Crisp and Fresh

Crisp and fresh, just like the start to every Spring! I love this spring transition look, it's perfect for the office on a Friday. The jacket is a classic that will never go out of style and you know me and my florals in the spring and summer, I can't get enough!!! Use BRANDOM when you check out at Israelle's Upscale Consignment to let them know where you heard about them first! Hope everyone had a wonderful Easter with their families! Mine was very peaceful and filled with family, couldn't ask for more!

 

Happy Spring!

Crop tops and minis, channeling my inner "Clueless." I adore this crisp, polished look. These Sam & Libby heels are from Target and are one of my most comfortable pairs of heels!  They are perfect for a busy work day when you are on your feet, oh and are under $40!! #TargetNeverFails This Gucci skirt (that goes with everything) and Kate Spade tote are great steals from Israelle's Upscale Consignment!!! The Kate Spade tote is sold out but there is a fabulous black Tory Burch tote still available! I can't get enough of Israelle's Upscale Consignment! You can consign your own items and shop all at the same place, so simple and easy! Why wouldn't we share our love for fashion by consigning!? P.s. The customer service is excellent, very professional and prompt (always a plus)!

 

 Be sure to type "BRANDOM" when you are checking out so the lovely Israelle knows where you heard it first!

 

Cheers to consigning for the love of fashion and having the best at the best price!

Lady Like Plaid

Plaid Shirt: NY & Co. : Similar || Bag || Jeans || Heels || Rings || Necklace: NY & Co. : Similar || Bangle

Happy Saturday Lovely Ladies!

I am loving this sunshine and this feminine twist on plaid. I mean you can never go wrong with pastel pink, navy and gray. These different textures of plaid and fringe are so fun too. Plaid is so versatile in the ways that it can be worn. I hope this gives you some fall fun inspo!

These past couple of weeks have been crazy busy but filled with love. I've attended both, bridal showers and weddings. One being my brother's wedding which I was honored to be in. I wore this little number to my one girlfriend's wedding and got to thinking about what my must haves are to carry in my clutch. It's not like my every day bag where I literally have my entire life. It's like survivor if I was stranded on a deserted island what would I take with me...ok maybe that's a little dramatic. But seriously, us gals can have a lot of stuff so I've narrowed it down to my top 5 maybe 10 things, I always pack in my clutch. So next time you are getting ready for a wedding or a date night here is your survival kit on what may just save your evening.

1. ID... I know you are thinking duh, but you wouldn't believe the stories

 I have about forgetting my ID.

2. Cash or Card, somehow I never forget this haha

3. Keys...a little trick I have is to have a quick latch on my keys where I only take the important ones.This leaves more room in my clutch/bag and prevents it from looking lumpy.

4. Lip Gloss and Chapstick...I like to have both.

5. Mascara...brighten up the eyes.

6. Tinted Powder...keep my face fresh.

7. Gum or Mints

8. Small Perfume Bottle

9. Bobbing Pins/Hair Tie

10. Safety Pin/Clear Nail Polish

If you there are any MUST HAVES that I missed that you always pack in your bag please share!
