Published on November 10, 2016 by blonde rosieLeave a comment

I feel like all of the stores are only selling clothes in black, grey, red and green. In the winter months, my closet turns shades of black, grey and white. Not as much fun as my bright and colorful summer wardrobe. I have been making an effort to be colorful at work. I wore this outfit a few days ago and I cannot wait to wear it again!

Keep scrolling to see the outfit details and my current favorite pink clothes at the moment!

After almost a week of bed rest after surgery, I was excited to get back to work! You would think that laying in bed watching Netflix all day would be fun, but after day 3 I was kind of bored. The weather over night turned to fall. We had some rare warm days leading up to November, but now I can finally start wearing my sweaters to work.

For my first day back at work I wanted to wear something comfortable. I worked a shift at J. Crew and had multiple people buy my outfit because they liked it so much. I love that not much thought has to go into a look like this, but with the right accessories it looks chic and work appropriate.

Last Minute Halloween Costume

Published on October 30, 2016 by blonde rosieLeave a comment

This year for Halloween I am stuck in bed after surgery, so I thought I would share last years last minute Halloween costume on the blog. Last year, it was freezing outside and I did not want to be one of those girls who showed up with very little clothing on at a bar on Halloween.

With clothing I had in my closet and a printed out Starbucks logo taped to my stomach, I went as a cup of Starbucks coffee. I used a white tee shirt, white skirt, brown leggings and a brown infinity scarf wrapped around my stomach. My “purse” for the evening was a bag from Starbucks and a drank beer out of a Starbucks that evening. I was really committed to the theme! Super easy, super affordable and even warmer!

I hope everyone is having a fun Halloween this year! I will be in my bed eating a Costco sized bag of candy by myself binge watching Friends on Netflix !

blanket scarves and brunch

Published on October 25, 2016October 26, 2016 by blonde rosieLeave a comment

I love Sunday Brunch and lately I have been doing a lot of brunching the last few weeks! Now that I am back to work, I realize how valuable time off is. I feel tired all of the time, but I’d rather drag my butt out of bed and enjoy the day instead of sleep through the day when I get a day off of work. This past Sunday was my only day off that week since I’m working two part jobs and trying to get as many hours as I can at each job. I was planning to sleep late, but last minute we had some family driving through our state so we made plans for Sunday brunch. I woke up at 8am on a Sunday even though I wanted to roll over and go back to bed! I wanted to look cute for family and enjoy a cup of coffee on the front porch to get me started for the day so waking up earlier than planned was a must. We decided to go to McCloones in Asbury Park for brunch because it’s right on the ocean and our family is from Ohio so they don’t see the beach often.

pumpkin patch & plaid

All I have wanted to do this October was to buy a mum (or two!) and get some pumpkins! I feel like I was always busy and then I went on vacation, so I never had the time. I didn’t want to pick up my pumpkins at Wegmans during my weekly shop, I wanted to make the drive to West Jersey to where the farms are. On Monday, I started the first day at my new job and got out early after some training. I called my parents and I dragged them out of the house and to the pumpkin patch! I am so happy to cross off an item on my fall bucket list! It was 80 degrees today, so it did not really feel like fall, but I loved the fall festivities!

Keep scrolling to the bottom to see what plaids and fall shirts I am obsessed with lately!

Still five years old at the pumpkin patch!

Just waiting for my pumpkin to turn into Cinderella’s carriage and my prince to come.

Wait… I can only pick one pumpkin???

Okay, so these pumpkins were a lot heavier than they looked!

The shirt I am wearing is old from L.A. Hearts at Pacsun and the jeans are Bullhead. My boots are from Nordstrom and are less than $100! Check out THIS POST for more information about them. I have some of my favorite fall shirts below! I am obsessed with the Vineyard Vines shirt and hope to see it in my closet soon!

What are some fall activities you have been up to so far??

FYI

J.Crew Factory has a major sale going on right now and all of their flannel shirts are on major sale, up to 40% off! So go online or in store and buy them in every pattern because you do not want to miss this deal. I am in love with every pattern they have this season and my closet will be filled with them shortly 🙂
