Weekend Favorites: Boat Ride

Hi Friends,
Thanks for stopping by and reading my latest Weekend Favorites blogpost. My Mom and I have been wanting to go on a boat tour through historic St. Augustine for a few months now; but it always seemed as though it would be booked extremely quickly. So we were happy to able to grab a couple seats for the sunset tour through the Intercoastal water way and up through the Atlantic Ocean.   Sooooo gorgeous!!!!! The boat ride was so wonderful and so were our boat tour guides. They shared lots of landmark history (some which we already knew. We go to St. Augustine alot) and the wind off the water was so perfect too. I put on a cozy sweater over my favorite Lilly maxi dress. BTW this dress is still available so grab it before its gone.

Dark Wash denim

The first time I laid eyes on this dark wash denim chambray button-down; I knew that I had to have it. So versatile and dark denim is usually reserved for cooler months. I have already found so many ways to wear this top. Loving this casual game day look with the orange and blue Florida scarf and a cute fedora hat. If it gets too hot the scarf can accent your bag.
         




Hat/ Sandals/ skirt/ similar bag or this one/ Dark wash denim top/ Tomorrow's the last day to get 30% off this versatile dark wash top. Use the code THANKYOU
And Thank You for stopping by my little blog!

Cozy Cardigan Try on and Haul

I love a good cozy cardigan and believe me I have lots. So I DO NOT need another cardigan, but I want all of them or as many as my closet can fit, Lol! So here are some cozy cardigans that I tried on two different styles. One comes in a variety of colors. I get so much use out of cardigans because I get cold easily. These are meant to a little oversized for the coziness so take your true size for that effect. I plan on styling mine a few different ways. Stay tuned. I’ll have linked for you. And hurry there’s a sale for 30% off your order and 40% off for cardholders until 9/29. Use code THANKYOU


I loved this style so much and bought it. This Cardigan comes in four colors
hat similar, here and exact wedges here.

Love this Cardigan too. It's mid-length and has pockets. Comes in a couple colors, perfect for work.

Weekend Favorites: Ice Cream & The Beach

This past weekend was wonderful! We decided to spend the last “Official “ day of summer eating ice cream. My nephew shared chocolate ice cream with my mom for the first time-It was National Ice Cream Cone Day btw and also spent time at the beach. Which is always my favorite. However, I still make frequent trips to the beach year round-after all I’m a Floridian.


Lilly Pulitzer sea foam green top old but here is a similar one for $40, and since cooler weather is on the horizon a nice, cozy cardigan would be a good idea. This exact one I'm wearing is currently on sale be sure to use the code,  and my skirt is from here. Hat is from Lilly but I'll link a cute one here
Thanks for stopping by!

Sweater Weather

Sweater Weather is approaching here in Florida!!!!! The mornings have been so beautiful, lingering around 68-70 degrees which to us Floridians is a taste of Heaven. I styled my favorite new knit chunky sweater in this beautiful copper color with some leopard sandals (similar) here,   here and here, my favorite hat, and bohemian styled jewel tassel clutch. Clutch is old from Lilly but here and here are two very similar styles on sale.

Fall outfit Try on & Haul

Picked up a few things for fall and cooler weather. I have said this before how I don't like to spend a lot of money on sweaters and cooler weather clothing being a Floridian ( except for a few investment pieces that are hard to find.) So all of these outfits are very inexpensive. I'll have everything linked for you.



So I'm loving the chunky sweater look. I bought my regular size but I did try on a size up in the mint color for an oversized look. This knit sweater is true to size. Copper-colored sandals are the perfect finishing look


This corduroy jacket is a pretty muted pink color. Perfect for fall and us color lovers

Utility Jackets are a great option for cooler weather. I love this khaki green color and there is also a navy color that I love. Does run on the bigger side. 

This dark wash chambray button-up shirt caught my eye and I had to have it. You could pair it with leopard or even bright jewel tones.


Love these funnel neck sweater; it's super lightweight and could be worn now during the evening time. Comes in multiple colors. I bought the gray color. 
Which was your favorite of the try on? I'd love to know! Be on the lookout for more casual fall outfits on the blog.

Weekend Favorites: Candle Making

Sunday I spent time with my Mama and we headed over to Hyde Park Village for oyster Tacos at Bartaco. We have been wanting to go to the new candle making shop Candle Pour and we finally did. The experience was great; the staff at Candle Pour are lovely and the atmosphere is great! There's all whole wall of scents to chose from. My mom picked Jasmine and Honeysuckle and named her candle Honey Jas :-) My candle was a mixture of Honeysuckle and Grape Fruit! We both picked an amber jar after mixing our candle. 
These candles would make a great gift, also great for bridal parties or date night. Great Fall activity too.
If you're ever in the Tampa area be sure to stop by Candle Pour it's a great little spot for family and friends to gather over beautiful scents and create memories. 

*Blogpost not sponsored by Candle Pour. It's my first experience making a candle and wanted to share with you all.

Late Summer Early Fall Inspiration

As we approach the last days of Summer and head into Fall; I have been so inspired lately by deeper tones not only in fashion but home decor as well. I pulled together some of my favorites and I'll have them linked below just in case you would like any of them. I specifically have the cozy knit blanket on my list for the entryway seating area. I currently have a couple copper velvet pillows in my house these covers are on sale for less than $15. 
Bath and Body Works Leaves candle smells just like fall and is the perfect scent to get you in the fall spirit.

Navy Cardigan is perfect for layering during the cooler nights/ Leopard sandals are my favorite/ As I'm approaching more travel in my schedule; I was admiring this vegan leather weekender/ Now for a cute outfit for warmer days is this white ruffle top ( Yes I do wear white after Labor Day) and this burgundy pleated skirt add the leopard sandals and navy cardigan for the evening and you're all set.

Little Black Sweater Dress

With Fall quickly approaching I thought it'd be good to share some inexpensive early fall outfit ideas in my own Floridian way. This inexpensive black cable knit sweater dress is so perfect for cooler temps. I paired mine with my favorite sandals because it's currently not cool here. LOL. I'll have everything linked for you. This gold leather tote was my most wanted item from the Lilly Pulitzer After Party Sale and it arrived yesterday. I found a similar one that will be less than $40 when you use the coupon on the website. Now I'm looking for some cooler weather to come my way!

My Lilly Pulitzer After Party Sale Tips and List

Hi Friends! The best sale of the year has been announced and I'm so excited. Below are a few things on my list that I want to get. I have wanted them since they first came out but didn't want to pay full price.



La La Tote

Ruari Set

Leopard Purse

The sale starts on Monday the 9th at 8 a.m ETD through the 11th. However, there will be early shopping in the store.
Here are a few tips that I have learned and I have been shopping this sale for a while now. 
Tip 1. Make an account and get your credit card all set up so you don't have the hassle of trying to put all of your information in during check out.
Tip 2. Speaking of checkout. Be sure to check out! by check out I mean if you found what you've been wanting, check out quickly! Because ain't nobody got time for stuff being snatched out your cart. It does happen its happened to me.
Tip 3. Use the search engine. Know the names of the items; it makes it easier to find the items you are looking for.
Tip 4. Shop and search local. If you have a Lilly Signature near you go there. Sometimes they have a lot to chose from and you can try on. I have bought a lot from shopping in the store.
Tip 5. Last but not least have fun. Because that's what Lilly would do!

What's on Your List? I'd love to know.

Slip Skirt and Leopard

I love fall fashion. The muted colors, earth tones, and leopard. I buy very inexpensively when it comes to cooler weather clothing. In Florida, it doesn't really get too cold all that often, and so I don't invest in extremely expensive pieces (sometimes I do like that purple wool and cashmere sweater from Ralph Lauren that I found in NYC. You'll see me wear that a lot come winter.) So with that being said all of the pieces I'm wearing are under $25 except for the leopard bow slides and ark bag. I'm really loving the slip skirt trend for fall, especially in this rose color. The perfect pop of color but muted enough for the fall season paired with this mock neck bodysuit.
