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!

Sunday ritual with Pup-Peroni®

This is a sponsored conversation written by me on behalf of The J.M. Smucker Company. The opinions and text are all mine.

One thing I really love and look forward to is our Sunday ritual. It feels good to end the week in a healthy routine, and to get ready for a fresh week ahead. It’s our time to grab brunch, go grocery shopping, take Winny for a long walk, relax, nap, catch up on TV shows, and cook a yummy dinner or splurge and order takeout pizza for a cozy night in. It’s such a treat after a long work week! We decided it was only fair to give Winny a special treat too – with some Pup-Peroni® Original Beef Flavor Minis, ideal for smaller dogs, which are available at Meijer! Be sure to check out their mPerk right now that’s good for 15% off any Pup-Peroni product!

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!

Weekend wardrobe

Onto a new month! I’m so excited for March. We have the first day of spring, and daylight saving begins! It truly starts to feel like spring is on the way when that arrives. That means I can start to switch over my wardrobe from bulky sweaters and winter boots to cute flats and cozy cardigans! For this outfit though, even with snow still on the ground, I couldn’t wait to bust out a few new things… including this adorable cross body bag from Radley. Obviously I gravitated toward this purse for the gorgeous cognac color (it goes with everything in my closet) but I also love the smaller size for when I don’t need to carry as much to work. It’s perfect for my weekend wardrobe!

End of February

Onto the end of February... finally! I hate to wish time away, especially a slow season in life where you can use the weather as an excuse to stay in your pajamas and binge-watch Netflix all day, but I'm definitely ready for spring. The last couple of days it's been in the 50s, and it's honestly felt so amazing. You step outside and you're not just totally frigid to the bone. Last weekend, it was still pretty gray, but warm enough to finally shoot an outfit post without a winter jacket! I'm still gravitating toward turtlenecks and tights though, but that's what I love about transitional seasons. You can mix it up a little bit!
