Today was as typical as it gets for a day with my family. A day of “relaxing” and getting nails done quickly turned into an all day, spontaneous chase for dresses for a wedding next weekend. This meant we had to drive about an hour out of town, meaning I had a meager 10 minutes to get ready. This is always a fun challenge. With everyone making me hustle, I threw together a look that was made to run errands all day, and still managed to give my favorite combination of a little edge and sass.

Today was absolutely stunning and quite a pleasant switch from yesterday! The sun decided to come out and that made it perfect to wear one of my favorite, forgotten accessories: my two-toned floppy hat. Today was a perfect fit for it because it wasn’t a brutal scorcher, but it was a little windy, so that made fashion savvy look a little difficult. I’ve had this hat for almost three years now and I always forget it exists in my closet. I personally think it looks more suitable for fall, so I typically decide against wearing it, but lesson learned today because I received a lot of compliments, so that was fun. Side note: hats are entirely more fun than sunglasses. Another side note: when you truly feel like you have nothing to wear, revisit the back of your closet.

Most days, I can take on the day without giving in to the negativity. Today, was not one of those days. Like everyone else, I have my fair share of “bad” days. Of course, I try to handle every situation I can, but sometimes, you need to give in and just accept some things you are not in control of. We will have bad days, because we are human. Nothing really triggered this lousy day, it just started unlike I wanted/planned, plus it’s Monday. So there was only one thing I could think to do to avoid a meltdown…break out my favorite pants.

I love days when a good song is stuck in my head. Fortunately, today this song was “White Blank Page” by Mumford and Sons. This song is definitely in my top 5 favorite songs ever (and it’s incredible live.) When I woke up to this song today, I took it as a sign to wear my Mumford and Sons t-shirt I bought at their concert this time last year. I will always remember that night because it was one of the best i’ve ever had and it all last minute. Honestly though, how can you beat awesome music with one of your best friends? You can’t.(Thanks again, Travis, and ps…we’re going again!!!)

Today started by finally meeting one of the most handsome little boys…ever! Little Eli is as perfect as it gets. He has the sweetest little angelic face framed with the most gorgeous auburn hair. First impression: it was love at first sight. I, on the other hand, wanted to make a great first impression to this little bundle, and I know he won’t remember meeting me (or gripping onto my finger the entire time I was holding him) but there will be pictures, and I want him to remember that his Aunt Siara had some serious style, and you never have a second chance to make a first impression.

Welcome to my new and improved website…finally! (Insert HUGE freakout!) This transition has been such a bittersweet process, but I am truly so happy with the outcome that not even a little rain could spoil it…FYI that is why my hair looks a hot mess in this photo.
I wanted a more mature look and feel to this blog, because this is something that is truly meaningful to me, and I hope something that gives you a little inspiration each time you visit! This post is going to be dedicated to the future, and new beginnings. Speaking of, one of my best friends welcomed her second child to the world today (can’t wait to meet you, Eli)! (Insert even BIGGER freakout) Life is truly such a beautiful thing.

Today was a nice surprise for a couple reasons. 1. It was basically summer outside meaning I could finally break out my shorts (hopefully for good). 2. I could FINALLY wear this tank top as it was purposed, and 3. The Cowboys did NOT, I repeat did NOT draft #JohnnyFootball (at least in the first round).
Ok, back to business.

Tonight is my first time attending a country concert, unless you count Taylor Swift, but I do agree with that community…she’s really not country in my opinion. Nevertheless, I am pretty excited to see Jake Owen. Because I do not consider myself to be country in the slightest, I decided to put my own spin on this style.
To me, when I think of country, I think of plaids/flannels, jean jackets and cowboy boots. So, I decided to wear a dress with a plaid jacket. A note to everyone out there reading this, this is the first time I have ever worn this jacket in the two years I have had it. It really is cute, I just put it my closet and kind of forgot about it but it is perfect for tonight…so don’t throw pieces out because you haven’t seen them in a while.

Today marks the 10th anniversary for the movie “Mean Girls.” So, today’s post is dedicated to all the mean girls in our lives, and who to replace them with.
In a group of girlfriends, there is always bound to be at least one mean girl. Whether she’s the one without a filter, the one who holds nothing back, or the worst, the one who says everything behind everyone’s back and plays every side, these girls exist in EVERY circle. If you don’t think so, then you haven’t discovered she’s talking about you yet.

Today it hit high of 72 degrees! (insert praise emoji) And although it didn’t last for long before the dark clouds overtook the sky, it was just long enough to enjoy the rest of the day. (Even though my nephews were given their first raincoats today and I all I wanted to do was dance in it with them.)
This is one of my favorite transitions for fashion. I love cooler days where I can wear a tank top or like today, a romper and pair it with an over-shirt of some sort and of course finish it with my favorite combat boots.
