Business in the Front...The Mule

 I've had a tendency lately of referencing things to a mullet! Maybe it's because our little Fiona has been rocking one for months (we did just part with hers this past weekend when she got her 1st haircut...see the pics here).  I also recently shared our new kitchen rug where I let you all in on our "kitchen mullet" secret.  You can see those details here!

So moving on to my new "mullet" obsession...MULES!

 Can't you see the business in the front and party in the back?! 

I have been eyeing several pairs for a while now, but it wasn't until about a month ago that I finally picked up a pair and HELLO I was totally missing out.  

Here is a round up of my current favorites.  I've linked them all below so you can grab a pair (or two) for yourself!  

Seriously, I need all of these to move into my shoe closet ASAP!

 

1. Leopard 

2. Grey, Pink, Black 

3. Pointed Mules (velvet and leather)  

4. Comfy Loafer Mule 

5. The Blush Mule bow, breezy, palmer mule 

6.White, mint, gold 

1. Leopard prints I feel like we all have a tendency to debate if they are a trend or classic - I have to say I think it's a total classic and everyone needs a few staple leopard pieces in their closet for when they are feeling extra frisky! 

2. Ok these darlings come in 4 different colors and are only $34!  A pair of these will definitely be coming home with me! 

3. These mules, especially the brown leather are floating ALL over IG and every time I see them I am more convinced I need them!  I'm told they are BEYOND comfortable! 

4. That first pair of mules I snagged...this would be them! Seriously, they are like a dressed up bedroom shoe that you are actually allowed to wear outside of your home! I love to pair mine with oversized sweaters and my Rock-star Jeggings!!  I actually just wore them on Sunday - you can see the outfit details here.  

5. "My Colors are Blush and Bashful"... Sorry, I cannot resist a chance to quote Steele Magnolias!   So for me these are just so lady like and delicate and for those reasons alone, I need them!  

6.  Last, but not least...the mule I have been obsessing over and debating which color I want to order! This style comes in 6 different colors and I've narrowed it down to these three! Feel free to comment below and help me decide!

 

So, for all you ladies on the fence about should you or shouldn't you buy those cute pair of mules...DO IT!! I promise they will quickly become your new favorite everyday shoe!

 

Fashion Fix Friday {Choker Necklace}

This week we are talking about a trend that I totally was obsessed with in the early 90's!  

Choker necklaces!  

I swear, give me a cameo choker necklace and call it a day!! I loved them and STILL love this look.  I am super excited to see them popping up again.  This time around I might just let the cameo be, while I obsess the look of the ribbon choker.

Here are a few looks to get you inspired!

Fashion Fix Friday {Rainy Day Styled}

Holy monsoon!

It's raining buckets outside today in NC and I'm 

loving it! I adore a good rainy day however, I love them most when I'm

in total lounge mode curled up indoors.

On occasion I do fancy dressing up in my rainy day best

and heading out doors to splish-splash around!

On days like today a girls got to look her best and not

like the horrid visual of a wet rat!

Here's a little something I pulled together to help 

us stay stylish in the rain!

Fashion Fix Friday {Oversized}

A staple piece in my fall wardrobe every year is extra comfy

oversized sweaters.  I can't walk through a store without 

having to reach out and snuggle with each one I see!

 They are just comfort for the soul in my opinion.

 This fall one color I know I will turn to is grey, so I rounded 

up a few pieces of oversized perfection to get us 

feeling all warm and fuzzy inside on this Friday!

Wishing you all a wonderful weekend!

On Vacation {See Y'all Monday}

Ladies and Gents this lil' lady is officially in

vacation mode. To be completely honest I didn't have time

to pull today's post together so I decided to leave y'all with a few

of my favorite images of this fun and festive holiday weekend from 

everyone's favorite, Pinterest .

We can always use a little inspiration, right?!

 

 

See you all back here on Monday for a full weekend wrap up and 

quote of the week!

Have a safe and Happy 4th of July weekend!

 

Fashion Fix Friday {Monochromatic}

A simple look that anyone can work with is monochromatic, a mixture of the same color in various shades.  The mono look has been around in the fashion world for as long as I can remember, 

but it seems to be ultra-popular right now.

Have a blast this weekend and why not give

a monochromatic outfit a try?! 

Fashion Fix Friday {Navy + Stripes}

Growing up I was so against navy!  

 I thought when it came to fashion, navy was always trumped by black!   

Eventually, I slowly started to find myself gravitating towards the nautical color and 

totally falling completely in love with the hue.  Even so much as to paint a navy accent wall 

in our family room.  There is just something so summery about the color and it’s no secret 

that I am a hot weather loving, southern girl. 

So with that said, Happy Fashion Fix Friday!

Let’s talk Navy…and Stripes! One infectious combination!

 

Add some navy to your summer wardrobe!

Fashion Fix Friday {Culottes...They're Back}

Ready or not, Culottes are back and making a huge appearance in spring 2015!

My husband absolutely despises anything capri length let alone “baggy” (aka my boyfriend jeans) so they will definitely NOT be a hit with him and I would venture to guess that many others are not a fan.  However, culottes done RIGHT I think can be very chic and hello, pick up the right pair and you have your newest pants of comfy perfection!

Here is a roundup of ladies rocking culottes 

in a fresh and spunky new way. 

 

 

 

My personal fave!
