Happy Spring

 Sunday was officially the first day of Spring.
We have actually been really lucky and experiencing Spring weather for a couple weeks now.
Since it's Spring you know that means it's time for dresses. 
I already shared a bunch of dresses in this blog post, but I love a few so much I thought they deserve their own spot on the blog.
Let's start with this one.
I immediately fell in love with this dress when I saw it online. I loved the color, the fit, EVERYTHING.
I knew it would also work while I have the bump and after. Since I'm getting to the end of my pregnancy that is something that is important to me while shopping. I'm trying to buy things that will work now and after I have baby girl. 
This piece really gives me garden party vibes and I absolutely love it. 
It would work for brunch, a wedding, baby shower, the list really goes on and on. I think I'm actually going to wear it to my friends shower this weekend. 
Let's also take a minute to talk about these shoes! 
They are total Dolce Vita dupes for under $35. They are also insanely comfortable.
I've worn them a few times for 4+ hours and was fine. Would highly recommend if you have a wedding or other event coming up where you'll be on your feet for a while.

What are you looking forward to most this Spring? 
I'm honestly just really enjoying the Spring weather. 
It's been so nice lately and I'm really hoping to get outside and enjoy it this weekend. I have been so busy with cleaning, baby showers, weddings, etc. I think this Saturday I want to get to the beach early and just relax with my book and get some vitamin D before it gets too hot!

Cherry Blossoms

If you've been around for a while then you know how much I love NYC.
As much as I love it and as many times as I have been (and my little bit of time living there) I have never been during spring time.
I was so happy I finally got to visit my favorite city during such a beautiful time of year.
One of the big draws to the city during this season is all the blooms. The main ones... cherry blossoms. 
I knew I had to get some shots in Central Park so I met my friend after work one day and we walked over. 
Thanks to Grace's cherry blossom guide I knew just the spot I wanted to go to. (If you are visiting during the Spring I highly recommend saving her post.) 
It was crazy busy with people getting their shot for the gram, but we were able to find a little less crowded area and ended up with some great photos.

What's your favorite season? Mine is usually Fall or Winter, but if I could have Spring in NYC every year that would hands down win every time... at least I think. Fall in the city is pretty magical too.

Dressed Up Tie Dye

Y'all definitely know tie dye is a HUGE trend right now! 
I personally can't get enough. By the time this quarantine is over that might just be what my entire wardrobe consists of. 
Kidding... kind of.
I saw this sweatshirt all over IG and thought it was so cute. I finally decided I had to have it. 
Naturally, as soon as I went to link this for y'all, I saw it's sold out!! (You still might be able to find it in stores.) There are some other color options that I was able to link for you. And they are currently 20% off. It's a bit of an oversize fit so I would definitely get your regular size. (I'm wearing a medium.)
I tried to dress it up a bit with jeans and heels. 
Let's actually take a minute to talk about these heels. 
I just got them from Lulu's and LOVE them. The quilting makes them look really high end, but they are under $40!! 
They also have a square toe, which is a trend I have been seeing quite a bit. 
The heel is a great height too. You an definitely wear them and walk around for a while without being uncomfortable. I plan on wearing these all summer long!  They are such a great summer shoe.












Top: Target | Jeans: Old Navy (Also just bought this high waisted option. Another great option here.) | Shoes: Lulu's currently sold out (similar flat version here I also really like these) | Sunnies: Amazon | Lipstick: Ulta Automatic Lip Liner in Rosewood with MAC Cosmetics Lipglass in Snob on top

I am so glad tomorrow is Friday. Anyone else? It's supposed to be nice this weekend so hoping to get some bike rides, runs and hammock time in. What are your plans?

Comfy Clothes at Work

Happy Friday eve!
(I feel like I have to start every blog post by identifying what day it is in some way. If you're anything like me they are all starting to run together.) 
The title of this post is probably a little confusing. Don't worry I am not back in my office. One day though we will be back in our office after a very extended period of working from home most likely in loungewear. I have definitely treated myself to some new comfy pieces these last few weeks and have started to wonder how I will still get use out of it when we do go back to the office. Today I decided to show you how I would do just that.
This sweatshirt is from a cute set I picked up from Target last month. If you have a more casual office environment you can definitely pair this with a nice pair of jeans. I went with a white pair that has no holes. I feel like holes are SUPER casual so you shouldn't pair them with a casual top. I also went with loafers to give it more of an office vibe. Depending on the top you could swap loafers for some type of heel to really elevate the look.
This outfit also held me somewhat accountable because I hadn't put on real pants in over 3 weeks. (I was thankful they still fit the same as pre quarantine snacks.) 










Top: Target | Jeans: Old Navy | Shoes: Old (similar here & here) | Sunnies: Amazon | Lips: Ulta Automatic Lip Liner in Rosewood with Charlotte Tilbury Lip Lustre Lip Gloss in Pillow Talk | Watch Band: Amazon
What are your wearing everyday while WFH? Have you still been dressing the part or going total comfort? 
I have definitely been going the comfort route. I try to make myself somewhat presentable since I usually have at least one face to face meeting a day.
I hope y'all are doing well. If you need to talk please feel free to email, leave a comment or DM me on intagram! 
Thanks for reading and I hope you have a wonderful weekend. of

Seeing Stars

Hey friends!
Hows week 2 of quarantine going for everyone? 
We are doing ok here. Definitely getting a little stir crazy, but still managing. 
I am totally obsessed with today's outfit. I can't wait to wear this out and about after things get back to normal. (I actually shot this right before things got REAL bad.)
Let me start with this jacket. I have been wearing it non-stop since I got it in January.
It's great to throw on with jeans, a dress, skirts, really anything. It's super lightweight which is perfect for this time of year. 
I kept things super casual with denim shorts and this bodysuit I got last summer. It's one of my favorites and still in stock. If you want to keep things casual you can pair it with jeans. If you want to dress it up, it looks great with skirts or dress pants. That's one of the best things about bodysuits... they are so easy to style. One thing to note: This bodysuit is a bit on the revealing side so just keep that in mind. 













Jacket: Parkside Harbor | Bodysuit: Revolve | Shorts: Old Navy | Shoes: Adidas | Purse: Rebecca Minkoff | Sunnies: Amazon | Lips: NARS Afterglow Lip Balm in Orgasm

I hope everyone is staying safe during this time and not going to crazy! 
Thanks for stopping by and reading.
