Blush Crush


Alas... that yucky part of winter when you are so sick of snow and are yearning for some sunshine and maybe some spring clothes...

I think every girl out there loves a change of season because it is a chance to update your wardrobe, pick up some great deals and decipher what the latest trends are and how you can incorporate them into your daily wardrobe. For me, it seems like each season I look not only for certain trends but gravitate towards a certain color trend as well. This past fall, I reverted back to classic navy and mustard, for winter I always love insane amounts of red and this spring my latest pastel favorite is... blush pink. Pastel hues of mint, blush and lilac were huge last year and are continuing strong again this year. I have always had a touch of girly in my wardrobe but I have actually been wearing less pink lately, why I am not too sure. However, blush pink can be a great way to bring a mature flair to an outfit as well as wear pink to work without feeling too much like a little girl.

Here are some of my picks! I can't wait to add pops of blush into my wardrobe! What color are you craving for spring?

My Christmas shopping picks

Holiday Shopping for girly girls
Stay warm, comfortable and cute with my picks for holiday shopping!

I wanted to post a mix of items that I both use and love and may be on my own wish list but are great gifts for any gal on your list. These items can be great for lots of girls you may know: Does she like to cook? Does she live somewhere cold and snowy? Is she a beauty product junkie or need a little extra pampering? All of these items are on trend and great for this time of year!
Living in Pennsylvania means I spend months being bundled up but with some of these items below you can look cute while staying warm! I have always loved red and there are a few items on this list that incorporate the new trendy buffalo plaid pattern. Red accessories like the red Hunter boots, Kate Spade bag buffalo plaid scarf make a great pop of color to any outfit! Don't forget to stop by your nearby outlet mall; designers like Kate Spade and Tory Burch have awesome items for the designer name for a huge percentage less than the retail versions.
Many of these items can be pricey but don't forget that I am a firm believer that you should never pay full price for anything! With this weekend being the beginning of holiday shopping with both Black Friday and Cyber Monday deals, I have seen all of these items on sale. Here is a quick breakdown of some of my latest deal finds: Old Navy 50 % off in store, Express 40% off in store, Sephora; check your mailbox I just got $15 off $50 starting Wednesday December 3. Kohl's; extra 15% plus earn Kohl's Cash for every $50 you spend.


Enjoy my picks fashion, home and beauty picks!

Fruity Favorites


Let me first start out this post by explaining that I am a huge fan of patterns! Don't get me wrong I love basic tees and jeans but over the years I love anything plaid, floral, houndstooth, Vera Bradley, nautical, you name it! I just think patterns amp up any outfit whether you are wearing jeans and a patterned top to the grocery store or pairing a pattern pant or skirt with basic top for work. Mixing it up with pattern and color makes you instantly look more pulled together!

To more accurately explain where my love of patterns came from. Even as a young girl I remember my mom dressing me in patterned shorts, overalls and dresses. When you're young being pattern crazy is adorable and it truly is funny how things come full circle as an adult! Seen here in my throwback picture I am about 5 wearing an early pattern: OshKosh strawberry print overalls! So needless to say I am glad fruit patterns are back! (Think I could rock this in a larger size now? ;)


My first love of this trend was the J. Crew factory Charley sweater in the tangerine print! Then Target had a "must have" pineapple button down blouse but I opted for the cardigan version to wear over dresses and such in the summer on a cool night.
I recently wore this over the Citron Old Navy eyelet dress for my brother's high school graduation and should have left the cardigan on because my shoulders got major sunburn! Ouch! (If you see any of these Old Navy dresses on sale at your store- get it ASAP because it is comfortable, flattering and can be dressed up or down!)

I paired it with a necklace from here but here is another option and Old Navy sandals (old).




The most recent pattern trend has me super excited because not only is it adorable but as a dietitian, I am able to express my love of fruit and fashion in one shot! Pineapple prints especially with other fruit prints as strong contenders such as lemons and oranges! Yellow and orange are always colors I wear in the summer and this is such a fun new print to create a conversation piece! (aka you will get adorable comments ladies!)


Would you wear this trend?
