Hello! My mom, sister, and niece are all in town visiting from Ohio. My niece, Lacey, is 3 years old and, let me tell ya, she is such a cutie. Despite the fact that she wakes up with the sun (seriously) and, in turn, wakes the whole house up with her, it's been super fun hanging out with her. There's nothing like a toddler to make ya laugh!

Do you wear sneakers a lot? Personally, I don't wear tennis shoes very often myself; however, I have a feeling I'll be wearing outfits like this one on repeat while Lacey is here. She keeps ya on your toes!

Pep[lum] in my Step[lum]: Tank + Skinny Jeans + Stacked Heels + Bytten for Fitbit Flex

Happiest of Tuesdays, my party people! Who's ready to RAGE on day 2 of this work week?! Just kidding. I am already so exhausted from this week -- and I still have quite a bit of it left... Ah, well. That's the thug life, I suppose. #IDidntChooseTheThugLifeTheThugLifeChoseMe

Gold plastic Fitbit accessory: c/o Bytten

I have not taken off this accessory for the Fitbit Flex from Bytten since the day it arrived. I love being able to track my steps (and sleep) each day; however, the black rubber Fitbit band isn't exactly the most stylish. That's why I am loving these accessories, because now my Fitbit looks less like a tracker - and more like an actual bracelet. I highly recommend picking the two pack that is sold at Target!
(PS: Bytten also offers a premium collection if you are looking to upgrade your Fitbit Flex or Charge even more!)

Tomorrow is "hump day" as us real life adults thugs call it. This day is so very welcomed in my heart. I shall celebrate it by working 8 hours, coming home and eating the equivalent of four dinners in one sitting, and falling asleep to the sweet hum of Netflix in the background. Who's jelly? (Or, more appropriately, perhaps, who else will be doing this exact same thing upon their own arrival home as their simultaneous mid-week exhaustion and pre-excitement for the weekend sets in? Don't be ashamed - we are in this adult thug life together!)

Destination Unknown: Jacket + Graphic Tank + Skinny Jeans + Espadrille Wedges

Hello! If you have been reading this blog for a while now, you may have caught on to something: I am a lover of all Phoenix seasons... except for summer. Summer is the desert means 100+ degree temperatures for four months straight, which never gets more bearable -- despite what people may tell you (do not trust anyone who says otherwise). You can never really guess when the first day of triple-digit temps will arrive; therefore, chilly spring days are something to revel in and celebrate. Today is one of those days. I'm writing this with the windows open and wrapped up in a blanket, which is making me feel all the feels of coziness. It's Heaven on Earth.

I can't just rag on Phoenix's hotter days, though. Because there are some good things about higher temperatures, such as the return of open-toed shoes and espadrilles. They just scream "85 degrees," right?! What's your favorite item of clothing that you just can't wait to bust out on March 20th each year?

Downright Denim: Jean Jacket + Dress + Wedges + Hat

Happy weekend! What are you up to for the best two days of the week? My plans for these glorious 48 hours will involve a lot of heavy "adult-ing." I'm thinking a trip downtown to stroll around the farmer's market (iced coffee in hand, of course) is in order, immediately followed by a work out and extreme cleaning of my extended closet our office. Maybe if I am feeling ca-razy I'll catch a movie -- but obviously not a late one, because I'm sure I'll tire early... Basically what I'm saying is that I am one big ball of fun. [No one ever said growing up is a blast, amirite?] (Just kidding. I actually live for these mellow weekends. Stop judging me.)

I've always felt like I am the most immature old soul. Isn't that the oddest combination? But, honestly, I have the sense of humor of a 15 year old boy, yet I've never been the type of person who enjoys going to crowded bars and yelling over people to have a conversation. Is there anyone else out there like me? ... Hello? ... Anyone? Anyone else... at all? ...... HELLOOOOOO????

Print Shop: Floral Jacket + Tank + Skinny Jeans + Boots

Hey there, hi there! Is it springtime-y where you live yet? We've been having temps all the way up to the 90s already (which was the biggest bummer). Thankfully, though, this week it got a little cooler again - it was even down to the low 70s today! These are the days that remind me to crack the windows and doors open and take in the fresh air as much as possible (despite the guaranteed onset of allergies)... because in a few shorts weeks, we'll sadly be back to 100+ degrees, and our AC will be working overtime. #DesertLife

I feel like most people are either A) spring-obsessed or B) fall-lovers. Which category do you fall more under? For me personally, I lean towards the autumn obsession side of the spectrum; however, that is solely due to the fact that fall in Phoenix means beautiful months of winter weather are on the way, while spring signals oncoming triple-digit-death-level temperatures (AKA summer is near).
