I am happy to see that Mirrored Aviators are making a come back just in time for Spring. I absolutely love wearing them in green, blue or pink hues. I am often wearing black or gray so this is a fun way to add some color to my look without being too much.
Speaking of wearing black, it's no surprise that I'm sporting my favorite neutral again. This twist top is my favorite shirt right now. I usually never wear wrap shirts (fear of being too low!), but I couldn't pass this one up. It's super flattering and great for any occasion. This is definitely something I will be wearing well into Spring.

Be Mine
Happy day of love! Whether you're a fan of Valentine's Day or not, I hope everyone has a happy day and enjoys a sweet treat or two. Isn't that what the holiday is all about?
As a teacher, it's pretty much obligatory that I get in to every holiday. No one likes a teacher who doesn't get excited about holiday festivities! While it may be exhausting at the end of the day, I am excited for a day filled with parties, exchanging Valentine's, and of course chocolate.
However you spend your Valentine's day, I hope you feel loved!

Navy & Pink
Ready or not, dress season is on it's way. The time to sport higher hemlines and open-toed shoes. While, temps outside may say otherwise, Spring will be here before we know it. Personally, I can't wait! Wishful thinking has me planning a beach vayca and of course, scoping out some colorful spring dresses.
Anthropologie has an amazing collection of spring dresses right now. This little number caught my eye when I was looking for something to wear for the Glitter Guide Valentine's Brunch. I love the bold colors and the fit of the dress. Something tells me this dress will be worn heavily throughout the spring and summer season.

Python Blouse
Have you ever had that blouse in your closet that is just your "go to" favorite? Well, this is mine. As you know I am a huge fan of animal print and neutrals, so when this snakey number from The Impeccable Pig came my way, I couldn't pass it up. Sadly, this blouse is not available online anymore, but I have compiled some similar options below.
Snake is such a great print because it's essentially a neutral and can be worn alone or with bold colors. This ombre version from Equipment is adorable. How fun would this be with a flare skirt? Whether you go neutral or bright, either way is a great choice in my book.

Gray Stripes
The weather has been so gloomy this past weekend. Not to mention freezing! I only ventured out for a short bit and when I did I was sure to bring this warm blanket coat. I scooped this up last month (on major sale) at Old Navy, and would love to have it in every color. This necklace is also worth mentioning. Emily and Katelyn are the girls behind Reece & Blaire, aka my favorite jewelry ever! This necklace makes the perfect statement. Made from natural stones, you can only expect the best quality from R&B. I couldn't resist the blush pink with the gold. My favorite color combo!

Valentine’s Gifting
With Valentine's quickly approaching, it's easy to default to traditional favorites like chocolates and roses. But why not take a different approach? Uncommon Goods is my new favorite online store for it's unique and fun collection of gifts. I have narrowed down some favorites for all you Valentines out there. These would be perfect for the upcoming holiday.
For the Ladies: Uncommon Goods has a fantastic collection of home goods and accessories. I was instantly drawn to these gorgeous agate coasters. The colors are so beautiful and would make a great addition to any bar cart or coffee table. This print is a cool view of NYC and the pops of color make for a nice touch. I have been looking everywhere for a slate cheese board that you can write on with chalk, this one is perfect. If you are obsessed with candles like myself, this White Tee Fig & Tabacco candle smells amazing and it actually doubles as a solid perfume and body butter. The wax is made from an organic blend of coconut, palm, ...
Valentine’s Brunching
Today I am thrilled to finally share these pictures with you! A few weekends ago a few of my favorite bloggers came to Dallas for a weekend of girl time, brunching, and shopping! We hosted this beautiful brunch in the heart of Dallas at the Posh Floral Studio and had the best time. Between sips and treats, we pretty much decided great friends are the best kind of Valentine! Of course, a new pair of shoes doesn't hurt either. For more pictures be sure to visit The Glitter Guide.
