Pretty Prints

Posted on August 29, 2017August 29, 2017 by KSSBelle

This outfit is definitely one of my favorites to throw on when I’m short on time for a date night or a Moms night out! You can never go wrong with a silk blouse, skinny jeans & a great pair of heels. I love the majority of polka dot prints, and this silk top was so cute! The bow ties on the shoulders are unexpected & feminine. In my opinion, you can never have too many bows in your closet. I’m thinking of adding this one next. You can easily wear this outfit in the Fall, by just adding a blazer or classic cardigan like this or this one!
These jeans are perfect for chasing your little ones during the day, but you can totally dress them up as well. On a side note, they do run on the small side, so I would go up one size. I love the “whiskered” wash for something new. My favorite finishing touch to this outfit? The shoes, of course! I fell in love with these pom pom heels during the Nordstrom Anniversary Sale, and have them in 2 colors. I don’t wear heels during the day (#momlife), but I definitely wear them every chance I get for a night out!

Dreaming of Fall

Posted on August 23, 2017August 23, 2017 by KSSBelle

Happy Wednesday, Friends!

By this point in the Summer, I’m pretty much dreaming of Fall, every.single.day. I’m almost the reverse of many, and I hibernate during these hot, hot months. I love to be outside, but I really don’t like to sweat unless I’m actually in workout clothes & working out. Anyway, as you can tell from this post that I’m already mentally changing my closet to Fall, even if the temperatures outside don’t match. Only 30 days to go!

Here’s what I’m dreaming of adding to my closet this Fall!

Happy Shopping!

Trouve Wrap Blouse

This top is beautiful & feminine, and can be worn so many ways. Makes a great date night top!

WAYF Beckett Tiered Bell Sleeve Top

Love this gingham top, the sleeves, the bow, everything. It comes in a few other prints, too.

J.Crew Ruffle Stripe Shirt

Stripes & ruffles, pretty much the best combo ever.

Halogen Tie Sleeve Sweater

This sweater will end up in my closet and be worn on repeat all season long.

Halogen Long Linen Blend Cardigan

You can layer so many tops with this classic cardigan. This cardigan comes in tons of colors, & I really like the longer length for something different.

Free People Ottoman Tunic

This tunic looks so cozy on a cold winters night!

Gibson Twist Front Fleece Pullover

A thinner fleece is all I need to throw on over a workout tank top. It comes in TONS of colors, too.

PAIGE Verdugo Ankle Skinny Jeans

White denim is my favorite pair of pants to wear during the Fall/Winter months. This pair is next up on the wish list to add to my collection.

PAIGE High Waist Undone Hem Denim

I bought these pants during the sale, and they’re literally the best high wait jeans I’ve ever owned. Totally flattering, and I love the undone hem! These have been on major repeat!

Belle Badgley Mischka Holly Coat

Just another day, and another coat that I’ve fallen madly in love with…

Tory Burch Gigi Block Heel Pumps

Hello Gorgeous! So classic, so chic.

Kate Spade New York Cece Loafer

Kate Spade never disappoints (ever!), and especially with these leopard loafers. You’ll wear them for years.

Sam Edelman Faux Fur Pompom flats

A fabulous pair of neutral flats for Fall. Need I say more?

Valentino Rockstud Ballerina Flats

Love, love, love! Maybe this year they’ll end up in my closet, maybe.

J.Crew Slingback Flats

Another perfect neutral flat, as a busy Mom of two, they’re a dream come true.

BP. Cat Eye Sunglasses

$12.00 cat eye sunglasses, perfect style & price.

UGG Slippers

I love a great slipper in the colder months, these look so warm & comfy!

Burberry Small Canter Horseferry Check Tote

The “It’ll go with everything I wear” bag.

David Yurman Small Pearl Earrings

I’m a pearl girl, and these are so dainty & dreamy to me.

BaubleBar Shoulder Duster Earrings

Love this new style! So dramatic and fun for a night out!

Kate Spade Stud Earrings

Classic stud earrings are my everyday “go-to earrings,” and these will match everything. Added bonus, they’ll brighten up a dreary winters day!

Are you ready for Summer to come to an end? If so, what are you dreaming about for Fall?

Have a happy day!

Friday Favorites!

Posted on August 18, 2017August 18, 2017 by KSSBelle

Happy Friday, Friends! I hope that your week was a fun one, and you’re ready for a fun weekend ahead! We returned from a long weekend late Monday evening, and I feel like I’ve been playing catch up all week long with laundry, grocery shopping, cleaning, etc. I finally feel like everything’s back to normal now. I’m a creature of habit (aren’t we all?), and being back into “our routine” is such a good feeling! To say I’m looking forward to this weekend is an understatement!

Here’s another edition of “Friday Favorites” for you!

ONE

I recently purchased this book, and I highly recommend it.

TWO

This top is so versatile, you’ll literally be wearing this now, and then under blazers, sweaters and cardigans through Fall/Winter. It’s what I would call my “four season” top.

THREE

This clutch is on the top of my “wish list” for Fall. So ready for the cool, crisp days ahead!

FOUR

These earrings are so pretty (& happy!), and would be a fun addition to any outfit for a date night or girls night out!

A Classic Look

Posted on August 15, 2017August 15, 2017 by KSSBelle

If I had to pick just one foolproof outfit in my closet it would be wearing “classic black” from head to toe. When I worked in Marketing, it was one of my favorite outfits to wear. Besides the fact that it makes you look slimmer, it’s timeless & incredibly chic, on everyone. The best part, in my opinion, is that you can wear whatever accessories you want with it, and it always looks amazing, year round. You just can’t go wrong, am I right?
These skinny pants from J.Crew are a must-have in your closet. I bought this top last year from Loft, but this & this are super cute, and this one is just perfect for Fall. This sweater, and this top are on the top of my wish list right now. Oh, and these sandals look like my favorite Loeffler Randall designer (a girl can dream, right?!), but are much more budget-friendly in my book. I bought this handbag during the Nordstrom sale, and it was sold out, but is restocked now (yay!), and is yet another dupe of one of my favorite designer looks/handbags, Givenchy.
So, if you had to choose, what’s your favorite foolproof outfit in your closet?

J.Crew Skinny Pants / Loft Off the Shoulder Top (sold out, similar) / Chinese Laundry Heels / Sole Society Handbag / Kate Spade Gold Watch / Gold Bracelets (similar)

Happy Tuesday, Friends!

Summer Blue & White

Posted on August 7, 2017August 7, 2017 by KSSBelle

School may be right around the corner (which typically makes me only want to think about Fall, no matter how old I get), and Summer is still hot, literally, so that’s why these pants are the right pick for attempting to beat the heat. I love my skinny pants & jeans; however, these wide leg, cropped pants fit the bill when I need to hit the refresh button. They’re on sale, and an alternative to shorts, which I rarely wear anymore. These and these are also great options to choose from, if you like this cropped/wide leg style as much as I do.
I bought this classic top from Loft during a Spring sale, but there are so many great look-alikes out there, like this, this and this one! This one is embroidered, and a great deal to wear now, & put in your closet for next year, too! These kinds of tops are perfect “no-brainer” tops to wear with pretty much everything in your closet.

Loft One Shoulder top (sold out, similar & similar) / Banana Republic Stripe Pants (on sale!) / J.Crew Factory Heels (old, similar) / Deux Lux Scallop Clutch (old, similar) / Vintage bracelet (similar) / Kate Spade Gold Watch (old, similar) / J.Crew Earrings (old, similar)

Have a happy Monday!

Friday Favorites

Posted on August 4, 2017 by KSSBelle

Happy Friday! We’ve had a great, but extremely busy week this week, hence being short on posts. I hope that you’re just as excited to see Friday here as I am! Do you have big plans for the weekend? With only a few more weeks of “summer” left, we’re planning on doing more “summer stuff” with the little ones. I still can’t believe school starts soon! This Summer has flown by for us, how about you?

Here’s another edition of “Friday Favorites” for you!

ONE
This quote. So true.

TWO
I have a much needed hair appointment tomorrow, and it’s seriously like therapy to me! Does anyone else feel this way?

THREE
I picked this wine up at Target on a whim, and I’m glad that I did. My husband & I loved it on our “patio dates” this week. It’s the perfect Summer wine.

FOUR
The farmer’s market produce is SO much better than the grocery stores! We’ve been enjoying ours all week long. What’s your favorite place to buy produce? I can’t wait to go back this weekend, and I love supporting our local farmers.

FIVE
UGG Cozy Lounge Poncho

Maybe it’s because Summer is coming to a close, and I’m really starting to crave Fall, but this poncho looks so perfect for Fall/Winter, school drop-off, tailgating, errands & playing in the backyard with the kids. It comes in 3 colors, too.

Have a happy weekend!

Friday Favorites!

Posted on July 28, 2017July 28, 2017 by KSSBelle

T.G.I.F. Friends! I hope your week has been a great one!

I’m really ready for some cooler, crisp Fall days. I cannot wait until Fall arrives! Last night, we talked about heading to the mountains with our littles this weekend to try & escape this heat! We might just do that, and I can’t wait!

Here’s another edition of “Friday Favorites” for you!

ONE

During the Nordstrom Anniversary Sale (And, it’s still going strong!) I ordered these heels, and they are even more gorgeous in person. I loved them so much, I ordered them in two colors, midnight & slate suede. Classic move by me. If I find something I love this much, I always order it in more than one color. No regrets here.

Charles by Charles David Sadie Pumps

TWO
I was at The Fresh Market last night picking up a few things, and I decided to change up my lunch routine. This week I’m making roasted chicken salad lettuce wraps. If you’re short on time, The Fresh Market has THE BEST roasted chicken salad.

How beautiful is this kitchen? image via

THREE
For a manicure, I normally wear OPI “bubble bath” all.of.the.time., but lately I’ve wanted a classic red. Either way, essie “5th Avenue” is my next go-to manicure color. What’s your favorite?

FOUR
Rodan + Fields Lash Boost is AMAZING!!!! Have you tried it? I’ve never been happier with my lashes!!

FIVE
My favorite pin of the week.

I hope you have a happy, happy weekend!

Beauty – A Few Favorites

Posted on July 26, 2017July 26, 2017 by KSSBelle

Hi, Friends! I hope your week is going well. I’m so glad it’s Wednesday, because that means we’re one day closer to the weekend.

I love hearing about what beauty products others love, so I thought I’d share what I’m loving right now.

Laura Mercier Flawless Skin Repair

As hard as it is to admit, I recognized about a year ago that I was starting to look “older” in photographs, so I decided to take action with this repair serum. It definitely has helped make my skin look & feel more firm, and I’ve noticed a huge difference. I use it in the morning and in the evening. I call it my “botox in a bottle!”

Laura Mercier Flawless Skin Repair Creme

I use this with the repair serum at night. It makes your skin feel like silk, and it smells so good too!

Charlotte Tilbury Healthy Glow

Love having a tan, but, you don’t want to risk damaging your skin anymore with the sun? Well, me too. I still want a pretty glow though, and this stuff is a miracle worker. I put a tiny bit on my face every morning after I apply my moisturizer, and magic…my face is glowing (so natural looking)! I plan to use this stuff year round. It’s that good.

CHANEL ROUGE COCO GLOSS Top Coat

Fun Fact: I don’t wear lipstick. I’m a lip gloss only kind of girl, and this is the BEST lip gloss I’ve found in years. Trust me, I’ve tried a lot. It’s not sticky, and it lasts a long time! If you do love lipstick, you can wear this as a top coat over your lipstick.

What beauty favorites are you loving right now? Please share!

Hope y’all have a wonderful day!

Nordstrom Anniversary Sale – Handbag Edit

Posted on July 24, 2017July 24, 2017 by KSSBelle

Hi, Everyone! Did you have a great weekend? We did! My husband was out of town on business for part of the weekend, so I met my parents for dinner with the littles on Friday night, which was really nice to see them. Yesterday, was pretty low key, so we relaxed most of the day. The weekends always fly by too fast. Either way, I hope your Monday is off to a great start so far!

Since the Nordstrom Anniversary Sale is still going strong, I thought I’d write a post on my favorite handbags in the sale. One of my favorite Sole Society handbags sold out (love their stuff, but I’ll let you know if it gets restocked!), but there are still some great bags left in the sale! Handbags can really elevate any look you’re wearing, so here are my favorites.

Happy Shopping!

Madewell Paint Stripe Transport Tote

This tote is so perfect for everyday. It will go with every outfit (even workout clothes). It’s classic, won’t break the bank, and I really like the English Saddle color. It comes in 3 other colors.

Tory Burch Frida Pebbled Leather Tote

I really prefer totes, because they hold everything (#momlife), but it’s more the “structured” look of the tote that I love. It’s definitely a splurge, but a polished one you’ll never get tired of in your closet.

Ted Baker London Crossbody Bag

This is the perfect pop of pink, and a great date night handbag! So cute! It also comes in a neutral grey color as well.

ALLSAINTS Raye Leather Tote

I love this simplicity of this tote. It’s very tailored looking, yet still modern enough for everyday use. It’s casual, but what I’d consider “dressed up casual,” which is more my style.

Tory Burch Frida Stitched Suede Satchel

This suede satchel is absolutely beautiful for Fall/Winter. I love, love, love the port color. It is an investment, but one you won’t regret!

TGIF + Nordstrom Anniversary Sale Picks!

Posted on July 21, 2017 by KSSBelle

Happy Friday, Friends! I know that everyone is excited it’s Friday, and that the Nordstrom Anniversary Sale is now open to all for shopping! YAY!

There are still a TON of cute, classic things in the sale, so I’ve rounded up some more of my favorites for you!

Happy Shopping!

Pleione Pleat Inset French Terry Top

A cute stripe, peplum top? Say no more.

Cece Jada Scallop Shirtdress

This dress looks like a Kate Spade design, but for a fraction of the price. So chic.

Chelsea28 Shoulder Ruffle Shift Dress

This navy dress is so pretty, and flattering. Long sleeve shift, with ruffles? Oh, and did I mention it’s under $100 (during the sale!)?

Vince Camuto Jumpsuit

This is so gorgeous. The “poppy” color is my favorite. It also comes in black.

Halogen Poplin Peplum Top

This peplum top is darling. It’s great to wear now, and for layering in the Fall/Winter.

Gibson Bell Sleeve Fleece Pullover

This sweater comes in several colors, but I love the grey. It would look so cute with jeans and leggings for something more casual. I can see myself wearing this to preschool drop-off, a lot.

Paige Hoxton High Waist Ankle Skinny Jeans

Another classic skinny jean, under $100 (during the sale!).

Hinge Barris Block Heel bootie

This is the first bootie that I actually have fallen for this year. It’s a low heel (which is nice, since I’m 5’10), and the cut is timeless. I see this pair in my future.

Kate Spade New York Watch

This watch is stunning, and the two-tone is perfect. My wedding set is white gold, but I wear my grandmother’s engagement ring which is gold and platinum on my right hand. This watch is a classic in my book.

Tahari Maria Double Face Wool Wrap Coat

This coat is beautiful, and will go with everything you wear. Dress it up or down.

Ted Baker London Wool Blend Wrap Coat

Coats are my weakness. This wrap coat is absolutely stunning, and will be in your closet for years to come.

Tory Burch Frida Leather Satchel

I love, love, LOVE this handbag. It comes in 3 colors, but the blush is calling my name.

PAIGE Transcend Hoxton High Waist undone hem

I keep coming back to these jeans. I really like the staggered raw hem for something different. You can totally dress these up or down depending on where you’re headed.

What have you found in the sale that you love?
