Mexican Street Corn Salad
Do you love Mexican Street Corn? It’s so tasty, but sometimes you can’t or don’t want to get corn on the cob. Also, Mexican Street Corn can be a little messy to eat. Enter this salad version. It’s the same delicious flavors and taste but in loose corn form. It is insanely good and I’ve made it a bunch of times now. I base my recipe off of this recipe I found on Pinterest and I basically follow the recipe except I don’t use cilantro (cause I hate it!) and I also skip the red onions. The recipe also serves 12 so I always halve the recipe and have enough to…

Nirvana Black & White
Have you tried the Elizabeth & James perfumes Nirvana Black and Nirvana White? They are so good! I bought them a few years ago in the rollerball sizes for my bff’s birthday and when I smelled how good they were I had to get them in the 1 oz. sizes for myself eventually. They are so good and for a brand that is a bit higher end the prices are actually really reasonable compared to some brands. They both smell amazing on their own, but also amazing layered together. Nirvana White Pure, floral and feminine, Elizabeth and James Nirvana White Eau de Parfum is a soft fragrance that will captivate…

Pastel Striped Sweatshirt
My weekend looks lately have been all about the cozy comfies. I’m so glad that comfy clothes are so stylish these days! Seriously, I wore this grey sweatshirt with pastel color block stripes last weekend with leggings and headband. Then, my friends invited me out to dinner and I didn’t even feel the need to change. Perfect outfit for running errands, hanging around the house, and then going out with friends for dinner. Sweatshirt: American Eagle | Leggings: Express (here) | Headband: Amazon (here) | Shoes: Red Dress Boutique I love the colors of the stripes in this simple sweatshirt. They’re kind of pastel-y, but also great for fall with the…

Multicolor Star Blouse
When I first saw this blouse online I was like “omg so fun!” and then I got it and was like “hmm, I’m not sure about this”. Then, I put it on and was reassured that it was a great idea to get it. I love the all over multicolor star print and the little ruffle details at the wrist. Top: Vici | Pants: Gap | Watch: Caravelle by Bulova | Shoes: Clarks via DSW The print may be a little too busy for some, but I love the colors and the stars are so small that when you see the print from afar it just looks like beautiful colors…

Denim + Sweat Hoodie & Graphic Tee
Happy Friday! I have a somewhat busy weekend ahead – measuring for curtains for my sliding glass door at my condo, moving some clothing over to make the moving easier when I am able to be in there fully, and other home related things. But I am looking forward to sleeping later than 5:30am. So while I am at work today, in work clothes obviously, I’ll be wishing I was in comfy clothes like this outfit I’m sharing today. Leggings, a graphic tank top, and a sweatshirt/denim jacket combo – who wouldn’t want to be in a comfy outfit like that? First, my graphic top. It is a sleeveless top…

Floral Embroidered Sleeve Sweater
We’re almost at the weekend! Just 2 days until we get a little break. This week hasn’t been as busy as last week for me, but I’ve been extra tired this week for some reason so it’s been just as tiring. I really need to start going to bed earlier! Anyway, you all know by now that I love florals so when I saw this floral embroidered sleeve sweater it was an instant “add to cart”. The light pink of the sweater has a slightly mauve tone and I love it. And tons of other people loved it too because the sweater sold out before I could share it with you…
