4 Ways to Upgrade Your Winter Work Outfits

January 13, 2022 by Katie Haller

4 clothing items that you can add to your work wear wardrobe to give your everyday work outfits an upgrade.
The holidays are over and now it’s time to head back to work.  I always like to start off the new year refreshed and motivated.  Some of you may have made a new year goal to dress cuter.  I always feel like my outfit can help me have a more productive day, so when I was working I made it a goal to always wear something that I felt cute and confident in.  Winter can be hard to stay creative though.  I always find myself in an outfit rut in January.  That’s why today I want to share 4 different wardrobe pieces that can help upgrade your workwear wardrobe this winter!

Cute and Comfy Outfits for Winter

January 6, 2022 by Katie Haller

 

A round up of cute and cozy winter outfits for women
Welcome to 2022!  I spent the last 2 weeks relaxing with my family.  The days leading up to Christmas were a little rough for me.  There was too much anticipation and excitement that I was struggling to hold everything together at home.  I decided that I would take a little break or at least a break from caring.  I stop caring about posting holiday outfit reel to Instagram or getting on my phone to check how my posts were doing or responding to the emails that came my way.  Instead, I listened to a book and started watching the second season of You on Netflix.  I did the things I never do in my free time, instead of the things I thought I should be doing and it was amazing!  I spent more time being in the moment with my kids and enjoying them.

Round up of best selling clothing items and popular blog posts of 2021

I hope that everyone has been enjoying their Christmas break.  I have been semi-un-plugged this last week, meaning that I haven’t been glued to my phone as usual and staying up late to work on blog posts.  It’s been amazing!  I’ve spent a lot of time with my family and I have been loving every moment.  But I am missing the blog and I am getting excited for this upcoming year.  I’ve been taking a break from creating new content, so this week I just wanted to do some review posts of 2021.

Affordable Green Dress for the Holidays

December 15, 2021 by Katie Haller

 6 ways to style a green dress for the holidays

I wasn’t planning on sharing this dress in a blog post, but then I decided that it was just too good not to share as many times as I could.  Just when I thought that I was done shopping for the year, I saw this dress at Old Navy and because I am loaded up with super cash I decided to grab it. (Super cash gets me every time! 😂) I love the dress because it’s very basic.  On its own, it’s just a plain dress, but once you play around with it and add some layers and accessories it becomes this very cute fun little dress.

5 Holiday Wardrobe Staples

December 13, 2021 by Katie H.

 
This year as I sat down to write about my favorite holiday wardrobe essentials, I realized that I have already written the same exact post.  I went back through my archives and realized that everything I wanted to share this year was the same thing I posted 2 years ago.  So instead of writing the same exact post, I decided to update it and repost.
