I'm officially on a summer scarf kick.

I'm blaming Jayme & Mendi at Her Late Night Cravings because

of this fabulous scarf collection/tying tutorial video they posted last week.

Basically as soon I saw it I went on my usual everyotherday trip to Target

and scooped up this gorgeous floral scarf in their clearance section for 

only 5 bucks!  Seriously!  I loved it so much I might have worn it

two days in a row.  Don't tell anyone! ;)

I'm also SUPER excited right now because I have 

a new watch coming to me this week!  Yay!  You may remember

my watch post from several months ago where I was debating between

a few different beauties.  Well, I was just never able to get watch #1 out 

of my head, so with a little help from my in-laws, I purchased it!  It

was just my luck that our local Macy's was out of the gold one, 

but it should be delivered to me soon!  I can't wait!

I hope you all are having a wonderful week!!

Sometimes you just need to pile a few pieces of the same color on.  

The effect is just good for the soul - especially when it makes you think of 

Spring!  This mint scarf and cardi, anchored by the navy pants and my new 

tan shoes (hauled in this post), make me lust for the warm weather and

sunshine ahead!   Come on Spring, I know you're close!!

Linking up with The GFC Collective Blog Hop today!

I wanted to make an effort to include some Valentine hues

 into each of my looks this week.  Yesterday I went for a subtle approach by adding 

just a couple pops of fuchsia on my nails and lips - two of my favorite places to add color!  Adding green gave the look a slightly preppy vibe and then I added in my favorite color combo - black & white -  to keep the whole look balanced.  I know it's a little early, but 

this outfit is essentially an outfit meant for transitioning into Spring.  I'm so ready

for the warmer weather!  Is anyone else with me?

Happy New Year!!!

I'm so excited that it's 2013 I can hardly stand it!  There are so many fun 

things to look forward to this year and a lot of them have something to do with my

wardrobe!  Is that wrong?!  Okay good!  I didn't think so either! ;)  So over the next few 

days I'll be introducing a few new favorites of mine that you can expect to see more of 

this year!  Today we're starting off with my new glasses!! I've worn prescription glasses

and contacts since around 6th grade.  Why have I been blogging for 4 months and you are

just now finding out about my vision probs?  Well, because the glasses I had were the same

terribly unattractive ones I got while a sophomore in college.  Yes, I'd been trying to wear 

these glasses for SEVEN years!  Oh my!  They were so ugly and in such bad shape that 

I would only wear them around the house - definitely not in public!  So you can imagine

my excitement when Firmoo offered to send me a pair!  I didn't have to search long to

 find a fabulously oversized pair that fit my style perfectly!  It arrived promptly and with

a hard case, a soft case, a repair tool, and a cleaning cloth!!  And the quality of the 

glasses themselves are much better than I was even expecting!  

The next thing on my eyewear list is a pair 

of prescription sunglasses.  Thankfully, Firmoo has those, too!  They even have

non-prescription options for both eyeglasses and sunglasses; definitely something for 

everyone!  What makes their company even more awesome is their first pair free 

program!  Yes, everyone can get their first pair of Firmoo glasses on the house -

you just pay the shipping!  Head over to the Firmoo website and pick out your

next pair of glasses.  Need a suggestion? My other faves are these and these. 

Let me know yours!

PS - This outfit was inspired by my most recent Friday's Fancies post! 

*The glasses were provided by Firmoo but all opinions expressed are my own [& always will be].

 Oh how I love NYC! 

This past weekend was sort of a blur as a few of my besties

and I made the quickest little weekend trip to the city.  None of them

had been there before so I got to play tour guide with my tiny bit of 

experience.  Needless to say, they're all in love with the city

now!  I'm already looking forward to planning my next trip 

there - hopefully with my hubby in tow!

Sometimes I just really love to put on a pair of jeans. 
What's different about this outfit though, is that I'm wearing light denim - something 
I haven't worn in years.  Although I've stayed very true to the slimming effects of dark 
denim for quite a long time, I realized while shopping a few days ago that I needed 
a little change in my life.  A change as simple as the color of my jeans really helped
 to liven things up in my wardrobe.  Do you wear different shades of denim or do you 
stick with just one? 

Did you notice my new business card?!  Ahhh!! I love them!!
 They arrived late last week and I'm so excited to start handing them out 
at a rapid pace!!  I'm still blown away at the initial success of this blog - thank 
you so much to all my readers for making one of my dreams come true!

My boots are here and they are beautiful!  They are, however, tight in the calves.  I'm hoping they'll stretch out on their own over the next few wears or I'll probably have to take them to a cobbler.  I don't mind a little bit of bunching, but is this too much?  I feel like they look as if they need to be pulled higher on my legs.  The problem is, they won't budge.  What do you think?  Anyone have any experience stretching out boots they'd like to share?

  Aside from the tightness I am madly in love with them.  They are the most perfect color and the style is just exactly what I wanted.  Don't be surprised if eventually I follow after

 my friend Kristin and order them in black, too!  I can't wait for hers to arrive so 

she can post pics on her blog.

This leopard scarf is one of my most prized accessories.  I found it at Aldo last year for probably no more than $25 and I get so much wear out of it.  My absolute favorite way to wear it is all tied up in a bow.  Bows make everything better.  They give that perfect little pop of femininity!  If you haven't tried tying a scarf this way, I challenge you to test it out this fall.  You'll be surprised how it will make you (and everyone else) 

view your outfit in an entirely different way.
