Looking put together should be easy. Often I finish my look with my jewelry- but there is one statement piece in my outfit; other times is the opposite. These are all recent outfits that were super basic, but had just enough of a twist to make them unique. Linking in LTK.
This dress gets so many compliments- and it makes sense. It’s one piece, it’s easy and makes a statement. I’ve worn it with lots of different shoes and jewelry. Highly recommend adding some dark brown zebra to your wardrobe this summer and fall.
Hair extensions are the only reason I can do long hair at my age. I had long hair growing up- but many of you found me when my hair was short, shorter and even a pixie. I love change and I love drama most. Long dark hair has been a fun “extreme” for me, just like my undercut was.
I wear Great Lengths Hair Extensions and I’ve used them for volume or length or both for a few years. We change them about three times a year. Katie Vitale Grither does a great job and it’s always fun to switch it up. You can always drop questions here or send her a DM for the professional answers. 🫶

Waterproof faith-based jewelry has quickly become a top seller. The sideways cross is especially meaningful because it represents carrying your faith into everyday life—a reminder that Jesus carried His cross for us, and now we take up our own cross and follow Him.
