Tie-Neck Tank

I am enjoying this spring weather way too much! I always forget how much I really love the sun and warm (or even hot) weather. I found this tie-neck tank at J. Crew a few months ago, and I have been waiting for it to warm up enough to wear it without a sweater. I love how versatile this tank is. It can easily be tucked in, layered, or worn as is for all different looks. Not only does this tank come in light pink, orange, olive, jade, as well as black, but it is on sale for only $30! This tie-neck tank fits true to size (wearing a small) and can easily be tied in the front or the back. I paired it with my favorite jeans, Marc Fisher heels (on repeat), and this adorable bamboo handbag from Cult Gaia. I ordered this bag during the ShopBop sale for my honeymoon in Punta Cana, but I loved it even more in person and could not wait to add it in my wardrobe. I do still need to find a small cloth bag to keep in it to keep everything from falling through the slots though. Shop this look and similar pieces below! xoxo

Navy and White Dress

Spring is finally here and thank goodness because I was starting to really miss the sunshine. My coworkers and I actually sat on the patio yesterday for lunch, and I left with a slight tan and much happier spirits after a full dose of vitamin D! With our wedding coming up (just 3 months away!), and warmer temperatures around the corner, I have started adding more white into my wardrobe. My first white purchase this spring was a pair of my favorite Marc Fisher pumps. Since I already own these pumps in tan, gold, and black, it was natural to just continue my collection for everyday wear. These white pumps paired perfectly with the white piping on this navy dress from J.Crew. When I saw this navy and white dress online, my first thought was how similar it was to this navy dress I already own from J.Crew. I added it to my cart and thought I would try it on anyways to see how it fit. Y’all, this dress is hands down my new favorite for spring, and I have already decided that I will be wearing this exact outfit for Easter! The material is a knit wool-cotton blend, so it is incredibly comfortable, and the weight of the material allows the dress to hang just right without clinging. I love that the sleeves come to about my elbows because I get cold so easily. This dress fits a little loose (I am wearing a small), but a size smaller probably would have fit a little better. I completed my Easter look with these gold hoop earrings (similar) and a classic straw clutch (similar). J.Crew is currently running a promotion on new items online or in-store, so you can get this dress 10-40% off with the code NEWNEW. I have linked this look and some other navy and white dresses that are perfect for Easter below! xoxo

Wedding

White Outfits

Our wedding is less than 100 days away, so naturally I am freaking out over here! We have made major progress on planning the past few weeks, and we just have smaller things to cross off our list now (like buying a house ha). The wedding shoes I designed with Shoes of Prey came in yesterday, and they are perfect (check out my “Wedding” highlight on Instagram stories to see the final product)! We have selected all of the music with our DJ, passed off the envelopes to the calligrapher, booked my bridal luncheon, and will have my first bridal shower this weekend! With so many things going on, I have hardly thought about what I am going to wear to all the upcoming events. Bridal showers, bachelorette party (less than a month away!), bridal luncheon and rehearsal dinner will all need white outfits. Since the vast majority of my closet is black, finding white outfits has been a little difficult for me. Most white dresses, tops, and skirts are a little see through, and most white accessories are slightly off white. A few white pieces I have found and love include this adorable white lace dress from Anthropologie. It fits perfectly, and the tea length is great for luncheons and showers (full post coming soon). I also found this fun Rag and Bone dress at Neiman Marcus Last Call and love the small cutout in the back. I will have it slightly altered to fit just right through the waist  though. Of course I had to order my favorite Marc Fisher pumps in white, but I am also majorly crushing on these white Marc Fisher wedges for a more casual look. I have linked all of my favorite white pieces for future brides or to add to your spring wardrobe below! xoxo

The weather is finally warming up here in Dallas! I am starting to put away those wool sweaters and transition pieces of my closet from winter to spring. I found this black lace top at Anthropolgie a few months ago, and had tucked it away for warmer weather. It was perfect recently for lunch on the patio and a day of running errands around town. This black lace top is currently on sale at Anthropologie for less than $70 (selling out fast). It comes in both black and white (tempted to order it in white too) and fits true to size (wearing a small). I love the detail along the neckline and the structure of the lace sleeves. The fit is great for layering under a jacket or tucking into high waisted jeans or skirt. I chose to tuck the black lace top into my favorite high wasted jeans from J.Crew and completed the look with the best Marc Fisher heels. I added a pair of gold hoops (similar) and this black and gold bangle that Alex gave me for Valentine’s Day (the sweetest). Shop this look and similar lace tops for spring below! xoxo

Black Blazer

What a week it has been! We received some sad news that our dog of 11 years, Scout, has cancer. He is hanging in there and we are doing everything to make him comfortable, but I have been focused on spending time with him. There has also been nonstop rain here in Dallas, which finally let up this weekend, thank goodness. The sunshine is giving us hope spring around the corner, but temperatures are still a little chilly. This light weight black blazer has been perfect for the hint of spring weather.

This black blazer fits true to size (wearing a small), but has longer fitting sleeves. I ended up rolling the sleeves twice, so the sleeves fit at a mid length, which I prefer anyways. The material is much more light weight than most blazer, and layers best with a tank top or short sleeve shirt. I paired it with a neutral silk camisole and my favorite cropped jeans, for a casual work day, but it can be worn over a slip dress for dinner. To complete my look I added these Marc Fisher heels that I absolutely love and now own in three colors (I knew I would end up buying all the colors). Shop this entire look below! xoxo

This time last weekend, Alex and I had just finished shooting this look when we were in a bad accident on the Dallas North Toll Road. Luckily everyone was fine, but we were hit by a large pickup truck and Alex’s car was a total loss. If you follow we me on Instagram stories, you know that we bought a car this weekend and are already in love with Sewell Cadillac’s famed customer service. Now that we are back to owning two cars we can focus back on buying house (ugh).

It has taken me a little longer to write this post with everything going on this week, but I could not put off sharing this super warm camel sweater any longer. This sweater has been perfect for the recent 20-30 degree temperatures here in Dallas. It is 100% merino wool, and I just love the neutral camel color. I am wearing a size small and it has a slight over-sized fit and longer sleeves than I would normally buy. I paired this sweater with my favorite Paige jeans and nude Marc Fisher heels. Shop this look below! xoxo
