    Structured Canvas Crossbody Bag

    April 23, 2020 /

    When I saw this structured canvas crossbody bag and it’s insanely affordable price, I ordered it right away. It’s the perfect light colored bag for spring and summer. When we can actually go somewhere that requires a bag! I love the size of this one and the beige canvas and tan/cognac trim. You can hold it by the hand with the top handle or attach the shoulder strap to make it a shoulder bag or crossbody bag. Bag: Vici | Top: Old Navy | Jeans: LC Lauren Conrad via Kohl’s | Shoes: Steve Madden via DSW (here) I wore the bag with a multicolored striped long sleeve tee, jeans, and…

    Panther Faux Leather Bag

    March 31, 2020 /

    I love a good statement bag, but they’re usually too loud or crazy for me to invest money in. How often would I really wear it out? I’ve written in the past about some of the Kate Spade statement bags which are always incredibly fun to look at, but not practical enough for me to buy. Would I love a Kate Spade bag that is shaped like a wicker elephant? Of course! But will I pay $400 for it? Sadly, no. So when I saw this faux leather bag from TopShop that has a enamel panther detail I had to have it! It’s subtle, but still so cool, fun, and…

    Red Purses

    I normally pick neutral colors for my bags and purses so that I can get the most use out of them. Sticking to blacks, tans, and creams is always a good idea to keep things classic. But sometimes you want a more vibrant color for a pop of color and/or to add a bold color to your look. My cousin gifted me a red Adrienne Vittadini satchel and I wore it out recently with my rainbow stripe sweater. This purse is still available if you’re interested, but I also found 7 other red purses that look fabulous! Sweater: Nordstrom | Jeans: LC Lauren Conrad via Kohl’s | Boots: UGG (here)…

    I love cute summer prints as you can tell from the popsicle tee I shared yesterday. Today I’m sharing pineapple print! I got this cute little foldover envelope purse with pineapple print last summer, but didn’t have a chance to show it off on here. Overalls: Kohl’s | Top: American Eagle | Purse: Avenue Be | Shoes: DSW The purse is small, but the perfect size for a small summer bag to take out for lunch or dinner. The zip at the foldover portion offers extra space and I love the delicate gold chain and gold detailing. I paired the purse with my acid wash shortalls and off the shoulder…

    Belt Bag

    May 19, 2019 /

    Belt bags have been a growing trend, if you didn’t already know. Essentially they’re fanny packs, but these chic bags have been renamed “belt bags” and are worn by stylish women you see on the city streets instead of your mom in the 80s and 90s around the amusement parks. I wasn’t sure how I felt about the trend. There are some, mostly designer ones, that look so good on people on social media. But, I wasn’t sure how I’d like the look on myself. Luckily for me, I got to try out the trend without spending any money. Earlier this spring when I placed an order on DSW, they…

I restyled it last weekend with leggings and my light grey Moda Luxe boho satchel bag that my cousin gifted me. Top: Vici | Leggings: Nordstrom Rack | Bag: Moda Luxe | Shoes: Red Dress Boutique This was the perfect bag to take with me out and about last week. I was out all day running around so I had the obvious things in it like my wallet and phone, but also a book I’ve been reading, and a sweater. It’s been my go-to bag lately when I’ve got a bunch of places…

    Coach Reversible Flap Crossbody

    May 10, 2019 /

    What’s better than a nice, good quality crossbody bag than to get two in one? When I was shopping for a new crossbody bag back in the fall I came across this Coach one that was small and classic. And then I realized it had a reversible flap and I was sold! One side is black and one side is white. All you have to do is unsnap the back and flip it around. It’s hard to describe, but it only unsnaps on one end and the other is still stitched to the bag itself so when you want to use the other side you unsnap it and flap it…

Book Spotlight ✨ Explosive Chemistry by Paige E. Book Spotlight ✨ Explosive Chemistry by Paige E. Ewing @paigeewing_author came out last month and I was lucky enough to receive a copy but haven’t gotten to read it yet! Keep reading for the synopsis 📖

Set 30 years into a hopeful future where fossil fuels are obsolete in Fayetteville, North Carolina, a reluctant spider-kin fortune teller must solve the mystery of who killed four soldiers at Fort Liberty. With not quite enough– or maybe too much– help from an infuriating Fae Colonel, and before her dear friends, an oak goblin doctor and a fairy with a penchant for machine guns, end up as the next victims. Including a neurodivergent main character and a diverse cast of quirky companions, Explosive Chemistry is the second installment of the Liliana and the Fae of Fayetteville series that started with Precise Oaths.

I’m looking forward to getting into this series! 📚

Christmas in Coconut Creek by @karissakinwordwrite Christmas in Coconut Creek by @karissakinwordwrites was such a fun read and my favorite Christmas read so far this season! 🎄📚The novel follows Ophelia and Frankie. Ophelia lives in Colorado but takes a few weeks off work to visit her best friend in Florida for the holidays. Just for fun, she spends her time at the airport playing around on a dating app when she matches with a good looking guy who is former military. And that guy just so happens to be sitting next to her on the plane. There is definite chemistry, but just when the two think they'll never see each other again, they learn that Ophelia's best friend and Frankie's best friend/roommate are a couple so they will be spending a lot of time together for the next few weeks. ✈️

I loved Ophelia, Frankie, Natalia, and Matteo! I loved Ophelia and Frankie together. Their banter was so fun. It was really beautiful to watch their relationship grow and how they went from individuals who felt very solitary in many ways to realizing they could rely on each other too. 🥹🩷

The book is filled with laughs, banter, spice, and also a couple emotional moments that did have my heart aching at times!🩷

This is the first book the Dirty Delta series which is going to follow Frankie’s other best friends from Delta Team. I can’t wait!📖

Read this if you want a spicy Christmas romcom with the friends with benefits to lovers trope! My full review is on the blog ✨

P.S. this perfect photo op was from when I was knitting vacation in Florida and went to Disney Springs one evening!

Wreck the Halls by @tessabaileyisanauthor is my la Wreck the Halls by @tessabaileyisanauthor is my latest Christmas read! 🎄📖 The novel follows Melody Gallard and Beat Dawkins. Their mothers used to be a very popular rock duo that had a falling out and broke up 30 years ago. People have wanted them to reunite for year. Melody and Beat have always ignored the questions from the press and public, but when Beat is in need of some money he considers a reality tv offer that will pay him and Melody a million dollars if they can get their mothers to get back together to perform on Christmas Eve at Rockefeller Center. 🎶🎄

Melody spent all her teenage years being ridiculed by the press for her looks, braces, etc. so she has enjoyed being out of the spotlight as an adult. But when she finds out that Beat, her long time crush, is considering a reality show to reunite their mothers she seriously considers putting herself back out in the public eye. However, Beat has always felt protective of her – even from afar – and as much as he needs this show and reunion to work he doesn’t want to see Melody get hurt.🩷

Will the two who have secretly liked each other for the past 14 years finally get together? Will they succeed in getting their mothers to reunite?🩷

I really enjoyed this book! I would’ve loved an epilogue and a little more to the ending, but I loved Beat & Melody, the fun banter, the spice, and storyline! 📖🩷

Read this if you want a spicy Christmas romcom 🩷. My full review is on the blog ✨
