50. Little Black Dress






Dress: Calvin Klein via Winners $32, Bracelets: Joe Fresh & Groop Dealz $10
Shoes: Shoemint via Pink Peonies giveaway, Clutch: Spring (old) Earrings: Claires $1


It is very suiting that the Little Black Dress should end up as 50 on the list. The LBD is one of the most iconic dresses; think Audrey Hepburn in Breakfast at Tiffanys. They are so simple yet so chic and timeless. When I saw this dress I absolutely had to have it and I waited until it went on sale, luckily someone didn't snatch it up before I did. I literally searched for three years for my perfect LBD, they can be tough to find but don't be discouraged. There are tons of options out there but it was a little difficult to find one long enough with sleeves, it wasn't nicknamed the Little Black Dress for no reason!

14. Black Tights









Jacket: Luii via Winners $35, Dress: Joe Fresh $15, Necklace: Joe Fresh $7, 
Tights: Winners $5, Shoes: Payless - gifted


Okay I went a little picture crazy for this post but it just felt so Audrey Hepburn and I was really excited about that. So, black tights. There are a few different kinds of black tights that really every lady should have; sheer, opaque, and some sort of pattern. I love these Fleur de Lis tights, they add a little oomph to any outfit but sometimes you just need a sheer or opaque pair of tights so it's important to have the basics just in case. Also I feel like you should definitely shop for a bargain because even the most expensive tights can get a run without any warning so don't spend too much on them. I try to find a quality pair on a good sale.

83. Sundress







Cardigan: Playhouse - gifted, Sundress: AEO $20.00, Necklace: Forever 21 $7.80, Belt: Charlotte Russe $1.50, Shoes: Payless $4.50


The Sundress. If I ever have a summer pregnancy I think I will live in Sundresses. They are basically the jeans and tee of dresses. They are super comfy and can easily be dressed up or down. This dress could be given a denim jacket and some boots and instantly become a cute casual outfit. Or you could add some sandals and long pendant necklace. Really, the possibilities are endless. I hunted for this white Sundress for three  years... yes, three years. So if it takes you some time to find the dress that is just right for you don't dismay, it's out there somewhere!

P.S. Again, a sundress in January just seemed a bit frightening for pictures!

1. The A-Line Dress






Dress: Joe Fresh $15, Neckace: gifted, Bangles: Forever 21 $4.80, Shoes: Payless $4.50

Project 100

So the first item every girl should own is the A-Line dress, it flatters all body types and because it is such a simple silhouette you can really play with it and have fun. I was shocked when I looked through my wardrobe that I only had one A-line dress! I guess I'll have to be on the hunt for some more.

Today I Adore Blessings.




Hey all. Well it's been awhile since I last posted. My brother is still with is and he seems to be making small steps of progress every day! This experience has been filled with ups and downs but it has been truly humbling to see all the blessings that have poured in. My brother is truly an exceptional individual and I think it is incredible that although is under heavy sedation his example is effecting people around the world. I wish my brother did not have to go through this trial but I really believe that good can come from any situation and I know that this will be no exception. Thank you everyone who has said a prayer on our behalf, I wish for you the greatest blessings.

These pictures are actually from the summer... let's hope they inspire mother nature to bring us some weather like that!

Tye-Dye Anyone?


Well we were forced to take pictures at high noon so this was the only picture that turned out alright. I got this dress for $3.99 at Forever 21! Basically they just gave it to me because it was so cheap :) Well I feel like everyone should have a little tye-dye in their wardrobe because it's fun and summery and it can be done right. Anyways I hope where ever you all are that it feels like summer there too and that you had a wonderful day!
