What To Wear To Your Next Wedding Affair

What To Wear To Your Next Wedding Affair

The first thing to consider is your relationship with the bride or groom. If you're related, such as a parent or sibling, you can go for something more traditional. If you're not related but have a close relationship with the bride or groom, you may also want to choose something traditional. If you don't know them well or aren't close with them and are just attending their wedding as an invited guest, then consider choosing a more modern look. For example, if the wedding is held at a beachside resort where everyone will be wearing casual clothes, then wearing a cocktail dress might not be appropriate.

Tips For Finding Your Perfect Fit

Tips For Finding Your Perfect Fit

First, we have to talk about my new favorite denim brand, Judy Blue. Every time I think about this brand I think about that Y2K song Big Booty Judy, because these jeans are not only size-inclusive but made with the big booty girls in mind. This brand cuts their jeans and shorts in sizes 1-24 or small - 3X, and they all have between 1%-5% spandex. If you hate that stiff feeling of not being able to breathe in your jeans then you’re going to absolutely love the Judy Blue brand. In fact, there’s often enough spandex for you to be able to size down in these jeans if you still want a tighter fit with all the comfort of spandex. Also, the pricing of these jeans is perfect for the quality, ranging from $50 - $70 depending on the style.

#GOALS

We’re half way through the month of April and we’ve been talking a lot about myself, but today I want to talk about Ivy Reina and the plans I have for my boutique. One thing I’ve learned in the almost 3 years that we have been open is that you have to set SMART goals in your business or you’ll have nothing to work towards. It took a while but I’m finally in a space where I feel like not only can I set goals, I can actually achieve them as well. So this week I want to share 3 of my biggest goals for Ivy Reina.

Our Favorite Red Carpet Looks From The Queens Of The 2022 Oscars.

We might as well start with Jada Smith’s outfit by Jean-Paul Gaultier and his protégée Glenn Martens. Honestly, I love the look on her, she looks domineering in the long sleeve zipper bodice and feminine in the sea of green ruffles. The emerald tones of the dress also really complement her skin tone.

Spring Cleaning With Undiagnosed ADHD

Spring Cleaning With Undiagnosed ADHD

To start take out a piece of paper and a pen and physically write down all of the things that you want to clean. Physically writing things down helps to commit them to memory and gives you something visual to come back to if and when you forget what’s next. With everything listed out give yourself a time frame to complete the list. You can get as detailed as to how long you want to spend on each task or as vague as giving yourself two weeks complete the entire list. As long as you have a deadline to work towards everything will work out fine. To finish off your to-do list write down a reward that you’ll gift yourself once all the tasks are complete.

How I Ball On A Budget

How I Ball On A Budget

First, we have to talk about the dollar tree, now yes I know they raised their prices and I was mad too, but hear me out. We all can agree that $0.25 was not the issue it was the principal, but have you been inside lately because they're using that extra coin to upgrade their selection. I have an entire list of DIY dollar tree projects that I’m going to be doing this spring. It’s giving affordable luxury for me and I’m obsessed.

Fashion Faux Pas You Should Try Anyways

Fashion Faux Pas You Should Try Anyways

This next don’t I actually remember hearing all of the time and I don’t know who started it, but the saying goings never mix your metals and less is more, meaning don’t wear silver and gold together and keep it simple. Here’s the thing with this, you definitely should not wear silver earrings with a gold necklace and silver bracelets. However, with the layering trend, it’s completely ok for you to wear your silver and gold necklaces by mixing different sizes and styles of chains. This will give you some freedom with your choice of earrings and allow you to do some mixing with your bracelets and rings as well. When it comes to keeping your accessories simple while simple jewelry works well for minimalists, I personally am a maximalist and I only want to use simple jewelry when I’m wearing a bold outfit. When I wear a simple outfit my accessories are stacked and bold, but it’s personal preference above all else.
