Helping women love what they wear on a budget

Best Sellers and Popular Blog Posts of 2021

Round up of best selling clothing items and popular blog posts of 2021

I hope that everyone has been enjoying their Christmas break.  I have been semi-un-plugged this last week, meaning that I haven’t been glued to my phone as usual and staying up late to work on blog posts.  It’s been amazing!  I’ve spent a lot of time with my family and I have been loving every moment.  But I am missing the blog and I am getting excited for this upcoming year.  I’ve been taking a break from creating new content, so this week I just wanted to do some review posts of 2021.

How to Style Tights For Winter

December 20, 2021 by Katie Haller

 

9 winter outfits wearing tights
 
Living in a cold climate like Michigan, I am always trying to figure out how to winterize my wardrobe.  I like to make the most of my clothes and wear them year-round.  The best way to do that is by adding layers.  One of my favorite winter layers is tights.  Tights are a great option when you want to dress up in the winter, but also stay warm and hide your pale winter legs.  Today I want to share some tips for wearing tights along with some ways that I have styled tights with my wardrobe.

Affordable Green Dress for the Holidays

December 15, 2021 by Katie Haller

 6 ways to style a green dress for the holidays

I wasn’t planning on sharing this dress in a blog post, but then I decided that it was just too good not to share as many times as I could.  Just when I thought that I was done shopping for the year, I saw this dress at Old Navy and because I am loaded up with super cash I decided to grab it. (Super cash gets me every time! 😂) I love the dress because it’s very basic.  On its own, it’s just a plain dress, but once you play around with it and add some layers and accessories it becomes this very cute fun little dress.

5 Holiday Wardrobe Staples

December 13, 2021 by Katie H.

 
This year as I sat down to write about my favorite holiday wardrobe essentials, I realized that I have already written the same exact post.  I went back through my archives and realized that everything I wanted to share this year was the same thing I posted 2 years ago.  So instead of writing the same exact post, I decided to update it and repost.

Mom-Life Update

December 6, 2021 by Katie Haller

I realize that’s it been a minute since I have given a mom life update.  I love sharing my kiddos and talking about my journey through motherhood, but sometimes I get so focused on the fashion posts, the mom-life posts get pushed aside.  After Anna turned one I stopped the baby update posts, but now that she’s turning 18 months this month, I decided I wanted to take a minute to catch up on life with 2 kids.
