My Favorite Ripped Jeans - Affordable Spring Essentials!

Although our weather has been completely wacko in Portland with alternating snow days mixed with days of sun and blue skies, I’ve decided to style more Spring looks for you all since I am impatient and ready for the season to change over already! This look in particular is versatile because it can be layered with a light jacket for chillier days like I did here. These shoes are also pretty covering and not completely full out warm weather footwear. Speaking of these shoes, I’ve had them for going on three years now and each year they sell out at the start of the year so if you’ve had your eye on them I wouldn’t wait! I also ordered these more affordable shoes this year that are very similar and just as comfortable, for those of you that aren’t ready to splurge.

This top is under $20 and the softest button up I own! I am always a sucker for stripes and for the price I couldn’t pass this one up. Also you’ve heard me rave about these jeans so much, a lot of you have picked them up for yourself as well! They are super affordable, perfectly high waisted and super stretchy. The color/style I’m wearing is called “Make it or Break it” I want them in every wash!

That little donut thief! She ate one whole glazed donut and two donut holes while we were at this cafe, can you guess if she napped this day?!

Hope you all have an amazing weekend ahead!

The Best Casual LBD + Snake Print Shoes

I shared a sweet coffee date with my little one at the cutest cafe, Figlia Americana, in downtown Portland this past weekend. We shared avocado toast and enjoyed each other’s company while soaking in the calm and very Instagram-able atmosphere. Stella ordered a “coffee” for herself (8 oz milk in a tiny coffee cup lol) and I sipped on a latte, she made friends with all of the people working on their laptops and said please and thank you to the baristas as she asked for milk refills. I can’t believe she’ll be 2 in July.

Little Black Dress Casual Outfit Style by Julianne 2019

Dress // Denim Jacket // Shoes // Hat // Necklace

I wore this mid-calf length tank dress that I bought for summer, but couldn’t wait to wear it and now after giving a test drive, I’m ordering it in two more colors. It is SO comfortable and I see it being extremely versatile for year-round wear… not to mention it’s under 20 bucks! I also debuted my new favorite shoes. It took me some time to find the best snake print booties but I am so glad I didn’t settle, these booties are so comfy and just dressy enough to snaz up my (usually) casual ensembles.
