Dress: Nordstrom // Shoes: Marc Fisher (similar) // Clutch: FIG Dallas

If you didn’t notice, I really really love Christmas, and I can never have too many festive outfits! Something about searching for the perfect presents, wrapping them, decorating the house with way too much garland and eating cookies nonstop makes me want to dress up all the time.

I saw this forest green dress at Nordstrom, and while it doesn’t scream holidays, I knew it would be easy to dress up for the season. This dress fits true to size (wearing a small), and it is under $100 (total steal)! The wrap waist is super flattering for indulging in holiday meals, but be warned, it can unwrap if you don’t tie it tight enough. I really love the button detail, sheer sleeves, and longer hemline on this dress. I paired the forest green dress with a gold clutch and shoes (shout out to my Baylor family members) for the holidays. This dress also pairs well with both black or cream accessories depending on the time of year. I have linked this entire look as well as a few similar styles below! xoxo

Christmas is less than two weeks away! The tree and garland are up, all the presents are wrapped, and the only thing left is to find the perfect Christmas outfit. I love showing holiday cheer, but at the same time I love a sleek black outfit. This plaid skirt from J.Crew was the perfect holiday solution for me. I can still show off my Christmas spirit while wearing a black turtleneck, black tights and black shoes. If you like to wear more color than I do, this skirt also pairs well with a red, green or gold sweater. This plaid skirt fits true to size (wearing a 0) and is still truly high waisted without being too short in length. I have linked everything from this look as well as my favorite plaid pieces for you to mix into your holiday look below! xoxo

Is it too early to start decorating for Christmas? Asking for a friend… aka me, because I am so excited that the holidays are just around the corner! A few weeks ago we spent a long weekend in Detriot and the (freezing) cold weather had me ready for the holiday season. We are finally feeling a bit of the colder weather in Dallas and I was finally pulled my winter clothes out of storage. I bought this white sweater during the Nordstrom Anniversary Sale earlier this year. It is currently sold out in white, but is available in black, red, purple and cobalt. I love the balloon sleeve detail and mock neckline, which makes this white sweater just that much warmer. T-50 days until Christmas!! xoxo

Set: Free People // Shoes: Banana Republic // Clutch: Rebecca Minkoff

We have been so busy working on our new house, that summer has flown by. I finally took a break from decorating to make time for a date night and enjoy the last few weeks of Dallas heat. I bought this black ruffle set around my birthday for an outdoor concert and it was perfect for our dinner on the patio at Dolce Riviera.

 This black ruffle set from Free People is perfect for the 100+ degree weather we have all summer. I wear the skirt high on my waist, so that it looks more like a dress, but it can be worn lower to show a bit of midriff. The material breathes really well and doesn’t show sweat, which makes it perfect for any outdoor event. I paired it with some classic black strappy heels and my favorite Rebecca Minkoff clutch.

Swimsuit: J.Crew // Sunnies: Karen Walker

Is it obvious that I want to be back at the beach? I am already trying to convince Alex that it is time for another vacation, and I am not sure he is taking the hints (wink wink). When I started buying swimsuits this season I am pretty sure I ended up with 90% one pieces and most were black (of course). For some reason, I decided to channel my inner Baywatch and buy this red swimsuit. Color is so not my thing, but for some reason I ended up really loving this red swimsuit almost as much as the black swimsuit I shared a few weeks go. I am wearing a size 2, and it fits perfectly. In my post about the black one piece I also wore in Punta Cana, I talked about how well J.Crew swimsuits cover the backside. This red swimsuit fits very similar to the black one in that it have great coverage and is comfortable to wear all day. Shop this red swimsuit and some similar styles below! xoxo
