Happy Friday Darling!
I have been on vacation this week and it has been nice and relaxing at the like, although the trip certainly didn’t begin this way! My family had a trip planned to a lake in Virginia for the week, but when we finally got there after a 6 hour drive, we found out the lake had blue algae. Ugh! So we quickly came up with a plan B and drove to a lake in Maryland. We ended up getting the last house available on the lake! On our way to Maryland we can across this amazing sunflower farm so of course we had to make a quick little stop.

Hi Darling!

Thought I would jump on the blog today to share my new favorite Summer tops. These smocked tube tops are so cute and perfect for Summer. You can wear them with shorts, jeans, or skirts! I paired mine with jean shorts and sneakers but the options are limitless. I think this weekend I’m going to pair one with jean shorts and layer it with a kimono.

Hot Pink Romper

It’s almost Friday Darling!

I am so in love with this hot pink romper I can hardly stand it! It’s the perfect Pinterest Look for Less. I’ve been having so much fun finding outfits on Pinterest and recreating them on a budget. Would you believe me if I told you the romper on the left is $98 and mine is only $14?! It’s true! I think I’ll continue to do these kind of posts, what do you think?

I styled this hot pink romper similarly to @dressupbuttercup by wearing a pair of white shoes. Rompers are the best because they’re literally one and done!

I scored this amazing Express romper from Gabe’s for only $14. Check out my Instagram to see all of my favorite finds from Gabe’s!

Happy Friday Darling!

Finally, the weekend is here and Spring has finally Sprung! I have been LOVING this warm weather we have been having recently. Any excuse to wear a cute outfit, right?

Today I’m writing about my new Spring outfit from my favorite local mobile boutique, Mack and Mario. I stopped by the traveling boutique last week and found the CUTEST pieces. If you are always on the hunt for the latest styles like myself, you will be overjoyed with Mack and Mario’s truck full of treasures.

A white top is a must-have for Spring. This top is a light sweatshirt material and has fabulous flutter sleeve details that add a fun element. I paired this top with the button up distressed denim jeans. Distressed jeans are another staple for my Spring wardrobe. I love the wash of these jeans because they can easily be dressed up or down. Not only does Mack and Mario have amazing clothes, but I also love the accessories. I accessorized my look with a pair of gold earrings to really make a statement.

I’ve grown up with a family business, which makes shopping local so important to me! Among the many benefits of shopping local, you are supporting your community and people’s dreams. Mack and Mario is such a fun boutique that is worth checking out.

Mack and Mario travels around the greater Pittsburgh area. Check out where they will be next and shop their products through their business’s Instagram.

Mack and Mario’s owner Lori, has some impressive styling experience and travels the Pittsburgh area in her fashion truck to local events and private parties!  You can Reserve the Mack and Mario fashion truck for your next home party! You provide the wine and Mack and Mario will come right to your door to style you and your girlfriends. Hostesses of the party will even get a discount. I don’t know about you, but a private shopping party sounds like so much fun!

Styling a Denim Jacket

Happy Wednesday Darling!

Is it just me or does this sudden warm Spring weather make you want to dress in all of your favorite pink pieces, too?! One of my Spring must-have items is a denim jacket. How CUTE is this pink and white striped denim jacket? I got it from Versona and love it SO much.

I’m teaming up with Versona to share the three ways that I’m planning on styling my denim jacket this Spring.

1). With Shorts

One way I love styling a denim jacket is with shorts and a tee. I feel like a denim jacket really pulls it all together. In my outfit above, I wore a plain white blouse with a pair of high waisted shorts. For an extra layer and a monochromatic look, I added the pink denim jacket.

2). With a T-shirt Dress

My second go-to outfit come Spring and Summer is a t-shirt dress. These are my favorite because they will make you look put together will little to no effort at all. Try wearing a denim jacket with a t-shirt dress and a pair of converse. For a fun twist, put the denim jacket around your waist.

3.) With Colored Pants

Colored pants like olive are so popular this season and go perfectly with a pair of flats, a plain shirt, and a denim jacket. If your denim jacket is solid like this one, try adding a pair of printed shoe to add a little something to your look.

What are your favorite ways to style your jean jacket? I’d love to hear from you!

Perfect Swimsuits

Suit

Good Morning Darling!

Happy Spring! I cannot believe that it is almost April. I went on a super quick trip to Orlando, Fl. last week and had to bring along the perfect swimsuit. I love that it’s a one piece but has two-piece like cutouts, too!

I thought I would share some of the trending swimsuit styles that we will be seeing a lot of this summer at the pool. Below are a few popular trends for 2019 and the suits that I personally can’t wait to wear under $50!

1.) Cutouts

Cutouts are definitely trending this year and this trend is carrying over into swimwear. I love this trend because it it can be appropriate to wear on your family vacation but the cutouts still show off a little. This suit below is too cute with it’s high waist look is polka dots.

2.) High Waist Bottoms

High waist has been becoming more and more popular and this year it is going to be all over the beach. This style is flattering especially with a longer swim suit top. I love the suit below because the ruffles add such a fun element. I wore this suit in Florida last week, too!

Purple High Waisted Two Piece

3.) Scallop Details

The scallop details on swimsuits are everywhere this year. I have been seeing scallops on both one and two piece suits and both options are adorable. The scallops add a unique embellishment and put a twist on a classic look. Olive is one of my favorite colors and I love a good one piece so I really gravitated to the suit below.

Scalloped One Piece

4.) Tie Front Details

Tie Front and Bow Details are popping up everywhere this swim season. This style is fun because it adds a little something to your suit without being over the top.

Activewear on a budget

Activewear
Bra | Leggings | Shoes | Jacket

Happy Monday Darling!

I’m guilty of wearing activewear for a stylish look on days that I have no intentions of actually working out. But things have changed and I have decided to run the Pittsburgh Half Marathon this year! Every year I think about how awesome it would be to finish a half marathon, but always find a way to talk myself out of it. I tell myself that I don’t have enough time to train or that I am in no shape to be running that far. Then, every year on race day I have serious FOMO. So, I have made running the half in May my goal!

The best part of regularly working out is definitely the cute activewear outfits that go along with it. I am SO in love with this matching set. The purple is such an amazing color and the scallops add such a fun and unique detail. I love a high-waisted legging, so these are perfect. The best part of this outfit is the price. There is nothing better than looking like a million bucks but only spending $60!

My jacket is reversible and has so many pockets. I actually got this Nike jacket from my Stitch Fix box this month. Use this link to get your first Stitch Fix without a styling fee. As for my shoes, I promise that the dad shoe is coming back in style! I love a white chunky sneaker to pair with my leggings.
