Holiday Looks 2024

We are one week out until Christmas…how did that happen?

If you are still in need of some holiday looks RUN to Old Navy, Kohl’s or Abercrombie for all the velvet, sequins, and holiday sparkle! Here are a few looks I threw together for this year. 2024 just got away from me, not sure about anyone else but it came and went fast.

Hope you enjoy and have a great holiday!

Officially Fall!

Happy Fall!

This is as “fall” as it’s getting right now here in Florida, because it’s still super hot!

Hopefully will start to slowly cool off here so I can share some true fall outfits with you, but for now…this is it!

What's Coming in 2023!

Hi Friends!

It’s been a while but I wanted to catch you up and give you some life updates! The holidays were extremely busy and we had quit a few life changes mixed into the last month of 2022 so I took a step back from social to focus on business.

In December Travis was let go from his job in mortgage, if you’re in that industry you get it, he’s making some career changes and helping me while I’m building my business A LOT! So needless to say we are working a lot right now building something that will provide us a lot of freedoms in the future!

Fast forward to the new year, my word for the year is CHANGE as there are many changes I’m hoping to make and see come to fruition this year! I’m focused strongly on my business and creating a healthier and more balanced lifestyle!

As we start to head into February already, wow! I’ll be bringing you all more lifestyle and fashion content along with some business tips and strategies that I’m loving!

Cheers to the new year friends!


End of Q1-Check In!

Happy Wednesday friends!

We are about to enter Q2 already and I’m so excited to be moving ahead and see what’s in store!

In Q1 I made the decision to hire a new business coach and she has been such a pleasure to work with and learn from. I’ve started implementing new systems and practices to better my business and show up more for my clients. I’ve been restructuring how I show up on social media as well and though I haven’t been on IG much lately I’m planning things out to be there more consistently, sometimes we all need a refresh and a reboot! Hi, that’s me!

However looking into Q2 things will be shifting and changing. We will find out if we are staying at our current place or will be considering house hunting…hard to fathom right now! I will also be accepting new clients! So if you are interested in working with me quarter 2 click HERE and fill out our preliminary survey! I would love to work with you in the new quarter to help you show up for your ideal client on social media and free up some of your valuable time by taking over posting for you! I will also be showing up in different ways on social media, so make sure to turn on your post notifications for that! I’m excited for all that 2022 holds still even thought the first few months have been a little bumpy, I’m ready for the challenge!

Now tell me…what are your Q2 business goals? How are you accomplishing them? What might you need help with? Let me know in the comments below!

New Fall & Winter Inspired Fashion

Happy Wednesday friends!

I’m so excited to share this look from LC Lauren Conrad for Kohl’s with y’all today because it’s a good one!

Lauren Conrad’s jeans are some of my favorites and the top I have in a ton of other prints and colors and am obsessed with it! The material is so comfortable and great for everyday! Now the jacket is a must have investment piece, with the zippers and the suede material it’s a perfect finishing touch on a look and this deep blue color is EVERYTHING! I paired the look with these super comfortable black booties and am ready to jet off to a fall festival and enjoy some cooler weather, anyone else?

Check out the look below and let me know what plans you have coming up this month!

Happy First Day of Fall with Zestt Organics

Happy first day of fall y’all!

I’m so excited to share this look with you! I teamed up with Zestt Organics to share their beautiful new lightweight travel wrap in this stunning bronze color way! This outfit is so perfect for fall and I love it for travel as well!

I love Zestt Organics pieces I tend to wear mine lounging around the house or when I’m traveling they are just perfect and cozy and make great gifts as well! I can’t recommend checking them out enough!

Now that it’s officially fall we’ll be pulling out the fall décor here probably this weekend as well as making some fall plans for going to the pumpkin patch and do all the fall things!

I would love to know what y’all what to see fall wise! Fall recipes? Fall décor? You name it! Let me know!

Key Pieces I'm Loving Right Now

Happy Wednesday friends!

Hope you’re having a great week so far!

I wanted to share a fun look from LC Lauren Conrad that I’ll also be taking into fall with me! All these pieces would be great in fall as well just wore different of course!

I’m loving the top and and how it could also be worn with jeans and the same heels and bag. The skirt would be so cute with a sweater and some booties and the accessories would go with a ton of looks for fall as well!

I’m working more on purchasing more basics and items that can we worn all year long and multiple ways as it’s something I haven’t always been good at.

What are your favorite pieces for fall?

Taking My Summer Uniform Into Fall

Happy Wednesday friends and happy September!

It’s so crazy to think we are already into September and getting ready for fall!

It’s still super hot here in Florida so I wanted to share one of my favorite summer uniforms and how I’m taking some of those pieces into fall as well.

Y’all know I love dresses and rompers for summer but I’ve also been loving a form fitting simple top with high waisted shorts. If you’ve been following along I’ve actually shared a few looks like this and they have become one of my go to looks. I usually change up the bag and the shoes depending on where I’m going.

How I’ve paired the outfit here with wedges and cute little bag makes it a great outfit for brunch or shopping, it’s a little more girly and cute. I also love the same pieces with sporty white sneakers and a cross body bag if I’m running errands or know I’ll be walking around. With that being said I’ll be taking several of these pieces into fall with me. The top, shoes, and bag would all be cute with a pair of jeans and a cute jacket or sweater for fall. I’m working on building up my wardrobe basics so that outfit pairing is easier and little more classic.

The shorts, wedges and bag are all from LC Lauren Conrad and let me tell you the shorts I’ve bought in the other colors as well and love them for all sizes. I sized up for a looser fit and love how practical they are. The top is from Loft and again I’ve been buying some great basic tops from Loft, Macy’s and LC Lauren Conrad and they have really worked in my wardrobe for meeting clients, running errands, and everything in between. I just love that they are a little more elevated than just a simple t-shirt.

What are you taking from your summer wardrobe into fall?

Photo Tips & Resources for Blogging and Instagram

Happy Wednesday, friends!

This week here on the blog I wanted to talk about some photo tips and resources that will help any of you content creators out there. Whether you take photos just for social media or use photography on your blog as well or for your business I have some things you could try!

First off having a consistent photo style as a content creator is key. For example whether I have my photographer take my photos or I take them myself they are always in the light and bright style. To achieve this myself I use my own presets which I love when I can’t work with my photographer. You can actually use these presets yourself as well! You can grab them HERE and start using them to better your photos!

Another resource that will help you elevate your photos is my E-book where I discuss how to figure out what content to shoot, how to figure out your style, my process, how to find a photographer that’s right for you, movement and posing and so much more! This resource is for you whether you work with a professional photographer or self shoot your photos! It comes with bonus items and actionable steps and will elevate your photo game! You can grab it HERE and start improving your photos today!

If you have any photo questions let me know in the comments!

Summer 2020 Recap

As summer comes to close even though here in the sunshine state it’s boiling hot, I wanted to give an ode to summer as it is my favorite season next to winter! The whole year has been a bit different but summer especially was different for me and my family! Summer is the time we vacation and visit family up north which is unfortunately on the back burner until regulations change on some things. It’s been a tough season this year.

However some really exciting things have happened this summer! I hired a business coach at the start of summer and she has brought me into a new season of working for myself! This summer all within a couple of month’s Travis lost his job, started an amazing new job, and I left my job to pursue my passion, y’all it’s unreal to think this is our life right now!

So just remember no matter how tough things get there is something better coming! I promise! You just need to believe it!

LC Lauren Conrad- Apartment Refresh Pt. 3

Happy Wednesday Friend!

We are wrapping up the apartment refresh this week here on the blog! Final room we are covering is the bathroom, another room that is super easy to refresh on a budget, think shower curtain, towels, rugs, etc. LC Lauren Conrad has such great option to refresh your bathroom and at great prices too and the quality y’all know if amazing!

I’m a lover of pastels so these pieces really spoke to me! The tropical pastel shower curtain paired with the textured hand towels and the super soft bath mat, highly recommend and again it won’t break the bank!

We live in a one bedroom apartment so when we do have friends over they use our bathroom so we really try to keep it clean and put together and these simple things make it that much nicer of a room.

That concludes our apartment refresh! I had the best time collaborating with LC Lauren Conrad and Kohl’s on this and hope y’all enjoy it and do your own affordable home or apartment refresh!

LC Lauren Conrad- Apartment Refresh Pt. 2

Hi Friends!

Next room on our refresh list and probably one of the most easy in my opinion is the bedroom! LC Lauren Conrad has some amazing bedding options and this white quilt with matching shams is seriously the softest coziest bedding ever! The teal and white throw pillows are perfect accents to the neutral tone of the bedding and I honestly love blue tones because they are so calming!

Bedding sets are probably the easiest and most inexpensive may to refresh your bedroom! Add your own touch with the throw pillows, with color and texture!

I’m also wearing LC Lauren Conrad here, one of my favorite dress styles of hers that comes in a bunch of colors and prints and is perfect for any time of year here in FL. This would be cute with a denim jacket and some booties for fall or with sandals and a straw bag for summer! This would definitely be a staple dress that I recommend you grab!
