that girl is in the garden.

Image
I'm a little biased but I like to think that we have the BEST tomatoes in our garden! Plus, they really are that red and shiny, no photoshop (which I am not very good at for the record anyways). What goes better than clogs & gardening, I ask you! I got these in the mail today and they never go on sale in this color and heel height, they are the very low closed toe bow tie from Sven . They are $185 right now which isn't super crazy but I am a class A bargain hunter so when I saw them on Poshmark for much lower and with the opportunity to negotiate, I was all in! I never tried any of their low styles so I was a little nervous the fit wouldn't be right but the 38 was perfect! I am usually a 39 in mid and high heels or 8.5 US in heels and boots. I am almost always an 8 in flat shoes so thank goodness, these Sven 38s fit like they were custom made for me! They are also SOOOOO neutral and beautifully 'basic' that I feel like I can wear them with all kind of craz...

strawberry fields forever (also kitty clogs review!).

Image
 I got this realistic printed strawberry blouse at Anthropologie (you can buy one HERE ) over the weekend, so this is my day 2 of my four days of styling my new clearance items (summer wardrobe refresh)! It didn't look like much on the hanger, honestly, it looked a bit silly and too quirky but when I tried it on, I definitely fell in love with it! I'm a little wary of the super sheer material so I paired it with a Victoria's Secret red tank top that I folded the straps down with just for personal modesty assurance. My clogs I got a while ago, on Poshmark for....wait for it....$30! Kitty Clogs had been on my radar for a while because I really loved their instagram and the way they styled their clogs. I also liked t he founder's interview very much that I read . I love supporting small Women-owned business. Also, obviously, I am a clog enthusiast so naturally, I was intrigued to try as many different brands as possible. Today, I finally got around to taking these G...

father's day.

Image
 I spent the morning and most of the afternoon dogsitting and took a quick break between watching the dog snoozfest (see below) and reading ' A Tale Dark and Grimm " to take some outfit photos featuring my new clearance anthropologie tee (I love it so much) and my new Lottas (I got them on eBay for only $35, I NEVER thought I would win the bid or get a pair that I really wanted so cheaply)! I ended up selling my Eric Michael green Nova clogs because they just weren't as comfortable as other clogs I have and the suede material just wasn't really my favorite. If you check out my Poshmark closet, I have TONS of new items coming this week!   I'm wearing: tee-anthropologie, hat-old, target, jeans-thrifted 'nanette lapore broadway', 'bag-kate spade, clogs-lotta from stockholm  My parents' backyard is really pretty and they have some really nice flowers this time of year! Fun Fact: my tripod for these was a bottle of Vegetable O...

fresh bouquet.

Image
I've been having a tough week with my symptoms and going through the process of waiting for my new medication to be approved & set up (you know how insurance and paperwork goes sometimes) so it was a special surprise when my husband brought home this gorgeous bouquet for me after doing a quick supermarket run to get eggs and milk for brunch. I love them so much. They are SO pretty, I definitely had bees sniffing around when I was taking photos. I've been dreaming of Sunflowers all Spring but apparently, March is the time to plant them so I will definitely plan for them next March! I made a pretty sweet brunch also--omelettes with cheese, peppers, and broccoli with rosemary air-fried fries and my husband grilled up some breakfast sausage and made fresh squeezed grapefruit juice from our tree! (it's in a lot of my outfit pics, if you are wondering but not this particular one!) I haven't been feeling too great so I wore a really basic casual weekend outfit of a go-t...

golden kitty

 I played off the gold accents on my amazing kitty purse by wearing my equally awesome Loeffler Randall X Sven Clogs . These are one of my favorite pairs of clogs in my whole collection, I just wish the left back heel wasn't stiffer than the right, it isn't broken in yet but hopefully if I wear them a few more times, it will soften! I might put an insert in, not sure yet. They are just so ballerina, clog princess though, I love them so much and they fit my foot perfectly too! So this dress is from the Anthropologie summer clearance sale two years ago, couldn't find it ANYWHERE online or the style name or anything but after putting it in the hamper tonight, I realized suddenly that it has the tiniest belt loops on each hip! I guess it had a string belt that it never came with! I am considering trying out some extra shoelaces and seeing what it looks like but honestly I really enjoy how smocky and loose it is because it is SO comfortable. My husband admittedly says it look...
