Embracing Pastel Gingham in Time for Spring

Snagged this pastel gingham tank from Gordmans last month and am so excited it’s warm enough to wear! As soon as I spotted this multicolor pastel, high neck tank I knew I wanted it.  The colors are so fun  and the piece just screams spring to me.

What a Day of Blogging Looks Like + Biggest Misconceptions

I get a lot of questions about what working from home is like, how I manage my time as a blogger, etc. If you joined my Instagram Live last week, you may have caught a couple of the misconceptions that Tomi and I discussed but I wanted to talk a little more in depth about the amount of work that goes into a blog plus what a day of blogging looks like for me.

One Shoulder Tank

Welcome back! One of my 2017 blogging goals was to start posting four times a week and since we’re five months into the year now, I’m diving in.  Today I’m sharing one of the biggest trends you’ll be seeing this summer: the one shoulder tank.

It’s a Plaid, Plaid World

Writing this while watching basketball on League Pass {as always} and sipping on my new favorite tea, Peach Melba. While I’m so happy for warmer weather, my allergies are less than thrilled. I’m trying to be optimistic and convince myself that it’s actually just from the dust at work still….I’ll let you know how that wishful thinking goes.

I’ve talked about my love for my denim vest before, but just wanted to share once again how big of a wardrobe staple it is for me. During the warmer months, I seem to rotate back and forth between my denim vest and my utility vest. Both are super versatile, easy to tuck away and great pieces during the transition between seasons.

It was pretty much love at first sight with this black shirt from SheIn; I mean hello???? a plaid layer in the back and plaid elbow patches? Sold! I would highly recommend sizing up in this top; I ordered a small and the first time I went to put it on, for these photos, realized that it was seriously tight. Had I sized up to a medium, the placement of the elbow patches would be more of what I envisioned, the low layer in the back would be a little more flowy and overall I’d have more of the tunic look I expected. Size consistency is one thing that can get you when shopping through SheIn so make sure to check the measurements of every item as a small is not always the same small you ordered last month.

The Eiffel Tower detailing on the back of that white top is seriously swoon worthy.

I love the bright red plaid and immediately knew I wanted to pair it with blue or white denim….so I went with both options here. I love how my denim vest looks against the black tee; definitely something I see myself coming back to in the future.
