Bodysuit + Jeans: Transitioning From Winter to Spring

I grew up taking dance classes so bodysuits have always been in my life. But I never really thought to wear them as part of an outfit.  Over the past couple of years they have definitely been trending, making their way back into the front line of fashion and into my closet.  What I love about bodysuits is that they are perfect for any season. You can pair them with jean shorts in the spring/summer or with jeans in the fall/winter. It can also be used to dress up or dress down a look! You can throw on a jacket over top if it's cold or if you are trying to dress it up for work or an event. The best part is that you don't have to worry about your shirt coming un-tucked!

Spring Cleaning + Saying Bye to Negativity

It's finally nice outside and I am home with the flu!  On the bright side, it has given me time to rest and reflect on some things.  Self-worth & Social Media: I have worked hard on myself over the past several months and I feel great. Not only have I made a mental transformation, but also a physical one. I finally feel like “me” again and it’s great to be back after feeling that way for a couple of years.  A couple of years of being very hard on myself. I am thankful for my family and friends who have ALWAYS supported me. For those who are truly happy for me when I am happy and who are there if I’m not.  My circle is small, so if I've let you in, it's because I trust you as a person and value your friendship. I've gotten to the point in my life where petty things don't bother me too much. But sometimes social media throws you for a loop. Like when someone who you considered a friend "unfollows" you on social media. I

New Boutique Alert!

Y’all. There is a new boutique store in Greensboro. It’s called Cozy Calla Lily. I stopped by on my way home from a conference and let me tell you, it did not disappoint! I met the owners, Melanie and Allen, both very nice and helpful. We chatted as I browsed thier amazing collection and Melanie got me set up with a fitting room, which is super cute by the way! I grabbed so many pretty things to try on and loved everything I put on! I didn’t get everything, but  I will definitely be going back for more later! I didn’t get this dress. But, not because I didn’t love it. It’s so pretty and looks very flattering on. You will need to size up because it runs a little small. I will be purchasing for summer! For reference I got a size medium in the dress. I have lots of cute stuff that I bought and can’t wait to post after I wear them! Lots of pastels, lace and polka dots! I also tried on these super cute jeans!! I didn’t get them but...they look good! Size 0 for reference
