3 Favorite Spring 2018 Outfit Inspiration!

3 spring outfit inspirations

Spring always makes me feel like I need a whole new wardrobe.   Which is a challenging feeling, because while I want one, my wallet says no. However, I did try to budget in these 3 outfits I want to share with y’all.

3 spring outfit inspirations

-1- This Meijer dress I fell in love with when I first saw it. I love the solid color mixed with the pattern.   It’s perfect for this time of year, the long sleeve Kimono provides some warmth for the chilly mornings but the material is thin enough that you are not burning up by afternoon. It was only $30 at Meijer! I purchased this with some of my weekly money I keep back for myself to spend on anything I want to.

-2- This flower hoodie from Meijer is now one of my favorite things I own. It is so comfy and provides a cute sporty look. The jeans I wear with this almost feel as soft as Pjs. I love them! They are from New York & Company. While they are out of my price range, they had an awesome deal going on that day. I got two pairs of capris for $69! The deal was still going on when I was there last week! Also the Meijer shirt is now on clearance!

-3- I had been eyeing these shorts on Old Navy’s website. Once again, they looked super cute and comfy. I’ve never owned any green shorts before so I thought this would be a great neutral color to add to my spring wardrobe. These shorts were 15% off last weekend, and thankfully I have a great Nana that still loves taking her grand daughters shopping. Thanks Nana! 😉 The top I paired this with I already owned, from Target. Pair it with a cardigan and your good to go! Love the flexibility of combined neutrals.

I plan on wearing these 3 outfits over and over again this spring and transitioning into summer. It seems that here in Indiana we have another week full of cool temps and chances for snow (seriously I am so over this snow, #southerngirlstuckinIN). Until then, I’ll just keep dreaming about wearing these and pinning my spring time looks on Pinterest. Check out my Pinterest page for more looks!

Happy Spring!

VALENTINES QUICK GET READY WITH ME & OOTD!

Valentines OOTD

Happy Early Valentines Day!!! Even though Valentines Day is over commercialized, I still think it is a really sweet day. My husband and I are going out this coming Saturday to celebrate early. We never go out on Valentines Day because we both hate crowds. Any one else agree?

So I wanted to share with y’all how I get ready for Valentines Day. And I wanted to make it as quick as possible. I just don’t like taking an hour to get ready anymore and for me, the more natural, the better. Also the main reason is Valentines Day is on a Wednesday, and unless you don’t have to work that day, you really don’t want to take a long time to get ready.

So I am just going to work with the make up that I applied that morning: foundation, blush, eyebrow gel, and mascara.

 

I’m going to start by redoing my blush, because it has probably worn off by the end of the day. I recommend using the Tarte Amazon Clay Blush in the shade Party.  I love the shade and it does seem to last awhile on my skin!

If you’re looking for a cheaper option, I also enjoy the Milani Powder Blush in Tea Rose.

My last step for my make up is the Burt’s Bees Lipstick in 510 Iced Iris. I love Burt’s Bees products. They always help my lips and this is a beautiful slight pink shade.

 

My Valentines outfit, I fell in love with a couple weeks ago at Target. I saw the shirt and skirt together and had to buy it!

 

I love the shade of pink the skirt is, and I believe it was $22. I recently went to target and they had put the skirt on clearance so they might not even have it anymore.

I thought it looked perfect with the striped top (which was just $12.99!). Pair this with black booties and my denim jacket and I think it’s a perfect Valentines outfit!

I hope you guys enjoyed my quick and easy get ready with me. I love feeling comfortable enough with myself knowing that I don’t always have to try to so hard to be perfect or to have so much make up on. I can be natural and just be me!

Happy Valentines Day! Last recommendation- if you haven’t seen the movie Valentines Day, which has several famous actors/actresses in it, I highly recommend it! It’s a sweet funny movie and a tradition that I watch every year! 😉
