This course is a passion project of mine. When I started blogging almost 5 years ago I couldn’t find a course or anything that taught me how to start blogging and everything I needed. Therefore I’ve put all my knowledge and what I wish someone would’ve told me into this course for you!

My blog has truly changed my life and allowed me to quit my 9-5 job and work from anywhere! Last year I quit my job, moved to my dream city and started really building the life I wanted to live! You can do this too! Sign up for my course today to start creating the life you want to live!

Everyday Look & Home Décor

Happy Wednesday friends!

This week I wanted to share an easy everyday look with you, whether you are working from home or running errands around town this is an easy look from LC Lauren Conrad that I’m loving!

It’s no secret I love LC Lauren Conrad for Kohl’s and these pieces are no exception. I love a good pair of jeans and a t-shirt and her line kills it every time! The denim is my favorite and runs true to size with so many different washes and styles perfect for every shape and size! I appreciate that the t-shirts are a little longer so you can style those several ways to, whether you prefer a front tuck, un-tucked, or knotted on the side the length of these T’s are perfect. This has been my work from home uniform if I feel like changing it up from sweats and know I’m going somewhere this is it!

I’m also working on styling our new bar cart from Ashley Home Store and I decorated it a little bit for Valentine’s day but now I’m back to looking for normal decor for it and how I can style it better! Let me know if you have any suggestions for decorating a bar cart and what is a must for you!

Valentine's Day Inspo

Happy Valentine’s Week Friends!

I wanted to share an easy Valentine’s look as most of us are still staying in and keeping things casual for Valentine’s Day! I’m loving all these pieces from LC Lauren Conrad for Kohls these pieces are perfect for the holiday and the heart bag is extra fun touch!

Y’all know what I think about LC’s denim, it’s the best and love that it’s affordable and comes in tons of colors and styles! This top is perfect for the office or going out and the sweater comes in a few different color combos and is super comfortable and perfect for layering if you live in cooler climates.

You can find all these pieces over at Kohl’s and pick up your Valentine’s Day look!

Happy Holidays!

Happy Christmas Eve Eve friends!

I hope y’all are enjoying the holiday season even though it looks different for a lot of us this year. It’s very different for us as we usually travel up north to visit family and to stay safe we are staying home in Florida this year. That being said we appreciate the opportunity to stay home and enjoy our new place and our décor. Living so close to my parents again we’ve gotten to really soak in the holiday traditions and festivities that are usually rushed, which has been amazing!

We will be doing our own Christmas Eve here at our place and celebrating Christmas with my parents! I’ve really enjoyed decorating our new place for the holidays and this is a look at our tree and some of the decorating!

I hope you have a great holiday however you are celebrating! Lot’s of love!

My Everyday Fall Look From LC Lauren Conrad

Hi friends! Hope y’all are doing well!

I wanted to share my everyday fall look that I feel is great no matter where you live in most cases. These are all pieces from LC Lauren Conrad for Kohl’s that are perfect to have in your closet no matter the time of year. Here in the sunshine state these layers are great for fall and going into winter. I’ve been loving the olive green and the details on this jacket are the cutest. Paired with this polka dot foil top and the perfect pair of denim it doesn’t get better. The shoes are also the best for running around in and I seriously need them in every color!

Let me tell you more about the denim though. LC Lauren Conrad has updated their jeans and sizing and this is now my FAVORITE pair of jeans in my closet! These are the Feel Good High Rise Skinny Jeans in the Jasmine Wash. literal perfect I tell you! They are true to size you could actually probably size down one if needed. I take a 12 Short but could probably also do a 10 Short as well and absolutely love them!

Also more on these fabulous shoes. Does anyone else get Mary-Kate and Ashley vibes? I’m obsessed! Also seriously so comfortable and I think you could take these from running around town to the office to out especially in the black, these are the Obsidian Women’s Block Heel Sandals, a must have!

What are your must have pieces for fall?

Summer 2020 Recap

As summer comes to close even though here in the sunshine state it’s boiling hot, I wanted to give an ode to summer as it is my favorite season next to winter! The whole year has been a bit different but summer especially was different for me and my family! Summer is the time we vacation and visit family up north which is unfortunately on the back burner until regulations change on some things. It’s been a tough season this year.

However some really exciting things have happened this summer! I hired a business coach at the start of summer and she has brought me into a new season of working for myself! This summer all within a couple of month’s Travis lost his job, started an amazing new job, and I left my job to pursue my passion, y’all it’s unreal to think this is our life right now!

So just remember no matter how tough things get there is something better coming! I promise! You just need to believe it!

Summer Wrap Up

Happy Wednesday Friend!

As summer comes to an end here even though in Florida it will still be hot for a while longer, I’m sharing one of my favorite dresses from this summer! I’ve loved LC Lauren Conrad’s wrap dresses for the last few years now! A classic wrap dress is a staple for me in my closet! Wrap dresses are flattering on everyone and so easy to wear. Dress it up with some cute wedges or down with some fun sandals or sneakers.

This style dress is a must have! As we head into fall you can still pair this with some cute booties and a denim jacket and take it into fall season if you are somewhere the seasons change.

I’ll be moving into fall fashion as well as maybe some fall recipes and would love to know what you would like to see here on the blog! Let me know!

LC Lauren Conrad- Apartment Refresh Pt. 3

Happy Wednesday Friend!

We are wrapping up the apartment refresh this week here on the blog! Final room we are covering is the bathroom, another room that is super easy to refresh on a budget, think shower curtain, towels, rugs, etc. LC Lauren Conrad has such great option to refresh your bathroom and at great prices too and the quality y’all know if amazing!

I’m a lover of pastels so these pieces really spoke to me! The tropical pastel shower curtain paired with the textured hand towels and the super soft bath mat, highly recommend and again it won’t break the bank!

We live in a one bedroom apartment so when we do have friends over they use our bathroom so we really try to keep it clean and put together and these simple things make it that much nicer of a room.

That concludes our apartment refresh! I had the best time collaborating with LC Lauren Conrad and Kohl’s on this and hope y’all enjoy it and do your own affordable home or apartment refresh!

Spring Fashion Florals

Happy Wednesday Babes!

Summer fashion is headed your way but I have another cute spring dress from LC Lauren Conrad that is cute for spring and summer. Y’all know I love soft pastels and this light yellow is something a little different for me! I love the balloon sleeve detail and floral print paired with these super sweet block heels and the cutest wicker heart bag. I love this for something a little more fancy, again great for weddings or brunch.

Y’all know I love dresses for spring and summer, I practically live in them because it is just to hot in Florida to bother with anything else. This is is another super light easy to wear fit, as we get more into summer you’ll definitely see more bold colors and prints from me as that’s what I love for summer!

Daydreams of Summer!

Wishing it was Spring Break and that we were cruising somewhere tropical! Anyone else?!

The hardest part about this whole thing is this girl thrives being by the water, y’all know I was born and raised in a beach town and it’s ingrained in my soul, the water is a part of me and not being able to go home and visit my parents or go to the beach is heart breaking!

I’ll be packing this outfit on the first trip we can take when this is all over! I found the LC Lauren Conrad romper on clearance over the winter and love it and the banana print, I paired it with some fun fringe sandals and the cutest spring hat! Again everything is from Kohl’s mostly all from last year but they have tons of cute similar items right now!

Dreaming of summer and a normal world again! I want to travel and go to restraunts again, visit my parents and the beach! I want all the things! Anyone else!?

Go Bananas! -LC Lauren Conrad Look

Happy Wednesday Friends!

As spring is approaching I’m pulling out all the dresses! I absolutely love a t-shirt dress and this one from LC Lauren Conrad is super fun with the banana print! I actually picked this up this winter at Kohl’s on clearance! You can still find it online for $10 it’s a steal! Something here in Florida I can wear all year long especially spring and summer! We all love pieces that can be worn all throughout the year and honestly here in the sunshine state I wear a lot of dresses!

I paired it with some LC Lauren Conrad rose gold sandals and my favorite amazon clear bag from last year! This is perfect for brunch or running errands! Also would be cute paired with a denim jacket and sneakers too for a more casual look! T-shirt dresses are great for all figures and I love that this one has the cute print and tie sleeves, the fabric is a dream too!

This year I’m focusing on being more intentional with my purchases and that goes for clothes too! Shopping my closet more and donating more if I want to purchase some new things! I’m definitely paying more attention to what I’m spending money on!

I’m so excited to share more spring fashion with y’all over the next few months!
