items that actually show up at your doorstep. That is why I like to share winners here occasionally. So here are my current summer faves from Amazon. Floral Kimono I have had this kimono since last year and I still wear…

Fourth of July Outfit Inspo
The fourth of July has to be one of my favorite holidays! I love that it gives us all a reason to celebrate. Also, unlike some other fun holidays like Halloween or Thanksgiving, there is very little that needs to be done to prepare for Independence Day. No wrangling together costumes or preparing a large feast for anyone. For that reason, I feel like it tends to be a fairly stress-free holiday that we are all able to celebrate in whichever manner we deem appropriate. Even though many of the parades and carnivals have been canceled this year, I still plan to celebrate the fourth at a campground with friends…

6 Ways to Wear a Striped Romper from Amazon
If there is one common element that I look for in every article of clothing that I buy, it is versatility. I have a hard time purchasing an item to only wear it one way.

They are so easy to wear and also super comfortable! And the best part – there are so many different ways that you can wear them!

How are we talking about Memorial Day already?! I think most of us can agree that this year has certainly been a whirlwind! Even though we have been forced to slow down because of stay at home orders during this pandemic, this year still seems to somehow be flying by. If Memorial Day has snuck up on you like it has for me, the last thing you have probably thought about is what you are going to wear this weekend. I figured that I would dig back in the archives and round up looks that would work well for this weekend. Most of my Memorial Day outfit inspo looks will…
