PONCHO & A CUP OF JO
Happy Thursday everyone! I have teamed up with ntyls.com to do a $20 gift card giveaway to their online store so head over to my Instagram page (here) to see how you can enter. This poncho I am wearing above is from them and I adore it sooooo much. I styled it with a grey skirt, polka dot tights, hunter rain boots and a fun necklace for a cozy touch. I am obsessing over tights lately and I think a pair of printed tights make an outfit so fun. This poncho is so cozy and warm. I noticed that ...
DRESSEMBER
Hello friends, happy Wednesday to everyone. I will be teaming up with Dressember to embrace the unique femininity and freedom that all women deserve. I will wear a dress everyday of the month of December to raise awareness and funds in hope to oppose worldwide trafficking and exploitation of women all over the world. This is so much bigger than a dress. Last year they raised $165k and this year they hope to raise $500k. I am so excited to be a part of this cause and cannot wait to share my daily ...

REMINDER TO BE GRATEFUL
Happy Tuesday! Its almost Thanksgiving so decided to do a shoot on what to wear for dinner. I love this classy look. I found this amazing skirt from Goodwill a few months ago for $2.00 and thought it would be perfect for the holidays. If you don't have a long skirt like this one you can literally use any dressy skirt and it will still look stunning. I also added this long sleeve crop top I found at Forever 21 for $9.00 and that top isn't even on sale. I love it so much. To accessorize I added ...
TRIBAL & STRIPES
Happy Friday! I am loving this look! Doesn't stripes and tribal go amazing together? I think so. I bought this jacket last year and totally forgot about it. That is until I was getting ready for my photo-shoot and started starring at my closet on what to put together and found it. You should of seen the look on my face when I saw it, haha seriously I'm a weirdo. I paired this jacket with a simple striped black and white dress (by the way you need to stop by Target I got this dress for $6). ...
