Hey pretties! Happy December! Let’s just pretend like this isn’t already the second week of the month and I didn’t forget to do the Pretty Fix, last week, ok? Yep, it’s shaping up to be that kind of month!
If you’re new around here and wondering what the heck the Pretty Fix is, well it’s my pieces I pick for you to stay on trend every month. You can shop where you want (or shop your closet) to pair up an outfit. The idea for it was born out of your dissatisfaction with the quality and price of some of the box styling services out there. I give you the ideas, you set the budget and do the shopping!
This month’s Pretty Fix is like a normal fix on steroids because you’re getting three outfits instead of just one! When this twisted front cozy fleece sweater landed on my doorstep last week, I couldn’t resist putting together a few looks around it. The good news is that every single piece (other than the sweater) is on the shopping list of the Winter 2017 GYPO Style Challenge – bonus, even more wear from those pieces!
This cozy lightweight fleece sweater comes in 18 different colors and no matter which one (or ones) you pick, you can still pair them up like I did in the three outfits below and it will totally work! The color I’m wearing is called “Blue Ceramic”.
Sizing Tip: This sweater runs a size big, I ordered an XS and it fits perfectly.
Let’s make this busy time of year as easy as possible – let me be your personal stylist and tell you what to wear every day for just $39! There’s still time to join the Winter 2017 GYPO Style Challenge. You’ll get a shopping list of winter trends and basics plus 34 days of mix and match outfit ideas delivered to your inbox daily – including three holiday party looks! Registration closes this Friday, December 15th! Learn more and sign up HERE.
It’s the day of the week at GYPO where we celebrate what makes us feel pretty. Whether it’s a new outfit, hairstyle, or makeup, the I Feel Pretty link up is about anything and everything that makes your life prettier. Even if you’re not a blogger, you can still play along. Just tell me what made you feel pretty this week in the comments.
Hey pretties! Can we all just agree that it’s been quite a year? Between bad news coming at us every day and our individual personal struggles, it can all just feel like too much. I’m not sure how you are all coping but I’ve found that starting and ending each day with gratitude for what’s right in my world helps dramatically. No matter what’s going on, there’s always, always, always something to be thankful for.
What better time than November to practice radical gratitude! Thanksgiving is just a few weeks away and also my second favorite holiday of the year. We’ll be hosting our extended family for dinner so I’m already thinking about some comfortable, easy outfits that will allow me to take care of hostessing duties while still looking put together.
Today’s post features two ways to wear a thankful graphic tee. In all fairness, the only thing that’s changing in these two looks is I swapped the plaid shirt for a long cardigan and added my favorite statement necklace. The base pieces in both outfits are my new thankful tee and my favorite super soft frayed hem jeans. Note: I’m wearing the women’s fit in this tee. It runs a bit small so you may want to order up a size.
UPDATE! My Thankful tee has sold out but you can shop some other cute options HERE.
I’ve been on the lookout for the perfect pair of gray ankle booties for close to a year. This pair is really comfortable and I love the little cut outs on the side. They will look cute with some patterned socks peeking out in colder weather.
Now, on to this month’s Pretty Fix! If you’re new around here, the Pretty Fix is my list of five pieces you can add to your wardrobe each month – all without breaking the bank. Shop my picks or shop your closet to create this month’s outfit.
Trust me, you’re going to want a red plaid shirt in your closet for fall and winter. It’s so easy to layer over and under other pieces in your closet. I recently bought this one and love how soft and drapey it is. Don’t worry, if red plaid isn’t your thing there are plenty of other pretty plaid options. Shopping Options: 1/2/3
A thankful tee is a great reminder that’s just perfect for November. If you order this tee, you’ll want to go up a size as it runs small (I’m wearing the women’s fit). Shopping options: 1/2/3
You’re probably tired of hearing me rave about these super soft frayed hem jeans. But how can I not? They are truly the pair I reach for most often in my closet. Shopping Options: 1/2/3
These gray ankle boots are the result of a nearly year long search for the perfect pair! I love the charcoal gray, it goes with everything. Shopping options: 1/2/3

Here’s another super cute take on this look. Instead of a plaid shirt, pair a plaid scarf with this 3/4 sleeve thankful shirt.

Happy October pretties! This month’s Pretty Fix was inspired by a “secret” capsule wardrobe I’ve been working on for the past month but have honestly wanted to do since my daughter and I went to Paris for her 16th birthday in 2016.
The GYPO French Minimalist Capsule has been under wraps…until today. I wanted to create a capsule that’s classic and timeless with a European flair, perfect for a packing list to Paris or for everyday casual chic sophisticated style – even if you never step foot out of your front door!
This capsule has just 20 classic pieces to create 20 casual chic mix and match outfit ideas. Even if Paris isn’t in your future, this month’s Pretty Fix outfit is perfect for October in whatever neck of the woods you’re in.
October means pumpkins, lattes and sweater weather! No look is complete without the ultimate “outfit completer” – the long cardigan. Try one in a beautiful burgundy shade like this. Here are some other options: 1/2/3
It would be a major faux pas not to include a striped top in a French capsule wardrobe. Look for one that’s fitted like this one for maximum versatility. Shopping options: 1/2/3
Gray skinnies are one of my fall staples. They add more interest to an outfit than basic denim and they go with everything. This shaping pair hugs curves. Try these other shopping options: 1/2/3
This patterned shopper tote stores all of your tourist-y essentials. Even when you’re not traveling, it makes a great everyday bag. Shopping Options: 1/2/3
Think less athletic and more ath-leisure to make black and gray sneakers a truly comfortable style statement! More options: 1/2/3

Happy September pretties! It’s my birthday month, the big day is tomorrow. Craig and I took a mini-vacation to celebrate our belated anniversary and my early birthday last week. He was on business in California so I tagged along. We spent a few days touring San Francisco, Napa Valley and Sonoma. It was a whirlwind trip but very relaxing with lots of great food and of course, wine! We haven’t taken a kid-free trip in over four years so it was high time.
This month’s Pretty Fix features one of the outfits that I packed for our trip to California. Every piece in this outfit is also on the shopping list for the Fall 2017 GYPO Style Challenge which opened last Friday. If you haven’t joined me for a style challenge yet, now is the perfect time to rebuild your fall capsule wardrobe. This is our biggest challenge of the year! You can learn more and sign up here.
This outfit is SO me. It’s basically a dressed up tee and jeans, my daily uniform. I switched to my gold slip on sneakers for our day of touring San Francisco and then changed into my ankle boots for dinner.
To say I have a cardigan stashed in my bag year-round is not an exaggeration. This light beige cardigan is super versatile for fall. It’s a great lightweight layer. This linen cardigan is also a great choice.
This white tee is seriously one of the best I’ve ever owned. I love the fit, fabric and bit of drapey-ness. This one is another good option at a great price.
The Fall 2017 GYPO Style Challenge is NOW OPEN! Sign up now to get your fall trends shopping list, first week of outfit ideas plus four bonus outfits immediately. It’s the affordable way to have your own personal stylist. We’ll be styling the trends in today’s post plus many more as we build our fall capsule wardrobes together.

Happy August pretties! How’s the end of summer shaping up for you? We’re trying to milk out the last precious moments of summer while slowly transitioning into getting ready for back to school.
If you’re new around here, the Pretty Fix is a monthly feature with budget-friendly recommendations for staying on trend. The idea for it was born out of frustration some of you have had with box styling services. The Pretty Fix allows you to shop for the pieces at your favorite stores so it’s budget and quality conscious. Of course, I always recommend that you shop your closet first!
This month’s Pretty Fix reflects what I have going on this month. We’re traveling to cooler weather destinations so I finally get to wear one of the outfits I can only dream of in Texas – a comfy sweatshirt with slouchy shorts and slip on sneakers!
These earrings are the pair that I wear with everything, every day. They’re just a great thin versatile hoop and the perfect size. Check out this budget friendly version too!
I’ve always had a thing for nautical. The rope trim on this poppy red tote is the perfect detail. This budget friendly tote also has a nod to nautical but at a lower price point…and it expands!
Slouchy boyfriend shorts are the perfect compliment to a laid back sweatshirt. If you’re not wanting to invest in more shorts this late in the season, you can substitute these boyfriend jeans instead.

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.
Betty Weyandt December 20, 2019
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.
Michelle Kline November 20, 2019
Great community of ladies, helping each other look stylish, without breaking the bank, and using much of what you already own.
Chosen Faith November 19, 2019
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.

I love GYPO!!! I finally feel put together and stylish! The shopping lists and outfit combinations make shopping and getting dressed effortless.
