12 Days of Holiday Style: Ho-Ho-Hollywood Glam!

This skirt/crop set is the thing Christmas dreams are made of! The ruched detail, the long sleeve, the midi-length of the skirt....I feel like it's the perfect update to an old Hollywood style look for Christmas! I paired it with my trusty nude block-heeled sandals and a faux fur stole, but ... Read More

12 Days of Holiday Style: It's Almost Christmas Morning!

I'm 31, but I still get excited for Christmas morning! I insist on getting new jammies every year for the occasion, and these made me pretty happy! I need all the good vibes I can get when I'm making sure Santa checked me off his list! These bright red leggings were part of a set from ... Read More

12 Days of Holiday Style: Girls Love Pearls!

I don't know what it is, but pearls scattered all over luxe fabrics just do something to me! Why not remix the traditional "New Years Eve" glam with fun fabrics and embellishments?! I'm usually a glitter/sequin girl, but I fell head over heels for this black velvet number with faux pearl ... Read More

12 Days of Holiday Style: Work from Home!

The best thing about blogging is that I can literally do it from my bed! When I'm home, and in my groove, I'm a "no pants, no problems" kinda girl! I recently went to Nordstrom with my girl Megan (you may have seen our shenanigans on my Instagram story!), and we got this super cozy ... Read More

12 Days of Holiday Style: Glimmering Glam!

The tree is trimmed, the gifts are wrapped (well, most of them), and you're ready for a day full of family, food, and festivities! Enter: Luxe metallic shimmer, faux wrap with gorgeous ruched detail, and a neckline you can wear off the shoulder, or the more conservative way! This dress pretty ... Read More

12 Days of Holiday Style: Neon Chic Date Night!

I mentioned in my last post that sometimes it's nice to break away from the more traditional holiday color scheme... ...and the proof is in the puddin'! I am obsessed with this neon/neutral combo and think it's perfect for stepping out on the town! It's a little bit Grinch-y, in the very ... Read More

12 Days of Holiday Style: Say it with Sequins!

You've figured out by now that I'm a sucker for sparkles. So it's no surprise that when I saw this skirt drop for the FTF holiday collection, I snapped it up reaaaaaal quick! The color scheme makes it perfect for any special occasion, and it's a nice way to break out of that traditional ... Read More

  • 4 weeks out of work and in doctor-ordered isolation gave me a LOT of time to organize my overwhelming underwear collection.⁠ ⁠ Why do I own SO MUCH, you may ask? Well, it's simple: I'm one of those people who's always babbling about how having pretty under-things makes them feel more put together. As someone who works 12 hour shifts in yoga pants, and doesn't have a ton of reasons to dress up, this is where I spend a little extra self-care time and indulge in the "ritual" of getting ready...even if no one will see them. ⁠ ⁠ Not to mention the little bit of shopping I did to add to the collection while I was sitting at my laptop and wondering when I could start swimsuit shopping again. 👙 #firstworldproblems⁠ ⁠ I've rounded up my latest faves for size inclusive lingerie: brands that bring it with tons of style, and a passion for providing all types of bodies with cute things to jazz up your undie drawer! ⁠#linkinbio⁠ ⁠ These are just some of my faves...I'll keep adding to this list, and I'm working on some unboxing/haul videos to give you a better idea of sizing/fit/quality/etc!⁠ ⁠ Where do you buy YOUR fave undies? Sound off, and maybe you'll see some of those brands in my upcoming hauls! ⁠ .⁠ .⁠ .⁠ #curvesandacarryon #pmmlovemybody #sizeinclusivebrands #bodypositivebrands #psootd #plussizelingerie #plussizeblogger #plussizefashion #newpost #sizeinclusivestyle #curvystylefinds #plussizestylefinds #plussizefashionblog #plussizedfashion⁠ #savagexsummer #contest
