PUFF SLEEVE DUPE ONLY $19 & COMES IN 6 COLORS + SHOP MY TARGET SUMMER FASHION FINDS & THE $750 AMAZON GIVEAWAY CONTINUES

Have you ever found a piece you loved so much you just had to get it in multiple colors? The puff-sleeve top I’m sharing today is seriously that good! It’s a dupe by one of my favorite designers Ulla Johnson whose designer pieces come close to $1000! She does amazing designs that can also be found here & here as well (with some great sale pieces going on right now too)! However, there’s nothing quite as inexpensive as the dupe I’m featuring here today! It costs’s a mere $19 and comes in 6 colors. My top is a dupe of her puff sleeve tops & also found here. I know I’ll be wearing it on repeat, so I bought the white, black & rust colors. Also, how perfect would the white be with red shorts or blue jeans for the 4th of July?!

As many of you know, Target has been partnering with some famous designers lately, including Cushnie, LoveShackFancy, and Lisa Marie Fernandez! Three of my personal faves. Their fashion game has always been good, but right now it’s amazing and totally on-point with summer 2020 fashion trends.

NEUTRAL ACCESSORIES | FIND OUT WHY YOU NEED THEM NOW

NEUTRAL ACCESSORIES | FIND OUT WHY YOU NEED THEM NOW + THE $750 AMAZON GIVEAWAY BEGINS

Take your look from ordinary to modern mainstream by adding a few neutral accessories to your collection. Neutral accessories provide longevity, timelessness, and versatility to any outfit! I highly recommend mixing and matching them like I’ve featured here today with a brown suede belt, a white bag, and a transparent black heel guaranteed to elongate your leg. I personally have a long torso and shorter legs, so I need all the help I can get!

A gorgeous nude sandal versus black seems to be my go-to as you can see in my recent post HERE. Would you have ever thought you could mix all three accessories together without a problem? I love the fact that they can be worn time and time again without anyone realizing it’s the same belt, handbag or shoe from the day or week before. That’s the true beauty of a complimentary, neutral shade.

We took this past week as a family to listen, learn, read, reflect and discuss. It starts with you, it starts with me, it starts at home. I am and will forever be evolving and changing. We all are. We all can and should seek to do better.

What happened to George Floyd (and Breonna Taylor & Ahmaud Arbery and countless others) was wrong. And people should be held accountable for their actions. Any person who believes Matthew 22: “Thou shalt love thy neighbor as thyself” should agree. We are all created equally by Christ – it’s as simple as that.

HOW TO STYLE YOUR HOODIE FROM HOME & BEYOND | FROM COMFY WFH TO STYLISH & CHIC

HOW TO STYLE YOUR HOODIE FROM HOME & BEYOND | FROM COMFY WFH TO STYLISH & CHIC

No one ever says, “I have too many sweatshirts and sweatpants” especially nowadays under all these WFH circumstances. This hoodie set is one of my favorites because it shows you how you can mix high and low end items and still look super chic. Plus if done right no one will ever know the difference. And did I mention that this one is by of my very favorite designers right now too?

Feel free to dress it up with denim and a blazer or down like I’m featuring today with some of my favorite slippers. I’m also sharing a high and a low slipper in two different colors that I own and love as well. I’ve been searching for a very long time for an uber, chic hoodie to wear underneath an oversized black blazer or denim/leather jacket, and this one is simply perfect.

I must admit, the contrasting black drawstrings and understated ANINE BING graphic at the chest completely sealed the deal for me! I even found an incredible hoodie dupe with these same features that I’ve linked as well. Just scroll thru my shop the post below…

TIE DYE THAT’S TO DIE FOR | SHOP THE TIE DYE BOUTIQUE

{FROM ATHLEISURE WEAR & ACCESSORIES TO STUNNING DRESSES, BLOUSES, SWEATERS & SWIMSUITS TOO}

Many of the 2020 spring and summer fashion trends predicted months ago at Paris and Milan Fashion Week sadly never got to see the light of day. Lots of changes have taken place because of the pandemic. However, if there’s one trend that’s still shining bright despite stay at home orders and social distancing, it’s the tie dye obsession from the 70s. TIE DYE THAT’S TO DIE FOR seems to be the trend for spring and summer 2020.

I’ll be the first to admit – at first I wasn’t so sure I was on board with this comeback trend. However, I’ve started to love it lately! With so many different brands sharing their latest styles of tie dye. From the elite designers to the mainstream ready-to-wear brands, it’s definitely back and more popular than ever! Plus, it’s now designed for all ages and lifestyles too, not just for teens like it once was. These latest designs include the whole spectrum: from athleisure wear & accessories to stunning dresses, blouses, sweaters and swimsuits too! Look out Studio 54 because if there’s one trend 2020 will no doubt be known for (besides masks) it’s tie dye!

Be sure to scroll all the way down for my TIE DYE BOUTIQUE where I’ve spent countless hours rounding up my fabulous favorites for you to purchase right now (for anyone who wants to skip right over the messy tie dying process and go straight to wearing these latest spring looks)…

FIND OUT WHY FLARES FLATTER EVERYONE | BECAUSE THEY’RE BACK & HERE TO STAY

FIND OUT WHY FLARES FLATTER EVERYONE | BECAUSE THEY’RE BACK & HERE TO STAY

Hi, friends I hope you’re all doing well under the circumstances. I know things aren’t going as any of us had planned right about now. But I’ve heard from a lot of you that having a little distraction to take your mind off things can be nice. So with that in mind, I wanted to share with you my regularly scheduled spring edit’s. Once social distancing is behind us, I know we’ll all be wearing a flattering flare jeans look just about everywhere. And mine fit fabulous and are 30% OFF right now too!

Because there’s no doubt flares are officially back! And will continue to hold strong in the fashion game throughout 2020 and beyond. They’re just that good and always oh so flattering! Whether it’s a casual, errand- running day or a night on the town, a flattering flare jeans look is fitting for the occasion. Pair flares with a graphic tee and sneakers or a dressy top and heels and you’re good to go!

Not only have flare jeans been a consistent trend throughout the years, they are also extremely flattering on every body shape. All the more reason to love them! First, flares are slim fitting at the waist, thighs and knees then begin to flare out toward the ankle causing an elongated leg illusion. This makes the body appear taller and slimmer too. Also, flares are super waist accentuating making the hips look smaller as well. Isn’t that all we women want after all? Longer, thinner legs and a slimmer waist, why yes! That’s why I’ve decided to share my flattering flare jeans look with each of you today. Keep scrolling for a flare denim look you won’t want to miss…

12 WAYS TO COMBAT CORONAVIRUS + SUPPLEMENTS, FOODS, CHARITIES TO SUPPORT & MUCH MORE 

12 WAYS TO COMBAT CORONAVIRUS + SUPPLEMENTS, FOODS, CHARITIES TO SUPPORT & MUCH MORE

Today I’m sharing 12 Ways To Combat Coronavirus + Supplements, Foods, Charities To Support & Much More. The best time to build up your immune system is way before you actually need it. And with over 70% of your immune system living in your gut, whether you want to believe it or not every meal plays a vital role in keeping you healthy or not.

I for one know I do not eat near enough nutrients, fruits and vegetables in my diet as I should. Yes I still drink my mBreakfast Shake every morning but that’s just not enough. You are supposed to have 5 to 9 servings of fruits and veggies a day. So I have to supplement for many of the things that I am lacking.

But I have been trying my best to incorporate more plant-based foods in my diet and less meat. They are rich in antioxidants and fiber plus work to keep your immune system strong. One way I’ve been doing this is by adding the Sakara At Home Plant-Rich Ready-To-Eat Meals to my Diet. And use My Personal Discount CODE: ‘XOSSS’ – to receive 20% off the SAKARA SITE! 

They deliver nationwide and this is my fourth week eating them and I just love them! And my daughters and husband do as well. Head to the bottom of this post for a special collaboration offer between Sakara & my favorite beauty expert Dr. Barbara Sturm (you will receive $250 worth of 4 of her top products if you participate)!

CULT FAVORITE FAUX LEATHER LEGGINGS FOR LESS THAN $100 | GIVE YOU A FLAT GUT PLUS A GREAT BUTT + THE $600 NORDSTROM GIVEAWAY BEGINS & THE $800 PAYPAL CASH OR AMAZON GIVEAWAY CONTINUES 

These Cult Favorite Faux Leather Leggings for less than $100 have a slightly slick finish that definitely adds an extra edge. But most importantly the wide waistband makes for a very flattering silhouette that doesn’t roll down on you and gives you a flat gut and a great butt! That now comes in 5 different versions all cooler than the next (original, moto, camo, quilted & a hip zip). You will love the subtle control top and sleek look of leather that makes for a super comfortable pair of Stunning Spanx leggings.

I wanted to see what all the hype was about and I must say they are worth every penny and super slimming and flattering. And that is a lot coming from me because after my pregnancies I said I’d never wear leggings again if I wasn’t working out. And I love these and can’t stop wearing them plus my girls keep stealing them from me as well. You might also remember when I recently wore these same Spanx leggings here as well.
