Romper: c/o Tobi // Sandals: old, similar here and here // Sunglasses: Wal-Mart -in store, similar // Purse: old, similar here and here // Necklace: old (cute option) // Bracelet: old, cute option here // Ring: Francesca's (similar) 

Have you guys ever had that color that just emanates who you are? Well, today I bring you the color of my summer soul. Okay it's the color of my Autumn soul too! Seriously I love this color. I find that it complements my skin tone very well and just makes me happy all around. The only color that could probably top it is mustard yellow. I was gifted this gorgeous romper from Tobi. If you haven't heard about this online shop then you are missing out. I spent days just going through their inventory and bookmarking lots of pieces to my favorites tab. The vibe of Tobi is California / bohemian cool. Most of the clothing read airy and light. While browsing their website, I kept thinking "If I was a rich girl..."

As I was browsing I came across this rust colored gem and just had to have it. My only concern was that it might be too short. I have that problem when it comes to rompers. I also wondered how well it was lined because the fabric looked very thin. But to my surprise it was very well lined. The color, the flared sleeves, down to the tiny buttons, every detail was absolutely perfect about it. I see many more summer days styling piece. A cool extra is that if you sign up for their email you can get 50% off your first order.

Have a great day friends!

Hello loves! So remember last week I told you guys that I cleaned out my closet, well here's another gem that I found. This one shoulder top from Old Navy is at least 7 years old. It's super cute and still fits! The best part is that it's trendy again. When I first bought this stop the one shoulder trend was gaining lots of momentum. I absolutely loved how simple and comfortable this top was, so I bought it. I've actually worn it on and off for the past few years, but now it's back on trend. I love when I keep items in my closet that I love without any regards to when they will be trendy again. Then when they do come full circle it's the best feeling. Anyways, since this top is rather old, I've linked a bunch of cute similar tops below so you dolls can get this look. Talk to you later!

Hello loves. Today I have a new post for you featuring some not so new threads. This blue dress is one of the few sporty pieces I own. Most pieces I own are a mix of feminine, bohemian, and classic with a few staple pieces. If you follow me on Instagram, then you might have caught a small glimpse of me cleaning out my closet this past week. I mean I did a deep cleaning. I pulled everything out, dusted, vacuumed, and even caught the baseboards. I was so amazed at how much dust had collected in the crevices between the carpet and wall. I swear I'm not a huge fan of wall to wall carpeting, but this is a rental.  Anyhow, after I was done, my closet sure looked better. I think I'll do a separate post on my closet clean-out and organization tips, that way I can go over my entire process.

So while, I was doing that I found this piece in there. I hadn't worn it in over a year, but I remember I loved it so much. The reason I hadn't worn it in a year was that I had gained some weight. Last summer I wanted to wear this dress, but I put it on and saw that it was very ill fitting. I wasn't ready to part with it so I stuck it back in my closet. I was at my highest weight then, which was 150 lbs. This coming form a girl who normally weighed 136. So I had gained 14 lbs from my normal. I'm currently down to 141, since last summer. So I thought "why not try it on see if you still love it." I tried it and of course I loved it. It's such an easy piece and super comfortable. I swear I can always count on Old Navy for pieces like this. The best part part about this piece is that it can also be dressed up. Anyways, since this dress is an older piece, I linked some similar pieces below, although it was really hard to find similar pieces in this particular color.  I hope you all have a wonderful day, and thanks for stopping by.

Happy Thursday loves!!! So I'm sharing this fun look I wore last week. My sister and mom came into town and, I ended up meeting them at Old Navy and later having an early dinner at Chili's. It was sort of a mini girl's day that was very unexpected. I had fun catching up with them both. My sister is to credit for these pictures. So thanks little sis! Also, I couldn't find a similar strapless denim dress to mine, so I linked a few cute off the shoulder options below. Sorry this post is short, but I'm totally getting tired and I should be in bed.

Hello loves! So this past Thursday, I had a pre-weekend date. We strolled downtown Lafayette and took a mini coffee break at Carpe Diem. It's this really lovely coffee shop. The atmosphere reminds me of one of the cute Parisian cafes you see in the movies. I have a small picture on my Instagram of  the cuteness that is this coffee shop. I had the prosciutto croissant and it was amazing. If you are ever in downtown Lafayette you should stop by. Also, can we talk about how I've given in to the tassel trend. I mean, I always liked tassels, but I always thought home decor when I imagined them. Tassels are actually pretty big this summer and these earrings were a last minute/ impulse purchase, but I absolutely adore them. Now I feel like a real southern blogger (LOL!) Thanks for stopping by!
