I am such a fan of the high waisted tight skinny jean. However, that usually means pairing it with a loose top as to not show the tummy sucking in going on. Here are some options to pair with those great cinchers you've purchased.....
1. Oversized denim shirt (reminder to go up a size here they run small)
2. Long Sleeve Tee (Throw a lace cami underneath if the cleav is too deep for you)
3. Lace Top (would prob go a size up here too)
4. Flowy Tank (a great layering piece under an open cardigan or blazer)
5. Ruffle Cami (under a sweater or jacket would be a pop of color)

Get a Fast Start on Holiday Dresses.....

1. BCBG - this would be great for an office party with a high bun or ponytail to show off the lower back
2. Nordstrom ASTR - Basic black is perfect for the holidays
3. ASOS wrap dress- very festive!
4. Jumpsuit - I'm obsessed with jumpsuits and believe they can substitute for a dress
5. Girly Lace 

Best Foot Forward- Shoes that are semi-stylish and can be worn running around doing errands?

1. Steve Madden Troopa - I have a pair of these and over skinny jeans or leggings that are great to run around town in (with or without the kids)
2. Rain Boots - I prefer rain boots to real snow boots bc you can put on high wool socks and wear them in snow and then use them for rainy fall/spring days with a thinner sock
3. Chuck Taylors- I had these in red and wore them everywhere
4. Bright Smoking Loafers- Pair these with a brightly patterned sock, jeans and a sweater and you   mastered comfy chic
5. Over the knee flat boots- and yes, real leather

Working it out.... (with sweat)

So this post relates to workout gear.... I'll admit that I haven't done a good job of breaking a sweat with exercise since Marlowe's birth, but every mom will attest to wearing workout clothes despite a gym. Also, while lulu does have amazing stuff, their prices are ridic! Here are some other options that look just as nice!

1. Jacket- TjMaxx (a wonderful place for workout gear if you're willing to search)
2. Skinny Yoga Pant
3. Workout Top and Hi-waisted legging (thank you Jesus)
4. Sports Bra- I have these and actually love them
5. Capris and a Sweatshirt
6. Shoes to "run" around in (extra 30% off with code)

Working it out.....

Honestly, work is an area I hate dressing for.....but I found some cute pieces that could be worn for more formal or casual job situations....

1.  Faux Leather Shell - is 60% off and I tried this on...super cute tucked or untucked
2.  Fitted Blazer -They have great work blazer to mix and match with pants
3. Shift Dress- extra 25% off currently
4. Pea Coat- choose a bright color to pop in the winter months
5. Glen Plaid Bootcut pants --because tight pants aren't always great in the workplace

I'm Back!!!! (or trying to be)

After a two year hiatus from this hobby of mine, I am attempting to get back into posting! Since my two kiddos are no longer infants, I figured now was as good as ever to start putting some online finds out there. Once again, I must use a disclaimer to announce that I am by no means a self-proclaimed fashionista. I simply enjoy shopping and finding things that I think would look nice for my friends (and myself) under $200. Here are five top fall finds!

1. DV over the knee suede boot at TJMaxx online

2. Gold Tassel Pendant from BaubleBar

3. AEO Hi-Rise Legging

4. JCrew Factory Leather Tee

5. Zara Jumpsuit
