Mindful Shopping
And as much as I LOVE shopping, I’m here to tell you to hold off!! Unless it ABSOLUTELY flatters you and you aren’t just buying it because you’re in the mood, just wanting something new, etc.
I recently read that the average American throws away 81 LBS. of clothing each year… that’s WILD! And if you’re not tossing, then those unwanted pieces may just be taking up great real estate in your closet/drawers.
Before you hit that GREAT SALE, mindful shopping
This is just a friendly note to challenge you to buy what looks best on you. If there is a new style, color, print you’d like to try that you aren’t sure about, then a sale may be your way to go!
Consider me the stylist bug in your ear really making you think before your next purchase :o)
And I’ve been a victim of many sales, but working on it and wanting to help you out as well!!
Have a stylish, fun week.
Much Love to you,
Annie

A Summer Pant Alternative

The fabrics can be dressy or as soft as pajamas. Take your pick on what style you want for your lifestyle. Fit for joggers can be tricky if you don’t have long legs, but it’s just a matter of brand (& if they come in petite). They can make you look short if there is too much fabric at the ankle, so opt for something that hit right at the ankle bone or a few inches above.
It’s fun to try a new fit. A fit that is not clinging to your legs in the summer weather is an added bonus!
As always, reach out if you have any questions at all.
Enjoy the rest of the week!!
Stylishly Yours,
Annie

Jeans Jeans Jeans….
I love when the questions come in on “what’s the best this? Or “who makes the best that?” So here were my latest questions on great jeans I would recommend.
A good denim can change the way we feel & is such a staple to have for those casual days or everyday!
Mid and high rise are pretty spectacular because they elongate everyone’s leg – no matter your height/leg length. I truly believe that having a jean hit right about the ankle helps create the length as well (it was always thought that it shortens you, but not the case).
If you have a pair of jeans that fit SO well, take them to the tailor or cut them yourself to get you that great hem right above the ankle. And if you’re looking for a new pair of denim all together I’ve listed my favorites….From Target to Levis, to Anthropologie, to L’agence shop here:
Connect with me on Instagram for updates on how everything is going and I will let you know when any major changes and events are happening! I am so excited for my adventures and I couldn’t be more happy to have you guys along with me on the journey! You can find me HERE!
With much Love,

Finding what fits your body type can be tough. I struggled with what was best for my shape and how to dress my figure for years. When I discovered what truly works for my body, it was like the missing piece to my dressing puzzle. It is the best feeling to know what works for your beautiful self and I want to help with that! I have created a FREE Shop Your Shape Guide just for you.

Bringing You Some EXTRA LOVE
Happy Happy Valentine’s Day to YOU!!
This day brings some extra love that I always hope it carries out throughout the year. But come on, telling people you adore just how much they mean to you…doesn’t get any better! That being said… THANK YOU for being so incredible. It’s a joy to work with you. I truly mean it! Sending you so much L O V E today (& always).
I included a cheesy picture to show my this love :o)
Also! I’ve had inquiries on how I distress denim at my parties and I want to share the wealth through a video tutorial. I really hope it helps if you’ve been wanting to distress your own denim!
Click Here: HOW TO DISTRESS YOUR DENIM VIDEO
Painting, patches, and beads are also something so great to do with old denim. It’s therapeutic, anything goes (there is no right way), AND you will have denim that no one else will have – a total bonus!
Enjoy and have such a lovely day.
Much Love,
Annie
