Sunday Style: Altuzarra and Some Pixies

I am in love with this sweatshirt!  I am so glad that I decided to get this one. The white is not as vibrant in person as it was in all of the marketing but I love it nonetheless. I decided to go with the bow shirt as well since I thought it would be a good basic for my closet.

I love the versatility of a good sweatshirt. I think it's great that styles come back around. I'm sitting here writing this post as I am watching The Golden Girls and Rose is rocking a great sweatshirt with a pair of jeans. Hers is plain and boring as are her jeans, but you get the picture...oh and she's also probably in her fifties here so I guess I shouldn't necessarily use her as an example...

Anyways, I decided to pair the sweatshirt with a pair of patterned pants. I have a couple of ideas of ways that I will wear this but I liked this for today. These pixie pants from Old Navy are amazing! I picked these up on sale and already have a few outfits in mind for them as well. I admit the houndstooth might be a bit busy for some but that is what drew me to these pants. I'll also admit that I am super self conscious to wear pants like these and asked my husband a few times if they looked okay. 

I decided to just go for it and I like the results. It's a bit of a busy pattern mix and a whole lot of fun!

Here are some pics from today's outfit- I'm curious to see what you all think! 







Hope you're having a great weekend!

Sunday Style: Green

Image
Green is my favorite color. I think it brings out the color in my eyes and it looks great with my skin tone.There's lots of sayings with green in them too. Give the green light. Green thumb. Going green. (Make no mistake- I didn't say Go Green- that's for all you Spartan fans out there). Green around the gills. Green with envy- well, don't be green with envy but I am sitting here in sunny Florida enjoying the warm weather and time with family and friends... This green dress has been hanging in my closet for a while but this was the first time that I got it out. I scored it on a major sale but just haven't had a chance to wear it. I always say why wait for a special occasion?  What I love most about this dress is the neckline. I tell you all the time that it's hard for me to wear a straight skirt or dress and this is no exception. I like the look of it but I do think I'll spend a few more dollars and have it tailored a little more. I paired nude pumps...

Sunday Style: JJ’s House

Image
It’s been said in various ways that clothes don’t make the person, the person makes the clothes. I believe this to be exceptionally true in this beautiful dress that I am wearing in today’s post! This dress literally made me wish that I was heading out to the opera or a benefit dinner. I love that I get to wear and model a lot of clothes and some just feel more special than others. This dress was custom made for me so I got all the feels while I was zipping it up and looking in the mirror. It fits like a glove and I could not be more in love with it!  Let’s talk about  JJ’s House  for a minute. They have all sorts of dresses for special occasions, including bridal wear! I picked out a dress and did my measurements and sent them in with my order. They even called me once to make sure that my measurements were correct so they made sure to make the dress correctly!  This  dress  has gorgeous nude tulle with a black lace overlay. I literally felt like a princes...
