First impression of this lavender Petal & Pup dress… I LOVE it. 💜

And the petite-girl win? It’s actually floor length on me at 5’0” with no hemming needed. 🙌🏼

I’m also wearing an in-between size and would recommend going up one size if you’re between sizes.

The color, floral print, fit, and length are all giving exactly what I wanted from a wedding guest dress. ✨

The Bob Bend, but make it easy. 🤍

This takes very little effort and gives your hair that soft, undone bend without needing a complicated technique.

I’m using my BaByliss curling iron + + K18 Heat Bounce + NAVY Haircare texture spray. Both are linked, along with my Old Navy tank (TTS) and Petal & Pup denim skirt. ✨

Styled this Walmart find with wedges + a taupe Kate Spade bag for an easy elevated look. And yes… those are actually shorts under the skirt.

Sunday Leo energy 🌸✨

The ASTR the Label Bailey dress is one of those dresses that just makes you feel pretty the second you put it on. I love getting to show it outside because you can see the dress move a little differently—and the sitting view gives you a better idea of the fit, too.

These are even prettier in person. 🎀

I grabbed the Kitsch Ruched Satin Scrunchies because I wanted something soft and pretty for pulling my hair back 🩷 especially at bedtime without the tugging and breakage I can get from regular hair ties.

They also make a version specifically for fine hair, which I love.

Just a quick look at the quality and the gorgeous satin texture because sometimes you need to see the pretty. 🤍

A navy dress you can actually put on and go. 💙

This Petal & Pup smocked dress is true to size, and the best part for my 5’0” petite girls? No hemming needed. 🙌🏻

The smocked bodice makes it comfortable and flattering, while the navy makes it so easy to dress up or down. Perfect for summer, date nights, church, brunch, or those “I need a dress but don’t want to think about it” days. 😂

First impression…I was hoping I’d love this dress, and it did not disappoint. 💜

The floral print, feminine silhouette, and flowy fit make it such a pretty option for weddings, bridal showers, brunch, or any special occasion. It’s one of those dresses that feels effortlessly polished the moment you put it on.

I’ve linked the dress along with my accessories so you can shop the complete look.

This puff sleeve top is one of those easy pieces you can throw on with jeans, shorts, or white denim and instantly look put together. The feminine sleeves add the prettiest touch, and it’s lightweight enough to wear now while transitioning into fall.

✨ Sizing note: It runs big, so I recommend sizing down for the best fit.

A little romance, a little denim, a little emotional damage. 😂📚

See Me by Tella Alvarez was this week’s Weekend Read Romance Edition, and while the book may have emotionally wrecked me a little… I do really love this outfit. 😂

Puff-sleeve top + Levi’s = easy, cute, done.

Petite-Friendly Top That Runs Big | Size Down One

If you’re thinking about grabbing this top, my biggest tip is to size down one size for the best fit. It has a relaxed, oversized fit, so going down gives it a more flattering look while still feeling comfortable.

I love styling it with denim shorts now and jeans later for an easy summer-to-fall transition. It’s a versatile staple that can be dressed up with wedges or kept casual with sneakers or sandals.

Lunch plans called for a little polka-dot moment. 🤍

A dress, shorts underneath because #petitegirlproblems 😂, wedges, my favorite LV, and a smile.

Sometimes the easiest outfits are the ones that just feel like you. 🩷

Can you wear black to a wedding? 🖤 Absolutely.

This French Connection dress is such a pretty option for cocktail attire or an evening wedding. The square neckline keeps it feeling feminine, while statement accessories make the whole look feel polished.

I’m wearing an XS — true to size, zipped easily, and the zipper feels really nice quality.

Dress details below.

Wedding Guest that’s dreamy, and petite friendly. I’m 5’0 tall, and dresses for weddings, galas, and events have been hard in the past. This didn’t need any alterations at all.

Do your curls actually last? 👀

If you have fine hair, the way you use a clamp curling iron can make a BIG difference. Instead of starting at the ends and rolling everything up, try starting at the root and working your way down the section.

Clamp → release → move down → clamp again.

This helps create lift at the root while building the curl through the length of your hair — without loading your hair down with a ton of product.

For this look, I used:
✨ BaByliss curling iron
✨ Color Wow Style On Steroids Texture Spray

✨ Color Wow Texas Hold’em Big Hold Hairspray

I’ve been using the Texas Hold’em hairspray for a few weeks now, and I’m really liking it — especially for our Texas humidity. 🙌🏼

Fine hair approved. Minimal products, maximum bounce.

Everything I used is linked below. 🤍

Save this for your next curl day!

Hi! 👋🏻 A quick little chat before I head out for errands. 💕

I’m sharing a few beauty favorites I’ve been reaching for lately — including the NYX Marshmellow Setting Spray, Anua PDRN, and Anua Azelaic Acid. The PDRN spray especially surprised me with how good it made my makeup look!

And because apparently I can’t chat without giving you the outfit details 😂

Gel powder to take away the oil… because cakey isn’t the look. 👀

I love that this isn’t a traditional powder — it helps take down shine without leaving that heavy, cakey finish.

And yes, the gummy bear lip gloss is still a favorite. 💕 Shade: [insert shade]

My Go-To Short Hair Styling Routine

How to Get the Perfect Face-Framing Curls on Short Hair

If your face-framing pieces never seem to fall quite right, this simple curling technique makes all the difference. I use a small curling iron, set each curl with clips while it cools, then finish with a lightweight texture spray for soft movement and lasting volume.

I’m linking everything I used, including my favorite texture spray, curling iron, heat-resistant carbon comb, clips, denim skirt, and Old Navy tank top.

Brows that last at the pool? YES. 🙌🏻

If your brows disappear the second you hit the water, this is one summer beauty find I’m keeping: Revlon ColorStay Micro Easy Liner.

It gives me an easy, defined brow that holds up for pool days without making my routine complicated. ☀️

And for the rest of the pool-day look, I’m also loving this Hurley swim cover-up — easy to throw on over a swimsuit and go.

Pool day essentials: long-lasting brow makeup + an easy swim cover-up. 🩷

Little Luxuries ☕📖 My Cozy Closet Sanctuary + Romance Reader favorite.

My closet has become my little sanctuary. As moms and women, I feel like we’re always taking care of everyone else, so I love creating little moments that are just for me. A cozy outfit, my Kindle, a good romance read, and my favorite drink are my version of a little luxury. ☕📖🤍
Jumpsuit runs big. Go down 1 size and if you’re 5’ you will need to have this hemmed.

The brow gel I didn’t expect to love 🤍

I’ve been trying the NYX Brow Gel and I’m honestly impressed with how it keeps my brows looking polished and in place without feeling heavy.
