Under the Sea

(“floating on the pool in a raft” wasn’t quite as catchy) 😉 Swimsuit shopping is kinda like jeans shopping: you either don’t mind it, or absolutely hate it. I don’t mind it that much, but I’m a big fan of all things shopping-related, so there ya go. Here are some of my swimsuit shopping strategies:…

Colored denim and printed wedges

When I first saw colored denim last spring, I thought to myself “I’m glad the trend will be gone by next year.” Nope. Here we are again and colored denim is more popular than it was last year. Same thing with skinny jeans… I fought the trend forever because I thought they were horribly unflattering,…

DIY: Wire headbands

I’m really excited to bring you guys a very special guest post from one of my good friends and future sister-in-law: Meg! Meg is quite the little fashionista –she’s an amazing shopping buddy- and writes over at With a Sentimental Heart. She and my bro recently started a blog to chronicle their wedding adventures, too:…

In between-er

What’s this?! A fashion post! Wow, it’s been quite a while since I’ve done one of these. At first, it was more of a “here’s what I like” page, that turned into a “here’s what I wore” page that came to a standstill as it got more and more challenging to dress myself. Some women…

So tight

Tights and I have a weird relationship. Whenever I wear them, I have flashbacks to middle school dances where my mom would say “make sure you wear hosiery with that dress!” I hated nylons. So I would listen to her, take them off when I got to the dance, and put them back on before…

Bright and Shiny White

I used to love me some Crest Whitestrips. Source As soon as they became really popular (I think it was late high school?), I jumped on the bandwagon. This was before I really paid attention to the ingredients in anything I was using, especially beauty products, and also started my hardcore coffee addiction. I’ve mentioned…

What’s in the basket?

One thing I love about moving so often is that it forces you to get rid of clutter and start fresh wherever you go. Marrying a military man forced me to transform from the girl with hundreds of random bottles and cosmetics to more of a minimalist. I just get what I absolutely need and…

Hot Curler How-to

I’ve always been a huge fan of hot curlers. They’re super easy to use, inexpensive, and make you look like you spent a lot of time on your hair, when in reality, you totally didn’t. One thing I’ve noticed is that all hot curlers are pretty similar, but what you want to look for is…

Two new hair and nail faves

Thank you so much for those of you who left feedback on the Fashion page. I’m using all of your suggestions and we’ll see where it rolls from here 😉 Since my clothing situation is still awkward [hoping to remedy the situation this weekend], I thought I could focus on two things that are easy…

Let’s be real here

Things on ye ol’ fashion page have gotten a little stale. Source [That has nothing to do with this post, but I thought it was hilarious] So why are things so lame over here? I haven’t been feeling the least bit fashionable lately. Most of my outfits consist of pants with a hair tie through…

Bring on the boots

Living in Valdosta sheltered my fashion life. That’s not to say that I didn’t see fashionable people while I lived there, but the shopping was kind of scary. Even with frequent escapes to Jacksonville and Orlando, I kind of fell out of my usual stylish ways. When I first started to see boots and skinny…

Emmy Fashion

I have a not-so-secret love for awards shows. Maybe it’s my obsession with gorgeous gowns, celeb gossip (my guilty pleasure) and the fact that ever since I was young, I wanted to go to one. Of course, my career in performing died the day I changed my major from musical theatre to finance freshman year…
