A Picnic on the Boat with Muddy Boot Wine

Happy Wine Wednesday loves! The weather here has been G O R G E O U S lately (finally!!), and I've been soaking up the sun and fresh air every chance I get. Summer is the perfect time to get your friends together and plan a picnic in the park, on a boat, or anywhere that your heart desires in the moment, as long as you're outside. Don't forget the essentials: lots of wine, an unspeakable amount of yummy cheese (especially if you're in the great state of Wisconsin), and in this case, doughnuts. I truly think wine and doughnuts could be the next big food pairing trend; not only is it surprisingly good (make sure you're pairing complementary flavors), but it makes drinking wine before 5pm on Saturday more acceptable. Ok, it may have been before 1pm, but it was Saturday, and who's keeping track?! If you're looking for a good, inexpensive wine to take with you on all of your summer adventures, make sure to check out Muddy Boot Wine! Just go to Broncowine.com to find a retailer in your area!

Ruffle Details

Happy Wednesday loves! Only three more days until the weekend - who else is counting down with me?!  I don't know about you guys, but I'm obsessed with anything that has ruffles on it lately, and this top was a must buy as soon as I set my eyes on it. I love how the cutout at the shoulder is balanced out by adding ruffles at the lower part of the other sleeve, making an "asymmetrical, but not" kind of look. And how cute is the lilac piping at the edge of the ruffles?? This top runs a little more on the cropped side though, so make sure to wear with a high-waisted skirt or jeans!

I also can't forget about this pair of denim - did you guys read my post last week? I talked about my new favorite brand of denim, and how I had found three perfect pairs of jeans in two months. Well, this is one of those pairs! I simply can't give enough praise to William Rast denim. It has just the right amount of stretch (holds you in, but doesn't show too much like most jeggings), is comfortable to wear all day long no matter what you're doing, and is always on trend with just the right amount of details. I'm loving the three button fly and released hem on this pair! For reference, I'm wearing a size 28 (equates to a size 6), so buy true to size. Happy shopping loves! xoxo

New Sunnies + My Favorite Jeans

Hi loves! Happy Wednesday! I hope everyone's week started out on the right foot. I know mine did (even with a few obstacles), thanks to these floral sunnies! Seriously, how cute are these?? I was looking for a pair of round sunglasses (LOVE my Ray-Bans but I wanted to change it up for a minute), and I stumbled upon these - it was love at first sight. I mean, how can someone have anything even close to a bad day when they have daisies on their sunglasses? Daisies + tortoise shell equals perfection in my book when it comes to finding that unique, stand-out from the crowd pair of sunnies.

AND, I wanted to share my new favorite jeans with you guys. You can't go wrong with a pair of black, destructed denim, and the released hem takes this pair to the next level. This number from William Rast fits like a glove, and makes me feel so good about myself every time I put them on! With the high rise cut and almost jegging-like feel, they are a great slimming skinny jean to add to your closet. My mom ended up buying a pair too because I couldn't stop raving about them! I've grabbed three pairs of William Rast jeans in the past two months, and I'm not looking back. I will gladly continue to fuel this obsession with zero guilt - how often can a girl say that she finds the perfect pair of jeans?? (Answer: three times in two months). Do you have any denim brands that you swear by? Leave a comment below! Happy shopping loves! xoxo
