sunny beach day wearing a red floral maxi with a bow tie on the back

i’ve always been a little dress obsessed and this beautiful floral print with an open back and tie is easily one of my favorite go-to’s. i’m wearing a size 2 with a little give. free people typically runs oversized, but i would say this number is TTS. the size 0 fit snug, but i always opt for a looser fit, so snagged a size 2. with the tie back, you can adjust the size you get to fit you accordingly, so if you’re between sizes and like a snug fit, go down. if you like a looser style, like i do, go up a size.

the best news of all, this stunner is 40% off but sizes are going fast! i have it linked here from multiple retailers to make it easier to find a size that best fits you!

back on the home front, david and i are officially back and living stateside and it has been amazing! we may have been running at 150mph the last couple of weeks, but there is truly no place like home.

best of all we’re receiving our ‘home goods’ shipment today. in army lingo, that means all of our belongings have made their way across the ocean and have officially landed in texas! since texas is our home for just the summer [announcement for our big move this fall coming soon] it’s all going straight to storage for now!

shop the look

one thing every closet can never have too many of, is the iconic little black dress.  it’s a versatile piece that can transform from classic to glam, making it perfect for all occasions.

add a fun sparkle with your accessories and a bold lip for an all out glam look. or opt for a statement shoe [like this one]. it will add a fun change to your look. if it’s cold out, get creative with your jackets! make your little black dress pop with a daring leopard print. or perhaps go for a more classic blazer.

holiday shopping, gift guide for him

  1. fit bit | i purchased one of these for david last year and he still wears it every single day! there are some newer ones out that look SO COOL, but there are a variety all in different price ranges to choose from as well.

2. wireless bose ear buds | this is another david approved gift. he actually asked for these specifically, and i borrow them whenever i can. these are great for the active guy! running without a headphone cord bouncing on your neck makes the run so much more enjoyable!

3. google home | the thing you never knew you needed! it’s a fun gadget and for those that grew up with disney’s movie, smart house, you’ll appreciate it that much more!

4. grill set | we registered for these and they’re a huge hit. this is a perfect gift for the grill master!
