Preppy Activewear

I can’t tell you the number of times I’ve been shopping for cute, preppy activewear and said to myself, “what’s so hard about creating something cute, feminine, and fun to work out in, people?!”  My favorite athleisure brands created great basics, but where was the fun?  I’ve always tried to channel my inner Elle Woods in all aspects of life.  “Hi, I’m Elle Woods and this is Bruiser Woods. We’re both Gemini vegetarians.” 😂  True story: my first resumé out of nursing school was on pink paper.  I’d be lying if I said that I didn’t use Legally Blonde for…

Red & White Stripe

I love a good stripe blouse, and my mantra is you can never have too many!  I love the bow detailing of this blouse, and anything I can pair with my favorite pair of white jeans is a-okay in my book.  I paired this red & white stripe blouse with these Manolo Blahnik gingham pumps that I bought in the spring/summer Nordstrom sale.  They were about 70% off and I got a great deal on them!  I also bought them in the navy/white gingham, because when you find something you love, you must buy it in another color! 😉  Sadly,…

Ellsworth & Ivey Sweater

I can’t believe summer is almost over!  We’re officially in the home stretch.  Where did the time go?!  What better way to celebrate the dog days of summer than with these fabulous Ellsworth & Ivey sweaters?  They’re classic, nautical, and celebrate your #happyplace.  My happy place just happens to be the East End of Long Island, so this Montauk sweater was calling my name in the worst way possible!  Dress it up with white or dark denim and your favorite pair of lived-in leather sandals. I’ve styled these frayed hem jeans before, and they’re seriously the best distressed pair of…

Striped Sweater Tank

I love a good sweater tank.  I tend to rock them all summer long.  While a sweater tank is not necessarily the most ideal top on humid days for obvious reasons, it’s great for when you want to add a little something extra to an outfit.  They’re also perfect for work, because they’re heavier than a typical sleeveless blouse (hellooo, aggressive office A.C.!) and look very polished.  They add a little texture to an otherwise drab outfit, and in my opinion, look quite rich.  Something as simple as changing up a plain cotton tank to one with texture goes a…

Nautical Boyfriend Cardigan

Happy Friday, friends!  Excited for this rainy week to be over.  If you live on the east coast, then you probably know what I’m talking about.  We’ve been experiencing almost an entire week of wet weather.  Although my lawn and flowers probably beg to differ, I’m so looking forward to a weekend of sunshine!  These photos were obviously taken last week at the shore, but just flipping through them makes me excited for the weekend ahead. I’ve been eying this nautical boyfriend cardigan since I first laid eyes on it, but it finally went on sale (and it’s actually a…
