Dear D'Arcy

Valentine’s day is tomorrow do you have big plans?  

My Hubby and I normally spend Valentine’s day with our kids. My family wake’s up to their St. Valentine treats and then we have an Italian dinner at home. Something about Italian food that always seems romantic. Don’t you think? 

Our anniversary is this month so we have “our Time” on the 25th. It will be 23 years for us this year! Man where does the time go?  I’ll be talking more about this next week. 

Because we really don’t go out for Valentine’s day, I like to look festive but not dressed up. I thought I would share a couple of cute casual and festive outfits you can easily wear for Valentine’s day. Perfect for helping at school parties or a surprise lunch with your hubby. (which by the way is what my hubby just came in and told me, he plans on taking me to a Valentine’s day,  lunch at our favorite restaurant Twig’s!) YAY….He normally doesn’t take a week day off so this was a nice surprise.  I love the idea of a Valentine’s Day lunch, restaurant won’t be as crowded as night and we can still have dinner with our family.  What’s your plans?

Ok, so lets get to the outfit details…. You all know by now that I love pink, pretty much any shade of it! So finding a couple of sweaters on sale in shades of pink really made me happy! Right now is a great time to grab a a sweater or two for a great deal…I found the cashmere LOVE sweater in pale pink at Victoria Secrets and the Hot pink distressed sweater at American Eagle. I knew both of these would be darling for the month of love.

Some of the items have sold out or are only available in store’s, so I am linking similar items for you to get a similar look!   Also you can find ALL the up to date outfits I wear by following me at Dress like me

1.Cashmere sweater- Victoria Secrets I bought the Love and the Tease (my hubby has called me that for 23 years!)

2.Hot pink distressed sweater –American Eagle

Found…My New Favorite Jeans!

Finding your new favorite jeans at an affordable price just got easier….

You know I love the brand Kut from the Kloth! I have made references prior.  Here is a detailed prior post… I love that Kut from the Kloth is a brand that Chic Style Clothing boutique carries and they make sure to carry ALL the new releases for each season along with the Boutique exclusives. Last season Kut made the Connie frayed Ankle skinny in a dark wash with modell in it! It feels like butter and fits like a glove. I fell in love and grabbed 2 pairs of the frayed bottom cuties….WELL….For Spring they designed this FAB jean with a cute side slit and unstructured hem, perfect paired with booties. This jean fits amazing and truly fits every body type from 0-14 petite or tall and looks great with anything you pair with it.  I love the way it fits, feels and that you can go from casual to dressy with its dark wash. Do yourself a favor and grab a pair or two! 

I really tried to show you several types of outfits you could wear with these fabulous jeans, hoping to show you how versatile they really are. Come Spring they’ll  look great with tees and tanks paired with your favorite wedges and kicks.

All of the Clothing Above is from Chic Style Clothing boutique in South Ogden.  You can shop local to grab your unique pieces or call the shop at 801-749-0664 and order over the phone as their website is always changing and has some of their best sellers.

Hoping you have a wonderful week! Have any question? Please leave a comment below and I’ll be happy to try to help! OX, D’Arcy

 

This is my personal opinion. In collaboration with Chic Style Clothing boutique.

 Hello Beautiful’s, 

Activewear is still strong and making big trends in 2018.  I am loving this brand Sentia 

 With life being busy and many liking the minimalist trend it’s nice to get multiple uses out of items in our closet. That doesn’t stop in active wear, ONE of the big trends in active wear is having piece’s that will take you from the studio to the street with ease.

It’s all in the detail’s….Cute cutouts, great fabrics that fit well yet have special details.  Sentia is a company owned by sister’s and ran by all woman, they understand what woman want and the attention to detail in their sportswear line shows. 

Leggings with mesh details add style yet breathable and add that Fashionable detail you can wear with a cute sweater perfect for the street. You can wear sneakers or your Ugg boots.  Cute cut out tee’s and mixed fabrics make a work out shirt perfect to pair with jeans. I’ve been living in my easy cardigan, just enough to keep me warm after a workout and cute enough to layered over my favorite rocker tee’s for running errands or heading to the movies.

Love your Melon

Knit beanies have been all the rage for a couple of years NOW. Who doesn’t love a super soft beanie or headband to keep your head warm or wear on a bad hair day! What I love even more then super soft beanie is a product that gives back. Love Your Melon worked to develop a beanie that is soft enough for children battling cancer. Fifty percent (50%) of profit from the sale of all Love Your Melon products is given to Love Your Melon’s nonprofit partners in the fight against pediatric cancer. Their nonprofit partners work in the field of pediatric oncology, fund cancer research initiatives and provide immediate support for families of children battling cancer. All of their products are made in the United States of America. 

Now taking that beanie from working out to the street comes with ease, their too cute to wear just to work out it! I have been wearing mine all Winter from outside work outs to Casual date nights. So soft you’ll want several colors.

Misfit Shine 2

Automatically tracks steps, distance, calories, and light and restful sleep

Vibration alerts for call and text notifications, movement reminders, and alarms

Swim proof, anodized aluminum disc with multicolor LED progress display and time

Non-charging, replaceable battery last up to 6 months

Reflective band option features a sleek, reflective accent that reflects light in even the dimmest conditions – so you can stay safe and in style at all times.

I have been using this awesome fitness tracker for a couple of months now. I love it! I love keeping track of my daily steps, it helps keep me motivated if I haven’t moved enough that day to get up and walk. It’s easy to wear, looks fashionable and I find it interesting to see how I really sleep, with the sleep tracker and best of all I don’t have to charge it. What no charging?  Has a battery like a regular watch… Brilliant!

Day to Night Affordable Metallic outfit Idea

Seeing Stars and loving all this seasons’s metallic’s. Kut from the Kloth Jeans & Star sweater on SALE for $24, Tassel earrings Nordstrom ombre sold out so I linked the Solid colors.

I love that you can use this outfit day or night and that it really can be causal simply because it’s a Sweater & Jeans. Change out the Shoes and accessories to simple studded earrings and converse or bootie and you have a casual look. Looks that can change from day to night with just swapping out a couple of pieces makes going from work to dinner with ease.

  If you have been following me for awhile you know I am a big fan of Kut from the Kloth jeans. I love how they fit so when they come out with a new wash (this Metallic) or body style I am always up to grab a pair! The fabric is stretchy and the metallic gives them some glam.

Way’s you can try the metallic trend without breaking the bank…..

The metallic’s this season add a playfulness that any age can wear without being over the top. Really who doesn’t want a little sparkle! Not sure how you feel about metallic’s? Try it in a small dose! Like the sweater I am wearing. It’s on sale which makes it a reasonable way to try a trend. Want to make a bolder step? Try the jeans.. Kut from the Kloth is having a But one get one 50% off sale right NOW! If you haven’t tried Kut nows the time! 

Talking about sparkle look at these shoes! More details about them at the bottom of this post. You know I am a shoe girl and I love different shoes. I really feel the shoes can make or break the outfit. Buying different & unique shoes can take a regular pair of jeans and a plain tee or sweater into a statement outfit. If you notice I rarely have on a basic pair of shoes….Shoes can finish the outfit or Make your outfit pop! Next time you go shoe shopping… Pick the color over black or grab a print! Make a statement! Get the shoes girl!!!

More about HOW Shoes can Make an outfit!coming Next week

Crystal and Ice Open toed Badgley Mischka shoes (sold out) Similar shoe here

Kicking off the New Year with Glitter booties

easy to wear outfit you can copy

Striped Sweater @chic Style Utah , distressed Jeans by Edyson and glitter boots by Gianni Bini

Kicking off the New year with New Glitter booties!

Of coarse you know I’d kick of the New Year with NEW shoes:)…..(One of my FAVORITE things!) When I spotted these glittery cuties I really couldn’t pass them up and on SALE! I texted hubby and asked him if he wanted to get me a pair for Christmas (excuse because I would have bought them anyway!)  Of coarse I had to wrap them and put them under the tree… Who else has to do that?  These cuties really can be paired with a lot of items in your closet. I love how the dress up a simple sweater and your go to jeans! 

About the look…This simple striped sweater is up to date with the flared sleeve Similar sweater and gives it a fun on trend detail. Paired with my favorite go to Distressed denim skinnies ( unfortunately this brand is no longer) I linked similar Jeans Here and Here. The glitter bootie by Gianni Bini Sold out Similar here gives it some glam and My favorite leopard clutch give the look a Pop! A dupe clutch Here

I hope you found some inspiration in this outfit and can copy the look with easy from your closet! I am looking forward to sharing more daily looks with you through 2018 as I am making my blog and social media a priority and have some really fun things to share.    Thank you for following along and helping my journey grow. Have you followed along on my Social media for different tips, daily thoughts, brand reviews and stories?  Here’s ways you can follow along Instagram, Facebook, Pinterest, Twitter, Bloglovin, youtube, 

Do you set resolutions? I really don’t set a list of Resolutions but I do set goals… I set Goals for every day, week, and month. I feel it’s a easier way to reach them without the pressure of sticking to something for a whole year! (the stress of failure!)  I can accomplish more looking at it as a daily goal (steps) working to the bigger. Then when the year comes to and end I can see all the ways I grew instead of failed! Maybe you could take the baby step way and set your daily goal, that helps you reach your main goal….Good luck! I think everybody loves a fresh start!

I wanted to share a couple of my goals for 2018 with you, I have a big list so I won’t bore you and list them all. I thought It would be fun to share my list throughout the month. 

#1 Share more content with you.

#2 Finish reading the Bible (last year I wanted to have read it cover to cover & I got over 1/2 way)

#3 De-clutter, purge, donate, give

#4 Size down our home

#5 growing my busines

#6 learn something NEW everyday.

Did you set goals or have a resolution? I would love to hear some of yours comment below. OX, D’Arcy

Happy New Year….Bringing in 2018 Outfit

thinking outside of your closet

New Years eve outfit using my hubby’s velvet tuxedo jacket!

Happy New Year!

Wishing you all the best in 2018 with many blessing’s and I  hope you can make ALL your dreams come true.

I wanted to share with you a fun little outfit I created for New year’s with my favorite item from my Hubby’s closet! He’s velvet tuxedo jacket (Jcrew)…Although it’s a little big it works! It adds balances with having tight bottoms. I paired it with a fun sequins tank top (old), black jeggings by Kut from the Kloth, metallic rose gold Clutch  similar here and New Years worthy shoes by Badgley Mischka similar here.

I love thinking outside the box when it comes to creating a outfit and who say’s everything has to be new! Go dig in your hubby’s closet & see what you could barrow to dress up. I also like to search through my closet and find pieces I haven’t worn in awhile and create an outfit from that piece. In this case I found this cute cream sequined tank top. It’s amazing what can get “LOST” in your closet! 

I don’t know about you but I really do like to stay home for New Year’s eve. (every once in awhile it’s fun to go to a party) Growing up it was Tradition to get into Pj’s, cousins came over to play games & watch movies and my mom made a appetizer dinner for snacking all night and we tried to stay up for the ball drop. Having this kind of night with my family is relaxing after all the hustle of the Holiday’s. What’s your New year’s tradition?

Make sure to check back tomorrow for a peek at one of my favorite Christmas gifts…Hint I had to wrap it myself! OX, D’Arcy

Part 2 Summer Time favorite Moment’s… A little Sa Part 2 
Summer Time favorite Moment’s…
A little Saturday Series, I am doing to finish out Summer…

We officially have 3 more weeks left of Summer☀️🪴🪏🌻

I thought it would be Fun to share some moments that make my “favorites”❤️

🚨Come Back Next Saturday to see what made my list….

Today’s “Summer Moment”
Exploring the state we live in..
Ben and I have always loved embracing where we live, by getting out and exploring..
Doing stay-cations, pretty drives, enjoying the great outdoors and exploring fun little towns and the charming small business that fill them.

We love a good day date and Midway, located outside of Deer Valley, is a charming 🇨🇭Swiss town, that we’ve enjoyed bring our family to for years. 

It’s evolved over the years, (know for hosting “Swiss Days” 🇨🇭 the first weekend in September), is full of darling small business, from Cute gift & home decor shops, farm stores, several delicious restaurants, a charming book store, and something our family loves several farm to table shopping and eating establishments. 

If you love to support ranches, farmers and small local business, this is a must visit town. 
⛰️Surrounded by stunning mountains, green pastures and gorgeous ranches. 

Here’s a few of our favorites:⬇️
@havenhaus_co 
@ballerinafarmstore 
@thedaintypearco 
@folkloremidway 
@midway_mercantile 
@hebervalleycheese 

The @zermattutah is our favorite Charming  Swiss 🇨🇭Hotel to stay at, and our boys always loved they’re pool in the winter😉

Tell me, what’s something you do in the summer to make “moment’s”?

—PotteyBarn or Walmart—

Come with me as I redo my porch from Summer ☀️🪴to a little pre-Fall🍂

Using Great Basics.. that makes it easy to layer in Fall in a couple of weeks✔️

I love these Weather safe woven baskets, that makes it easy to change out your plants and flowers per the season.

Using boxwoods now and will switch to mums in a couple weeks.

Striped rug to layer in black and white is a great  base now and will look great for fall 🍂 layers with a large welcome mat. 

Boxwood wreath with black and white striped bow and a welcome sign above.

Adding layers of iron lanterns… I’ll add  fall bows later. 

Clean-Classic and a perfect transition look before the fall season. 

Come back next month to see how I transform our porch to FALL🍂
