Resort 2016 Trend: Ruffle Alert

Be still my ruffle-loving heart! When I opened my Women's Wear Daily yesterday and saw the fabulous pink ruffle above, I just about fell over! Gorgeous much?! One of the trends that is going to be huge in Resort 2016 collections is ruffles, and this southern belle couldn't be happier! Ruffles are that perfect combination of flirty and sweet (depending on how you accessorize) and no matter what they add an air of whimsy to any look. This is how I feel about it: #givemeallofthem

Party Perfect

Just because the holidays are over doesn't mean the parties have ended! Now that January is upon us it seems my social calendar is continuing to burst at the seams with birthday parties, engagement celebrations, and bridal showers. But what does one wear when it's still winter outside but the holidays are over?! My answer is bows + tulle of course!

Thanks to my stylish mamma, this adorable bow blouse is now a part of my closet and the perfect party shirt! Nothing says "celebrate" like bows, bows, bows! Tucking it into tulle, and belting it with yet another bow made me literally put on my dancin' shoes :) I am ready for cocktails with my girlfriends and the after-party night out. What is your party perfect outfit?
