Today, I wanted to share some of my favorite fashion trends for this winter! First off, I love that lipstick is so in. I love the added color to a woman’s face and the way it makes those pretty lips pop. It makes every woman look so glamorous. I also love that it keeps me from looking like a pale white snowman during the winter months by adding color to my face. 🙂

I’m also love love loving plaid. This is definitely not a new thing for me. I’ve been dressing in plaid since…well, birth. Maybe it’s a southern thing? I don’t know, but I do know that I love how popular it has become and that it is so easy to find. I’ve never owned a plaid jacket but was determined to find one this season. I finally found the perfect one! It is partially fleece lined and partially quilted inside. Best of all, it is very pregnancy friendly! I am 20 weeks along and still have some room to grow! This is a jacket I will have for years. I’m kind of obsessed!

Pink Blazer

blazer: c/o oasap here

shorts: Levis c/o thred UP

sandals: target

I saw this adorable pink blazer and had to have it. The ruffle was the final detail that sold me on it. I also love the lace on the cuffs. It is a perfect blazer that can be worn in the summer or fall. I love versatile pieces.

My sister came to stay with me and Hampton over the weekend while Ryan was out of town on a business trip. We watched movies, ate ice cream and stayed up late talking. I’ve missed her so much since she moved to college. She is only 45 minutes away, but I went from seeing her almost every day to about once or twice a month. It’s been so weird not having her around as much. I definitely enjoyed my time with her and Hampton didn’t hate it either. He loves his Mac Mac!

Saturday, we went to my brother’s house for a cookout. I love getting Hampton and Gage (my nephew) together. They are so much fun. They are starting to play together a little more and it is so funny watching Gage try to figure Hampton out. We had a great time and I can’t wait to do it again, soon.

The Only Picture I Regretted Taking // iMO

July 21, 2014

This post may contain affiliate links. I was given products as compensation for an honest review. Opinions are my own.

…was the one I didn’t take. Cliche? Well, Hi. My name is Logan and I am addicted to taking pictures. My addiction has grown since having Hampton. It’s really becoming a problem. Ryan has had to empty my phone’s pictures to my computer 3 times in the last 8 months. Do you know how many photos your iphone can hold? A lot. That’s not including the photos on my camera.

Honestly, I’m not ashamed. I meant what I said. I have never regretted a single picture. In fact, I usually leave a moment thinking, I should have taken more. I want to capture every expression and movement of my son because I was to remember everything. I don’t want to forget a single detail.

If you’ve been around my blog for a while, you know that I have a love for all things pretty. iMO camera straps have a collection of fashionable and stylish straps that make carrying around that camera a little more bearable and even fun! I absolutely love my new strap and have been using it for nearly a week now. It is comfortable to wear and extremely good quality. It’s much softer than the strap that came with my camera, plus, it’s pretty. iMO has a great variety of straps that will fit any personality. I had a really hard time picking one out because I wanted all of them. Check them out on Facebook!

This vest is so much fun. I am loving the crochet look this summer. I love this vest because I can throw it on over any of my tanks and it adds that extra layer without making me sweat bullets. I am in Alabama, you know.

Tips for Being a Great Wedding Guest

July 18, 2014

If you’re anything like me, you’ve been invited to many weddings this year. So many people love to get married in the summertime. I absolutely love weddings and celebrating love. Here are some tips on how to be the perfect wedding guest. In case you were wondering.

RSVP by the specified date.

Don’t Complain. Even if the food is terrible, the dress is ugly, and everyone around you is complaining, no one likes a complainer.

Take a gift. Definitely use their registry to insure that it is something they will actually like/want/use.

Don’t be late. Ever.

Don’t wear white. Although I love wearing white in the summertime, you should never wear it to a wedding. This may seem trivial, but I’ve already seen it done at a couple of weddings this season.

shoes: DSW old

Now on to appropriate attire. I love this chiffon dress en creme. Some may say not to wear tan/cream, but I think it is definitely acceptable. It’s light and airy and perfect for those hot outdoor weddings.

Of course Hampton had to get in a picture!

Have you attended any weddings this summer? Do you have other tips on being a great wedding guest?

Floral + Lavender

June 27, 2014

purse: c/o oasap (here)

tank: old navy

shorts: c/o oasap (here)

I have been needing a new shoulder purse so bad! They are perfect for traveling and so easy to carry. They free up your arms making them really convenient. This lavender purse is so adorable and it’s the perfect size. Not too big, not too small! The teal floral shorts are so comfortable and I love the bright colors. They are perfect for the summer months. I love fun shorts.

Speaking of traveling, Ryan and I are on our way home from Chicago probably as you’re reading this. We came here on Wednesday and have been here for a conference, but we came a little early so that we would have plenty of extra time to explore the city. We have had so much fun and I can’t wait to tell you all about our trip next week! I’ll also include a photo of where I am writing this post because I’m swooning. Two words: window seat. Overlooking downtown Chicago. I may never leave. Happy Friday, friends! I hope you have a great weekend! Au revoir!

Floral Pants + Floppy Hat

Pants: c/o oasap (here)

tank: target

straw floppy hat: c/o oasap (here)

I’m seriously in love with these pants. They are so comfortable it’s like wearing pajamas, except I’m actually dressed. Meaning, these are the perfect mom pants, ladies! The hat is so adorable I can’t even stand it. I’ve been looking for a straw floppy hat to take with me to the beach in a couple of weeks and then I found this one! It is amazing. It also comes in several colors. I love the bow on the side. It gives it the perfect touch.

This outfit is getting me in the mood for a beach vacation! 2 weeks and counting! It can’t get here soon enough! Laying in the sun on a sandy beach with un bon livre is just what I need in my life.

Are you going to the beach this summer? What are your travel plans?
