Berries, the first sign of spring…or at least in Texas anyway. I have been living in this tunic as of late, mainly because it goes with everything and it’s super comfortable. Also comfortable, are these awesome mule kicks. Pretty sure I had a few different styles of these when I was in 7th grade. It’s the transition heel in a way, and then they were gone. I’m so happy to see these make their way back into fashion right now, and so are my feet! Any favorite trends you’re seeing that you can’t get enough of?

Is there anything more exciting than finding the time to explore your own city? Austin is such a fun, eclectic place with so many things to do. I got to go on a day date with my husband, Aaron, to the Harry Ransom Center for the Gone With the Wind exhibition going on. Talk about inspiring! The costumes and drawings were so well done and ornate. On the way there, we explored some of UT’s beautiful campus. This is the perfect date outfit. I absolutely love the color green, and these army green pants are so versatile. Perfect for the days when I’m feeling tough and want to pair them with some combat boots and a studded jacket. Since I was feeling more flirty on this particular day, I thought I would balance out the masculinity of the army green and the boyfriend sweater by adding a striped headband, a fun bag, playful nails, and some magenta lipstick. Accessories and styling can really take any outfit to the next level!

It’s finally here! Fall is in the air (don’t let the green grass fool you). Needless to say, I could not wait to bust out this absolutely fun leather jacket. It pairs so well with this multi-functional button down from JOE’S Jeans. This top is so great because it actually is a sleeveless cutoff! Works perfectly for summer, and transitional outfits. Still want to wear it for cooler weather? Throw a cashmere sweater over it and let that striped collar be a pop of fun.

Is there anything more versatile than black? Yes, yes there is…the black tunic. It is the ultimate go to for looking put together with very little effort. I can make it flirty with heels, pair it with jeans and flats, or with some fun printed leggings and thigh high booties. The options are endless! For this look, I decided to really let this Marc by Marc bag shine. It is complemented by this lovely tunic with slight bell sleeves and beautiful crocheted details. I love the added look of a classic patent leather brogue to break apart the flatness of the black. What do you think, what’s your favorite way to wear tunics?

This shoot was so much fun! Sometimes I watch Mad Men reruns, just because I am so inspired by the outfits, especially Christina Hendricks character Joan. Not to mention, I love to mix vintage and contemporary pieces, and when I found this gorgeous green 60’s dress, it was a sign. It was so much fun to do these throwback looks all the way down to the make-up and hair-do’s. The cat eye has been making a huge comeback in make-up trends, but can we please bring back the 60’s mod cat eye? I’m obsessed!
Dresses have continued to be my go to throughout this summer. They are so easy to accessorize, put on, and run out the door. For these looks, I really wanted to play with primary colors and neutrals. Neutral colors are something I normally don’t gravitate towards, because they wash me out. However, I couldn’t bypass this lovely BCBG dress and its incredibly fun print and neck line. What are some of your favorite 60’s trends happening right now?
