It’s a bird, it’s a plane, it’s the Fashion Caped Crusader! This week, I’m dishing about one of the pieces that’s become a staple in my wardrobe this season.

Neutral colors have always been a staple in fall/winter fashion but that doesn’t mean your look has to be boring. Ditch the basic whites and creams this season. Instead, consider stepping up your look with a little hunter green and ginger spice. This week, I decided to throw it back a bit with a 70s-inspired outfit I like to call, “Neutral Spice.”

Happy Saturday! Recently I fell in love…not with a person but with three new pieces from Fashion to Figure and Long Tall Sally.

I remember thinking, ‘Why am I cursed with extra long legs?’ That’s when my mom took me to a place that would turn out to be a staple in my wardrobe from then on…

It’s my 31st birthday! Yay! As the saying goes, time is truly flying. I feel like it was just yesterday when I was celebrating my 30th birthday in an EPIC way.

Another year has passed and I dread to say…I’m 31. I’m officially IN my 30s (noooooo)! So much has happened in this year (both personally and professionally) and I truly realize that life isn’t promised.

In honor of this special occasion, I decided to make a list of 31 things I want to do on my 31st birthday (or within the next 12 months…lol). Here we go!!
