Summer may not officially be over yet, but it's getting close! But the neon lover inside me will always roam free. Which is why I always fall in love with what The Impeccable Pig has. So much good stuff. All. The. Time! I wore this neon beauty on my 30th (yep, count it baby - THIRTIETH) birthday! I still want to have a big birthday bash at some point, but while we were in Charleston I just wanted to eat oysters and tacos, drink rose and spend some time with some special people. 

I spent my Labor Day Weekend binge watching Narcos (um yep - we finished the entire 2nd season in 2 days #noshame) eating take out, riding bikes with my husband and pup and just resting and relaxing. Ever since we started our new business, I've been struggling with finding the balance in our lives. So it was nice to just take a weekend and just chill. Does anyone else ever feel that way? 

Happy Wednesday lovelies - I hope you make it a fabulous one! xo

Outfit Post: Because Culottes Are Cool Again

Last week, I hit my last party of the summer. Since it took place after Labor Day, I figured it was the perfect time to smash that age old rule of "No White After Labor Day." I say, why not wear all white after Labor Day?

It's officially time to kiss summer goodbye. Although we won't say goodbye to warmer daytime temps, the morning and evenings are starting to cool off. Finally! I'm ready for a little bit cooler weather. My outfit idea during this transitional time? A culotte jumpsuit!

Remember when culottes were.. well cool? They're finally back in style! And if you didn't think you could wear them heading into fall, think again. Why not throw a blazer or light sweater over top for nighttime? Swap out your sandals for pumps and you've got a perfect "beginning of fall" going out look! 

I adore this culotte one piece from Missguided. My white option is sold out, but here's the exact same style in olive - talk about a spot on color for fall! (note: Missguided runs about 1 size small compared to US sizing.)

Happy Wednesday! Shop my outfit and other culotte jumpsuit options here:

Outfit Post: Neon Green Pleated Dress

Are you shocked I'm in another neon dress? Your answer is probably no, and I'm totally okay with that. Because this one, is a good one. And let's be honest, neon is always a good idea! I've seen some gorgeous neon pleated dresses floating around the internet (including on my #SBScon roomie Lindsay!) and I just had to get my hands on one. Thankfully, this one is a fraction of the price!

I landed back in NC yesterday AM and admittedly was a little bit sad. I always feel this way after visiting California and especially after spending time in Los Angeles. As hard as that city can be, I still love it so, so, so much. And miss it often! I'm thankful that I can always visit and who knows maybe one day I'll be back there. 

In the meantime, this neon number was the perfect, easy breezy outfit for wine tasting in Santa Barbara. It was pretty warm and the airy light fabric kept me nice and cool. Everyone loved the color and the best part? It's ridiculously affordable. Like SO affordable. 

I'm still coming down off an incredible high of a week with some of my best friends. I needed a little girl time in my life, and if you saw on instagram, we had a blast! I think I'll be recovering for the next week or so but it was totally worth it. And I didn't spill any wine on my new dress. Double score!

Hope you loves have a fantastic Tuesday! xo (shop the items of my post below!)

Outfit Post: Neon Orange & White Skater Dress

I'm still going through Charleston withdrawals from this past weekend's Southern Blog Society conference (or #SBScon as you may have seen floating around the blogsphere) There's something special about that little city. It's charming, beautiful, magical, and let's not forget hot as hell! Hence the crazed half-curled, half-uh-what? hairstyle happening in these photos.

That's okay though. Let's be honest. We all know I like my hair a little did-she-even-wash-or-brush-that-mane look. The first full day of the conference was jam packed with speakers, panels, networking, oh and champagne. Lots of champagne. Of course I had to wear something bright, fun and oh-so-Bedazzles After Dark. As always, The Impeccable Pig swooped in and saved the day with this fabulous neon skater dress.

If it's neon and from TIP, chance are pretty good I'm going to love it. I made this dress daytime wearable with neutral accessories, messy hair and minimal makeup. Just lots of mascara and several swipes of fuchsia lipstick. 

I don't know what it is, but I love the combination of an orange/coral dress with hot pink lipstick. Seem weird at all? Okay good because I don't plan on stopping. It leaves you feeling sassy with a capital Sssss!

You guys, there's so much I wanted to say about #SBScon. It was absolutely amazing. I could seriously go on and on, but more on that later.

Hope you guys have a wonderful Tuesday! Oh and I'm holding the RDU Baton today. Would love for you to follow along with me! xoxo

Outfit Post: Printed White Out

You guys... this heat is cray-cray! I feel like we jumped pretty much from winter into summer and skipped right over spring. Thank goodness for cutoffs and mesh tees to keep me cool!

I seriously can't get enough white. White Sunglasses. White Shoes. White Jewelry. All white everything please! But can we discuss how amazing these Yosi Samra flats are? I've a neon t-strap pair for a few years but this was my first pair of regular flats. And let me tell you... I don't want to take them off my feet! They're SO comfy! The best part is sipping them on to walk home in after a long day of heels at the office. But they totally work as a wear-all-day-comfy shoe too. 

Hope you guys had a WONDERFUL weekend. Let's make this Monday a fabulous one!
