10x10 | Outfit 2

Onto outfit #2 of the spring 10x10 challenge! I knew I'd love this outfit, because I love each of the pieces so much on their own. I recently purchased these Levi's wedgie fit jeans from Zappos. They are the total mom jean, and I love them. I am officially a mom without a baby at this point. It's okay. I've accepted it. I'm typically in bed by 9pm. My idea of a good time is a comfy booth with a glass of wine, or some purple grapes while watching American Idol. I listen to a finance podcast everyday. Dang, my thirties are awesome. I have no shame. I love this decade so far! Hahaha.

10x10 | Outfit 1

I'm a couple of days behind... but here's my first outfit of the 10x10 challenge! Since we had some dry weather this weekend, I thought it'd be a good time to bring out this dress. I'm not sure what the weather is going to hold over the next week (looks like maybe some rain or snow) so I thought I'd knock this one out while I had the chance! Most of my looks will incorporate jeans (which are my usual anyway) so that'll be safer for cold weather! Even though it was 33º when we shot these photos. Brr! The three pieces from my 10x10 are this floral Madewell dress, my denim jacket, and my mules. For accessories, I paired my small tote, some cute earrings from Rebels Mark and my brimmed hat from Gigi Pip! (If you missed my intro to the 10x10, you can read it here!)

Weekday casual

Almost Friday! This week flew, which is great, because I'm all about starting a new month. Especially one that is fully spring! I just love starting a new month of budgeting, a new month of goals, a new month of plans and fun. It's such an exciting time of year, and there are so many good things happening. I'm just really pumped for this season. To start seeing flowers bloom. To listen to thunderstorms. I'm thrilled for it all! What are you looking forward to most this season?

Alley vibes

Onto Tuesday! We snapped these photos while we were out and about downtown picking up takeout. My favorite Thai place is downtown — Bangkok Taste Cuisine. They have the best Kow Pad! Plus, I love their veggie spring rolls. So good! I grabbed my leather jacket to throw on top of my gray boyfriend tee and high-waisted jeans. I saw a similar outfit on Pinterest recently, and loved how casual yet cool it looked. I’m all about simplicity + casual looks, but hoping to bust out more dresses once it warms up! It was still really cold over the weekend (still some ice left, as you can see!). We’re getting there though… slowly, but surely.

Plant shopping

It's officially spring! It's also officially still in the thirties here in Michigan. It's been so cold! It's deceiving too... because we've been getting so much sunshine. So you feel guilty staying inside doing your normal winter hibernating, but then you step outside to frigid winds! So I still busted out all of my spring things this weekend... but stayed mostly indoors. We went to a matinee, did a little plant shopping, grabbed brunch with friends, and caught up on a few things around the house. I couldn't wait though to wear my new penny loafers (obsessed!), my new summer jeans from Madewell, and my new pretty pink tote from Universal Thread!

Denim uniform

For about a week there, we had some pretty awesome mild temps and sunshine! Now we're back to cold and snow... hello, March. While I could though, I busted out my denim jacket and chucks! I'm definitely ready for spring clothes. I'm totally fine with layers! Don't get me wrong. I just really really want to put away my bulky winter boots and fur-lined parka jackets once and for all! See ya never. BYE. Just gotta hang tight. We're so close! You just never know with March in Michigan... and technically it is still winter. So I'm just going to try and enjoy the last two weeks of it. Try being the key word here!
