One of the biggest trends for spring 2020 has been pastel jeans but when I took inventory of my denim I realized that I had plenty of blue, black and white but not a single pair of colorful. Since I’ve been spending more and more time in my jeans lately I decided one way to make them more fun would be to add some color to the collection.
Nothing says spring like some pretty pastel jeans! This season I had a bit of rebuilding to do in my denim collection and realized that one major gap I needed to fill was my colored jeans. I had plenty of blue, black and white but not any other colors so I set out to find a few perfect pairs.
The first pair I added to the collection was this pair of tie waist lavender sculpting jeans. The color is so light and pretty that it almost acts as a neutral and can be paired up in so many different ways. It has major versatility! You can dress these jeans up with a crisp white blouse like this tie-back popover and add in a statement necklace and some white block heels to give it a little polish.
For my second look I went with a slightly more dressed down version by swapping the white blouse for this sleeveless top in monochromatic lavender. These embossed white leather tassel loafers give the outfit a laid back preppy vibe.
Happy belated Easter Pretties! To say it was an unusual Easter is a total understatement. I have to admit though, it will go down in history as one of my favorites. In these uncertain times, there’s something really comforting about having my whole family here under one roof. We made the most of our day with a morning family workout, followed by getting dressed up properly for our online church service and topped it all off with a barbecue feast of epic proportions.
Last week, I posted this video sharing that I planned to dress up for Easter at home and asking you all to vote for your favorite dress from J. Crew Factory. Your hands down favorite was this pretty cowl neck polka dot frock. I gotta hand it to you, you definitely picked a winner! I love the fit of this dress and it definitely made Easter at home feel more special. These low heel red block sandals were comfortable for wearing around the house and they added the perfect pop of red.
A close runner up was this navy and white gingham shirt dress. Nothing says spring quite like gingham! I love the ease of a shirt dress and how it can be easily dressed up or down. This one would look adorable paired up with some fresh white sneakers.

Big thanks to J. Crew Factory for sponsoring this post and making it easy for the whole family to look fashionable this spring, whether you’re leaving home or not.
February brings with it the unique opportunity to style outfits that easily transition from the office right into date night. I’m a BIG believer in working with what you already have in your closet and love that every piece in this outfit from Ann Taylor can easily do double duty. I love Ann Taylor for their high quality classic, yet totally on-trend pieces. They are one of my go-to’s when it’s time to go shopping for a business trip or speaking gig that requires me to get a little dressier than my default jeans and blouse.
And what says Valentine’s Day more than red? It was LOVE at first sight when I spied these belted ankle pants in zesty red. Naturally, they were begging me (no, seriously!) to pair them up with this cute striped top. OK, maybe I made that part up but red and stripes are near perfection, but only near. The cherry on top, on in this case, on bottom is hair calf leopard loafer flats. Pattern mixing perfection!

One of the things that I love most about being a blogger is the times that I’ve gotten to work with my family members on blog posts. Granted some of them have to be dragged kicking and screaming (mainly my husband, Craig. He’d rather stay behind the camera) but for the most part, they’re usually more than happy to play along.
With Aubrey home from college for winter break, we had the perfect opportunity to do a little shopping and styling together at J. Crew Factory. Being totally honest, with an over 20-year age difference, it’s hard for us to find stores that we can both shop at. J. Crew Factory is one of those rare finds where you can walk out with the whole family happy! We were both able to put together cute, age appropriate and stylish outfits plus find awesome winter coats, shoes and even accessories to finish them out!

I am so glad I was part of the Fall 2019 Style Challenge. It gave me confidence and so many great outfitt ideas. The ladies in the group were very supportive and I will defintetly be doing another challenge in the future.

I’ve been participating in the GYPO Style Challenges for three years now and I’ve loved it. I’ve always loved clothes, but I didn’t know how to put outfits together. My closet is now full of mix-and-match outfits, I have learned how to dress myself, and there is no more stress in figuring out to wear. The private FB group is full of wonderful ladies that build each other up. It’s so fun and is seriously the best group on FB.

Get Your Pretty On has changed my life, seriously. I have always chased what is trendy but found from season to season, that things go out of style and I was wasting money on items that I would only end up wearing a few times. GYPO has enabled me to simplify my closet, helps me make smarter purchasing decisions, and I feel so put together and confident using the outfit formulas that are provided. This program is a GAME CHANGER. I've been following GYPO for a few years now and my only regret is not jumping on board sooner.

Great community of ladies, helping each other look stylish, without breaking the bank, and using much of what you already own.

GYPO challenges have been one of the best things I have done! It had taught me so much more than just creating a closet of clothes that I love but also to have confidence in myself, how to pick and choose colors that work for me instead of against, and had given a wonderful community of Pretties who are so special.
