Finally got around to checking out Velvet Taco last weekend! Check out the full post for a review and for my summer outfit inspiration!

For this Wishlist Wednesday, I wanted to talk about a California style essential: the graphic tee. Now, I see a lot of stuff on Pinterest talking about "California girl style" that references boho maxi dresses and crocheted tops or peasant blouses. But let me tell you about real California-girl style…

My primary focus in fashion is to wear things that make me feel great while still being comfortable and functional (which I feel is most women's goal). So if a trend doesn't make sense to me, I'm not going to go along with it, much less invest money into it, no matter how popular it is. I feel that this sentiment is particularly relevant to this season's sunglasses.

It’s finally travel day! I thought I’d share my version of a comfy travel outfit with you to honor the occasion!

It was ridiculously hot for this week’s OOTD shoot, but thankfully we were able to find a cute, colorful backdrop that also happened to be in the shade! Check out my favorite tank top and shorts that I’ll be wearing all. summer. long.

Happy Friday, folks! Not only is National Donut Day today (yep, you heard me right), but today marks two weeks until I get to see my family! Also, three weeks until I get to go to the beach - hallelujah! So I am officially a happy, albeit busy, girl.

I love wearing midi dresses in the summertime for mom duties, as opposed to shorts and a t-shirt, as usual. They are breezy, yet modest enough to be able to function as a mom uniform. Here are my favorite pieces from this season!

Today I’m sharing three ways to style a basic black swing dress, for those times when you need to re-use the basics in your closet.

Finally, it's the weekend! We have a birthday celebration tonight so I'm currently trying to figure out what to wear for that. In the mean time, I've got some weekend outfit inspiration for you!

Hubby had to go down to the VA the other day, which is all the way down by the airport (40 miles from our house - in case you're not aware, nothing is ever convenient or even remotely efficient for Veterans), so we made the most of it and hung out on South Congress for the day.
