Happy Fri-yay, friends! I’m so excited to be debuting a new quarterly series this week: Ageless Style. In this series we’ll feature a fantastic and diverse group of bloggers all styling a similar wardrobe staple or seasonal trend in a variety of ways. Our first theme is Florals. Come meet the girls representing each decade and check out all of the fantastic looks!
Some of these ladies I’ve met in real life, others are virtual friends but what they all have in common is their great sense of style, kindness and a desire to support other women. I feel so lucky to have them in my life! Please check out their blogs and Instagram accounts and find some new faces to follow!
Woo-hoo, for many of us it’s spring break time and you know what that means – resort wear! This year we spent our winter break in Belize. It’s a super-casual place so I left my resort dresses at home and focused on more casual pieces for this low-key getaway.
Blogger Confession:The sun sets early in Belize and we were traveling with friends, having WAY too much fun during the day. Consequently, no time for photos, so recreated my looks back at home. In a few weeks I’ll be sharing our trip experiences and you can expect some jungle and beach scenery then!

While my small wardrobe is centered around mix and match neutrals, every once in a while I crave a bit more color, pattern or BOTH! It can be just the thing to pull you out of the doldrums caused by a cold, grey winter. The red-pink-black palette of this leopard top seemed like a perfect fit for a Valentine Date Night look.

Valentine Date Night Look
You may recognize the top I’m wearing from this Valentine Shop post. I ended up ordering it as I was really drawn to both the color combination and the leopard pattern. The top is a much thicker fabric than you would initially suspect! Almost like a ponte knit with a thin poly lining on the interior. Initially I thought this piece would transition nicely into Spring/Summer by pairing it with a walking short, but after getting it, I’ve realized it’s probably too heavy for hotter days.
The top pictured is a size small. Because I have a small chest, I think I could have gone down into an XS and may have had fewer issues with the v-neckline peeking open. The trousers are one of my favorite basics – the Banana Republic Sloan Ankle pant. A black or medium-blue jean would also work great with this top. The shoes are staple from my special occasion capsule. The suede gives them a dressier appearance and I typically turn toward this shoe for nicer events when it’s too cold to wear a sandal.
