car-ride comfy

Long car rides are tricky...
You want to be comfy but also want to look cute when you arrive.
What do you do?!


I've had this same pair of American Eagle jeans for 8 years, so you can only imagine how soft and relaxed they are. 
The Free People waffle knit shirt is perfect for this chilly November weather because it's warm & cozy but not too bulky to inhibit your driving. 
Paired it all with one of my favorite necklaces from Earthbound Trading Company and of course my new favorite purchase, my beanie from Neff Headwear. 


Made it home for thanksgiving without looking like a total bum.

I'd love to see y'all's go-to travel outfits...!

fancy is fun

Happy birthday to my dear friend and roommate Kate Lee. Dinner at Babalu's in downtown Birmingham.

So happy that she is in my life and has impacted me in so many ways.
Including her impeccable sense of style and glitter. 

Keep doing you, Kate Lee. You're wonderful. 



Dress is from Forever 21

Sweater is by Michael Kors

Black Booties are from Charlotte Russe

Necklace was a gift :)

short legs

Everyone has their little quirk or "flaw" that they worry about, when in reality, no one else would ever notice it or consider it a problem. Mine has always been my short legs...

In my eyes, I have an extremely long torso and short to average length legs. However, my legs are fine, they're better than great. They have never failed me and take me everywhere I go, so why do I still critique them?  

I encourage all of you to recognize your quirks and embrace them, love them, because they're what makes you so wonderfully and undeniably you! I know it's cheesy, but your outlook changes everything. 


I found these black pants at Gap and absolutely love how they fit my shortie legs... That's the trick. If you need some help changing your mind about yourself, let clothes help you. Find something you feel good in and the rest of your day will feel better too. 


I paired these black skinnies with my black Dolce Vita booties which gives the illusion of longer legs. Ha!
Paired it all with one of my favorite FreePeople tees.
