Style File: Weekend Layers

I am on the hunt for a raincoat. This has been on the top of my list of items to keep an eye out for so long. Seems like an endless search since nothing I come across looks versatile, chic, or functional enough. Anyone have any suggestions?

Trying to desperately break away from the wellies and parka. Thankfully the rain hasn't been torrential and I've been managing to stay comfy and dry with lots of layers, sneakers, and my trusty umbrella.

This has been one amazing week. So many things to be grateful for! Maybe I'll share more details soon! ;)

Hope you had a fantastic weekend! Thanks for dropping by!

Birthday

My kind of color! It has been an amazing first year in my 30's and I am so excited for what's coming next. I've been blessed with so much throughout the years, and I'm so thankful. Something that I didn't expect was how much I would enjoy this age. The teens and 20's are all about making those mistakes - falling down, getting up, and going through all the growing pains. At 30, you know yourself better, understand what things matter most, and can make use of what you've learned and earned....and enjoy it all with the people you love!

Hubby spoiled me rotten this year! Love him and our little family more than words can say! We are off to enjoy a proper date night to celebrate.

Thanks for dropping by and for the sweet Birthday wishes i've received from near and far! 

P.S - Can you guess what's in my orange box!?

I've been battling a weird bug since Thursday, but that didn't stop me from enjoying the weekend. We checked into The Westin Saint Francis for a little 2-day family staycation to celebrate my upcoming birthday. Even if San Francisco is practically our backyard, it felt great to "get-away" and explore our favorite city up close and personal. 

Thanks for dropping by! Have a great week!

In My Closet: Dangerous

Every mom needs a pair of flats that'll make her feel oh-so-dangerous!

A few months ago I purchased the strapless version of these bad girls but ended up returning them. I decided I preferred the caged style (they add that extra edge!!). Can't tell you how unbelievably comfortable they are- and how fab I feel while wearing them. They're especially perfect for days I need that boost - adding the perfect dose of ooomph to my step!

Thanks for dropping by!

Style File: Blush

Added a touch of "color" to my date night ensemble (it is after all, Valentine's Day!). This kind of nude-blush hue is the perfect addition to my monochromatic closet. 

We're planning to head out for a family date night then snuggle up together on the couch to watch House of Cards. I hope you have a fabulous weekend! Thank you SO much for dropping by.

I can't get enough of all the amazing steals and deals everywhere this time of year! I've picked up a lot of insane bargains over the past few weeks. The winner in my book has got to be Nordstrom Rack. These flat suede over-the-knee boots were a fraction (of a fraction...) of what I had initially been eyeing.  I don't like diving into trends, but I do like stepping out of my comfort zone once in a while. Because the quality, comfort and price all fit the bill - I didn't hesitate and bit the bullet. SO glad I did. I've discovered that they are actually pretty flattering! 

Minus the accessories, this ensemble is a super steal - the cashmere sweater is a thrift store score ( the men's section has the best sweaters - I wear this almost every day!), and the skirt is from Forever 21. Nothing gets me more excited than finding a good deal and seamlessly mixing high-low pieces.

Be sure to drop by your nearest Rack! They'll be having their clear the rack event from February 14-17 for an additional 25% off clearance. Have a great weekend and thanks for dropping by!
