Fall Styling for Cabana Life

 

Hello pretty ladies,

I hope your week is going well. I feel like it’s flying by. The fall season is just one of my favorite seasons, and it flies by way too fast. Then we enter into the Holiday season at warp speed! Today, I am sharing a fun little peek at the new releases from Cabana Life. Perfect for taking on vacation as resort wear and wearable into the fall season. (you know how I love pieces that serve multiple purposes!) 

Fall Styling for Cabana Life

Cabana life is more than resort wear. Their pieces are not only functional for resort wear and provide SPF50. In addition, they have excellent style function, and design to take into the Fall season with a couple of styling tips.

Tips for Styling Cabana Life For Fall

Many Cabana life pieces can be easily styled for Fall, paired with booties, a denim jacket, Sneakers, and a blazer. I adore this Fun golden yellow and blue printed tunic perfect color’s for Fall. Styled below with a leather jacket and tall boots with a western flare.

Another option would be to pair it with your favorite jeans and wear them as a tunic top.

New Sweatshirt

Fall is for layers, and I adore the new cozy Sweatshirt perfect for layering over a tank or your swimsuit (if headed on a trip)

 

 

Great for chilly Fall mornings and cool evenings at the Beach or pool. It pairs excellently with Cabana life shorts or your favorite jeans for a walk or strolling the pier. You’ll find me wearing this cutie, sitting on our deck with a cocktail in hand this weekend, or heading out for a walk. 

(Fits true to size.)

Cabana Life Gift Giving

With the Holiday fast approaching I am sneaking in a couple of Cabana Life items I think would make for great gifts. Perfect for your Beach & Travel lovers

A sweatshirt or a travel cup would make an excellent gift for your Beach and travel lovers. They could use year-round.

8 Staple Pieces To UP Your Fall Wardrobe

8 Staple pieces to UP your Fall Wardrobe 

 

8 Staple pieces to UP your Fall Wardrobe 

 

Hello pretty ladies!

Today, I am so excited to share. I will be on Good Things Utah sharing: A Fashion Segment on “8 Staple Pieces To UP Your Fall Wardrobe” You can stream the segment HERE or Live at 10:00 am Mnt. On local channel 4/KTVX. Below: I am sharing a complete list of all the items I am sharing on the show and a couple of styling tips.

 Purchasing classic pieces is always my first suggestion to build a great wardrobe. I do, however, love that you can pick up a few key trending pieces at affordable prices to help give your whole wardrobe a fresh, updated look.

 

8 Staple pieces to UP your Fall Wardrobe 

8 Staple pieces to UP your Fall Wardrobe 🍂

-Platform loafers 

– A good button up

-Cropped Cardigan

-Faux Leather (sharing crop pants and skirt) 

-Wide leg Jean

-Dark slim straight leg

-Western vibe (sharing sweater and boots) 

 

A few essential clothing and accessory pieces can be added to your Fall wardrobe to give it an updated look. These eight key Staple pieces are trending this Fall and work well to mix and match with your own pieces.

Trending Pieces

Every season we see a few new trends come into play, and it’s always fun to add a couple of these trends to your wardrobe that can give your classic pieces a fresh new look.

Platform loafers 8 Staple pieces to UP your Fall Wardrobe 

A fun way to update your classic look, These shoes are the perfect go-to shoes for Fall and can be worn with anything from jeans to shorts, from skirts to dresses. I love them styled with slightly cropped frayed jeans, a great tee or sweater, and a blazer. 

Purchase Here and use code DARCY10 for 10% off

Button up

Yes, a great button-up is always a classic wardrobe staple. But think about an oversized gauze button-up in excellent Fall color. This oversized button-up makes a great piece worn alone with jeans but is a perfect (3rd piece) statement layer worn open over a bodysuit.

Trending Pants

While we’re seeing every style of jeans/pants in fashion right now, here are a few that are having a moment.

Faux leather-

Leather is traditionally a textile for Fall and winter, But it is coming in strong this year, showing up not only in jackets but in every style of pants. From skinny, wide leg crop, straight leg, and bow waisted. 

  Great for adding texture to your wardrobe and easy to style. Pair with Denim, classic button-up, plaid, a blazer, or even a cardigan depending on the style you want to achieve.

Let’s Talk Trending Jeans:

The wide leg– wide-leg lengthens your legs, accentuates your waistline, and shows off all your curves, making it an incredibly flattering silhouette on bodies of all shapes and sizes. 

8 Staple pieces to UP your Fall Wardrobe 

A flared leg– Universally flattering, flared jeans come in numerous iterations, including high, mid, and low rise waists – regardless of body type, there’s a pair that will work for you. The wider hemline helps to balance out pear shapes, larger busts, and wide shoulders, as well as drawing the eye down and away from your middle.

Slim straight leg-These always-right jeans lay the groundwork for great style with a classic, clean-cut fit.

What To Wear, When Transitioning From Summer To Fall

Indio and Green

Straight-leg jeans are the more laid-back, less body-conscious cousin of skinny jeans. If you do not love skin-tight jeans, try straight jeans instead. Hourglass, apple, and athletic shapes will all rock a straight leg with style and grace.

8 Staple pieces to UP your Fall Wardrobe 

Skinny jeans– while they aren’t trending, they still have a place in our closet. This is a jean that works with the Tall boots and the trending western boots, plus balances the oversized western cardigans and even blazers. 

(I will share next week how to style your skinny jeans in a fresh way.)

8 Staple pieces to UP your Fall Wardrobe 

 

The Cropped Cardigan

It pairs well with high-waisted pants, mid-rise, and flared styles. The cropped sweater, cardigan, and jackets add balance to this pants style! 

I like the hip-length style for my shape as I don’t have a waist and am more straight up and down and hide a touch of tummy. If you want to accentuate your waist, purchase a cropped piece that is more tapered versus boxy.

Western Vibe/ Yellowstone trend:

The western vibe has been inching its way into Fall fashion for a couple of seasons, and this year it’s here in a BIG way. The look of the west is here, and I am all about it✔️ Today, I am sharing a couple of pairs of Boots. A cowboy pair and a tall western inspired

8 Staple pieces to UP your Fall Wardrobe 

The Western Boots:

We’re seeing western-inspired boots and cowboy boots everywhere, and they’re being styled with dresses & skirts and flares and skinny-to-skies with cropped pants. 

Tall western boots can be worn with Skinny jeans, leggings, and dresses and skirts. 

White Cowboy style boots can also be worn with the above but work great under a flared and some straight-leg jeans.

Western-inspired booties are also all the rage and can be worn with cropped pants, dresses and skirts, and jeans as long as there are about 1 1/2 inches of space between the boot and hem.

Way To Style Cabana Life For Fall

Western-inspired Cardigans:

I love the Aztec/ western vibe of the oversized cardigan and sweaters of the season. A great warm and cozy mountain vibe with a little fresh update. Worn great with your skinny jeans and tall boots for balance. Yet, looks comfy with your straight-leg jeans or worn over a shirt dress.

Fall Transition outfits with Color

Fall transition outfits with Color 🍂🍁

Fall Transition outfits with Color

Hello pretty ladies; I hope you are having a great month. It seems as if September is flying by; we are seeing a glimmer of Fall weather here and there in Utah, but we still have the High 80s and low 90s, which makes wearing Fall sweaters and layers a little HOT! 🙂 Today, I thought I would share a few tips with you to get that fall vibe without the heat. I am sharing a few tips for Fall Transition outfits with Color.

 

Are you transitioning your outfits for Fall?

Fall Transition outfits with Color

Style Tip Fall color:

Try using Color… Fall transition doesn’t mean you have to add layers. It could be as simple as changing your color pallet✔️

 

Here I am wearing an oversized Gauze button-up by @petalandpup. It’s a perfect shade of Spiced Rust, paired with Cropped Mothers jeans, a pair of sandal clogs, and a Spiced Rust Felt hat🍂🍁

A Fall feeling… but the top breaths and is lightweight, cropped jeans, and open-toe shoes… easy to wear on an Indian summer day, yet gives the “feel” we want in the FALL months🍂🍁

Fall Transition outfits with Color

Style Tip:

Pull out your Fall colored clothing….Shades of cream, tans, browns, pumpkins, golden yellow, mustard, Rust, merlot, and plum. You’ll be surprised at what you can create for Fall from the Color you are ready to own.

Style Tip for Fall:

Most of us can’t wait to layer up in the Fall… but temperatures aren’t complying🍁🍂 So, add on Fall accessories! Change your sandal for a bootie or mule with a felt hat, a suede, or a leather bag. Easy to do and doesn’t add heat🔥

Way To Style Cabana Life For Fall

Hello Pretty Ladies, 

I hope your week is going well and you enjoy the last bit of summer. Our weather hasn’t quite hit the fall temperatures, but it’s coming faster than some want. I love summer, but I adore Fall. The cooler mornings and evenings, the smell of the air, and the changing of the leaves are just a few things I am looking forward to. Today, I want to share Cabana life’s spf50 eyelet dress styled a little western for Fall. 

Cabana Life clothing doesn’t have to be resort wear or summer clothing. You can easily give their pieces a new look by adding different accessories or laying them up. Here I said western boots, a big Fall trend, and a cowboy hat. On a chilly day, you could add a denim jacket. This look would be darling for a music festival, country concert, country fair, the rodeo, or like I am wearing it on vacation to Jackson hole, Wy.

What To Wear, When Transitioning From Summer To Fall

What To Wear, When Transitioning From Summer To Fall

What To Wear, When Transitioning From Summer To FallHello Pretty Ladies,

Hoping your week is going well. I came off a fantastic trip with my mom and sister to deal with some significant family and home issues, and I feel a little overwhelmed and sad. Knowing we all have things to deal with, sometimes it feels like when it rains, it pours. I know we have to put all our faith and trust in God in times like these. (If you are a prayer warrior, we could sure use them)

When you have a career in social media, everything always seems to be perfect, and I think it’s important to share real life. I believe that is what sharing and being transparent is about. I always try to be positive and smile, but that is who I am. Even when the world around you seems to be crashing, you can always find the good. So remember when life seems complicated (we all have those periods), and it could always be worse. 

With that being said, that might be why you don’t see me personally poping into stories as often. Just know I appreciate you. Thank you for being in my tribe and for your love and support. Now let’s get to the good stuff. I have a fun Chit Chat Chic to host tonight with some exciting news, so I hope you’ll tune in at 6:00 mnt. Time. I also had the opportunity to work with Chicos on their Fall transition launch, and that is what I am excited to share with you today.

7 Must Have Hair Care & Styling Tools

7 Must Have Hair Care & Styling Tools

7 Must Have Hair Care & Styling Tools

Hello Pretty Ladies, I hope you had a great week. I am on vacation with my mom and sister, taking a road trip, and checking a few places off our bucket list. (more on that later) I hope you are tuning into my Instagram stories to travel with us. While I didn’t join in on the Chat on Chit Chat Chic, they talked about all things hair. I thought I would chime in here and share my picks. 7 Must Have Hair Care & Styling Tools.

Some of my biggest questions asked is how I do my hair and what I use. below, I am sharing a quick round-up of my hair care products, tools, and styling items I love. Hoping I can answer some of your questions in the process. Note: I share how I style my hair and ways to do a couple of my go-to looks over on my Instagram on reels, and the Highlight Tap Hair do’s. HERE HERE.

7 Must Have Hair Care & Styling Tools

7 Must Have Hair Care & Styling Tools

  1. T3 Hair Dryer-Want that professional blowout look? Need your hair to dry fast? Then this is your hair dryer. 

  2. Braided Hair Piece– I love this easy-to-wear headband. So easy to use and adds detail to your hair fast. I love it with a ponytail but looks great with your hair down and a couple of pieces of hair pulled out around your face. Affordable at $

  3. T3 curling Iron-Need a Curling Iron that helps your hair stay curled? This one does the trick.

  4. Wet Hair Brush– The brush you have to use on damp hair to prevent damage. and untangle hair with easy LOVE

  5. Hair scrunches– Perfect for protecting your hair at night from damage. It also works great for a top knot to add bulk and create a bigger bun. 

  6. Dry Shampoo– Dry Bar Dry shampoo is my all-time favorite. It smells incredible and works to give your hair a fresh look without feeling gummy. The original is excellent for blonds. If you’re a brunette, get the dry shampoo for brunettes, as the original can leave a white residue. This also acts a little bit like a texture spray. 

  7. Kendra Hair Spray– I have finally found a hair spray that genuinely works on my silk straight hair to help hold a curl. It’s worth every penny. 

  8. Hair Bands-These little clear hair ties are great for braids. Also, bubble hair do’s and half-up hair styling. I also love these to wrap up my holiday ribbons and keep cords wound up. 

  9. Navy Texturing Spray-I didn’t start using a texturing spray until a couple of years ago, not realizing this also helps with the body and does work to help keep your hair to hold a style. For me, it helps my hair to hold a curl. I have to do a lot to help my natural silky straight hair! In my book, it’s a must-have product.

Storage Healthy choice NO MORE PLASTICS… We made Storage Healthy choice 
NO MORE PLASTICS…

We made the change last year to remove all plastic in our lifestyle..

One of the changes we made for bread & cheese along with sandwich’s is to use beeswax wraps and beeswax and linen storage bags..

Safe, reusable, non toxic,, locks in freshness, ease to clean, freezer safe and reuse & recycled 

Highly recommend

What DRESSES I am wearing as a 54 year old, this S What DRESSES I am wearing as a 54 year old, this Spring & Summer…

A little something for everyone…10 dresses & Styling ideas

-Ruffles & Bows
-Show a little leg
-Calf & Maxi length for those who don’t 
-Casual- Everyday-Workwear and -Travel
-Color- Neutrals and Print

A few style TIPs and the BIGGEST style mistake….

Just putting on the dress and not accessorizing …. Take NOTE of every look… Shoes, Bag, Jewlery and finishing accessories ✔️✔️✔️

Accessorizing can make or break your look… Styling doesn’t have to be hard or over the top… but it is something you don’t want to skip…

Changing your bag takes 3 minutes, picking a shoe can be an issue for some. Tip: pick a neutral sandal or heel, 1 good neutral sandal & Bag can work for all these looks. (I’ve linked several over on my blog and in stories) 

- A great gold or silver stack of bracelets, a favorite necklace and earrings will work if you are a minimalist..

If you’re a Maximalists like me😉 you’ll have a collection for every season, every “vibe” and several choices to change the looks….

You can be classic and chic, simple and elegant, boho and layered…. Just DON’T skip accessorizing😉

This little spit fire is 23🤍 I can’t believe how f This little spit fire is 23🤍
I can’t believe how fast time has flown by 🤍

It’s been so fun watching him grow from a  little pistol into this young man🤍and amazing New daddy. 

His determination, and strong will, made him a great athlete, while his tender heart  and sensitivity & caring has made him kind to others. He’s loyal, has a strong work ethic and a joy for adventure. 

He’s our boy that would want to save every kitten and brought us home our beloved Binx and Little Miss…

The pickiest eater ever, until about the age of 12, and  He wouldn’t try a burger until age 13! (Thank goodness that’s all changed) 😉

So many memories , yet doesn’t seem like it could already be 23 years! 
Proud of the man and watching him become a daddy has been one of our biggest joys🤍🤍

Happy 23rd 🎂🎉Hampton Steel we couldn’t love you more🤍🤍🤍
