STYLE SESSION // 3 JEANS, 3 OUTFITS

LOOK 1 // LOOK 2 // LOOK 3

This is my first style session of 2020, and I hope it inspires you to JUST PUT ON THE JEANS. I never used to wear jeans… dresses and skirts were my go-to because I didn’t feel comfortable in jeans. But this year I’ve realized how much I wear them now. This is the first of many denim stylings I’m sure.

Watch the IGTV session here (a quick video with music) on my Instagram. Below are the size details and links for everything:

WHAT I WORE // DISTRESSED DENIM + LEOPARD BOOTIES

JACKET // TOP // LEGGINGS // BOOTS // SUNNIES // TOTE

First of all… let me just get this out of the way. The cut-out side of these boots IS SLAYING ME. It is so flattering what it does to your ankle and your leg. I’m in love! I’m also utilizing the theory that “leopard is a neutral” here - and in this case, I thought it brought out the warm colors of the shirt perfectly.

I rarely throw a cropped jacket with leggings, but today I’m showing you it’s possible!

ON PRINT MIXING // + why you should try it

COAT // SKIRT // TOP // BOOTS

I finally ordered some items from Blair Eadie’s collaboration with Halogen at Nordstrom and I LOVE the versatility in this collection! I really appreciated that she had the opportunity to add extended sizing to her collection and she said YES. We need more Blair’s in the fashion world!

I love mixing prints and pairing unexpected colors together because it adds interest, and it also elevates your look.

WHAT I WORE // CAMO + PLAID TRENCH

Layering and mixing patterns is my JAM, you know this! I really don't like playing by the rules... so here I am, throwing on a plaid trench coat over a camo shirt jacket and calling it a day. If you've been following along with my life updates, than you probably know I've been working a little bit...

PLUS SIZE & PREGNANT // A little fringe goes a long way...

Hi, me again. Super huge preggo lady just trying to survive in this Summer heat! How do I survive and still feel like I look cute? One word: Dresses. Easy ones you can throw on and go - and look like you're so much more put together than you actually are. ;)

HOW TO SURVIVE THE SUMMER WITHOUT A THIGH GAP (VIDEO)

Ok, ladies. This might be a topic that makes you uncomfortable but I’m here to tell you that it’s a problem WE ALL HAVE. Well, most of us.

It’s Summer. For most of us, it’s hot as balls. Sorry, but, I really can’t think of a better way to explain it. Literally the other day I was standing outside and could feel streams of sweat dripping down the back of my leg. Beautiful.

PLUS SIZE & PREGNANT // a little birdie told me...

... that you DON'T have to spend a fortune on maternity clothing when you're pregnant! I've made it my mission this pregnancy to find non-maternity clothes that work WITH or WITHOUT a bump. Here's my latest find from the new Draper James drop with Eloquii.

PLUS SIZE & PREGNANT // You Can Still Wear Color! feat. MODCLOTH

I love black. Love it. Love how it looks on my body! But here's the thing, we can't wear black all the time. Seriously, we can't. I'm telling you NO!

And also, this is not a maternity dress. HOW COOL is it that you don’t actually have to buy maternity clothes when you’re pregnant?! At least not yet… ;)

ST. AUGUSTINE: WHAT WE WORE

Last week, we went on a super fun girls trip to St. Augustine and had a blast! I got so many questions from my insta stories about what swimsuits, sunglasses, outfits, and shoes we were wearing on this trip! I thought it would be good to put it all in one spot for you here!

PLUS SIZE & PREGNANT // A SERIES, first look featuring DRAPER JAMES

Think you have to buy MATERNITY CLOTHES when you’re pregnant?! Think again. I am so excited to share with you guys a new series I'm starting while I'm pregnant. I’m challenging myself to do this with only non-maternity clothes… as long as I can! Dressing for your changing body, no matter WHAT size you are is difficult. I just happen to be plus size, and I want to share this journey with you all.

READY FOR SPRING WITH DRAPER JAMES x ELOQUII

I am so excited to be part of this exciting launch with Draper James and one of my favorite clothing brands, Eloquii. Draper James is Reese Witherspoon's brand, and I remember being a little bummed that they didn't carry my size when I popped in the Atlanta store. But now... that's all changing!

CURRENTLY WEARING: POPS OF COLOR + NEUTRALS

I am a tried and true GRAY/BLACK/WHITE LOVER, but I've always gravitated towards fun colors. My favorite way to do this is to mix it up with neutrals. Below is a fun Spring look I styled with Gwynnie Bee.

SPRING STAPLES WITH LANE BRYANT: PART TWO

The power of a classic, crisp, white button front shirt is underrated. The thing that has always turned me off about them, however, is that they aren't interesting enough for me. Also, I want something comfortable I can move in. With my shape, I often have to size two sizes up to get something that fits, but then it looks too boxy.

PEPLUM TOPS // NEUTRALS // GOOD JEANS

I absolutely love what a good peplum top can do for any body type! Here's a simple look I threw together with a few of my favorite pieces. First things first: Let's talk denim.
