My favorite kind of necklace is one with meaning. I love the idea of wearing something that reminds me of a special moment or in the case of this necklace, a special person.

You may have noticed throughout the years that I love a monogram necklace. It’s my little way of keeping those that I love with me when I go out and about. My newest one might just be my favorite.

Ever since their launch in April, I’ve been wanting to add a couple of Gal Meets Glam Collection dresses to my wardrobe. Julia Engel is a blogger I’ve followed for years and it’s so exciting to see someone work so hard to see their goals realized.

As you’d expect, all the dresses are simply stunning. Like Julia’s style, they’re feminine, elegant and timeless. With so many of the designs being subtle nods to the past, I love that these are dresses that will never go out of style, including this one.

Not only is it practical, but it’s also very fun to tailor your outfit for your destination when traveling. 

I'm always inspired by the places I'm able to travel to, and that really reflects in my outfits that I'll bring with (and the pieces I purchase during the trip)!

When choosing outfits to pack, here are three things that I think about when dressing for the city we’ll be traveling to:

Amazingly, it's been nearly two months since we spent a long weekend in Amsterdam.

I said it before, but I'll say it again—I loved this city. It has such a relaxed atmosphere, yet it's still elegant. That goes for so many things—the architecture, the attitudes, the restaurants and even the style. I wore this outfit—a casual, yet elevated look, much like the city itself—for an afternoon of exploring.

Oh Tulum. I wanted to love you, I really did.

We were really excited about this trip, but were surprised by a few things when we arrived, so I wanted to share my experience in case you're contemplating your own getaway to this part of Mexico.

When I think of occasionwear, I think clothes that are stiff, maybe a bit boring or subdued, matronly or overly embellished. Not what I want to wear any day of my life. Fortunately, I’ve found a dress that’s playful, bold and actually wearable.

Occasions are usually parties, which are meant to be fun—I think your outfit should make you feel wonderful and ready to partake in it!

Better really (like, really) late than never, so here are a few photos from last summer when we flew out to Chicago for a family wedding. I was a bit nervous, as I'd be meeting quite a few of my husband's family members for the first time. And even more nervous because I hadn't yet chosen what to wear (or even brought a dress with me!).

Glasses of bubbly, a chance to wear a pretty dress, and an afternoon spent in the sunshine? Polo is my kind of sport - here are seven term to know.

If I were to give an award for prettiest season, spring is easily the winner. In Notting Hill, just as the pretty pink cherry blossoms are starting to fall off the trees, the purple wisteria begins to bloom.
