SATURDAY STYLE

Lately I have been loving on simplistic looks with an edge to them. I know my fur vests may not be considered, "simplistic", but in actuality they are! To me a fur vest or a leather jacket are staple pieces that go with anything. At first they might seem out of your comfort zone, but once you get used to it you will realize how versatile and casual they actually can be!

Here are a couple Polyvore creations of mine with my latest inspirations: effortless edge and  comfortably chic!

My dream flare leg jeans to complete this look are by Paige Denim and come in at around $200. The pair in this set are from Windsor and are $29... get my drift? I'm sure the Paige Denim ones are FAB-ulous, but I seem to fall in and out of love with my jeans rather quickly and want the freedom to swap out without feeling the dent in my wallet. 

Anyways, today the hubs and I hit the movie theater and effortless and comfortably chic was my inspiration. 

Faux fur vest and V-neck long sleeve top both by Forever 21, skinny jeans by Lauren Conrad for Kohl's and black rider boots from Payless. Fab!

See! A fur vest can be worn for any occasion, big or small! It just depends on what you pair it with! 

Have a great Saturday! I am still laying low due to this terrible cold and potential snow heading our way! Eeek!

BOURBON BALL BOUNTY

Kentucky Derby must-have. Two words: Bourbon Balls. Nuff said.


Vanilla wafers, pecans, powdered sugar and cocoa.

If you don't like a little kick, these may not be for you... 

Corn syrup dissolved in the bourbon, then added to above ingredients.

Ball formation

And let the dunking begin

Bakers semi-sweet chocolate, melted

Let them cool off and then store in sealed container until ready to enjoy!

Fab wedges from Charlotte Russe and Lauren Conrad for Kohl's skinnies. Love!

Some of the fam got in town today, and more family and friends get in tomorrow. Can't wait! I missed my nephew's birthday party earlier this month so we had a little party of our own :)

He loves Uncle Daniel  :)

And lastly, the MASSIVE steaks the hubs and my brother picked for our cook out tonight. Crazy! My sister-in-law and I went for more humble pieces of meat/fish, lol. Paired all that with zucchini, squash and russet potatoes on the grill. Mmmm, Mmmm.

Taking them to my father-in-law's farm tomorrow, and boy is my nephew excited!! 


Good Night!
