Investing In Your True Self

August 10, 2018 No Comments

Investing in your true self really doesn’t take a lot of money, but it does take some time. Have you ever sat down and wrote out what matters most to you? Did you write down things like owning a home or purchasing a new car? Or did you write down something less costly, like a new mattress or new bedding, or a skin care regimen, or a good, quality bra? Whatever matters most to you is what you should invest in so you can embrace your true, authentic self. I wanted to share with you a few ways I invested […]

Steal Her Style: Poppy Delevingne

July 30, 2018 No Comments

Poppy Delevingne’s style is a mix of easy-breezy boho looks and red carpet glamour. Like her younger sister, Cara Delevingne, this British beauty is a model and actress. She’s the kind of girl that you would catch glamping in a yurt at Glastonbury. But the look I chose to use for this month’s “Steal Her Style” is one that you’ll want to wear on this Summer, possibly on a casual night out with your girlfriends or on a date night with your significant other. Poppy pairs a black blazer with cut-off denim shorts and a white shirt. Then she elevates […]

Even though the heatwave of summer makes me want to stay inside all day, I have found that the allure of the sun-shiny days here in East Tennessee makes me want to get out and enjoy what remains of summer. So in honor of summer, I wanted to share some summer-themed links in this month’s “Links I Love.” 25 High-Waisted Summer Pants to Wear When You’re Tired of Shorts […]

Taron Egerton plays sexy and stylish British secret service agent Gary “Eggsy” Unwin in both Kingsman: The Secret Service, and the sequel, Kingsman: The Golden Circle. In the first Kingsman movie, he is transformed from a scruffy thug into a true gentleman who wears bespoke suits, thanks to his mentor, Harry Hart, played by the charming British actor, Colin Firth. After watching the sequel this past weekend, I knew that I needed to name Taron Egerton as this month’s “Man of Style”. “I’m naturally quite a scruffy bugger, so it was lovely to have a jaunt into the world of […]

This summer I’m all about finding new ways to wear items in my wardrobe that don’t get much use, and the outfit featured in this month’s “Dress Form Outfit” post is a small step out of my comfort zone. I don’t usually wear shorts {of any length or style} out in public, mainly because I don’t always use my tanning towels or my sunless tanning lotions and my legs are whiter than snow. The other thing is, I’m not a big fan of my arms so I try to keep them covered. With that said, I really like this outfit […]
