Tights are back in style! Click on your favorite pair for more colors. Fleece tights are all the rage! My favorite tights have been the two pair of opaque tights. They come in multiple colors to choose from and have a booty boosting panel, no control top, and extra length for tall gals. I’m borderline petite and the extra fabric was not an issue. I’ve worn them several times. Check them out. I’m going to get a few more colors.

Discover the new rivete denim at LOFT! With so many sizes and styles, you're sure to find your perfect pair.

My top two picks after trying on more styles are:
1. The dark wash Slim Mid Rise/Regular/Regular — it has timeless lines that follow your natural curves. Since it's shorter than other styles, it hits just above my shoes, which I think is perfect for warmer months ahead. I plan to style them with a cute cropped top, a belt, and sandals.

2. The Mid Wash Relaxed Wide Leg High Rise/Regular/Petite. Fun,I truly enjoy how fashionable and comfy these jeans are. I love the way they fit perfectly and accentuate my shape beautifully.

All styles passed my sit test and had just the right stretch. I tagged the ones I tried on first, then listed two tops I tried on and bought, then some other denim styles available.

If you're curious about rivete denim labels, here's a quick guide:
Slim
Mid Rise/ Regular/ Regular — reading from left to right, it means the style, waist height, fit, and length.

I received training on the different fits and styles, so feel free to ask me any questions you have!

Springs look for the color Muse or Dark Wash.

Discover your perfect cocktail dress or formal gown in this beautiful collection—ideal for celebrating a wedding! 💕
While I really like how the aqua dress looks on me, the pink one is my favorite. I adore its structure and pattern, and I love that it has hidden pockets.
The aqua dress looks a bit different from the picture on the website. It's not quite as shimmery as it appears online. Instead of sequins, it has silver thread running through the fabric, giving it a subtle shine. Overall, I think it’s a nice choice. It features built-in cups, a flattering waistline, and see-through sleeves that add a lovely touch.

These pieces come together to create the perfect date night outfit for a warm spring evening. I never imagined I’d love the shorter tops we’ve seen in stores, but they are incredibly flattering for petite women. I’m wearing a regular size small in the top. And I also never thought I’d wear paper bag pants, but when they’re cut right and fit nicely, they become a staple in any wardrobe. These have a handy removable drawstring. Since I’m an hourglass, I had to do a little shimmy to get the pants over my hips, but once they were on, they felt fantastic. I’m wearing an extra small for the perfect fit.

Enjoy the fresh and vibrant colors of spring with J.Crew! From casual T-shirts to sophisticated tailored outfits, there's something perfect for every occasion.

Spring is in full bloom at Talbots, bursting with vibrant, cheerful colors! You’ll see a few of these make their way into my wardrobe this spring 😉

HOC Springs, this is your season to shine! If you have any question about colors, please reach out and ask. Blue Springs will shine bright in every color in this collection. If you are closer to Golden Spring, you may want to steer or clear of the lighter pinks, they lean a little cool.

After years of testing various luggage brands, Delsey has become our preferred choice for travel.
After several trips and flights, our bags still look as good as new—perhaps a few minor scuffs but nothing major like broken wheels or cracked cases. It truly pays to invest in quality luggage, especially for frequent travelers.

Besides the carry-on duffel shown atop the large suitcase, I also own a hard case carry-on, which my son was using when I took this photo.

All suitcases feature TSA-accessible zipper locks; the duffel has a combination lock with numbers on the side. The Duffel also features a backstrap opening to slide over a suitcase handle, along with a carry strap and handles. it has since been discontinued so I suggest the shoulder strap bag as a good alternative.

For detailed specifications and features, click on your preferred case to learn more.

Meeting Star-Lord from Guardians of the Galaxy was a highlight of our trip. Tip: You might spot him early in the morning near the ride.

LOFT had my essentials all set for this trip 💛. The exact tagged products came with me and were perfect for easy mixing and matching. I also tagged some of my other favorite pieces from my closet that almost accompanied me on the trip.

Spacious and versatile, this backpack features multiple compartments and three carrying options. It’s traveled with me to Italy, Alaska, and beyond. While stylish, don’t be fooled—it's durable and still looks great despite rough use. I particularly like the reversible carry strap, which I frequently use, and the multiple carrying options are a big plus depending on what I pack. As a frequent traveler, I’ve tested its capacity for heavy loads many times. It remains comfortable to carry whether I pack a little or a lot.

This is the perfect spring dress for walking around the parks or sitting in your favorite ice cream shop, like Beaches and Cream at The Beach Club. Coral is one of my favorite colors to wear, and it’s not as easy to find as it used to be. That’s why I grab it whenever I can. With a classic crossover top, a flattering waist, and breezy lightweight material, this dress will get a lot of use throughout the summer months. I also love the subtle large stripe tone-on-tone pattern.
I'm wearing a size petite 4 and I paired it with my favorite Vionic flip flops to keep it casual.

#LTKootd #LTKPetite #LTKOver40

I really needed new intimates and sleepwear, and Soma is my favorite place to shop. I love my new soft and comfortable sleepwear, especially the sleep shirts. They're a staple in my nighttime wardrobe.

I was excited to see their new spring collection, which includes vibrant and beautiful colors. I'm loving the seashell collection and wearing the sleep shirts in a size XS.

The cami, crop pants, and yellow sleep gown are a size S. I always like having a pair of pajamas with pants for lounging around. The shelf bra on the cami provides enough coverage to be worn without a robe. The nightgown is slightly see-through, so keep that in mind when wearing it around the house. It also comes in black.

The vanishing edge panties are my go-to for the gym or when wearing a fitted dress. The lace band doesn’t show through my gym leggings or most dresses. They offer the vanishing edge in various styles, including options without lace if that’s a concern. If you're considering updating your lingerie drawer, this is a great opportunity. There's no better time than now to shop at Soma!

I absolutely adore the retro prints Lilly Pulitzer is featuring in her new collection. They're so fun, playful, and vibrant—just the way we love them!

The shift dress is a charming pastel palette set against a crisp white background. It has a gorgeous scalloped hem. I hear this print is from the 1960s, making it an especially beautiful choice for Easter!

The romper on the right (yes, it has shorts underneath) is totally on trend with its bold, larger floral print in warm, bright colors. The sleeves add a touch of dramatic, romance. I like the longer zipper pull in the back—it really makes putting it on and taking it off much easier.

Whichever Lilly print you choose, you're sure to turn heads this season.

Meet my new favorite Vera Bradley tote! I was really disappointed when they discontinued the original because I love all the pockets inside and out. The good news is, the original Vera tote is back, and it's available in this smaller size too. I absolutely adore the new Cottage shells print; besides being perfect for beach life, it features some of my favorite bright spring colors. The inside print is adorable! As you can see, it has plenty of pockets to keep everything organized, and the zipper closure ensures your items stay secure. The front pocket is perfect for my Pro Max iPhone, while the zipper pocket is great for securing small essentials that I need quick access to.

If you’re a Disney Vacation Club Member, don’t forget to visit Vera Bradley in Disney Springs—you'll get a 15% discount on your entire purchase.

Magic Kingdom day called for some layers and waterproof pants. I’ve got a pair of Palmer shorts underneath my LOFT Wanderweave pants. These have those great zippers at the bottom so I can quickly take my pants off when it gets warmer.
A lightweight top with a cami underneath is a stylish way to layer. No need to remove the top layer, but I could if I wanted to.

Not shown in the picture, but definitely something I highly recommend, the backpack that I tagged. It was recommended in many travel groups, and I’ve gotten a lot of use of it on our trips. It has an inside insulated pocket to put your water in and it’s extremely roomy for putting those extras you’ll need during the changing seasons.
Tip: Bring a lightweight rain jacket, because you never know what Florida weather you'll encounter this time of year. It’s perfect for Tatiana‘s Bayou ride as well if you're going early in the morning and want to avoid walking around the park wet and cold.

I always pack a pair of jeans or two whenever I head to Florida during this season, and I’m really glad I brought this particular pair! They are the perfect length, but I also enjoy cuffing them when it warms up a bit for a cute cropped style. The mid-rise waist is a wonderful find these days. Although they’re called slim cut, I’d say they’re equivalent to a straight leg. For taller ladies, these jeans hit just right at a lovely crop length.

#LTKootd #LTKOver40 #LTKPetite

I’m the type of mom who enjoys looking a little polished when heading to theme parks. Comfortable shoes are a must for a full day of walking, and I absolutely love my Brooks for their comfort and breathability. This is the next butter yellow top in my growing collection—I can’t get enough of this beautiful color! It’s soft and lightweight, just right for soaking up the Florida sunshine. And of course, I always reach for my favorite Palmer shorts. The wider opening at the leg makes walking for hours so much more comfortable and enjoyable.

#LTKmomlife #LTKTravel #LTKOver40

We're starting our day at Epcot! I'm really glad I brought my lightweight sweatshirt; it was a bit chilly at the beginning. It rolls up easily and fits right into my backpack once the sun's out in full force. I've got my sunblock on, and I truly love how it provides natural protection—it's toxin-free! I find baseball caps perfect for shielding my face from the sun. I bought this one years ago, and it conveniently rolls up to store in my lounge fly bag. Of course, I always wear my prescription sunglasses to keep those strong sun beams at bay.

We're finally on vacation and heading to a lovely dinner at Narcoosie’s at the Grand Floridian in Disney World. I really love how easy and comfortable this dress is — it’s perfect for a casual yet dressy look. Made from soft T-shirt material with a little stretch, I can see myself getting a lot of use out of it. The beautiful blue and butter yellow print pairs perfectly with the navy blue, making it even more stunning.
At 5’3” tall, I am wearing 4 inch heels to keep this dress off the floor. So if you are petite like me, keep that in mind.
i’m wearing a size 4.

#LTKTall #LTKOver40 #LTKootd

I was pleasantly surprised to find brown in the spring mix this season. LOFT has taken this typically autumn shade and brought it into spring with a fresh, new twist.

My favorite Palmer shorts come in this lush cocoa Brown. I own five pairs because they’re so comfortable, and I really like the wide leg opening with the narrow waist — they’re very flattering. Plus, the stylish button pockets in the front add a nice touch.

As you can see from my posts, I’ve been wearing my butter yellow tops a lot this season. They look even better paired with Coco Brown. The cardigan is very versatile and will pair well with all you bright, warm spring colors.

#LTKootd #LTKOver40 #LTKPetite

I’ve discovered the perfect makeup shades to complement this season’s trending color, butter yellow 💛. Thrive Causemetics has been a favorite of mine for quite a while. Their shimmer sticks are super easy to apply and blend, making your morning routine so much simpler. It’s ideal for those busy days when you still want to look polished and put-together.

I've tagged the exact shades I'm wearing below. Here’s how I love to wear the shimmer eye sticks:
- Stella all over the eyelid
- Tara in the crease, blended with your finger or a cream eyeshadow brush for a seamless finish
- Sheena on the lid and under the eye
- Jade as an eyeliner
Tip:
I like to use the eyeliner brush to gently smudge the liner for a softer effect.

For my lips, I start with the Jillian lip liner to define and fill in, then finish with the Taylor lip plumping gloss for a lovely shine.

#LTKmorningroutine #LTKBeauty #LTKOver40

This spring, butter yellow is really trending and has become a favorite! I'm so happy I chose this top – it's not only quite flattering, but also super comfortable. I love how versatile it is, whether you're dressing it up or keeping it casual. I found the perfect fit in a petite small, which makes me feel great every time I wear it!

#LTKSaleAlert #LTKPetite #LTKootd

When we travel, I always make sure to pack some good, athletic socks, a multiport charger, and sunscreen. I feel happy knowing these essentials are always in our bag. Finding these three items has been a real blessing—especially the multiport charger, which has come in handy on many trips. It’s so useful when you walk into a hotel room with only one or two outlets and a bunch of devices to charge! It’s a fantastic solution.

I’ve heard wonderful things about Sky and Soul sunscreen, and I’ve been searching for a non-toxic way to protect our skin. For our upcoming trip, I thought it would be a perfect time to give it a try. It scores 98 out of 100 on the Yuka app—which I highly recommend downloading if you haven’t already. The app rates the toxicity level of beauty products and food, which is super helpful.

Athletic socks are great not just for the gym but also for lots of walking during vacations. I recently read about some great ones and decided to try them—I’m glad I did! They’re very comfortable, breathable, and I love the grips on the back of the heels to keep them from slipping into my sneakers. I’m a size 7½ shoe, so I went with sock size 8-10, and they fit perfectly.

Yay! It’s my 52nd birthday today 🎉! I had a wonderful time celebrating with my family this past weekend. We enjoyed gorgeous weather that was perfect for wearing my new Lilly Pulitzer romper. I absolutely love the playful patterns of Lilly— they really bring joy to every season. Finding a good romper can be tricky, but I always feel lucky with Lilly Pulitzer!

#LTKmomlife #LTKdayinmylife #LTKootd

This past week, we tried out a new homeschooling curriculum, and let me tell you, it’s been quite the experience! Managing fitness classes and homeschooling on some days can be quite the challenge. I teach in the mornings, so I like to keep my afternoons comfortable for homeschooling. I’m really happy I picked out this adorable, comfy top to pair with my jeans. It’s perfect for today’s mood.

I'm wearing the petite size smallcardigan which can be worn open or closed. A few of us have been styling it closed for a cozy look.

My jeans are the Rivet relaxed wide-leg style in size 27P from LOFT, and they’re such a great fit.

I'm so glad I chose this romper from Lilly Pulitzer. I'm celebrating my birthday with my family today, and it's the perfect outfit to enjoy the beautiful weather.

#LTKmomlife #LTKOver40 #LTKootd

These are some of the wonderful items many of you have added to your closet this week. The lively colors of spring are truly in the air! I absolutely love the soft, buttery yellow cardigan from LOFT and my blue jean jacket I picked up on Amazon. They’re perfect for layering during this time of year and are so on-trend in both color and style. Plus, they’re cut in a classic way that will serve you well for many years to come.
The yellow flutter sleeve top really makes me feel vibrant. It has received lots of compliments, and I’m sure yours will too!
I’m excited to see what your favorite pieces will be next week. I can’t wait to find out!

#LTKPetite #LTKSaleAlert #LTKOver40

My go-to look is a pair of jeans paired with a denim jacket and boots. You can easily dress it up with a blouse or keep it laid-back just like the T-shirt here. I’ve gotten so many wears out of these pieces. I’m really thankful I picked them up when I did.

#LTKootd #LTKmomlife #LTKOver40

Seeing so many of you switching to the Garmin watch really piqued my curiosity, so I had to try it out for myself. I absolutely love it! I never imagined I’d leave Apple since everything I own is Apple. The Garmin watch connected effortlessly with my iPhone, which was a pleasant surprise. It’s much lighter than my iWatch and fits my small wrist comfortably, making it a pleasure to wear.

I decided to make the switch mainly because of the fitness and health features. The Venu 4 was my pick. Garmin offers over 80 different activities, so you can easily customize your workouts or follow their guided routines. Plus, the battery lasts for 10 days, compared to just 24 hours on my iWatch.

While I still love my iWatch, I truly feel that the Garmin fits my lifestyle much better and keeps me motivated and on track.

Happy St. Patrick’s Day! 🍀 Feeling fun and festive in my green and gold. My green socks even feature a little gold shamrock for good luck!

#LTKootd #LTKPetite #LTKOver40

Sunday shopping is so much fun! Matching tank tops and cardigans are back in style, and I love this beautiful buttery yellow color — perfect for spring and summer. I'm wearing a small in the tank top and cardigan. I probably could have gone with a medium in the tank but the medium was a tad to big in the arms. I paired it with my wide-leg, pinstriped pants from LOFT, a tan bag, and my favorite Michael Kors flats. The belt was a lucky find, and it matches my flats perfectly, adding a little extra charm to the look. I purchased the belt in a medium to fit my mid and low rise pants.

HOC Springs, the tank and cardigan are perfect matchs to banana 💛

#LTKootd #LTKSaleAlert #LTKOver40
