Run! Do not walk to your nearest Target dollar spot!

Hi Ladies!
Quick one today! I was at my local Target, checking out the dollar spot, because, oh em gee, so much cute stuff right now! Anyway, I saw this cute tassel key chain. I couldn't have found this again if I was looking for it. It is the PERFECT shade of pink to go with my Louis Vuitton Neverfull MM, with the Pivione interior. Perfect match! I love the interior of my bag, it's like this exciting little surprise. It makes me happy every time I peek inside. This key chain is the perfect accessory, when clipped on the outside. I am always admiring the LV bag charms, but they are pricey. This little charm is the perfect pop of color for just three bucks! Can't beat that. They were available in other colors as well, and I imagine different stores will have different options. Go check out the Target dollar spot! They always have super cute finds! Until next time.

Love,
Kate

Rockstuds and Boyfriend Jeans for a Casual Date Night!

Hi Ladies!
My hubby and I went on a date tonight to check out the movie Don't Breathe! Holy thriller! I literally COULDN'T breathe!



I knew I wanted to be comfortable but still look put together. I went with the distressed "Georgia" boyfriend jeans by Lucky Brand Jeans. A simple black V neck Tee from Target. You just can't beat nine bucks for a classic Tee, and they are just, oh so soft. I finished the look off with the most gorgeous sandals ever, in my humble opinion. 
I accessorized with simple gold bangles, also from Target, to help pick up on the gold details in the sandals. I also carried my Louis Vuitton Neverfull MM, with the limited pivione interior. On the way to the cinema, I also wore my white bow Chanel sunglasses. The white bow sunglasses aren't available anymore, but I've linked to a similar pair. These sunglasses truly are a classic, they will always be in style.
These boyfriend jeans by Lucky Brand, or any jeans by Lucky for that matter, are unbelievably comfortable. I didn't realize Lucky did plus sizes until fairly recently. Ever since I found out, I haven't looked back. They play a pivotal role in my wardrobe these days. They are so soft. Noticing a theme here? I love soft clothing. Who wants to be sitting, or dancing, or dining in anything scratchy and uncomfortable? These jeans don't cut into you when you sit down, as there is lots of stretch. In fact, I would recommend sizing down, they are very forgiving. I am normally a size 16W and the 14W is still very loose on my hips and butt. I can't imagine better jeans for tonight's date, as I was sitting for a almost two hours. They're really like fashionable pajama pants! I purchased mine from Nordstrom and have linked to them below. As well as a few alternatives. The version I am featuring in this post, are currently on sale, and limited sizes remain. I promise you won't be disappointed if you purchase them! But even if they aren't your cup of tea, Nordstom offers free return shipping! So give them a try.
While we're on the subject of giving things a try! Go check out the movie Don't Breathe! It was so good! I was on the edge of my seat from the opening scenes. It was money well spent for this mama who doesn't get to the cinema often. That's all for now! Be on the lookout for my first YouTube video which is soon to follow! I can't wait to get to know you all better.

Love, Kate

Summer Date Night!

My husband and I went out for a lovely date night. I just LOVE to get all dressed up. Being a stay at home mom, makes me just crave getting all dolled up and fancy. I adore this chiffon, sleeveless dress from ASOS Curve. ASOS Curve is one of my most favorite places to shop for dresses. They really know what they're doing. This is a timeless classic. I know I'll still be able to wear this dress for years to come. The cut of this dress is super forgiving of my mama belly and is just, oh so flattering. The layers of chiffon fabric are to die for. So luxurious and soft. It really makes me feel like a princess. It's perfect for summer, as it is so light and flowy. I paired it with another timeless classic. My Jimmy Choo Champagne Vamp heels. Now, these are not the cheapest of shoes. Mine were a present from my husband several years ago and I cherish them. In fact they're a bit hard to find now. Although if you really search, they are out there. However I have found some wonderful look a likes and linked to them below. Jimmy Choo has actually done a similar shoe, the "Lottie" sandal and I've included the link to those for you as well. Go check out the gorgeous selection of dresses at ASOS Curve. I could literally sit for hours and browse. And sometimes, I do.

Love,
Kate

The Utility Vest!

The Utility Vest!

As we are heading into my favorite season, especially where fashion is concerned, we simply have to talk about the utility vest! They are so versatile and literally go with almost anything. You can dress them up or dress them down. They're the perfect piece to complete, oh so many, different looks. I'll be showing many different ways to style this vest in the coming weeks. I purchased this olive vest last fall from Macy's, I've included a link to a similar vest below. In today's post, I've paired it with black skinny jeans from Nordstrom, by NYDJ, a black and white stripped Breton top, from J. Crew, and Tory Burch leopard print wedges, as well as my Louis Vuitton Neverfull MM. I absolutely cannot wait to share the versatility of this vest with you all this season! Click the photos below to shop the look!

Love,
Kate

Can girls of any size rock a shirt dress?

Hi Everyone! It's Kate!

I don't know about you, but I have some junk in the trunk, and I definitely have hips. So I've always been intimidated by dresses that aren't an A line, or an empire waist, and at least knee length. Well, I decided to give a shirt dress a try, and I LOVED it! My husband and I were having a lunch date, at a local restaurant on the river. It was a bit chilly, and we also wanted to walk around a bit after lunch. I decided to give the shirt dress a try and accessorize it up a bit.

I didn't want to spend a ton on a new dress that I wasn't sure I was going to really love. As luck would have it, I was in my local Walmart grabbing a box of diapers for my baby, and I walked right past this gem! A nice dark denim and a pretty decent fabric. It has a belt that ties at the waist which really helped to accentuate my waist line. It has cute button details on the arms as well as the chest. It's a simple, classic dress.



I paired it with my J Crew puffer vest in the color "poppy" and a check scarf by Burberry and my gorgeous red Hunter wellies. Side note: If you have wider calves like I do, check out Hunter's "Huntress" boots. I purchased mine from Nordstrom. They accommodate larger calves and are oh so comfy. I also went with black tights due to the chillier weather.

If I can rock this dress, so can you! I found it to be very flattering and also super comfy. I look forward to styling this dress a million different ways.

Love, Kate 💋
