PHAM life

Social media, such a large sea of; inspiration, confusion, people, travel, ideas, brands and products...the list could go on forever. Through blogging I'm learning (or trying to) the ins and outs, just call me "Nemo". Some platforms I've never even heard of, some I want nothing to do with, and others are completely my jam. 

In other words, it's kind of like dating...I think that's a fair analogy. And I think Instagram has become "the one" for me. I have met so many amazing bloggers through Insta, and yes, we are on a nickname basis. I feel like I owe my life to that app, because I wouldn't be where I am right now in ALL aspects of my life if it weren't for Insta, weird right?

If you're not aware, there's an option to DM (direct message) on there. Some people get this, some don't, so I'm trying to do my best to explain. Anyways...DM is how a lot of bloggers connect with other bloggers, and how bloggers connect with brands.

P.H.A.M ... the moment I landed on their Instagram I loved their feed, I browsed their entire page, which then lead me to their website. They are about living life freely, pride themselves on quality, and don't just work with anyone. ALL things that I stand for, the relationship was just meant to be.

Another relationship that was meant to be...me, hats, and overalls. I just think a hat does so much for any outfit, and it hides my hair that hasn't been washed for a solid week. So all in all, it's a great thing.

VB x Target Collection

I do my best to try to live in the now. But, I think it's also important to have those things in the future that give you something to look forward to, too. These things definitely help me get through the mundane. Not that my life is mundane by any means, but we all have those days. At least I think we do? As with anything in life, balance is key! 

I'm about to get real honest with you and admit I'm working to find my balance. I feel at times as though I have so much going on in my head I get lost in my own thoughts, and my to do's that I'm not fully present. I hate myself for this! My lifestyle has become so "go"....there are days I feel like I can't catch my breath. I get so consumed in "to do's" that I've forgotten important things, and it's embarrassing to admit all of this. I've realized lately that I busy myself to a fault and will fully admit balance is something I struggle with. So, my question to you is, how do you slow down? I need tips, you guys!

Anyways, back to looking forward to things... The Victoria BeckhamxTarget Collection was on my calendar last fall, I'm pathetic, I know. She is one of my absolute favorites when it comes to fashion, to me she's an icon. When I heard she was collaborating with Target my eyes probably popped out of my head. And, she didn't disappoint either. I saw these pink pants online before the collection dropped and I needed them. Needed them! I also got a few other items too, but I needed to blog about these immediately. I paired this white lace top and it just felt like Spring...now if the weather would cooperate we'd be set.

Summer Staples

In my mind nothing screams Summer more than white and denim. It's such a classic go to that can be worn in so many ways. A white top with jeans always seems to be something I reach for if I don't feel like thinking too much about my outfit...I guess now you'll know the mornings I over sleep, or just feel lazy. We're entitled to those once in a while though, right?

This post took my basic white and denim to another level, but I absolutely love it. Not to mention the entire look is under $60. The details of this skirt immediately caught my eye, and I knew the options with it were endless. So, no brainer. And this shirt, I absolutely love the details of it. I mean, how can you not? 

Zara + Target, my two favorites have officially collided! How did this take so long? Well either way, I'm smitten this happened.

Denim Dressing

I get so excited finding clothing that I love and can do so much with. It makes life so much easier, especially when you're traveling. This dress is one of those for me.

The day I found this dress, I wore it with heels out for a night. Two weeks later I wore it with boots and a scarf (pictured below) for a day of shopping. 

Changing small aspects can have a big impact. And with denim, you can never go wrong. And guess what else? It has pockets, major selling point for me.

Bonjour Track Pants

Sometimes, I hate the idea of wearing anything that touches my body. I'm realizing now what I just typed and that might sound bad. What I mean is, there are days where I'm not in the mood for clothes that aren't comfortable...Insert my love for track pants here.

Have you tried this trend yet, you guys?

I'm head over heels, and literally wear them with heels, too. It's great! I'm also totally fine wearing them from the comfort of my couch, they're versatile which is perfect for any lifestyle.

So, here's to the track pants...I'm completely on board!

Uniquely Comfortable x Philistine

Can I just say that you guys are so awesome? I truly appreciate the kind messages and comments from you in regards to this blog and my social media. With everything going on in this crazy world, there's so much good, too. I have found a new appreciation for people, because there really is a lot of good ones! 

Have you heard of Philistine? Okay, let's chat about them for a hot second...

First off, their brand is so unique which obviously checks a box for me. Not to mention when my box arrived there was a sweet note placed on top of the clothing, this gets me...Every. Single. Time. I love when brands take time for a personal touch, the little things, right? This adds to my appreciation for good people!

The item that drew me to Philistine is the sweatshirt in this post. I really needed it in my life, it was kind of a do or die thing. The sleeves instantly drew me in, with the plunging neckline, but it's so comfortable because...sweatshirt. How is someone just creating such a versatile piece? I'm so ever thankful they did though, because it's totally on rotation for me now.

I will also have more pieces from them coming to the blog, but I wanted to inform you of this brand now...because it's so amazing!

Fringe Affair

If I could wear fringe everyday, I would. There's just serious love in my heart for "different". Thinking about it, I have fringe blankets, pillows, clothes, shoes and accessories...whoa! Maybe it does end up on my body regularly? The love is strong, you guys!

Layering this white, fringe jacket over a long sleeve dress just felt right. The transition weather from Winter to Summer can be difficult to dress for. I feel like deciding what to wear is a daily battle for me right now. 

And these shoes, I cannot get enough! But then again, can we ever have enough? The correct answer is yes, but in the fashion world...the correct answer is, no? Either way, no matter your answer to this shoe conundrum, these espadrilles are perfect for Spring/Summer and so affordable. Snag 'em now!
