WHITE RUFFLE TOP AND OPEN TOE SUEDE BOOTIES

RUFFLE TOP Talbots | SHORTS Alice & Olivia | BOOTIES Steve Madden | WATCH Michael Kors 

Now that Mother Nature has decided to cooperate and give us warmer weather, I have been wearing these Steve Madden booties on repeat. They are comfy enough to stand and walk around in for several hours, and can be worn with so many different outfits. Last week, I wore them with a lace shift dress to a baptism, and the following weekend, I paired them with this adorable outfit to meet my girlfriends for coffee. I picked up this ruffled sleeveless top a couple of years ago at Old Navy, but Talbots has a similar one that's currently *on sale!* When I saw these shorts hanging on the rack, I knew I had to have them. I've linked a similar pair for you guys. Olive is a color that can be worn with any skin tone and through all four seasons. While I lived in Charleston, SC, I was fortunate enough to experience several "winters" spent in shorts and a light cardigan - I wish has these back then!  
This David Yurman Double X Cross-Over ring was my gift to myself after starting my first corporate job. For those of you who don't know, I was an elementary school teacher for several years - but that story is sort of deserving of its own post. Nevertheless, I get compliments on this ring everywhere I go, and I can wear it anywhere because even though it's chunky, it goes with everything from a baseball cap and slouchy tee all the way to evening wear



Have you ever bought yourself a "congratulations" gift for achieving something? I'd love to hear about it - let me know in the comments below! As always, thank you for stopping by. :)

Who's Ready for Spring Break?! Here Are the Necessities!

Sunglasses HERE || Coral Romper HERE || J. Campbell Wedges HERE || Plunging One-Piece HERE || Ruffle Bikini HERE || Braided Sandal HERE || Tory Burch Thong HERE || Floral Tank HERE || White One-Piece HERE 
Black One-Piece HERE || Paige Shorts HERE || Brixton Fedora HERE || Kaftan HERE || Peplum Top HERE 

'Versatile' is a word that I use often to describe several pieces in my wardrobe; this is especially true when I am traveling. I've picked pieces that can be worn from day to night with a simple change of shoe (thong to wedge with this coral romper above and voilĂ !) It looks as if the one-piece bathing suit is here to stay and my goodness, there are some sexy options; I already ordered the white criss-cross one. Most people only think to protect their skin, but this Brixton fedora will protect your face and your hair, while you're looking cute in any outfit or bathing suit; I have two of them! I'm almost embarrassed to say how many pairs of wedges I have, but they are a way better option for a beach vacation than a stiletto. Paige not only makes my favorite skinny jeans, but I have recently picked up a couple pairs of their shorts, including the cuffed ones above. I'd pair them with a cute top or even the sheer cover-up that I picked out. Either way, this warmer weather we're having is making me itch for a fruity drink with an umbrella and some white sandy beaches!

Where are you traveling for your Spring Break 2017? Let me know in the comments! Thanks for stopping by :)
