How to Wear Faux Leather Leggings

November 22, 2021 by Katie Haller

This week is Thanksgiving, which I guess is the official start of comfy pant season. I don’t know why, but I only want to wear my comfy pants during the cold winter months. One pair of leggings that I wear over and over again is my Spanx faux leather leggings. Last year I bought a pair of faux leather leggings from Aerie (HERE) and I loved them. I wore them so much, so this summer when the Spanx leggings went on sale during the Nordstrom Anniversary sale I decided to splurge and buy them. I typically don’t spend that much money on any clothes in my wardrobe, but I knew that I would be wearing them a lot once winter came. I also knew that the Nordstrom sale is the best time to buy them because that is the lowest price I have seen after watching them for a couple of years now.

2 Affordable Sweater Dresses from Amazon

November 15, 2021 by Katie Haller

This fall I have had a bunch of requests to style sweater dresses. Sweater dresses can be great to wear in the winter months because they are warm and cozy, but they can also be tricky to find new ways to wear. I am not a big fan of sweater dresses. I use to have one sweater dress a long time ago, but I never felt the urge to buy another one. I find them to be overly warm and last year when I was breastfeeding they were completely out of the question for me. This year I decided to give them a go and see what I could find.

How to Style Staight-leg Jeans in 2021

October 27, 2021 by Katie Haller

Straight-leg jeans seem to be a hot topic at the moment. Ever since this idea that you are old if you still wear skinny jeans came about, everyone either seems to be running out and getting straight-leg jeans or holding their ground strong and refusing to wear them. Now I am not saying that I will be getting rid of my skinny jeans any time soon. I still prefer them over straight-leg jeans, but I do like to have a variety of jeans in my wardrobe. This helps my outfits stay fresh.

9 Fall Outfit Ideas With a Plaid Shirt

October 19, 2021 by Katie Haller

October is the best month of the fall season in my opinion! Football, Cider Mills, Pumpkin carving, Halloween! It’s always a fun month. I feel like there is no better wardrobe staple to have in October than a plaid shirt. It’s even better if you can find a plaid shirt that goes with everything in your wardrobe!

How to Wear a Statement Blouse

September 2, 2021 by Katie Haller

You may have noticed that the blog has been a little quiet over the last couple of weeks. That is because life has been a little crazy over here lately. I had no idea that the end of the summer would be such a busy/stressful time of year for a mom. Preparing Jack for kindergarten and trying to cram in all the last-minute summer activities has been a lot. That’s why I needed to not worry about blog content and just focus on other things.

2 Casual Ways to Style a Neutral Dress

July 26, 2021 by Katie Haller

As everyone has been shopping the Nordstrom Anniversary Sale the last couple of weeks, I have been shopping for look-a-like items from the sale for less. (You can check out all my favorite splurges and saves from my recent post HERE!!) One of my favorite items in the nsale was this neutral-colored cotton midi dress. I loved its style, so I knew I had to find a similar dress for less. I ended up finding this crew neck neutral-colored midi dress on Amazon for $13 less than the Nordstrom dress. I am so happy with my purchase. This dress fits perfectly! It’s true to size (I’m wearing a small) and it hits me at the perfect length, which is not always easy for me when buying midi dresses because I’m only 5’1. Most are either knee length or maxis on me.
