I’m pretty sure I have mentioned this once or twice but the Kitty Dress from Draper James is my favorite dress ever! And the magnolia print is my favorite DJ print – so naturally I had to have the Navy Magnolia Kitty Dress and I had to have fun styling it three ways.
One thing I love about Draper James is that we will see the same silhouette offered in new prints each season so when there is a piece I really love I can have it in multiple prints. Here’s a look back at my favorite pieces from the Fall 2021 collection which included some of my established favorite styles and new silhouettes.
Our 5th anniversary is this week so to celebrate I thought it would be fun to share some memories from our first five years. I’m a big believer in only looking back to see how far you’ve come so it’s always sweet to look back on our journey.
I am a bit of a clothes hoarder – I have over 135 dresses alone! But, I do try and make sure that new pieces can mix into my wardrobe with other pieces I already own. Skirts are great pieces for mixing and matching and I love how they can be dressed up or dressed down. If you’ve been following me for a while you know I’m a huge fan of Draper James. Draper James rarely does skirts (they are really known for their beautiful but approachable dresses and are a big part of my 135 collection, lol). So, when I saw a skirt in their signature magnolia print in fall colors I knew I had to have it and this would be a piece I would be able to frequently restyle.
I’m a big proponent of the “treat yo self” mantra. I think it’s great women have adopted this mindset to give themselves permission to make big purchases or go on fabulous trips but I think it’s important to remember that sometimes there’s not a lot of time or money to treat yourself with. What has become one of my favorite self care rituals – taking an hour long bubble bath in our soaker tub – wasn’t always accessible to me. And I don’t think “treat yo self” is something we should only do on occasion either. So, I’m sharing some small ways to treat yo self on a regular basis. They are affordable and accessible, because we all deserve a little treat more than once in a while.

I have been wearing Fabletics for years now so I’m always surprised when I talk to someone looking for work-out or athleisure wear and they haven’t tried it. Although intended…
I’m so excited to be pursuing motherhood but it’s been such a complicated emotional journey. I bought this dress a few months ago when I was feeling pretty low looking…
Spring is a time for new beginnings so what better time to celebrate by getting yourself a new dress, or two! I always get a new dress for Easter so while I have added lots of dresses to my wardrobe recently I’m focusing on ones that would make great Easter looks depending upon the look you’re going for. I even added a not dress look too for those that prefer something else. In addition to Easter these looks would also be perfect spring wedding guest looks depending upon the formality of the wedding.
My requirement for clothing is that it must be comfortable to wear at home but cute enough to wear outside the house. While we may be just saying good bye to winter soon enough the Memphis heat will be oppressive so I am a big fan of lightweight cotton clothing. The moment I saw this rainbow gingham dress from J.Crew I knew it was the kind of dress I could wear for spring and summer for years to come.
