Dress Season
Spring is here and that means dresses are here to stay. I don't know about you, but I am definitely ready to get back into the ease of wearing a dress. This maxi dress by Catch Bliss Boutique is the perfect solution for a Spring dress. It is so easy – doesn’t require any type of ironing, feels literally like wearing a nightgown, and can be easily be dressed up. I can already tell that it is going to be a new staple in my closet and think I may have to get it in the red version as well. I can easily see me wearing this dress with a denim jacket or a leather moto jacket. In the summertime this will be the ideal type of piece to just throw on with a pair of sandals and go.

Joules | Rain Boots
Some items in your wardrobe are just considered necessities. A nice winter coat, a LBD, and a pair of rain boots. Since the weather in Dallas has been so gloomy, it was only fitting that I pull out my Joules Rain Boots. I finally got my hands on a pair and I was pretty excited at the chance to wear them.
This is my first pair, so I went with classic black and gold. I love the glossy finish and the touch of gold. For a more colorful option, you should check out some of these. Joules has a great selection of prints and colors that would be perfect for Spring. With a rainy season ahead, it might be worth your investment to pick up a pair.

I Duffle Dare You
In anticipation for Spring, I couldn't resist a bright floral dress, white blazer, and a great leather bag. I have been looking for a duffle/crossbody for quite a while. And when I came across Kelly Wynne Handbags, I knew I found the right one. The "I Duffle Dare You" bag was just what I was looking for. The navy embossed leather was a a fun spin on a traditional leather bag and I love that it can be worn in more than one way, as seen here.
Her collection of bags is nothing less than fabulous. Not only are her bags 100% leather, but everything is made in the USA. What bags are you feeling this season? I would love to hear your feedback! Please check out Kelly's new collection and let me know some of your favorite bags and colors! I am loving the Mingle Mingle Mini and the Risky Biz Wristlet... What are some of your favorites?
Beauty Talk | Kate Somerville
Right now, I am focusing on getting the healthiest skin possible. I Clarisonic three times a week, use Glam Glow (review coming soon!) and now I am trying Kate Somerville. This is a brand you need to know! Skin care is a huge part of my daily routine and I am always on the hunt for the latest and greatest in the skin care world. Everyone has unique skin, and Kate has developed a variety of products all based on different skin types. Using top-of-the-line ingredients, she ranks very high in the industry.
After experimenting with her different products, I found these to be the ones that worked best for me. The Purify Clarifying Cleanser is amazing. It's a cream based cleanser and totally removes every last trace of makeup. It's soft and gentle so it doesn't irritate my skin. The Nourish Daily Moisturizer is super light and gentle. I only use one pump and it is enough to cover my entire face. I like it because it contains Vitamin A, C and E, Retinyl and antioxidants to keep skin healthy and smooth. I still struggle with breakouts so this light-weight formula is great for my combination skin. Every item in Kate's skincare line has been developed in the Clinic, scientifically tested, and ...
Spring Jackets
One of my favorite parts about Spring, is the soft neutrals and pastel colors. Since it's still chilly in Dallas (hello, there is ice on the ground) these Spring inspired jackets are a must. I picked this Teal Woven Moto Jacket up from Zara last Spring, and it has since been a closet favorite. While the nights are still a little chilly, it makes the perfect transition piece as we move to Spring. River Island makes this great pink version (love the detail) and of course you can't go wrong with Tory Burch.
When wearing a bold print, I like to keep everything else pretty simple. Nude pumps, neutral graphic tee, and delicate jewelry. This Double Trouble Necklace from Oia Jules, is the perfect amount of delicate and edge. I am such a fan of dainty, gold jewelry and Oia Jules doesn't disappoint!
Silver Letters
Monogrammed jewelry is something we are seeing everywhere. Whether it's a necklace or ring, it's the hot thing right now. Groopdealz has this silver initial necklace on sale today only. It's a different take on the "script" trend but I love the simple block lettering. I have a gold version similar to this necklace and it is something I never take off. I wear it alone or layer it up with other necklaces...it's a classic! To get yours, check out Groopdealz. You won't regret it.

Shopping Is My Cardio
It's probably not a surprise to you that I like to shop. I mean, what girl doesn't? This shirt caught my eye immediately and I thought it was perfect not only to wear as a cute top with jeans, but also for a work out. I can't really "run run" like my sis in law, Megan.
My newest obsession has been Pure Barre. You may have seen me post about it here. I love it because it's actually something I can do. I've joined gyms in the past and (unfortunately) wasted my money, but this is something I actually look forward to. The class is an hour of intense, small movement exercises focusing on strength and core. Who knew that lifting three pound weights in small one inch lifts could actually do something? Stay tuned for more information on Pure Barre and how you can get involved! Until then, this top is from Jane, I also have some similar options below. XX

You’re A Fox
I am a sucker for good packaging. So when it comes to snail mail, I only choose the prettiest and best stationary. After all, who doesn't like receiving pretty mail? When I came across this set of letter press cards, it was love at first sight. So much, that I am almost too scared to write on them for fear I will mess up! (I actually think I may end up framing a few for decoration.) With the gold foil writing and neon pink border, what's not to love?
These cards are currently sold out, but Jane is hoping to bring them back soon. To stay in the loop, be sure to subscribe to jane.com! They have new products daily, so you don't want to miss out! XX
