Our lives might be flipped upside down right now and we are still getting used to our new “normal”. But that does not mean we can’t celebrate one of the most religious holidays of the year, Easter.
Here are some ideas to make it the best you can.
Away from family? Not able to see your little nieces and nephews hunt for Easter eggs? Me neither. Why not use Zoom or FaceTime to help them find all those plastic eggs filled with all the goodies. You can get all your family in on it and spend it together virtually. This way you can feel as though you are there all the while maintaining that 6 feet of social distancing.
✝️ 💟 💝 💞 🐣
Speaking of egg hunts, just you and the parents or roommates ? Make it fun and adult friendly. Hide eggs or have your roommates hide those plastic eggs with those little bottles of alcohol – alcohol is essential and should be available at your local grocery or liquor store. And then have a chugging contest after you find them all!! *Please drink responsibly*
✝️ 💟 💝 💕 🐣
Was planning on having a big Easter dinner? Order in from your favorite local restaurant. A lot of local restaurants where I am have family dinners to go. Usually you will have to order ahead to ensure you will be able to snag a dinner but it saves you from having to go to the grocery store and pray they have what you need and you support a struggling local business. Plus you get bomb food! Win – Win!
✝️ 💟 💝 💕 🐣
Want to make sure you are able to experience church even though you can’t be there in person? Check your local ministry or church’s website for a livestream. Churches all across the country are turning to livestream their service to ensure their congregation is still able to serve their Lord (or whoever your Higher Power is) during this time. Take this time to truly listen to what is being said and shared with you, to pray, meditate and allow the meaning behind Easter to overcome your heart and soul.
✝️ 💟 💝 💕 🐣
If you are able to get out to the store, for essentials of course, perhaps purchase some flowers for some of your neighbors. They are all in the same boat and unable to be with all of their loved ones and are all struggling. Flowers or a small gift will mean so much and really brighten their day.
✝️ 💟 💝 💕 🐣
Another fun idea that will spread joy and could involve the entire neighborhood is you can do a neighborhood egg hunt (with your neighbor’s permission of course). Hide eggs around your neighborhood with candy, treats, gift cards and/or money inside. It would be so much fun for the kids in your area to go on a little scavenger hunt and be able to enjoy a little treat in the process. And what is better than seeing a child full of joy during such an uncertain difficult time?
I hope this helps give you some ideas to celebrate Easter in our new “normal”. But most importantly, stay safe, stay home and stay healthy.

I might need to do a no spend month because wow I went a little ham on spending money this month. And I blame Instagram because someone posts an item I like, I want it, I got it. Instagram is dangerous, ya’ll!
Here are some of my most recent purchases in the beginning of 2020!
I am all about bodysuits, they are cute, versatile and are just great! I purchased this one off of Amazon Prime and I am in love, want to wear it constantly. Best thing is is that it is TTS (True To Size) and let’s be real, they make the girls look good
Amazon Sexy Scoop Racerback Bodysuit
Amazon Sexy Scoop Racerback Bodysuit
Bodysuit – Amazon Black cardigan – Target Denim – Calvin Klein (I honestly purchased the jeans at Costco, I know!! The ones linked are a similar pair)
I have been on a cute tee kick lately…especially ones with cute detailing like the ones below…. (photos are clickable links)
SheIn Contrast Striped Hem Dip Tee Floral Find Women’s Long Sleeve Leopard Color Black Tunic
(Photos are clickable)
These tops will look so cute with jeans or leggings (The top shirt does run short so if you want a looser longer fit, I would size up).
Count The Days Faded Rust Polka Dot Blouse
Polka dots, ruffles and off-the-shoulder? Give it all to me please! (Excuse the wrinkles, was too excited!!) This adorable top is from Pink Lily Boutique and you know it is going to be worn for all the things, once I locate my steamer. (Photo is clickable)
I pulled the trigger and joined Fabletics!!! I am not sure what made me wait for so long to do it because these leggings are absolutely amazing and I have not taken them off since I tried them on 5 minutes after receiving them. I have my first matching set (I know!!) and I could not be more in love. Are you a Fabletics VIP? What are your thoughts of the brand? Let me know down in the comments!!
Kessler Medium Impact Sports Bra Color Abyss/Blue Violet Kessler High-Waisted Strappy 7/8 Color Abyss/Blue Violet
Note: Yes, I am writing this post in my Fabletics, and I do not plan on taking them off any time soon. Not even sorry.
The year of several outfits and several more outfit repeats. We have all been there ladies (and gents) repeating outfits or single items in our wardrobe because we love them that much. This is a collection of my favorite looks in 2019, and you may see some items more than once, shoot maybe more than twice.
Let’s get started (in no particular order….)
This romper screams party and holidays and I love to bring it out when I am ready to party! I found it at a local boutique which I linked their Instagram as well as a few other choices for you.
This sweater comes in several different colors and so comfortable – went up a size to Medium for a looser fit.
Oh how I love this dress for fall and all the events and seasons!!! It also has pockets!! Purchased at Target but could not find it on the site but linking similar dresses here (Most similar), here , here.
Photo is clickable for bikini
Aloha! Hawaii in December means bikinis, beaches and brews (or margaritas)!! Had so much fun in Hawaii, especially with my Amazon high waisted striped bikini and this fun bikini cover I found while shopping Downtown LA linked more here , here, here, here, Sunnies were purchased in Hawaii at H&M similar here, here, here earrings are Designs by Donna and I do not have a link (my and my mom’s jewelry business, I am working on getting website done!)
Everything here is Target, except for the white OTS sweater (Photo of white sweater is a clickable link to Amazon) and unfortunately, cannot find a single item online. The black top in the top right photo is actually a fitted black dress with buttons (!!!), almost exact dress here, some similar dresses here
Faux leather jacket is from the Target x WhoWhatWear collaboration and is not available online. Most similar one here, and it is Levi’s!! Similar ones here, here, here.
Guys! I almost passed this skirt up can you believe it? Actually…I almost passed it up for a third time…I saw it the first time and was not feeling it, the second time I saw it and saw it was on clearance but was not sold, the third time was the leopard print charm and I had to have it. Now it is a main staple in my wardrobe and I try and wear it everywhere!! Sorry that I cannot find the exact one on Target.com, but perhaps you are able to find it in your local store?! Here are some similar skirts: here, here, here, here, here.
Birthday girl!! Had to do an impromptu iphone photo shoot in this super cute striped halter backless romper post birthday boozy lunch, it’s a requirement! Found this piece at F21 but of course, it is not on the website but did find some similar ones. Here, here, here
Smile – life is beautiful!! The clutch is from Designs by Donna
I never met a full length mirror I didn’t like and peep that iced coffee in the back. This jumpsuit is a few years old and I have linked some similar ones: here, here, here, here, and here.
So many clothes, so little time. Thank you so much for reading and following along, and if you do shop my links, there are some I receive commission off of so I could not appreciate it more. Thank you again and may your 2020 be oh so stylish and fashionable!
Labor Day Weekend is almost here and it brings with it the last unofficial weekend of summer and all the sales!
I don’t know about you all but a three day weekend filled with bbqs, pools, white claw and all the sales makes me so excited. And you don’t even have to go far to find out where all the sales are. I GOT YOU!

I am an Old Navy fan, but I wasn’t for a while, I felt their pieces were too basic and uniform for me but I was wrong. They have some really cute pieces, especially for athleisure and denim.
So I have gathered some of my favorite picks, both pieces I own and pieces that are in my wishlist.
Day Two: Wednesday – Attended with my mom to see Clay Walker unfortunately did not get any photos except for about two. I did have the great opportunity to be live on the local 209 Magazine‘s livestream at the fair, I am friends with a lot of the team members of this amazing magazine so that was a lot of fun.
Shout out to Loud Eddie and the entire 209 Magazine crew
Waiting for the legend Clay Walker – he put on one of the best shows at the fair in years
Dress: Old (Purchased at Target years ago) Similar here
Boots: Purchased at a boot shop in Dallas, Texas – similar ones here, here, here
Third and final night: This was the second to the last night. I was pretty exhausted but managed to get it together for the food and 98 Degrees
The best 10 days inn my little big town are finally here. The county fair is in town with all the fried food you can think of, free (with price of admission) concerts including the amazing girl group that shaped so much of my teenage years, TLC, country legend Clay Walker and even 98 Degrees. You know you are getting up there in age when artists you used to listen to when you were younger are performing at your county fair. But anyway, on to the good stuff. The clothes!!
One thing I love to do at the fair is people watch, especially to see what everyone is wearing, or not wearing, in the case of where I live because usually the weather is pretty hot during the fair so the less the better.
This year I have my eye on off-the-shoulder tops with distressed denim shorts or sexy skinny jeans and a cute pair of wedges, cowboy boots or even sandals. Although I recommend not going the sandal route because you are basically walking around in dirt the entire time.
Also, cute, simple loose dresses are on my radar as well. Something easy that will go with my red cowboy booties I picked up in Dallas, Texas! I have yet to actually go shopping for my outfits for fair nights (I am planning on going at least twice!), but here are some options I absolutely love.
I will be sharing by retailer and will also be including some local boutiques which are shoppable via Instagram.
Yes, I am officially 35. I know, I know, I do not look it and I take that as a compliment because it means I have a young spirit and I am all about that mmkay? No but seriously, I had a lowkey but exciting birthday! The weekend before my birthday I went to San Diego for a quick whirlwind trip for the Run Rock N Roll San Diego half marathon. To learn more about that race, click here . I made a new friend, raced my heart out and had a blast!
The week of my birthday was pretty busy with the end of the regular school year, my mom having surgery and the start of working summer school. Whew! But I was able to have a few hours to celebrate with my girlfriends with some food and brews at my favorite spot in Turlock, Dustbowl Brewery and then walked around downtown and got some amazing photos. My friend Summer is a photographer/makeup artist/hair stylist and an amazing person! Every time we hang out it turns into a photo shoot which I love because I used to model. Here are some shots from that day.
Jumpsuit is Forever 21 and you will not believe how much I paid for it! So I was looking for either a backless romper or a two-piece crop and pant outfit. So obviously I was so excited to find this romper at Forever21, even more happy when I found out it was on clearance….why no one had already snatched it up I have no clue..guess it was meant for me. But I have not gotten to the best part. So not only was it on clearance, it was an EXTRA 50% OFF!!!! Yes!!! I purchased this romper for $7.50 if you can believe it!!! I’m all about the deals and saving money so I was beyond elated!! (I unfortunately could not locate the romper online, however I will link similar items below).
I love these ladies! No matter what was going on in their personal lives they still made sure to come out for my birthday and help me celebrate. Find you friends like this and you will never be alone again.
But this wasn’t all. On the day of my birthday I worked in the morning and then just hung out at home until it was time for dinner with my parents. But I did receive these oh so cute flowers from my girl Dana – she had the flowers shaped like a puppy and the resemblance to my Bambam is uncanning.
Yes, I wore the same romper from lunch with my friends on my birthday. Hey, it was two days apart okay? The photo in the purple romper was a couple days later with my favorite human ever, my niece Kendall Grace.
For dinner we went to a popular downtown restaurant, 10 East and enjoyed some happy hour drinks and pizza. I have been on a fancy schmancy pizza kick lately. Pizza Hut just isn’t cutting it anymore.
Per tradition, my father and I went to the Giants game. I was so excited because it was a Giants vs. Dodgers game and if you know baseball then you know this is one of the biggest rivalries in baseball. Although we were surrounded by Dodgers fan (at Oracle “AT&T” Park) and we lost, I had a blast. We stopped at Red’s Java House, there may be java in the name, but I did not see a single person drinking any kind of java, it was all brews and booze. My pops and I decided to try the paloma tequila cocktail and guys, I found my new summer drink. Grapefruit, tequila and all the fixings, it was so delicious. I also had a burger on a whole roll of authentic San Francisco french bread and guys, it. was. amazing. Alllll the carbs!!!
I wish I could say that we ate and drank our way through the game but if you know me, you know there was no food eaten, especially after this colossal of a sandwich.
All in all I had a blast of a birthday, it was more lowkey then I was used to but was able to spend it with those I love and isn’t that what it was all about?
Hi there! My birthday is coming up on June 7th and I just wanted to share my Amazon wish list with you all. Clothes, shoes, gadgets, summer fun. You don’t have to buy me any gifts but if you want to…check out my birthday list on Amazon!
I am honestly never ready, for anything. I am the type of girl who has to put her makeup on in the car, trying to find the perfect shoes when I should have been out the door already, and just never has anything to wear but I always show up with an iced coffee in hand, I consider it extremely important to my brand, or style or whatever.
I should have started this blog long time ago but you guessed it, I wasn’t ready. But with some help from the Queen herself, Rachel Hollis, I finally decided it was time. It was time to share my beautifully curated closet of the perfect basics and statement pieces and the perfect shoe for every outfit and every occasion. Ha not even close. I have a day job but I am smart with my money when it comes to clothes. I love a good sale and I will try to figure out how to wear old pieces new ways in an attempt to spice up my wardrobe. My style is all over the place. One day I look like I spent hours in the gym when in a way I did, except it was outside hitting the pavement on one of my runs as I train for my next half or full marathon or I am casual chic, jeans, a cute sweater or button down thermal and a boot then there are those days that no matter where I am going I want to be decked out. Dress, heels, hair done, full face of makeup….I go all out. You honestly have no idea what you are going to get with me, which keeps it fun don’t you think?
So this is what this blog will be, a collection of my outfits, what I am loving at the moment and all of the things! I am so excited to start this journey with you, my readers, that I babbled on for way too long but thank you so so much for following along and reading, it means the absolute world to me, it really truly does. Besides, I am just a California girl trying to make it in a state that is just swarming with amazing and beautiful bloggers so I am just very appreciative.
Follow along on my style journey on Instagram, @almostneverready and feel free to send me an email or DM so we can chat and become friends.
Thanks again and here is to hopefully 5 more minutes to get that eyeliner just right.
