Wedding Wednesday: Picking the Perfect Shoes!

Happy Wedding Wednesday!

Now that we have the perfect dress we need the perfect shoes, right?! I’ve always had an idea of the shoes I would wear at my wedding as well as look perfect in my wedding details flat lay (I also photograph weddings so details are so important to me!)

If you’re anything like me you have every sparkly Badgley Mischka heel pinned on a wedding board on Pinterest! I knew I wanted a blush colored heel, something semi comfortable to walk in and a bit of sparkle. We went to Dilliard’s and it just so happened they were having a SALE! I tried every nude and blush heel I could find, closed toed, open toed, sandal, wedge, and heel you name it I tried it. My mom found the perfect pair of shoes thankfully in my size and brought them over to me and and these were all my shoe goals! They are Badgley Mischka, blush, open toed heels with the most beautiful details on the heels! A plus they were marked down from $268 to $80 y’all that is insane! I’m sharing my perfect shoes below along with some other options that I love!

What would y’all like to see next week on Wedding Wednesday? Let me know!

Perfect Plum Party Look

Happy Wednesday Everyone!

I’m shot some holiday looks recently and wanted to start sharing them since now is the time all your holiday parties and festivities are happening! Right? So to start off I’m going more subtle holiday with this plum dress from Bealls, that’s right Bealls. How fun is this dress? Simple with some fun detail up top making it a little sexy but still great for a work party! This look would even be cute with tights and booties for the office! Overall a super classy look for any occasion and can be paired with tons of different accessories, which is a plus!

I paired this look with my go to black pumps from Target! These babies are my perfect black heel and I need like 5 more pairs. for jewelry I used simple earrings with a fun bracelet both from Dillard’s clearance jewelry sale last Black Friday and a vintage clutch from a hole in the wall boutique to go with our metallic accessory vibe that’s happening!

I can’t wait to share more holiday inspired looks with you all! What are your go to looks for holiday parties and festivities? Let me know in the comments below!

Winter Wonderland

The final count down is upon us as Christmas is only a few days away! This is my final and favorite holiday look for you all leading up to Christmas! This is the perfect look for Christmas dinner or Christmas Eve cocktail hour, this look can even be perfect for New Year's Eve as well! Again, I kept this look super affordable as the top is from the Loft clearance section (a whole $2.75, like what?!), the skirt is from the Lauren Conrad Runway collection for Kohl's (on sale for $30), the heels are from Dillard's last year ($25), but I'll link some similar ones for you guys as well as the clutch is from a cute Sarasota boutique. This is literally my favorite look for the season, I hope you all enjoy it! 

I'll be traveling during the holiday, so I hope you all have a wonderful holiday and Happy New Year! I'm working on several fun new things for the new year and will be posting again once I get home from my holiday and birthday travels! 

Again a huge thanks to Emma Shourds Photography for capturing this look in front of the Dr. Phillips Center for the Performing Arts, here in Orlando!

This weekend we are hitting Disney Springs and the movies, and this is the perfect put together casual look for that!

Top 5 Everyday Jewelry Pieces!

I don't tend to wear a lot of jewelry on an everyday basis, however I love collecting pieces that are classic and can be worn for several different occasions! I am featuring a few of my favorite pieces for everyday looks below! I mostly stick to earrings and necklaces on a day to day basis, which is what you will see in this post. I will tell you the hands down best time to purchase otherwise expensive pieces for a steal is from Black Friday through the holidays. On the hush hush Dillard's has the best clearance section all the time but especially during the holiday season! We are talking Kate Spade, Kenneth Cole, Michael Kors and so many other name brands are on sale for amazing prices! I strongly recommend stopping into Dillard's next time you have the chance and glance at the jewelry section! 


Without a doubt you will never see me without earrings! Whether it be a simple pair of studs or a fun pair of ear jackets I always have earrings on. A look is not complete without some earrings to me! The two pairs below are Kate Spade and are so simple and elegant I adore them! I love a great simple stud earring that can go with any look. On the other hand I love when a piece can give you a pop of color and earrings are a great way to do that also!


The same thing goes for necklaces, I love ones that go with everything and are just silver or gold! I also have a huge obsession with long necklaces especially, because I think they are perfect for all seasons! They go with that summer maxi dress or that turtleneck sweater in the winter time. I'm showcasing two of my favorite long necklaces below, one colorless and one with a pop of color! Along with those I have one regular necklace that is the definition of dainty which I think every girl needs in her closet, don't you agree? We all have that one or two necklaces that makes you feel like a princess and the last piece is just that! 


Please let me know what your favorite jewelry pieces are in the comments below! Also I would to hear what your favorite shops are to find great deals on jewelry pieces!

Fall Fashion Favorites!

Sweater weather!...well at least for most of you! Here in Florida it's still hot and rainy but I'm optimistic that cooler weather is coming! This week I'm bringing you something different than you have seen thus far! I'm used to being behind the camera (usually photographing weddings and portraits) so I'm no expert at modeling. I'm bringing you two of my favorite looks for fall here in the Sunshine State! Every piece in these outfits is super affordable and easy to wear day or night! Please let me know what your favorite fall looks are below in the comments!
