Casual Friday


Happy Friday Eve, Everyone!
I don't know about you, but every single time Friday rolls around I get just downright giddy about being able to grab my denim and wear it to work!  Now, I always like to keep my look professional and dress up my jeans a little!  I have found that the easiest way to dress up a simple outfit of jeans and a tee is by adding a blazer.  I'm in LOVE with this one from J.Crew!  It fits fabulously and adds such polish to an otherwise casual outfit!
Hope this helped getting dressed tomorrow morning a wee bit easier!

Neutrals

Neutrals have become one of my go to basis' for fast outfits.  When I'm in a hurry, I find it easiest to get ready by starting with a simple base (some form of a button up/tee with skinnies).  I then grab accessories to help add some flair to an otherwise plain outfit.  These accessories can be added by grabbing a few pieces of jewelry, a scarf, a great handbag, chic sunnies, or fancier shoes.  In this case, simple basics such as a pair of grey denim and a white tunic are given personality with ease by adding a scarf and cute heels.

Be sure to check out the SHOPBOP SALE!  They are offering 25% off of your order with code:  INTHEFAM25.  See all of my picks here.
Thanks for reading!

I was so thrilled to learn this morning that the Shopbop Sale has began!  This sale is amazing because it allows you to stock up on fall essentials that might be a little pricer than you would normally want to spend!  They are giving everyone 25% off of their order with the code: INTHEFAM25.
  
Below are a set of my favorites from the sale.  I have already ordered the clutch & booties and am seriously debating adding the dresses to my wardrobe as well!

ENJOY!

Fall Florals & Booties

This month I have been CRAVING floral dresses and booties.  Below is a list of items that I have either purchased or are in my online carts.  Floral dresses are huge for Fall this year and I am fully embracing them.  They transition easily to fall by adding booties.  When the weather continues to cool down, you can add tights, over the knee boots, and a sweater or vest to make them even more adorable!   They truly are multi-seasonal! Hope you enjoy these pieces as much as I do!

Hi Everyone!
The season's here is in such a flux that they can't seem to decide where Summer ends and Fall begins.  That being said, I'm currently wearing some of my most favorite Summer pieces while I still can!  This dress is fantastically adorable, and while it's currently sold out, I linked some adorable other options!
Hope you're enjoying the last of your warm days as well!

Basics and Life Updates

Happy Tuesday, Everyone!

This past week has been beyond eventful in my little life!  

…The Wonderful Side of Life...
I'm beyond excited to announce that I'm now an Aunt!  My little brother & his wife had their first child this past week and I'm so excited to be able to cuddle my nephew to pieces again very soon!  I'm so thrilled to have a new little person in the family!

….The Blah Side of Life…
Driving home from a fabulous weekend spent with my Mom, I hit two wild boars with my car and now my poor car is out of commission.  Thankfully, I'm fine, my car is fixable, and I have a fantastic hubby who doesn't mind being my chauffeur while it's being mended.

….and….
 NOW ONTO THE OUTFIT
I adore pairing simple basics together with fun accessories for added appeal and a stylistic touch.  I firmly believe that good basics are the foundation to good style.  If you have good basics in your wardrobe, building a good outfit is a breeze.  In thinking about it minimalistically, then adding accessories to create personality, you can always ensure a good cohesive outfit.  Thus, the basics of this outfit (the black jacket, striped shirt, and destroyed denim) shine when paired with fun accessories (like this red handbag and bow flats).  

Hope your week is going well!  Thanks for stopping by!
