Tuesday Shoe Day

As promised here’s my first annual “Tuesday Shoe Day” (props to my friend Krista for this cute idea, btw!).

This Tuesday it’s all about the tennis shoes! Okay, maybe it’s all about the tennis shoes all the time really because I am a tennis shoe addict!

Today I’m sharing these ADORABLE Adidas! I love the color because it’s girly & perfect for spring/summer! I also love how there’s touches of white in it as well! These are super comfy and will match with any neutral color!

I got them in Boston and thank jesussss I did because I planned to wear these $300 wedge sneakers in New York and Ryan (in natural Ryan fashion) forced me to put the adidas in his backpack because he was convinced I wasn’t going to make it in the overpriced wedge fury top sneakers. Y’all … he is always right … I didn’t even make it to our plane in the airport with these wedges on! I changed into the tennis shoes & never looked back 😂

Lucky for me these aren’t your normal sneaker they are super cute & looked adorable with my black LuLus & cute pink sweater!

Lesson learned, buy the adidas!

Zappos | $85

Any tennis shoe under $100 is a winner to me! Happy Tuesday y’all!

spring cleaning : body style

Hey y’all!! I’m officially back from our tip and am working on getting back in the swing of things! Why is that always so tough after a vacay!?

I know one thing, it’s officially time to get my ass in gear! LITERALLY! Starting Monday I’m getting back in the mode of eating right & starting a new workout program! I am pretty good at getting in the gym every morning butttt my eating habits lately have not been my best! I tend to have free for all’s when I know “oh I’m on vacation” or “oh we have this and this going on so there’s no point in making the good choice now if I’ll be cheating then”.

Anyway, as I’ve gotten older I know what works for my body and what doesn’t. It’s just getting the willpower to hunker down and do it! I have the type of body that I could go to the gym 4837363 times a week and that doesn’t help! It’s allll what I put in my mouth and I have to be really dedicated and accountable to knock the 5 pounds off! It’s the first few weeks that really suck getting into that habit, but once I get over the hump I’ll do pretty good!

I’m posting today to share one simple little trick that always works when it’s time for me to get in gear and helps get me excited about!

NEW WORKOUT + WELLNESS ACCESSORIES

yes this is totally stupid and materialistic but it’s the truth & I’ll own it! Here’s a list of a few things I’ve recently purchased and want because they are cute and will put me in a good mood when it’s time to workout or eat right in cute yoga clothes!

Flower Water Bottle | $20

Sports Bra | $14

Leggings | $19

Leggings | $19

Send me your well wishes come monday! If y’all have any fun tips or tricks y’all use to get motivated send them my way!

Lace + Bell Sleeve Top

Hayyy! I’m currently flying from Nola -> Boston but wanted to hop on because I’ve been super excited about sharing this top with y’all!

I’ve seen this top of top on various different sites for an expensive price so I was so happy when I found it for $24. I had purchased it in Black for work and got sooo many compliments, which meant I obviously had to go for the white too!

Forever 21 | $24

This can be styled with jeans and a dressy shoe or even jean shorts and flats! I tried to take a photo for you guys with shorts and wanted to show y’all a normal jean shirt but I was in the midst of packing for the trip and I forgot! I also took another photo close up to try to show y’all the sleeve!

Linking my shoes for both pictures below for y’all in the slider!

I’m going to try to post while on vacay but also want to spend time with the fam so if I’m M.I.A. I’ll be back when I get home!

Wrappin’ shirts

Okay – so, in this mix of hot one day cold the next weather good ol’ Louisiana brings us I am loving this whole wrap shirt deal. I love this because I can put a cami or bralette under and tie it up and it totally dresses up your normal pair of lulu leggings that I flaunt around in the grocery to or in the house.

I don’t know if I really need an excuse to love these? I just do. I’m keeping this short and sweet because to be honest, I’m tired!

My exact shirt is sold out AT THE MOMENT but I’m linking it below incase it comes back. In the meantime I also found two even cuteeeer ones from Abercrombie on sale, sooo your welcome.

Abercrombie & Fitch |$22

These also come in burgundy and black!

Forever 21 | $15

It looks like they are taking pre-orders for this shirt again so I would get it while the gettin’ is good! Especially for the price!

And just Incase because I always get questions, linking pants below the photo!

lululemon | $98

Hope you all have a fabulous rest of the week!

Dusty Rose Slip-ons

Okay, running in the mall yesterday totally gave me spring fever. I’ve had my eyes on these Abercrombie jeans so I decided after work to just run in and grab them …. omg, SPRING FEVER! I am officially ready for spring, everywhere in the mall has such cute stuff (I’m not normally a mall girl but I’ve decided to just roll with it because, why not?!).

So, before I get sidetracked and don’t stick to the script let’s get to it – while buying this jeans in Abercrombie (which by the way I think I was the oldest person in there minus parents who were with their 15 year olds, but I just decided maybe people would think I was getting clothes for my 15 year old? And maybe I didn’t care because I was totally reliving my glory days of working there and reopening the store after Katrina. RIP Abercrombie Chelsey circa 2005) Anyway, I found the CUTEST slip on shoes that were under $40 and I thought they were totally worth sharing with you guys!

These will look so cute with jeans or jean shorts over the summer and I’m becoming a big fan of slip-ons because they are SO easy to just obviously, slip-on & head out the door!! Plus, I absolutely love the little tie bow on them! It makes them different then a boring old one strap slip!

I found them from two stores and am liking them below the photos!

Abercrombie & Fitch | $38

American Eagle | $34

I almost kinda prefer the second pairs shape & color but tough tooties because I won’t get two of the exact same pairs! …. or will I?! 😏

Seein’ Stars

Hey y’all! Sharing the cutest star top with you guys today & some of my other favorite star picks right now!

I got this from my favorite little store on Metairie road MIA by now I kinda got it a long time ago but I had been waiting to post because I wasn’t in the spring mode yet! Last time I went she did have a few so ya never know!

I also found it on another website but hey do only have larger left!!

I’m loving the star trend right now! It’s fun but we obviously know it won’t be found for life! That’s why I do love it incorporated with lace! It’s like they are there but they’re not 😂 I am in loveeee with the top below & it’s sleeves!

ASOS | $60

Shoptiques | $48

I’m also sharing this star dress with y’all because, I WANT! And totally wish I had somewhere to wear it!

LuLus | $59

Also loving this sweat shirt, it’s in my shopping cart and would look SO cute with a pair of jean shorts! Or white jeans! It has vented holes in it so this is majorly my kind of summer sweater!

Express | $59

The shirt below is sheer & full of stars! It’s sexy and is low cut so I would wear this for girls night or date night! I’d style this with a pair of tight black jeans (either skinny or bell bottom) or even a pair of leather leggings and a one strap heel!

ASOS | $64

Hope y’all have a statin’ weekend … don’t know what that means but whatever 😂

Spring has Sprung!

Hey y’all! I have been blog MIA because we were on our little annual ski trip and I totally wanted to disconnect from having my phone in my hand 24/7 so I could enjoy my vacation with the boys!

When we got back home I was greeted by the warm Louisiana weather and a few packages filled with all things pink of course!!

I’ve been eyeing up these earrings because I know they will be the perfect summer staple that I will be able to rewear/restyle with different outfits! The price ($38) is super reasonable to me for a good pair of statement earrings! They are from bauble bar but are sold out … HOWEVER, I still found them and linked them below for you guys 😜

Nordstrom | $38

I’m also OBSESSED with these freaking feather slip ons!!! Of course they are sold out. But Chinese laundry has another pair that is just as cute with tons of colors, on sale!

I’m actually ordering the black pair because I think they will be great for work!! And comfortable!!! They are from 6PM for $38 and you can find them HERE.

Those were my goodies I came back to & I think I can officially say I am ready for spring! Although it came a tad early this year and I do have 2 more cold trips coming up, I know everyone’s into the warm weather goodies at the moment …. so, I’ll welcome it!!!

Keystone was a blast, skiing with the boys is always fun and the little town was so cute! The mountain was smaller than where we went last year resulting in more steep trails, I. AM. A. HUGE. NINNY. and am apparently a very “controlled” skier (a.k.a. I keep it really boring & play it extremely safe) so the boys fussed at me a little extra this year to speed it up 😂

Ryan snow boards & 100% knows what he’s doing & it’s funny because last year Hayden wanted to be behind me and do what I did and this year he wanted absolutely nothing to do with going slow or being behind me! He was like “come on grandmaw” and plowed down the mountain 100 miles a minute! I wish I was that fearless haha but all I can think about when I start getting some real speed is omg what if I break something!!

I think next year me and Hayden will take a lesson because we both need to find our happy medium!!

Sharing some pictures from our trip with you guys and I am off to work & to do some content planning for the upcoming weeks!!!

Happy hump day y’all!

Tie-up Toppin’ it!

Happy Tuesday people!!! Yall, how cute is this top from TOBI ? I know I have my cold weather vacays coming but I wanted to share this with y’all before it’s too late to get your hands on!

Bell Sleeve Blouse | $50

(On sale today 2/27 for $29 with code: SUNFLOWER)

I’m obsessed with the bell sleeves & the little tie up! It comes in two other colors below & it is deff the perfect shirt for a little transition into the warmer weather because it can be worn with jeans or shorts!

I’m definitely thinking it would be super cute with jean shorts for summer! I know I’ll be wearing it with a bathing suit top underneath for any beach vacays I’ll be on over the summer or probably sport it on Ryan’s boat!

To be perfectly honest that’s probably the only way I’ll be wearing it because I don’t particularly love showing my stomach on the reg! Unless I’m in a beachy type setting pahaha! Trying to keep things age appropriate here & I willl be turning 30 soon so that sucks 😂🤷🏼‍♀️ but if I had a smoking hot bod and/or was still 25 I’d be all about that life don’t get me wrong!

Regardless, however you want to wear it, its freakin the cutest!! I did pair it with wide leg jeans to snap a shot of it here & totally don’t have on shoes! #dontjudgeme

Linking it again HERE! And you can also shop my bralette from urban outfitters  (which is the BEST & CUTEST everrrr) by clicking HERE on one of my older posts! They come in tons of colors!!!

I’m also linking some gold layered necklaces from Baublebar! This place always have the cutest jewelry, I’m addicted!

Two layers $30 | Three layers $42
