I don’t know about where you live, but here in Dallas we are serious about our brunch!!! I absolutely love to eat, that coupled with a yummy mimosa and I am down! When I saw this tee at Kohls I knew I had to have it for my brunch attire. For a casual brunch, I like to keep the look easy but make the look a little special with accessories or shoes. I think this outfit definitely fits the bill. A comfy t-shirt and boyfriend jeans to hide all of the pancake, crepe or french toast goodness that I consume. The cute wedges makes me look like my life is together and that I still got it even as a mommy lol. A few of my favorite brunch spots in Dallas are Breadwinners, Whiskey Cake, Del Frisco Grill and Smoke. Definitely check those places out if you’re ever in my neck of the woods!
That moment when you find the most comfortable, great fitting romper? Yes, its not too many moments like those when it comes to a romper. But, this right here?! Pretty much greatness. The material, feel and fit is wonderful. This romper can be worn just about anywhere. I, of course had to dress it up with pumps and a statement bag. But, this can be worn casually with a great pair of flat sandals and cross body bag if you choose. This is another ASOS find. I’ve been on an ASOS kick lately, I don’t know if its because of blogging and wanting to find unique pieces to add to my wardrobe or the 2 day shipping (ASOS Premier membership). But, I’ve been a fan! The only downside is that I do have a few pieces where I’ve had to buy multiple sizes and have yet to return via mail. So look for those to be sold on my Instagram!
Anyhoo, back to this romper!!!You have to get it and for $30 its well worth it! It has a level of chicness to it which I love and makes me feel put together as well. Be sure to check out this great find and add to your summer wardrobe!
See you Sunday!
Have you entered my giveaway for a Ted Baker hard shell luggage and some Kate Spade goodies? If not, click here!
Happy Tuesday friends! I have another installment of my “Cheap and Chic” feature on the blog today for Style Craving Tuesday! I really like doing these kinds of posts because I love to find things that are very similar in style for a great price. People usually think I spend a lot on fashion, but I always look for a steal to achieve the same look! I am all about finding great pieces at a more affordable price without sacrificing quality and style.
Today’s handbag is definitely a steal!! I can’t believe how affordable the Steve Madden “BTotally” handbag is compared to the Stella “Falabella” bag which is over $1000!! Fret not friends, you can get the SAME look for $75-$100. Sounds good right?? I know it does. What’s even better is that Steve Madden is running a promotional offer for up to 20% off using the code “BTS” so this may be the perfect time for you to shop and get a good deal. I did a blog post of another Steve Madden look for less on last week on the Steve Madden “Slither” sandal click here! So be sure to check that out while you’re shopping. I’ve posted all the links to the above below so have fun shopping!!
Let me know if you love these types of posts and I’ll keep doing them for you! See you Thursday for an outfit post!!
Official Rules: Giveaway will run from August 10th until August 17th at midnight. Winner will be chosen at random and will be emailed within 48 hours of the giveaway ending. All entries will be verified to make sure they were done correctly. This giveaway is open internationally.
I love finding a cheaper alternative when it comes to shopping. Sometimes you can love the look of a high end or more expensive item, but really cannot justify spending the price. So when I stumble across a style inspired piece for a more affordable price, I’m all over it!! This is a deal too good not to share!
I have been obsessing over the Schutz “Julianna” caged sandal (middle) which retails for about $200. Not too bad, but when I found the Steve Madden “Slithur” sandal which basically looks the EXACT same for $109, I knew I scored. The only difference I have noticed is that the Steve Madden version doesn’t have the curved heel and is 4 inches high compared to the Schutz 5 inch heel which is perfect for me. Let’s face it, the older I get 5 inch heels are no longer my thing. I like to walk like my feet doesn’t hurt thank you very much lol. This item is on my Style Craving list and I need in nude, black, red and yellow of course! I tried these on at Nordie’s and they are even more gorgeous in person. I would highly suggest to add this gorgeous shoe to your closet!

When I tell you time is flying, it really is! It’s basically August!!! I can’t believe that the year is almost over. So much has transpired over the past year for me, namely, my daughter’s birth. Next month we will be celebrating her one year birthday. Emotional is not even the word to describe how I feel about it. I have put off planning her party because who wants to believe that their little baby is going to be one? I swear I JUST had her! I’ll be sharing with my lovely followers her birthday plans and party so be sure to stay tuned! Anyhoo, before a tear begins to fall from the thought of it all, I wish you a fabulous weekend!! I am so looking forward to indulging in carbs and wine! Life is sweet!!

Happy Tuesday! I am so ready for this week to come to a close. I am still recovering from the craziness that was last week click here with my little one, but she’s doing well and is back at her original daycare healthy and happy! Did you know today is National Lipstick Day? Honestly, there is a day for everything these days it seems like. But, since I love makeup, I thought I would do a beauty post today and feature my every day go to makeup pics and my favorite lippys!
When it comes to a daily look, I keep it simple and easy. I am all about a quick five minute face, especially on work days. To keep it especially easy, I absolutely adore eye palettes! I don’t have to search or dig for a lid, crease or blending color. I can just pull a palette and have easy access to pretty much any eye look I am in the mood for. For that, I simply adore the LORAC eye palettes. I always get the prettiest, blended eye look and the colors are so easily blended. I first start with a good eyeshadow base, so I’ll use either the Maybelline Color Tattoo, the LORAC eye primer or Too Faced Shadow Insurance. They help the shadows stay on longer and I honestly would not put on any eye makeup without them. Every girl loves a good mascara, I am always on the hunt for the best one. Right now I am using Loreal Voluminous mascara. I do like it, the formula is a little more wet than I like, but from my understanding it takes a little bit of time for it to dry out a little. So far, so good!
You can’t have a pretty eye look and not a flawless face! I don’t really bother with liquid foundations when I am doing a five minute face. My absolute favorite liquid foundation, however, is Makeup Forever HD foundation! It simply gives the most flawless, photo ready face. If you have not tried this foundation yet, pop over to your local Sephora and ask for a sample! Anyhow, back to what I use for my five minute face, I use Makeup Forever Pro Finish powder, I take the iT Cosmetics flat top brush and use that to apply the powder. It’s quick, easy and I love it.
The icing on the cake is simply a good lipgloss or lipstick for your look. These days, I prefer lipstick as I hate when my hair gets stuck on lips wearing gloss. My absolute favorite lipsticks are featured above. If I want a gorgeous red lip, I’ll use either the NARS Velvet Lip Pencil or the Too Faced Velvet liquid lipstick. They have a perfect matte finish and are the right shade of red for my skin tone. For a pretty mauve, pink lip, it has to be MAC’s Up The Amp lipstick!! It’s pure perfection and really any skin tone can pull it off. Last, but not least are the gorgeous, NARS Audacious lipsticks. The finish and consistency on these lipsticks are so smooth and moisturizing. My favorite shades are the Anna, Anita and Fanny. They have some other shades that I am eyeing and need to add to my collection soon 🙂
Tell me, what are some of your favorite beauty items? I am always on the hunt for great beauty products!!
See you Thursday for an outfit post!!Post is linked to Fancy Francy beauty blog!
Happy Lipstick Day featuring Five Minute Face Products! was last modified: March 25th, 2016 by tanika Green
Hey loves! I’m back with another post! Let me tell you, this week has been terrible for me. Remember I told you all about my little one going to a back up daycare for the week click here? Well, it was going ok until she caught hand, foot and mouth!!! Like seriously?! I CANNOT!!! Needless to say I am a devastated mommy. She’s acting completely normal and playful thankfully. But, it started Monday with her having a fever of 101. I thought maybe it was teething, she slept fine throughout the night and no fever in the morning so I didn’t worry. Well, Tuesday night my husband noticed bumps on her knees and elbows. We thought it was maybe a skin irritation that she had from crawling, so we gave her an oatmeal bath and thought she was fine. But, yesterday morning we picked her up to get ready to go and noticed it spread all over her legs and arms. I called the doctor immediately and brought her in and she confirmed that its the dreaded hand, foot and mouth.
My mommy guilt right now is at a 10!! The daycare did advise that they had a case the prior week of hand, foot and mouth, but I was trying to think positively that she wouldn’t get it. I even used essential oils as a preventative measure to ensure we took extra precaution. But, I probably should of not even admitted her into the daycare in the first place. I’ve already shed tears about it last night. But, I know that “all things work together for good to them that love God” from Romans 8:28 KJV. So I just have to believe that and know that this will pass. I am learning every day that motherhood is a complete act of selflessness and let me tell you, if I could take this from her,I surely would. So we are laying low until the sores heal and I am showering her with lots of love!! For mommies out there, how do you handle the guilt of situations like this? I broke down last night and cried at the dinner table while eating my Chili’s takeout lol. My husband looked at me like really? But, I was emotionally drained and just had to let it out. I am doing way better and just looking forward to a speedy recovery for her.
I’ll have a post for you come Sunday, so be sure to check it out. Please follow and subscribe with my other social media channels. I enjoy connecting with you!!

I struggle with wearing bright colors in the summer. My summer wardrobe typically consist of boyfriend jeans/shorts, tees and a wedge or sandal. The most color can typically be found on my feet lol. I say each time summer rolls around that I am going to do better with my summer wardrobe and play with color a little more. Well, I think I have achieved that here, no? These shorts are the perfect length, no cheeks showing here! The top? I absolutely love these type of blouses, they are so easy to throw on and keep it moving. The shoes, yep, they’re pretty much greatness!
I am super excited to share with you that I am now a part of rewardStyle!! If you are not familiar with rewardStyle, they have a great feature for Instagram users called LiketoKnow.It With LiketoKnow.It users can sign up and shop your favorite Instagramers (namely me lol) posts and have product links sent directly to your email! All you do once you’re signed up, is “like” my post and the product links are sent directly to you! I absolutely love this service because with just a “double tap” of an image, I can shop looks from my email without having to hunt and search for where the blogger purchased the item. I know, this is dangerous for a shopaholic. But, trust me, its truly worth it!
Be sure to sign up here if you haven’t already! I’d love to know if there is anyone else out there who struggles a bit with adding color to your summer wardrobe. I LOVE the autumn season, so I will be impatiently waiting for it to roll around. The way Dallas is set up, that may not be until November 🙁
Thanks so much for stopping by and see you soon on Tuesday!!
Happy Thursday! I am so happy the weekend is approaching. Am I the only one who has the hardest time adjusting to work after vacation is over? I clearly am not but I sure do feel like it! It’s so hard for me to get motivated and moving when I return. The struggle!!
I am actually a little nervous about Friday this week. My little one’s in home daycare is closed for vacation for a week, so we are trying a back -up day care option through my employer. My mommy nerves are kicking in as this will be a little bit of an adjustment for my little one. She’ll be seeing new faces and in a new environment. She already has separation anxiety when it comes to me and not too keen on strangers. I did stop by this week to get a tour of the facility and it looks great. But, I am still nervous about how this change will affect her. I worry about her all the time, even when nothing is really wrong. I never thought that I would worry and pray over my baby as much as I do now. The world we live in is getting wiser and weaker as my mother would say. And the longer I am living, the more I see that is the case. But, what can you do but pray that you make good decisions and go with your gut right?! Keep me in your thoughts and prayers about this one please!
I hope you like this look. I love casual, but pulled together looks like this. Whats more simple then a white shirt, jeans and those too cute wedge mules?! They are actually VERY comfortable believe it or not and I absolutely love them. The purse is an oldie from JustFab from a few years ago and still looks great today. I pulled some dupes that I love that are affordable and just as cute as this one. See you soon on Sunday for another outfit post!
