Like strawberry wine and seventeen, The hot July moon saw everything. My first taste of love, oh bittersweet... The green on the vine Like strawberry wine...









Jacket: H&M ( Major Sale!!!)
Tee: J Crew Factory, similar
Heels: J Crew, similar
Necklace: c/o Moon and Lola
Sunnies: Shop Ruche
Earrings: Kendra Scott
Watch: Michael Kors
Bracelet: Kendra Scott

I've been keeping things pretty simple on the outfit front lately... reason one being the crazy weather here lately and reason two is the fact that summer is coming to a close and I am ready for a new season! Like everyone else out there FALL IS MY JAM! I love fall fashion and am always anxious for the September issues to hit the shelves. There is nothing like it! I love to layer, plaid is my BFF, and I can get enough of sweaters, boots, and scarves... so while Summer 2014 has been the highlight of my life... bring on Fall!!!! 

I found this amazing jacket on the H&M website when I went searching for the perfect denim jacket. I had been eyeballing one from Nordstrom... but it was a little steep as far as price goes. So, when I found this gem for $20 I almost died. I love the light denim and know it will transition into early fall well... but on top of that I can carry it into next summer! I love finding great staples at low prices. I always feel like I've hit the lottery.

I hope you had a wonderful, lazy weekend. Here's to a new week!

Thanks for reading!

Make it like your Birthday Everyday...












Top: Anthropologie, not available online
Wedges: Shoedazzle, similar
Hat: Forever 21 ($10!!!)
Watch: Michael Kors
Bracelet: Kendra Scott

I am a little obsessed with white denim y'all! Like major! These shorts have been on repeat all summer... They're just  so comfortable.  I wore this last week to take babe on a surprise date for his birthday. We spent the evening enjoying a small town dairy barn dinner.  Luke started a new job and is commuting over an hour for work... So time is of the essence when we get to see each other. I took him about 30 minutes from home to a small little dairy bar for ice cream and dinner that we took downtown and had as a picnic. He loved it! Of course we had to celebrate with cupcakes too!

Ps- The top is still available in store, but not online. I am obsessed! 

Happy weekend and thanks for reading!

Just a quick post to share another one of my favorite summer dresses. I'm a bit obsessed with nautical prints and finding this dress before the honeymoon made it a shoe in for my packing list. Like I said before... it got a little chilly most days and I didn't get to wear all of my honeymoon clothes. So here we are... wrapping up summer in leftover honeymoon clothes. This dress is from one of my favorite boutiques (reddressboutique). It is unfortunately sold out, but I have linked some great options below. I am obsessed with their dress selection. The new fall transition items on their site are also to die for! Check it out!

I hope you all have had a great week so far!

So you can keep me Inside the pocket of your ripped jeans Holding me closer 'til our eyes meet You won't ever be alone, wait for me to come home









Kimono c/o // Denim c/o // Wedges // Earrings // Necklace c/o //  Watch // Bracelet // Sunnies

Kimonos and denim shorts are two things I wouldn't have thought I would ever purchase... I always find myself thinking that denim shorts are either a. really redneck (I'm from Tennessee so I can say that...) or b. Hoochie Mama short! When Hott Kiss reached out to me about trying their denim I was anxious to see how they would work for me. Junior sizes don't usually  cooperate with me, but these were wonderful! I love how incredibly soft they are and the length is just right!

The kimono is from one of my new favorite shops ShopDressUp. I adore this store for two reasons: 1. the constant changing inventory and 2. the amazing price point! Nothing is over $42!!!! Obsessed! Gals on a budget hop on over to their site and prepare to swoon. 

Luke had a wonderful birthday yesterday. We spent the evening taking in this awesome weather with a picnic (obviously including cupcakes)

I hope you have a wonderful day! It's almost Friday!!!

Thanks for Reading!

You're like a sugar-sweet kiss in the morning, Sunshine pouring right into my window. Cool drink of water in the summer...







Dress, similar // Wedges // Bag // Necklace // Sunnies // Watch // Bracelet


If there is one thing in the world that screams summer... It's a fruit dress y'all! This gem was a find at Anthro last summer and the fact I haven't featured it here yet is crazy! I love this little thing and it also happens to be Luke's fave! 

I'm also obsessing over this bag from my gal Katie's shop My Kind of Lovely. The orange matches this dress to perfection but will also be perfect for football season!! Make sure you check out Katie's spot this Friday at Lululemon for tax free weekend! She has the cutest stuff! If you're in Knoxville.. GO!  Katie has more info on her blog so visit here and start making your Friday plans. 

Today is also Luke's birthday! I am so blessed to have him in my life and this little blog wouldn't exist without him! Love you babe!

Thanks for reading!!

You hit me like fire, shot me like a bullet. Burned me up and down, no way to cool it. But every time you kiss me it's like sunshine and whiskey.











I'm sure it's more than obvious that I am polka dot obsessed. This dress is a TJ Maxx find and I absolutely love the color. Things have been a little humid here so I find myself grabbing for dresses everyday to try to beat the heat. The wedges are on super sale and going fast so if you have been on the hunt for them this summer get 'em before they're gone!

I hope you had a wonderful weekend and if you are located in the Tennessee Valley area I hope you are safe and sound! The weather was out of control last night. We spent the greater part of the evening hiding out at my in laws house and trying to keep Rosey calm. (poor thing is terrified of storms)

Thanks for reading and have a wonderful day!
