  Shorts that combine gingham AND lemon print?! Count me in!

Patchwork Floral Midi Dress

I have a serious weakness for any kind of vintagey floral print.  This dress has the cutest floral prints, bright summery colors, and darling details like tassel ties at the shoulders.  I also love the flowy silhouette that will be perfect for my growing bump this summer!  You can definitely size down with this dress due to the very forgiving cut (plus the straps are adjustable too!).  Shop all my outfit details using the links above + below!

Laidback Lilac

     I've found the perfect transitional top to tide you over through the last few weeks (hopefully) of chilly weather.  This oversized thermal can be worn a variety of ways and is so soft and cozy!  I love the knotted look but you can also wear it buttoned all the way down, or layer over a tee or cami and unbutton it like a cardigan.  It comes in a variety of colors but this springy lilac was my favorite (although I'm sure I'll be snagging one or two more colors soon!).   You can shop all my outfit details linked above + below!

Denim + Sheer Spring Floral Blouse

   We've getting peeks of spring here in Kentucky (but mostly LOTS of rain) and I could not be more ready for some sunny, warm weather!  This time of year I'm all about bridging that gap between winter and spring with transitional outfits.  This blouse from Gathered Mercantile vendor, Blush Box Co., is perfect for spring with the cutest floral embroidery details and sheer material.  A denim jacket is my go-to for layering with lighter-weight spring pieces while it's still colder out.

The Best Trader Joe's Beauty Products Haul: Part I

Good ol' TJ's is one of my favorite places to grab groceries, fresh flowers, and my dog's favorite treats, but who knew they would become my go-to for some amazing and affordable beauty products too?!  I usually go to Trader Joe's at least once a week, sometimes more, and over the past couple of weeks I've picked up a few beauty items each visit.  So far, I've loved everything I have tried and will definitely be buying all of these again (especially since everything is under $10)!  Unfortunately Trader Joe's doesn't sell online, so I can't link these but be sure to check out your local Trader Joe's for these items!  Some of them are newer and are just being rolled out in stores, so if they're not available in your area yet- they will be soon!  I've given a quick review and rundown of each item below.  Have you tried any of these products yet? Which are your favorites?

Valentine's Day

     Happy Valentine's Day!  This fun shoot with pops of pastel + red was one of my favorites to date!  I knew I wanted to shoot in front of one of my favorite houses in Lexington in Gratz Park.  This home reminds me of a Charleston house on rainbow row!  The star of my outfit is this faux fur pastel jacket (which I snagged on clearance at Target!).  Since it's currently not online, I linked tons of similar options below!  I paired it with another Target fave, this mock neck sweater (also seen here) which was the perfect pop of red to match my heart balloons!  I've also been loving Maybelline's new matte ink lipcolors, and this Heroine shade is the perfect bright red!  You can shop all of my outfit details which are linked for you above + below!
