Make sure you’ve got a great nude summery heel for all of your warm water outfits! Every time you turn around you’ll be wanting to grab them! My favorite styling bit about nude heels: they make your legs appear longer because they’re less of a contrast to your skin tone and don’t make your foot look cut off from the rest of your leg! Sorry for that ‘cut off’ visual but also you’re welcome. Happy nudie tip day! .

You don’t have to utilize a specific item for the way it’s intended, styling it in a way that makes you FEEL amazing will automatically make you look amazing! Trousers don’t only mean you have to wear a collared shirt and pump, try dressing them up strappy heels & going casual on top or dress them down with loafers or sneakers when going dressier on top. .

Obsessed with these suit sets! Wear them sporty with a hoodie underneath & some sneaks or dressy with a blouse & strappy heel! Or go grunge and do a graphic tee and doc martens, buying basics gives you endless options for styling! .

Raw hem denim & heels allllllll day long YASSSS! Clear, strappy heels are amazing for shorter gals that want to elongate their legs. Denim with personality, like a raw hem or flared leg, adds an easy visual element that immediately gives your outfit flair you don’t have to put extra thought into! It’s all in the intentional details, my friend! .

For all my ladies that love a wardrobe full of T-shirt’s & denim, accessories are your best bud! Layered necklaces, rings, bracelets (or all of the above!!) pair beautifully with the simple look of a tee & jeans. Dainty, chunky, charmed, mixed metals paired with solids, prints or graphic tees – it all works! I love accessories, they’re the simplest way to dress up your comfiest outfits & express your personal style even further! .

I don’t love pink. But I sure am wearing a lot of it in this picture! (Happy Vday!!) This obnoxious jacket gave me so much life last winter! It was bright & warm & sassy and all of the things I needed it to be to make me feel happy! Guys, that’s what it’s all about – this life. It’s about living happy and letting it ooze (even though that’s the worst word in the English language) from every facet of our being so we can spread it around and mix it in and let it overpower all the confusion and discord in the world around us. Every day we have a choice to make – to contribute to our grumpy, judgmental world or to stand up for something that creates life & leaves an impact, a legacy of delight & fulfillment. I choose happy! I choose to silence judgements, to embrace differences in people, to wear a baby pink jacket when I feel like it, dang it & to not leave room for comparison or self doubt. I’m worth it and so are you. .

THIS, you guys! Truth! Only a liar can make you feel isolated in a world full of people fighting the same battles as you. Depression, anxiety, divorce, miscarriage, grief, insecurity, self doubt, fear… we’ve ALL experienced something that’s left us broken. Every. Single. One of us. (Yeah, it’s gettin’ real up in here.) The catch is that most of the time we to choose shame and isolation from our brokenness over believing that it doesn’t define us or determine our future. A perfect Insta photo is lovely but it’s too easy to hide behind & we can’t maintain a life that appears beautiful when everything behind the scene is falling apart. It took me a long time to stop feeling shame for miscarrying 3 of my 6 babies. Who told me that was MY fault?! Who says you deserved to be abused? Who said you aren’t good enough to chase after that dream? Those are lies that too commonly take the place of our truths – that we are beautiful, we are desirable, we are strong, we’re fighters, we’re creative & fierce and capable! These truths & lies bleed into every area of our lives including how we dress & carry ourselves. Welcome to my WHY! I don’t believe that any woman should wear clothes that lie to her every single day & tell her she’s not worth looking good and feeling good. Clothes that make her feel unattractive & uninspired. Not when it’s something we can work on gaining control of. Clothes trigger our insecurities or they make us feel confident! Go through your clothes, don’t hold onto the things that keep you feeling uninspired. Save a little money & replace that item with something that makes you feel killer incredible! Even if it’s just one piece at a time, eventually your wardrobe can be a safer place for you. I want that for you with all of my heart! .

I’m gunna just say it, yeah, I am – just going to lay it out… I am not a very good Instagrammer, in fact I’ve really despised this platform off and on…
I’m a business owner, a great mom, a new (and addicted) reader of novels (please tell me you’ve read The Woman in The Window!), professional iced coffee drinker, newbie to hiking and willing to give those things my all – but Instagram… Wow, I have given it the bare min of my energy. But that’s going to change, not just for my own sake! Because I have things in my heart and in my profession that I want to share with you and I’m done letting uncertainty of this platform hinder me. I’m excited about sharing styling stuff with you! Excited to help you learn what creates someone’s personal style and the work that goes into it! I’m also really excited to put my heart into it, because for me those two things go hand in hand… my work and my heart. Cheers to my first work meeting today since our move to SD! Cheers to fresh starts and personal growth, cheers to showing up for other people and offering what we have to the world to make a healthy difference! And CHEERS to chasing after dreams and kicking fear in the buttcheek.
