My youngest daughter has been rocking the cutest monochromatic outfits lately and she has totally inspired me.  It's usually a lot of gray, which is funny because she loves color - but I love the looks she puts together (she's only 8!).  I usually love a pop of color, so I'm not typically into the monochromatic look, but wanted to try out a few ideas, and I have to say - I loved them.  The gray palette is so pretty mixed with some blacks, but would also look amazing with some winter whites. 

I started with my favorite pair of gray jeans and a henley - that I'm obsessed with - and then layered pieces on top.  All pieces are linked at the bottom, or you can always reach out to me directly for any links - happy to help!  As a reminder - I get a small commission for any link you use to purchase items - I really appreciate you shopping through my links :)

I'd love to hear from you!  Let me know what you think about these looks.  I'd also love to know if you're into a monochromatic look and what colors you prefer!

This faux leather jacket is one of my faves!  It's such a great Amazon find and goes with so many looks.  I love it paired with the gray look to add a bit more texture to the outfit.  I love the combat boot trend right now - these boots are so comfirtable, but are also so cute!  Love the fur detail.  These are from a local boutique La Mere Clothing and Goods.  Use this link to get $15 off your purchase.  I've also linked some similar option below!

This poncho is one of my go-to's for when I'm traveling (I cant wait to travel again!!).  It's an old one, but I linked some very similar options below.  It's nice to use as a blanket on a flight if it gets cold and can be wrapped around as a scarf - I love the versatility.  If you're traveling somewhere warm, it's also great to throw on at night if it gets a little chilly instead of having to lug a coat with you. 

I love this hat too!!  Another great Amazon find that comes in so many cute colors.  The gray is such a nice neutral - not as boring as plain black, but still versatile enough to wear with so many outfits.  I also have the red one that's a lot of fun and it's so affordable that it's nice to have options!!

These booties are some of my faves from Target - their really chic and the heel height is low so they really comfortable.  I have them in leopard print as well and those have lasted a very long time.

This one is the most comfy and probably how most of us our living lives these days!  These sneaks are SO good - under $20 and I love the leopard print detail.  I've had these for about a year and they've held up remarkably well.  

​This scarf is from Etsy and transforms into the cutest crisscross sweater - I love something that works double duty!  It's also SO warm and cozy.

​Summer Capsule Wardrobe
The unofficial start of Summer is finally here and I’m SO psyched! Summer is my favorite season - give me hot weather every day of the week!

Anyway, I wanted to share a capsule wardrobe for Summer. “What the heck is a capsule wardrobe”, you say? It’s a set of basic pieces that work together that you can add more trendy items to. A capsule wardrobe allows you to invest in some essential pieces that should last a long time. Here are my picks for this season (click on the images to buy - affiliate links used):

Enjoy and Happy Summer!!
