Kayce Hughes Goodman Dress

I visited the Kayce Hughes store when I visited Nashville, TN in March for the SEC basketball tournament.  Kayce Hughes has the most adorable clothes and accessories.  I picked up this green dress, this top and this skirt while I was there.  I wore this dress for Easter Sunday and again yesterday for church.  It is so comfortable and easy to pair with a fun cardigan.  I love that it has pockets and the ties on the sleeves make it a prefect go-to summer sundress.

shades of green

Green is one of my favorite colors for fall and winter.  It is dark enough to be perfect for cooler days, but bright and colorful enough to be warn in Florida when it's 80+ degrees in November.

We Can All Make a Difference

Happy Earth Day!

 via 

We can all make a difference, it's pretty easy.  Just take a few minutes to think about the small ways you can change your day-to-day activities to help our planet.  I have started taking green bags to Target, Publix and the drugstore (if I forget, I ask for paper or tell them to pack as much as possible into one bag).  Lilly Pulitzer carries some adorable market bags. (With bags that cute, how can you not remember to use them!?)  The plastic bags that do end up coming home with me are re-used as trash bags in my bathroom, which saves both money and plastic bags.  

Another way to reduce your energy use is to get in the habit of turning your air up or off when you're not home.  This seems like a no-brainer, but a lot of people forget to do this.  I like sleeping with the air really low and I often turn my fan on too... but, I have gotten in the habit of turning my air up to 78 or higher and turning off my fan first thing in the morning.  This has greatly reduced my electricity bill and I feel like I am doing a small part to help the environment. 

Over the past few years, I have gotten super OCD about recycling.  I recycle everything possible... papers I no longer need at the end of the semester, cereal boxes, soda cans, the plastic containers that fruit comes in... pretty much anything cardboard, paper or plastic can be recycled!  Some cities are kinda picky about what they take and don't take, but if something has the little recycle logo on the bottom of it, then it usually counts!  Do us all a favor and think twice before you throw something in the trash!

Lastly, a great way to help the world around us is to go see the Disney Nature film, Chimpanzee.  If you go see it in theaters this week, Disney will donate to the Jane Goodall Institute in your honor.  This is a great way to unwind and take a break from the craziness of the end of the semester and you can feel great about taking a break for a good cause. 

Check out the trailer, it's so cute! 

What ways are you helping the environment?

green.

Since today is St. Patty's day I figured I would talk about my favorite green items that I have found recently.  I personally don't have a lot of green in my wardrobe.  I have a few dresses and skirts that have green on them, but overall I don't have many green items in my closet.  This is for no particular reason.  In fact, I love green.  If it's the right shade for your skin tone than I think green is a beautiful color to wear.  I love bright emerald green or lime green for the spring and summer and dark forest green is a great option of winter.  Although, I tend to worry about looking like a Christmas tree if I wear green during December...  But, I do think green, when paired with the right outfit, can be a great color to wear to many occasions.
