Visiting Magnolia Home in Waco, Tx

FEATURED IN THIS POST:

Hi friends,

Hope you are doing well! This weekend my family and I met with my friend Alley and her family to visit Magnolia Market’s new addition Magnolia Home. If you know me I am a huge fan of all things Joanna Gaines. I was lucky enough to have met her and have dinner with her before she opened Magnolia Table. Check out this post here. When I found out she recently opened this section with her own furniture line I knew I had to visit. Best part its connected right next to Magnolia Press their new coffee shop! Check out some of the pictures below inside Magnolia Home.

One week till we are officially in fall. Can you believe how fast summer has flown by. I am officially back from NYFW and I can’t wait to share more, but today I wanted to share some transitional fall pieces with Abercrombie. You know how much I love Abercrombie, especially their shorts which I can’t stop wearing. I hadn’t shopped Abercrombie since I was in high school, but after having trouble finding high-rise shorts that fit my petite frame I came back to Abercrombie ten years later to find they not only had shorts that fit but cute fashion that fit my thirty year old style. Abercrombie is a true American classic that you can wear no matter your age. And today I’m sharing five Transitional Fall Pieces with Abercrombie. Check them out below!

Happy Labor Day!

For those who follow my Instagram and watch my Instagram then you might already know I am headed to New York Fashion Week this week! It has been a crazy whirlwind of a month, as I didn’t even plan on going. I think I would have felt super guilty for leaving my family if it wasn’t a work related trip with everything that’s been going on down here in Houston. Plus unless you have sponsors, it gets pretty pricey to go with clothes and travel expenses. Well long story short last month probably the end of July I started getting invites and offers from PR companies and brands I worked with for NYFW. I was fortunate to have my outfits sponsored for NYFW and to be able to work with an amazing hotel and restaurants for my NYFW City guide. I’m also excited to have an opportunity to work with some top beauty brands and share behind the scene looks for the runway shows. I will be sharing the full schedule details in the next post. But today I want to share what I am wearing to NYFW and 3 tips for staying organized while packing.

You can see it here on my Instagram. And on Sunday, we had the privileged of attending to Octoberfest at the King’s Biergartin with VIP media passes. It was so much fun, and the food was amazing! We even got a souvenir beer glass! The weekend definitely flew by but thank goodness for Columbus day, and for having the hubs home early from work, because this Monday will be a lazy day in for our little fam bam.

Hey guys, hope everyone had a great weekend. Unfortunately the rain cancelled some of our outdoor plans this weekend, but it gave us an excuse to stay in with family and watch football all day. Currently I have been obsessed with pleather leggings and platform heels, and lucky for me as a mom on a budget I found some for under $50. In fact these pleather leggings are on sale for $10! For a momma on the go and living in this Texas heat, this is one  pair of leggings that won’t restrict you. It is the perfect light weight leggings that will make you feel sexy this fall. Check out this full outfit and how I paired it up with these fun platform heels.

The Perfect Oversize sweater

Guys my heart has been heavy lately with all that is going on with on the news. As a blogger I feel God has given me my voice needs to be used to help those who cannot speak for themselves. Whether you agree or disagree with all the things that have been happening lately I hope we can all agree we need change. I pray that every one of us has the strength to stand up for what is right even when no one is looking, or listening. That we use the gifts God has given us to help those less fortunate. I pray as we come closer to elections that our country can come together and not be divided. I pray for peace. With all that being said I hope to inspire every one of you to be the difference the world needs today.

Now off of my soap box and back to what ya’ll all came here to read, the perfect oversized sweater for fall. Check out this look below and how I styled it with my favorite flare jeans!

Happy Monday! Hope you guys had a great weekend! Today I want to talk about one of my favorite trends for fall: camo. If there is one thing about being a Texas girl in the fall is that camo is always in. However this year it is actually making a fashion statement world-wide and is one of the hottest trends for fall. The olive patterns compliment any skin color. When I saw this camo jacket from Buckle (sorry it is already sold out, but linked similar styles below), I knew I had to have it. Not only is it a fun fashion statement, but it is also a great lightweight jacket you can dress up or dress down for the fall. Here is a fashionable way to dress up this camo jacket for a fun look for fall. Continue reading “How to Dress Up The Camo Jacket”
