Restyled: Shaker Knit Sweater + Plaid Shirt Dress
I hope you all had a good weekend and you’re not too down about the fact that it’s back to work today. The outfit I’m sharing today is not just a restyling of the sweater and of the plaid shirt dress, but it’s also kind of a throwback look since it’s kind of 90s looking. I wanted to wear this blue and green plaid shirt dress to work last week, but I knew with it’s lightweight material that I’d need a sweater since I would most likely be cold. Instead of wearing it with a cardigan, I decided to wear my shaker knit sweater over it. I wore sweater tights and…

The Most Important Investment To Make? Improving Your Health
Pexels We often dream about how we might one day invest in real estate, a business enterprise, or perhaps simply purchasing stock in that company we feel the most interested in. But sometimes, the most fundamental aspects of our life will be that which is most important. For example, our health is always a pressing consideration that needs our maintenance and love, no matter how old we are, what culture we come from, what our political leanings are or how well we rose from bed in the morning. While it would be ideal for optimal health maintenance to be free, of course, we all know this isn’t the true case…

Irish Cheese Toasties
Happy St. Patrick’s Day to all who are celebrating! I went out with some friends last night after we watched Captain Marvel (enjoyed the movie and loved the character, btw) and had dinner. It wasn’t as crowded out as I had anticipated for the holiday weekend which was good for me. When we were deciding whether to go out to the bar or not, my friend said ” Jamie hates crowds and bad parking” and I said “Both are true”. Seriously, if a place has no parking or it’s difficult to find parking, it’s going to be hard for me to say yes. When browsing online recently looking for a…

Green Two-Toned Sherpa
We got a glimpse of spring yesterday with temperature soaring in to the 70s! It was beautiful and sunny out, but today we’re back to the 50s. Since tomorrow is St. Patrick’s Day I thought this was the perfect opportunity to share this green two-toned sherpa sweatshirt. It’s the perfect option for a casual St. Patrick’s look. It’s slightly cropped. I mean, it won’t show off your stomach, but it hits right at the hip. I wore it with black leggings because it didn’t really bother me that the top didn’t cover my behind. And I finished off the look with my new grey Keds slip ons. My old ones…

Green & White Flowers
I was scrolling through my camera roll on my phone and I came across this close up shot I took of green and white flowers back in 2017. I don’t really know why I took this photo. Maybe it was for my Instagram stories to show off a new bouquet I got. I don’t really know, but I thought I would share it on here for a flashback Friday, #fbf. And since St. Patrick’s Day is this weekend it seemed only fitting! Have a great Friday! I’ve felt so off this week and even yesterday I had to think for a minute about what day it was and was happy when…

Pastel Orchid Cozy Sweater
Were you affected by the Instagram/Facebook outage yesterday? It was so annoying! By the evening, I was able to post a photo (after it “loading” for 2 hours) and my stories took a few hours to upload as well. I’m hoping today it’s back to normal! As we inch closer to spring, I only have a limited amount of time left to share cozy, warm looks. Today is another cozy outfit that has good colors for spring, like my yellow and pink color block sweater I shared the other day. I love pastels so when I saw this pastel orchid cozy, fleece-y sweatshirt with multicolor pastel bands at the wrist…

The Easy Way To Modernize A Period Property
Period properties are very much in fashion now. Even though they usually need a bit of work doing to them, especially if the previous owners haven’t kept their home in a good condition, it’s usually worth it as investing well into the home can help push its value up. When you do buy a period property, you will have two main choices: do you stick to a vintage style and bring it back to its original former glory, or should you revamp it and bring it into the 21st century? Most homeowners decide to go with the latter option. This is usually the most favorable option as period properties that…

Carrot Cake
Carrot cake sometimes gets a bad rap and I don’t know why, because I think it’s delicious and underrated! I’m planning on making this carrot cake this weekend so I thought I would share some photos of a time I made it a while ago. Plus, I think it would be a great dessert for an upcoming dinners you’re having this spring such as Easter. I use Pioneer Woman’s carrot cake recipe, but I don’t make cream cheese frosting – I just use whipped cream which is what I prefer. The other change I make is that I mix white and brown sugar instead of only using white. Oh, I…
