This season, I have been on the hunt for classic, oversized turtleneck sweaters. It seems like last year I found several options at Free People or H&M (this is still one of my favorites) but this season, I've had a hard time finding exactly what I wanted. Winter is still here in Texas and there's nothing I look forward to wearing more this time of year than my chunky sweaters. Is there anything cozier than soft knits? ...
Cream Textured Cardigan
It's no secret that I love cardigans. I've worn my fair share of the classic cardigan back in my teaching days, but I love this Textured Wool Cardigan from French Connection. I also am excited to share that it is an extra 30% off code "XTRA30".
I've been wearing this cardigan non stop. It's an unexpected twist on the classic style we all know, and is the perfect option to throw over a blouse or sweater. If you're liking the monochromatic look, I suggest pairing it with these ivory cords and these metallic flats (or these nude flats).
Thanks for stopping by! xx

The Layered Sweater
A few weeks ago, I wore this layered sweater during our girls weekend in Denver. At the time, it was too warm to wear in Dallas, so I was excited to have the opportunity to sport this top while in Colorado.
This layered look is a go-to for me during the fall. You may have noticed that I love oversized sweaters or tops and this one takes the cake with the built in layered hem!
A few of you asked about the details from our trip to Denver, so I wanted to be sure and tell you guys about our favorite places. My favorite place for brunch was Snooze. We went to the location near Union Station and really liked walking around the building while we waited for our table. The omelets and pancakes were amazing! We had the best time here. I highly recommend checking it out. If you're looking for a unique lunch experience be sure to check out Avanti. Think indoor food trucks, with a cozy, vintage atmosphere. The rooftop bar was pretty also pretty neat and gave us a great view. For dinner, we loved eating at Linger (tip: make reservations). The food was delicious and perfect for sharing. If you're in the mood for a sweet treat be sure to hit up Little Man Ice Cream. Even if it is freezing outside, it's still worth ...
Laser-Cut Details
After a fun weekend in Denver, I am back home and trying to get in the swing of things. Have I mentioned how much I love Denver? Some of my best friends and I went to celebrate my friends 30th birthday! It is a beautiful place and I could not get over the gorgeous scenery.
I wanted to share a look that I wore last week in Dallas. While this all black look may not be for everyone, I can't help but love a monochromatic look. My closet is highly dominated by neutrals and while try to have a good balance, I always reach for those classic colors. This all black look is one of my favorites. I love the laser-cut details on this dress. It's feminine but also gives off an edgy vibe. While all black can sometimes seem boring, I find that if you mix in textures and different lengths, it can still feel sophisticated and complete the look.

Chambray & White
Good morning! I hope everyone is having a great week. Sorry for being a little quiet lately. This is a very busy week with with school and I am spending my extra time focusing on my classroom! While those snow days were nice, us teachers are all now scrambling between conference makeups (our parent/teacher conferences happened to fall on one of the snowdays!) and rescheduling Open House on Thursday. Let's just say...come on Friday!
In the meantime, let me tell you about my love for chambray. I really can't pass up a good chambray top. This Chambray Blouse (50% OFF with code BESTSALE1 ) was hit the second I saw it hanging on the rack. Don't you love those moments? I love the fit and length. I kept it simple and threw on my go to White Pants and Cross Body Bucket Bag. Sometimes it's nice just going back to the basics.
Thanks for reading! xx

Mint & Stripes
I know I am not the only one who is dreaming of warmer weather. Especially today when I look out to see yet another ice day. Lately, I have been so bored with my tan and black outwear. Pastels are a huge trend right now and I am loving it. Wishful thinking that Spring in near I guess. This pink coat that I wore last month, was one of my favorites. It was a nice break from the typical winter outwear, and I have not stopped wearing it. I wanted to find another pastel color and this mint coat was perfect! It is a very unexpected color for me, but I thought it was fun and a great color for spring. Plus it's under $50! See below for more colored coats all under 50 bucks. Stay warm! xx

Little Black Dress
Every girl needs that perfect little black dress. Finding the right LBD is essential to every wardrobe. I can't tell you how many times I have needed a cocktail dress and "can't find anything to wear". When that happens, I always turn to my trusted LBD.
I love this one by French Connection at Nordstrom. The style in timeless and it's a dress that can take you from season to season. I plan on wearing this many times throughout the season with my faux fur coat, tights and heels. Be sure to check out my other favorite holiday dresses here! Happy shopping! xx
