Helping women love what they wear on a budget

Comfortable & Affordable Bra Review

May 9, 2022 by Katie H.

Affordable bra review

To me, one very important wardrobe staple to own is a good bra! I believe that what you wear under your outfit can completely make or break the look. If you feel uncomfortable in the wrong bra or you keep having to adjust yourself throughout the day, you’re not going to love what you are wearing as much.  That’s why today I wanted to dedicate my posts to comfortable and affordable bras.

Momiform feel more stylish

Hi Friends! It’s time for another How To Make Your Momiform Feel More Stylish. If you missed my last post HERE, I talked about how a momiform is an outfit that we wear every day as a mom that often feels like a uniform for us. This is why I love to share tips on how we can take typical everyday clothes that many of us already have in our closets and turn them into cute and stylish outfits.

How to Wear a White Blazer for Spring

April 27, 2022 by Katie H.

How to wear a white blazer

One of my favorite pieces of clothing in my wardrobe is a blazer.  I absolutely love the look of a classic blazer with an outfit.  You can wear them in so many different ways and it always looks polished and put together.  I have a few different colors and styles of blazers, but one color I have had my eye out for is a white blazer.

Trends to Try- Gingham Dress

April 24, 2022 by Katie H.

Spring Trends Gingham

One trend that I have had on my radar this spring is gingham. Gingham is a classic print and it’s been around for a long time, but this spring it’s hard to miss! I’ve been seeing gingham print everywhere in dresses, tops, skirts, and more. I have also been seeing it in all sorts of bold bright colors. I think it’s safe to say that gingham is a big trend for spring 2022!

Casual Outfits To Wear While Running Errands

April 19, 2022 by Katie H.

Casual outfits to wear while running errands

I am a pro when it comes to running errands. I feel like that’s all I do every day. Any time that I leave the house I like to feel cute and put together in whatever I am wearing, but let’s face it. The grocery store is not the most glamorous place to be. That’s why there is no reason that you need to get overly dressed up (unless of course that makes you feel good). That’s why l like to keep it casual.

Cute Rainy Day Outfit Ideas With Rain Boots

April 6, 2022 by Katie H.

Cute Rainy Day Outfit Ideas

I never thought that I would ever own a pair of Hunter rainboots. I just didn’t think that they fit into my wardrobe, plus they are expensive. With all the April spring showers we have been getting here in Michigan lately, I have been thinking that a cute pair of rain boots might be the perfect addition to my wardrobe.
