How to Wear Joggers And Still Feel Put Together

January 20, 2021 by Katie Haller

 Comfortable jogger outfits that still feel put together
Let’s be honest…How many days per week do you spend wearing sweat pants?  I wear them more than I would like to admit, but they are so comfortable.  Even when I was working full-time every day, the first thing I did when I came in the door from work was take off my pants and slide into a comfy pair of sweat pants.  I can not get enough of jogger sweat pants.  I like how they tapered at the ankle and I love a good high waist. I have several pairs of joggers because I just love them!Read more

3 Easy Ways to Style a Plaid Scarf

December 17, 2020 by Katie Haller

Easy ways to wear a plaid scarf

Did you catch my latest reel style video over on Instagram?  If not, I shared a few ways to style my favorite plaid scarf. (Check out my reel HERE)  I bought this plaid scarf last December at a local second-hand store.  I’ve been looking for a plaid scarf like this for years.  I love that it has green and red, so it’s great to wear around the holidays, but I also wear it throughout the winter with my coats. Sometimes it’s tricky to figure out how to wear a scarf.  You would think it would be pretty easy, but it’s not always.

If you would have asked me 10 years ago if I would ever wear “mom jeans” I would have laughed and said no way!  I always remember seeing the mom jeans SNL skit and laughing thinking how ridiculous my mom looked back in the ’90s wearing high-waisted mom jeans.  Well, here I am at 36 wearing mom jeans and absolutely loving them.Read more

How to Style Black Jeans

November 10, 2020 by Katie Haller

How to style black jeans #blackjeans
I’ve always loved having a good pair of black jeans to have in my closet.  They are so easy to dress up, yet they are still casual because they are denim, not dress pant material.  They are an important fall and winter wardrobe staple for me.

9 Mom-Friendly Outfits With Faux Leather Leggings

 As a stay at home mom, I wear leggings a lot.  When I have no plans to leave the house, I usually stay in my leggings all day long because they are way more comfortable than jeans.  I’ve been wanting to step up my leggings for a while and branch out from my normal black leggings.  I’ve been eyeing faux leather leggings for a couple years now and last winter I started to really love the look of them, but I was pregnant.  I wasn’t going to buy a maternity pair of faux leather leggings and I also didn’t want to buy a pair that I could barely fit into.  Now that I have officially retired all my maternity leggings, I figured I would buy a pair of faux leather leggings to see how I like them, and guess what?  I love them!!  Read more

Happy Memorial Day!! I am truly grateful to all of Happy Memorial Day!! I am truly grateful to all of the brave men and women who made the ultimate sacrifice our country! 🇺🇸

I just love how my 6-year-old is always so excited and interested to learn about each holiday. Today he couldn't wait to put on his red, white and blue clothes and make a flag cake. Even though he doesn't quite understand the real meaning behind the day, his curiosity always makes my heart happy! ❤️🤍💙
