Cobalt & Grey

Last Thursday, I had the honor of going to The Southern Coterie Summit Sessions held in Nashville. I went with my sister (who I work for). She wanted me to get more familiar with her world and it was so fun! I learned a lot and met a lot of wonderful ladies that are right here in the Nashville area. All morning/afternoon we listened to several different speakers on various topics and got to try all kinds of goodies. Then for the evening portion, we had Cocktails & Conversation that was held at the Southern Living Idea House. We got to tour it all- gorgeous! Also got to meet the Editor in Chief of Southern Living, Lindsay Bierman! Super cool! Anyways, during the day I wore a ruffled purple tank with a light purple cardigan, dark skinnies, and nude flats. You didn't have to change for the evening portion but we did and so did most everyone else since we were having "cocktail hour". I now love love love cobalt blue with grey. I need to come up with more of this combination because I just love how the bright blue pops!

Neutral Fall Outfit

I love wearing neutrals! It gives you a blank canvas that's so easy to add accessories for a put together look. I wore this to meet up with friends while I was visiting in Ohio. It was pretty cool so I threw on my LC | Lauren Conrad leather jacket (as seen in this post) before I left but didn't get any pictures of that. There are many other options I could have worn with these neutral basics but here's what I put together!

My camera on my iPhone is out of whack so these aren't the greatest but still wanted to share!

Manicure Monday

Hey Y'all! How's it been over a month since I last posted? It doesn't seem like that long ago! So Fall is my absolute favorite season, yet I had a hard time transitioning into it! This summer was a blast and I guess I didn't want it to end! Well, since I posted last, there's lots that has gone on. My sister and I moved into a house together and y'all, it is just the cutest thing! Like a real life doll house! Pictures to come once everything is in it's place! :) Also I made a trip home to Ohio for one of my best friend's wedding. I was there for 2 weekends, first being her bridal shower and bachelorette party then the following her wedding. I was so honored to be by her side for such a special day. I'll share a few pictures of that in a different post! It was back to reality on Monday, had a busy work week and then this past Saturday, I went to the Luke Bryan concert. Spending Sweetest Day with him was perfect! ;) Now that I'm back home I was ready to get in the Halloween spirit. Easiest way for me to do that was a pretty orange & gold mani! Simple yet festive enough!

Camo Jacket Gets Dressed Up

I have had this camo jacket for awhile now, but I still love it! It's light enough to transition into fall but still sturdy/thick enough that it keeps the wind out. Military trend has been all the buzz and I love dressing it up. Mixing patterns and textures, throwing on some neutral accessories and you can look put together but like you didn't try that hard. That's always a win-win for me! This dress is a super comfortable cotton dress that I've styled on here before with a denim blazer and leopard heels (seen here). If you want to see the other way I wore this jacket, take a look at this post here. Wore this to work today, which ended up being at Panera Bread! Our internet didn't want to work today so we needed somewhere with free wi-fi.

Mint Polka Dots, Lace Trimmed Denim & Gold Sparkles

Hey Y'all! I have been so busy the last few weeks I keep forgetting to take outfit pictures! Today I snapped a couple on my phone because I am obsessed with each of these individually, so of course I love them when they are all together! I wore this to work today. I'm lucky I have a job where I can wear pretty much whatever I want! :) Today was an odd day so I took a bubble bath, had some sweet red wine to relax and now I'm laying in bed while I'm posting this. I'm going to be calling it early tonight! I'm exhausted!

Hope everyone had a good Monday!

Pink Shorts

I wore this outfit before Labor Day, so my white sandals were allowed! I know they say it's okay to still wear white after labor day, but I just can't do it! My mom and grandma taught me that tradition and I'll probably stick to it the rest of my life! Anyways, I wore this outfit to work! I love the bright necklace against the white to pop!

Yellow Lace

I have had this dress for almost a year now and finally wore it! I've always loved it, but when I purchased it on clearance at Forever 21, it was past season. I just couldn't pass it up though and knew I could wear it this year! I love the cut/style of this dress. It's girly and flirty and flattering which is always a plus! I paired it with gold sandals and some gold/coral earrings! Sunshine from head to toe and I loved it!
