Disheveled in roses

Happy Monday readers.  Did you guys have a good weekend?  Anything fun or exciting happen?  My little family and I went up to Snowbasin.  Tyler and Triston snowboarded while Lilah and I sat in the lodge and cheered them on!  I was such a proud mama bear watching my little guy cruise down the mountain.  It's crazy how coordinated he is, and how much he enjoys snowboarding.

On to the fashion post!  I wanted this outfit to be girly & romantic, but I wanted to add a twist to the outfit.  Nothing much.  It's fun to do minor adjustments to outfits, and try out trends or looks you've seen.  So I put on my chambray... Ladies this is a must have item.  It goes with everything and it's the perfect layering item.  Then I threw on my rose sweater.  BUT I only tucked in one side of the chambray shirt.  I'm not sure where this trend originated from, but I wanted to try it and I kind of liked it.  I liked the thought that when people saw me were they thinking my tucking in one side was accidental or what?  I liked my outfit coming off as mysterious I guess lol.  I went for my black jeans and I was originally going to wear my booties, but since we were going up in the mountains I opted for my furries instead.  Sure glad I did.  I added a rose statement necklace and some jewels.  Added a light pink/coral lipstick and went to watch my little guy kill it on the mountain.

What are some trends you guys are seeing that you'd like to try?  I hope you enjoy the look.

P.S. It was sooo windy.  We were coming down the canyon and I saw this little spot in Mountain Green.  When I got out of the car I about blew away lol.  But I loved this spot so I tried my best to work with Mother Nature.  So please excuse the crazy wind blown hair lol.

The day I pretended I was a paleontologist

**Just a friendly Reminder that my giveaway closes tonight at MIDNIGHT MST!!!  Check out my first giveaway post for official rules.  Winner will be announced tomorrow so watch for your name, keep your fingers crossed, and good luck.  Hugs XxX!!**


I am obsessed with this adorable sweater.  I saw it, grabbed it, and bought it without any thought.  It's one of those pieces where your fashion soul just knows it's the right piece for you and there is absolutely no need to think or mull it over in your head.  You just know the article of clothing was made specially for you.  And a bonus for me?  I scored "Cool Mom Points" with my 3 year old son.  He thinks I'm pretty cool when I wear dinosaur sweaters.

I think sweaters look best when there is another layer underneath them.  This isn't always the case, but I felt like this was one of those times when an extra layer was needed.  So, I added one of my staples to the outfit... my beloved chambray shirt.  Put on my $10 black jeans.  (You know how I feel about bargains) and added my skinny belt, black boots, and jewels.   Applied my fuchsia lipstick and was out the door.

 Next time you feel like something is missing when you are wearing a pull over sweater, try adding a flannel, chambray, or a button up shirt to see how it transforms the outfit.  Tuck it in in the front for a more fitting and polished look!  Hugs XxX

Mixing Prints

Ok, so this is an outfit that some may not like, but that's alright.  I'm comfortable wearing it, and for me it's fun to think outside of the box and try something new.  Introducing.... Chambray, Camo, and animal print!!!
This morning when I walked into my closet these items just stood out.  I thought for a second on what I would use as my jewels, and voila!  My outfit was born.  Hope you enjoy. 

Hugs XxX

P.s. Heads up, amateur move.  I forgot to change my camera settings!
