Date Night: Glitter Stars Outfit

March 8, 2018 By Melanie No Comments

Glitter Stars 5

It’s almost the weekend and I don’t know about you but that typically means I’m planning a fun date night with my man! With Winter still being in full swing (we literally just experienced “Thundersnow” yesterday) my Spring attire sadly can’t make it’s debut. Thankfully there are a few fun ways to layer up and achieve a very date friendly and fun outfit for whatever you have in store.

When I came across this mesh top sprinkled with glittery stars at H&M a few weeks ago I knew I needed to have it. Not only is it super affordable but it looks so cute layered over a bodysuit and will be something that I can bust out no matter what the season.

I paired it with one of my go-to black bodysuits from Urban Outfitters which sadly is not in stock anymore. If you’re looking for something similar you can try THIS one from UO or THIS one from American Eagle. 

Since it’s still freezing outside, I threw on my new favorite black coat from Zara. I bought it specifically for a black tie wedding I attended last month but it’s perfect for every day use as well. I love the faux fur detail and sleek design. It’s one of those pieces that looks 10x more expensive and lux than it actually is. I love how the whole look came together when paired with a pair of black skinny jeans and my black & white heels from Banana Republic. The white really stands out and creates more of a statement when paired with an all black outfit. Since my heels are no longer available (sorry guys!) you can shop THESE white pumps from Sam Edelman or THIS one from Aldo.

Now that I’ve transitioned from working a 9-5 job as a Digital Strategist to being a full-time blogger I’ll have a lot more time on my hands to bring regular posts your way, including these short and sweet style posts! Look out for a new one coming your way next week. 🙂

Spend a cozy morning filled with a few of my fav feel good rituals that help set a positive tone for the day 🤎 … and since my day really starts around 6am with bbg, I really cherish this “me time” during her first nap

You all know I love my “move, nourish, self-care” formula for mindful morning routines and this time, that looked like:

✨making my bed (the love for gingham continues) 
✨a BIG second pumpkin spice cake coffee topped with cinnamon in my Luke’s Diner mug 
✨B and I baked a homemade pumpkin cinnamon sourdough loaf together (my first time!) and it is sooo good
✨ never skipping the skincare essentials, especially a chilled balm for these tired mama eyes 
✨ a chocolate brown matching set is def the vibe this season 
✨ squeezed in a 30 min barre sculpt workout and it was spicy 

I hope you all are able to get offline and do a few things to fill your cup today ❤️🧸

One thing motherhood has taught me? Life becomes instantly sweeter when you learn to stop measuring days by how 𝘱𝘳𝘰𝘥𝘶𝘤𝘵𝘪𝘷𝘦 you are and focus instead on how 𝘱𝘳𝘦𝘴𝘦𝘯𝘵 you can be 🤎

As the seasons start to shift, it’s a great time
As the seasons start to shift, it’s a great time to welcome a little more hygge (a danish concept that is all about creating a quality of coziness and comfort) into our lives 🤎🧸

The focus shifts away from “things” and leans more into small rituals that make you feel grounded, content and present in the moment 

Here are 6 ways to add more hygge into your daily routines:

✨create cozy morning rituals✨

Instead of rushing into the day, try adding one or two elements to your mornings that feel a bit more calm and intentional. For example you can play soft music while you get ready or light your favorite candle while sipping on your coffee ☕️ 

✨make meals feel special ✨

Make mealtime extra cozy and mindful by putting away electronics, using your favorite plates & glassware, or making dishes that evoke a sense of nostalgia and childhood comfort 

✨ add touches of warmth & softness✨

Keep extra blankets nearby, switch to lamps or candlelight in the evening, and rotate in seasonal accents to make your home feel more inviting 

✨bring nature inside✨

Hygge is all about being connected to the natural world — so open up the window to let the crisp air in, buy yourself a seasonal bouquet, or use pumpkins to decorate your home 

✨make time for connection✨

Life is all about who we share it with and cozy season is a great excuse to meet your friend for a PSL, have more family dinners, and host comforting gatherings with loved ones 

✨embrace slow evenings✨

Create a sense of calm before bed by creating slow, intentional rituals. Make a cup of tea, read a book or do a calming hobby, and put on comfy loungewear 

How are you adding a little more coziness into your routine this autumn?

I don’t know who needs to hear this but cozy hobbies are 100% the self-care we all need in this busy season of life 🎨 

I’ll be sharing some of my personal favorites all season long and the first up are these adorable watercolor books… which are basically the adult version of coloring

They’re the perfect activity to unwind, get creative and intentionally get off your phone 😉. Bonus — each page includes a step by step so they are very beginner friendly AND they only take about 10-15 min. Perfect for squeezing in when you’re short on time but need a min to just “be” 

Let me know if you’re excited to see more cozy crafts & hobby ideas for fall and the upcoming holiday season! I have lots of new things I want to try and can’t wait to share 🤎
