Helping women love what they wear on a budget

How to Style a Spring Moto Jacket

April 21, 2021 by Katie Haller

Hi Friends!  I am pretty excited about todays outfit post.  With the weather finally warming up I’ve been trying to get more outfit photos done outside.  I take all my photos myself and it’s not always easy to find a spot I feel comfortable setting up my tripod and taking pictures in an outfit, but I’ve been scoping out a few places and testing them out.  It helps having Anna as my little assistant in her stroller.  She makes me feel a little more comfortable in front of the camera and always makes me smile.

Mom-Friendly Outfits Wearing White Jeans

April 17, 2021 by Katie Haller

Mom-Friendly Outfits Wearing White Jeans
Are you afraid to wear white?  As a mom, I totally get it!  I’m terrified of white.  I always spill something on myself whenever I wear white.  But I love white! Especially white jeans!  They just brighten up your whole outfit.  Even though I believe that white jeans are appropriate to wear year round, I really love to wear them in the spring. Read more

Fabletics Athleisure Outfit

Fabletics Athleisure Outfit

Hi Friends! Last week I felt like I needed a little break from blogging.  I don’t know why, but I was feeling a little overwhelmed.  Normally I get excited to start a new month and plan out all my blog content, but this month I just wasn’t feeling it.  I’ve had a lot on my mind and my blog just needed to not be one of the things I was focusing on.  Sometimes that’s just what I need.  A short break to reset.  This week I’m refocusing and planning out some new posts for the month, so I hope you enjoy what I have coming up in the next few weeks.  I’m just trying to take it one post at a time and not overwhelm myself.  Read more

March Instagram Round Up

April 1, 2021 by Katie Haller

March Instagram Round Up

Happy April!  I can’t believe that March has come and gone.  March in the Midwest is always a curve ball.  You never know if it will start warming up or if you will get a spring snow storm.  Luckily this March was a pleasant surprise weather wise.  I’m loving the warmer days and the sunshine!  We’ve been able to get out to the park more often which has been so nice with the kids.

How to Wear White Sneakers

March 17, 2021 by Katie Haller

Affordable white sneakers
 Who here knows the book Pete the Cat I love My White Shoes?  I always think of the song that goes along with that book whenever I wear white shoes. 😂  White sneakers are always a must have mom-wardrobe staple for me.  I love how classic they are and they go with pretty much anything.

9 Spring Outfit Ideas: When It Still Feels Like Winter

9 Spring Outfit Ideas: When it Still Feels Like Winter
I can’t believe it’s finally March!  We seem to be getting out of the winter and heading closer to spring each day, however, if you live in a cold place like the Midwest, it still will be some time until you can start wearing all those cute spring clothes.  I try not to let the weather hold me back from dressing for the season.  Just because it’s still cold out, doesn’t mean that I can’t bring some spring into my wardrobe. Read more
