My Summer Uniform

Happy Wednesday friends!

Y’all know summer is my favorite season! This outfit is my summer uniform; a light weight dress, easy sandals and a hat is literally the perfect look for a Florida summer. Basically all I wear in the summer next to swimwear, shorts and t-shirts.

This whole look is LC Lauren Conrad for Kohl’s and super affordable. The whole look is under $50 and easy to wear everywhere this summer! I hope y’all love it.

We are working on summer plans and I would love to know what you all are planning for the summer. Are you traveling? Where are you going? Let me know in the comments!

Spring Fashion Florals

Happy Wednesday Babes!

Summer fashion is headed your way but I have another cute spring dress from LC Lauren Conrad that is cute for spring and summer. Y’all know I love soft pastels and this light yellow is something a little different for me! I love the balloon sleeve detail and floral print paired with these super sweet block heels and the cutest wicker heart bag. I love this for something a little more fancy, again great for weddings or brunch.

Y’all know I love dresses for spring and summer, I practically live in them because it is just to hot in Florida to bother with anything else. This is is another super light easy to wear fit, as we get more into summer you’ll definitely see more bold colors and prints from me as that’s what I love for summer! Maxi and t-shirt dresses to as well as graphic T’s y’all know I love my t-shirts!

What is your go to summer wardrobe? Let me know!

Stay @ Home Chic

Happy Wednesday babes!

Y’all know I love London Times, their dresses are so chic and classic and perfect for every occasion! I wanted to share this super cute white number especially for all my future brides out there or any of you girls looking for a great white summer dress!

As we continue to spend most of our time at home I wanted to showcase this look at home and how I thing you can still dress up and be at home, do whatever makes you feel beautiful and comfortable! Are you wearing mostly lounge wear or wearing normal day to day clothing as you were going to work?

When we are able to go out again this is the perfect dress for brunch, shopping, or just running around it’s so put together but would be great with sandals too!

Quarantine Tie-Dye

Happy Wednesday friends!

I hope you’re hanging in there with all of this going on! Here is FL the state is slowly opening in Phase 1 but we are still doing as much as we can by staying home and only going out for essentials.

Needless to say I’ve been spending a lot of time in my lounge wear and have jumped on the tie-dye train and purchased some pieces to lounge around and work from home in! I’ve been loving these pullovers from American Eagle as well as several pairs of their comfy shorts from Aerie as well! They have had some great sales going on and amazing pieces for this season, highly recommend checking them out!

Being at home I’ve also starting shooting some in my apartment since we are all at home right now. I also wanted to share one of the tie-dye pieces that I’ve purchased recently and check in with y’all and see how you’re doing! Let me know below!

Powder Blue Look-Talking Easter Activities & Spring Fashion

Welcome to quarantine week 4 for me anyway, I’ve been working from home for 4 weeks now and we still have a while month to go at least right now with the stay at home order.

With Easter coming up this Sunday and most of us will still be indoors depending on where you live. I wanted to share another fun easy look for Easter as well as some fun activities you can still do while social distancing.

First off this is one of my favorite looks from LC Lauren Conrad’s recent collection for Kohl’s! I’m loving the pastel powder blue and the fun white accessories! This dress comes in several colors and is super comfortable and would be a perfect option for Easter inside or outdoor activities as home! The heels are super comfortable and fun along with the white cat eye sunnies, and floral bag perfect for spring and summer! Let’s all cross our fingers we have an actual summer this year with all of this! Those of you with yards and pools, enjoy it! I’m totally jelly! Living in an apartment with no porch I’ve been taking a daily walk to get some time outside.

As for Easter activities those of you with little ones or something fun just for family members now you can still do Easter egg hunts inside or in yard and get creative! I personally always make Travis an Easter basket, I love giving gifts so that’s something I always do and I hide eggs around the apartment with clues that will lead him to the basket, just something fun! You can also still do brunch or a big breakfast, cook some fun things and dig in!

However you celebrate this Sunday I hope you enjoy it!

Blush Pink Spring Look

Happy Wednesday Friends!

On Wednesdays we wear pink and I am so ready for spring and all the pastels! I’ve been living for this faux wrap dress from LC Lauren Conrad and I want it in every color! This dress is perfect for all body types with its fit and flare skirt and bubble sleeves it’s super flattering and fun for all seasons! It comes in several colors and is available at Kohl’s. This dress definitely runs true to size, if you’re curvier I recommend sizing up one, but I found my regular size large fit perfect!

I paired it with this Chanel dupe and LC Lauren Conrad block heels. This is a great look for Valentine’s, Easter, bridal showers, brunch, it’s a great dress to have in your closet! It can definitely be worn with some ballet flats and jean jacket or dressed up like this!

My Golden Birthday!-Turning 28 On The 28th!

Today is my Golden Birthday! 28 on the 28th!

I had the idea about 6 months ago that I really wanted to celebrate this huge milestone and special birthday! My man made my dream a reality and set up a gold shoot with my photographer Kate for me! Thanks babe! I’ve been reflecting over the past several months on my life and how I’ve evolved and grown and I’m so proud of who I am and have become!

I’ve learned several things over my 28 years and my biggest one is love yourself, it doesn’t matter what others think! No matter what size I’ve learned to love myself in that moment! Embrace who you are and enjoy where you are in life right now! Don’t wait to enjoy things!

I’ve learned it’s quality over quantity. I’m thankful for the relationships I’ve built, my family and I are the tightest bound unit along with my relationship with my fiance, he’s my biggest supporter next to my parents, and the amazing friends I have in my life, I’m blessed! I have people that would do anything for me and me them I don’t need tons of friends I need a few AMAZING friends and I have some of the BEST!

I’ve learned to take care of myself, I don’t need to go to every event, please everyone, it’s my life and I need to make myself happy, I can’t make everyone happy all the time. It’s helped me learn balance, I’m still working on it but it’s key.

Lastly one big thing I’ve learned it to let go of negativity, someone is negative you don’t need them around. Someone is rude to you, leave. You don’t need to subject yourself to something that makes you unhappy or uncomfortable. Life if to short to be be unhappy so I’m making choices in my life that are providing true happiness and positive moments!

28 is going to be so so good to me I can feel it! Big changes are coming and I can’t wait for it!

xoxo

Wedding Wednesday: Starting Christmas Traditions

Happy Wedding Wednesday Friends!

This is our last Christmas engaged and after 8 years together have yet to ever send a Christmas card out! I was determined this year to take Christmas card photos and send out a card! I love how every family has their own special holiday traditions and I wanted photos and a card to be one of ours. I think that once a year it is so important to get together dress up and take photos! Maybe it’s the blogger and photographer in me but I love photos and capturing moments! I think it’s super important and to print them too!

Anyway this year we started out tradition and took our first Christmas photos over at Rollins College, seriously one of the most beautiful places in Orlando! We went for more of a classic theme with simple black, white, and silver! I absolutely love architecture and greenery and this place encompassed that perfectly! We are sending out our cards this week from Minted and I already printed some photos for the apartment from Nation’s Photo Lab! Y’all print your photos and cherish the memories!

Happy 2 weeks till Christmas from the soon to be McGibbon’s xoxo

Must Have Wrap Dress

This post didn’t go live when it was supposed to originally so I wanted to make sure you all got to check out one of my favorite pieces for fall and basically all year long, is this wrap dress from Old Navy! They have new prints and colors for fall and I need them all!

I love the attention to detail on this dress, the fabric is non wrinkle and there is an extra clasp at the top to cover up as much as you prefer, a curvy girl’s dream because low cut dress are always an issue! This dress is perfect to wear anywhere whether it be to work or out for lunch it’s the most comfortable dress you will find! I highly recommend grabbing one as it would be great with a denim jacket and booties or how I wore here with a block sandal and clear bag! This dress is a definite yes!

I paired the dress with my favorite block sandals from Old Navy that y’all have seen several times along with a clear bag from Amazon that I’ve loved for a while! Make sure to check them out!

Give me all the emerald, cobalt, and amber colors! I love the richness of the colors and how they compliment fall fashion! Let’s talk about another thing I love…jumpsuits! I love a good jumpsuit and this one took me by surprise from Old Navy! I love the amber/mustard color and the polka-dot print! Jumpsuits just like dresses are a great one and done, one complete outfit in one piece, my perfect scenario!

I love that this jumpsuit in particular is a light weight material and can still be worn from summer into fall I paired this below more for summer with a block heel sandal and clear bag perfect for brunch or shopping, I’m obsessed with this look! I also love that you can take this into fall with a denim jacket and some flats and cross body bag. The jumpsuit was $25 on sale and the sandals I’ve been wearing all summer also from Old Navy and the bag is from Amazon because they kill it in the accessory department!
