Happy Wednesday!

I wore this outfit in Estes Park, Colorado while I was there last weekend! I love this look because it's effortlessly chic and so comfortable. I've had this faux leather skirt in my closet for a while, but it hasn't been warm enough to wear it until now! I paired it with a printed tee, my new favorite black heels and my go-to statement necklace. The necklace pulls the whole look together by giving it texture and a contrast in color. I got this stunning piece from Accessory Jane. If you're looking for beautiful jewelry, but don't want to break the bank - this is your place! They have so many affordable and adorable necklaces, bracelets, earrings & accessories.  Plus, if you use the coupon SIMPLYDUO25 you can get 25% off! Happy Shopping :)

Happy Monday!

This is the first (of hopefully, many) travel destination posts to share our fun experiences with you! I spent the past long-weekend in Estes Park, Colorado with family to celebrate my sweet grandma's 80th birthday! I thought it would be fun to show some of the places we went to on this trip!

-Gem Lake: 1.7 mile hike (one-way) to the top of the mountain where the lake is located. It's much easier coming down, but definitely worth the steep climbing to the top to see the serene lake views, as well as beautiful views of surrounding Estes Park.
-The Stanley Hotel: popular tourist location- it's fun to walk around and look at.
-Sombrero Ranches Horses Stable: fun for families - with beautiful views along the horse paths. We had a nice & helpful guide, Sarah, who led us on our 1 hour trail ride.
-Lily Lake: awesome views with a flat 1 mile trail surrounding it - great for running!
-Downtown Estes Park: there are lots of cute shops to walk around and browse through. Stopping for either candy carmel apples, ice-cream, taffy, carmel corn (or all of the above) is a must!

Red Maxi Dress

DRESS: BCBG - old (Similar & Similar) // SHOES: Target  // RING: J.Crew

Happy Tuesday! Hope everyone had a great Memorial Day Weekend! It was thunder-storming all weekend, so with the exception of brunch with my cousins, the days were mostly spent inside or at the mall - I know, it sounds just awful, right? :) However, I was able to wear this maxi dress one afternoon when it was briefly sunny over the weekend! Can you tell I'm obsessed with maxis?! They're just so comfortable and chic! I love the bold color and the fit of this dress and I can't wait to wear it on repeat all throughout the summer.

Woven Pink Dress

Happy Wednesday!

If you can't tell by our recent posts, Amy and I are a littttle obsessed with the boutique- Milk & Honey (located in Dallas, TX!). It was our #1 place to stop at while we were in Dallas because it's such a great place to find adorable pieces that you can't find anywhere else! They don't have a ton of options online, as compared to in the store- where they have racks on racks of colorful, trendy outfits just calling your name. I was drawn to this pink dress because of it's woven texture, cutouts and flare. It's so unique and unlike any other dress I have! And it's comfy too! I've worn this dress to church, graduation parties and a family brunch so far and I plan on wearing it many more times, as well. Milk & Honey also has a ton of fun accessories in their store- so I picked up this pretty necklace there too!

Black & White Printed Maxi

DRESS: Milk & Honey Boutique // SHOES: Target 

It's finally Friday! Yay! I'm so ready for a nice, relaxing weekend. So the story behind this maxi dress is that I was at brunch with some friends and I noticed this girl sitting at the table next to us, wearing the cutest maxi. I loved the black and white print with the cut-out neckline and back. It just looked so effortlessly chic! I kept making all my friends glance at it and told them "I wonder where she got that dress, I need it!" Unfortunately, she left before I could ask her. So after brunch, we decided to do a little shopping and headed to one of our all-time favorite boutiques - Milk & Honey. And guess what?! As I was browsing through the racks- I found it! I mean come on, that's what I call fate. I bought it immediately and have been wearing it non-stop ever since!
