Hi babes!! HAPPY FRIDAY!! Andddd Happy Cinco de Mayo! Woohoo! That certainly makes for a great Friday if you ask me! If you follow me on Instagram, you know I did not have a great 4th of May, so here’s hoping that the 5th is better! 😉 What are your plans for Cinco de Mayo? This morning, I’m off to the movies with my firsties, so this post is going to be short and sweet.

I had to share this adorable dress with all of you though. It is seriously the perfect dress for Summer! It’s light weight, NOT see-through, black (hello, flattering angles), off the shoulder, and has ruffles. Are you convinced that you need it yet? I’ve already decided it’s a Summer staple for me. It’s only $44 and still available in all sizes. Plus, you can use the code ‘savilla15’ to save 15% throughout the month of May. If you haven’t already checked out RaeLynn’s Boutique, you definitely need to. They have the cutest pieces, and all at really great prices. It’s one of my favs! Also, dying over these heels. I love a good neutral heel, and the laser cut detailing on these just reeled me right in. Plus, they don’t hurt my feet.. win-win!

Like I said, short and sweet. Have a great Friday!

Hey babes! How has your weekend been? If you’ve been following along over on my Instagram, you know that Adam has been laying hardwood in our living room *YAY* and I’ve been shopping.. ha! I can’t wait to show you our living room before & afters. But until then, I wanted to share this Summery look from yesterday with you all.

Make Me Chic sent me this dress, and I just love the cold shoulder and ruffle details. However… it’s sold out. 🙁 I did link some similar cold shoulder dresses and green dresses on their site, but I promise to keep an eye out for this restock. As soon as it’s restocked, I’ll share over on my Instagram account, so follow me there.

Only 20 more school days for me! That’s so crazy, and a tiny bit stressful since my amazing co-teacher and I are packing up our classrooms to move into a bigger room. We are so excited, but the packing has GOT to get rolling! Anyone have any moving tips for teachers? ha I’m looking forward to another full and busy week of teaching firsties, blogging, planning our Summer vacation (any ideas?!), and getting our living room back in order. Have a great week loves!

Hi babes! How has your week been so far? I can’t believe how quickly April has flown by! We have been so busy this month, and it has felt like such a whirlwind. I am definitely looking forward to relaxing a little over Summer break. What are your Summer plans?

Some of my favorite items to wear this time of year are rompers and jumpsuits. When I saw this gorgeous magenta jumpsuit from The Mint Julep Boutique, I knew I had to have it! The Mint Julep sent it to me, and I have been in love with it from the moment I opened the package. The magenta color is so bright and PERFECT for Spring and Summer! (Also, the shoes that I linked are an exact color match, so you totally need them too.)

I know some people shy away from wearing jumpsuits, but if you ever thought about giving them a try, you need to start with this one! I’ll be the first person to say that I have wider hips, but the way this jumpsuit is cut, with the belt cinching in at the waist, it made my curves look so much better than I imagined! I seriously may live in this jumpsuit all Summer, so I hope you don’t grow tired of seeing it. 😉 Also, if you sign up for The Mint Julep Boutique’s emails, you’ll receive $10 on your first order! Who doesn’t love a good deal like that?

Hope you all have a great rest of the week. Be sure to check back for more fun outfits later this week!

Happy Easter loves! I hope you have all had a wonderful day spent with family and reflecting on the reason we celebrate this precious day. I shared a little bit about this over on my Instagram if you want to go check it out.

On another note, I am so excited to feature my favorite local boutique with you all! Since it opened, The Willow Tree has been my go-to place for all things fashion. They carry so many of my favorite brands: Miss Me, Pandora, Free People, YETI, Vera Bradley, Brighton, OTBT, and most recently, Kendra Scott! Y’all know I’m Kendra Scott crazy, so when I found out that I could shop her pieces at my favorite boutique, I couldn’t have been more thrilled.

The Danielle earring is a great purchase for adding a pop of color to any outfit. I love wearing a simple top or dress and then going with a bold statement earring. This color is SO perfect for Summer that I just couldn’t resist them! I also loved pairing this color with red because I feel like it’s a little unexpected. Don’t be afraid to step outside of your comfort zone and wear something a little bright. Take it from someone who used to wear black, faded black, off black, light black, and dark black on a regular rotation. ha Color is so much more fun, and it’s the perfect time of year for adding a little pop to your wardrobe! Start with a bright earring like the Danielle style, and you’ll never go back!

The Willow Tree will soon have a shoppable website, but until then, you can follow them on Instagram @shopwillowtree and on Facebook @twtree. When you find something you love, and I know you will, you can call and place any orders over the phone to be shipped directly to you! If you’re local, they have locations in Boaz, Centre, Gadsden, and Jacksonville. Happy shopping!

Hi loves! What a crazy week it has been! I spent the first part of it sick with a stomach virus, and the last part of it catching up from the days I was sick. All in all, the week flew by! I shot this dress during my Spring Break and have been dying to share it with you! Make Me Chic sent it to me and I instantly fell in love. The material is pretty thick, but it is still a tiny bit see through, so you might want to wear a slip. I did not wear a slip, and thought it was fine, but if you plan to wear this to a special event, you might want one.Y’all know I’m obsessed with cold shoulders, ruffles, and bell sleeves, and this dress has them all! Plus it’s only $16, which makes it a total steal!

I also wanted to share a coupon code with you for my Daniel Wellington watch. This is the Classic Petite Melrose with a rose gold band. It’s their latest style, and also comes in a black face. I think it’s so fresh and pretty for Spring. If you decide you’ve got to have one, use the code SAVILLA for 15% off.

Hope you all enjoy your weekend!
