Prim and Punk

Give me jeans and a blazer and I’m in heaven! Blazers are pulled together for those quick meetings and jeans just make the day feel easier… 

I paired the two with an effortless tank, a chic quilted bag and a pair of rocker-chic studded booties to give your look a little edge.

Minimal jewelry, a great red lip and you are Prim and Punk!

I am always putting together key pieces (booties and the blazer) with a few essential (jeans and a tank) to create a look that makes you feel comfortable and still fashionable.   When you’re a working Mom on the go, go-to pieces are essential, and a classic blazer is always mine!  Classic pieces last a lifetime and so can your style.

Xoxo,

Fantastic Flares!

 
One of my favorite style of jeans are Flares! They can be casual in a lighter shade or sexy for a date night out in a darker shade! But whenever or where ever you wear them, throw on a pair of heels and your legs will go for MILES!!

Flares are everywhere these days, as they should be, but a lot of women think they are more of just a causal and boho look. But I beg to differ...dressed up or dressed down flares are classic, chic and simple...not just your average pair of Mom jeans, ya know? :)

Here are a few options I put together for a day and night look... Enjoy!

The "day" look is accompanied by a simple air-dried look and barely-there make up.

The "date-night" look is paired with sleek and sexy straight hair and dynamic eyes.

Grey on Grey

Grey on Grey... This is my favorite look for Fall, its effortless, chic and comfy! I love my sweaters during the colder months. ( I live in Louisville, KY, so it's not THAT cold) But keeping the colors similar and creating texture with accessories is always chic and on-trend. :)

  It's also unexpected! I love any neutral on neutral style...white on white, black on black, ect... here is a look I created and can't wait to recreate!

The most useful tool I have found when it comes to Fashion are concept boards and lists… I’m a list maker, I’ll admit it… ;) 

I love to go through my magazines every season and come up with a “wish list”.  I pick out specific trends, shapes, styles, colors, and then just put them all up on a push board.  Stepping back to take in the BIG picture allows me to see my style sense for that season…it’s typically basics with a pop of color and a few different structures.

For example, I actually did my Fall board online so you all could see it!

Alaïa little black dress / Madewell button down shirt / Miss Selfridge peplum top / Bardot skater skirt, $93 / Valentino leather pants / Flat shoes, $37 / Madewell ballet shoes / Tory Burch leather wallet / Crystal jewelry / Vivienne Westwood silk scarve, $265 / Stella McCartney

Even with these few trends, I can mix them in with my basics and have a whole new wardrobe! 

As a working Mother and wife, there are few things I can be creative with so I allow my style to be my canvas!  Be Creative!

If you need any ideas on how to wear something email me and I’d love to give you some ideas and tips!

Timeless tote.... Lands End canvas bags have and will always be timeless to me.

I keep mine by the door at all times. Whether carrying groceries, gym clothes or toys, I always feel put together carrying it!

A couple things about me...

A couple of things about me...

I first of all I am in love with the Creator of all things, the Lord.  He guides me through all things with his strength and completes me.  I follow His will the best I can and He has endlessly blessed my life!  He is SO Good!

Secondly, I am 25 years old with a husband and 2 kids, whom I adore!  They teach me, love me, make me laugh and always keep me positive! 

Here are some pictures that I think really capture my life.... Enjoy!

How handsome is he?!

He really does "sweep me off my feet"
