     Hello there!
If you have a dog, you know they very completely become your whole world. When I got my little dachshund, Piper, a little over a year ago, I started accumulating just about anything you can think of with a wiener dog on it. Hand towels, socks, t-shirts, pajamas, slippers, wrapping paper, house decor... You name it, I probably have it. However there is some disparity between the volume of dachshund items on the market, and ones that are actually stylish. As much as I love long day jokes, I still want to look chic while proudly repping my precious pup. Enter, Wooden Ships. Wooden Ships is a family owned and run business of 25 years with a passion for quality, giving back, and ethical production. In a world of fast fashion, it feels good to support a brand that is doing so much good. From crating their own factory in Bali and ensuring generous benefits and working conditions for workers, to being 85% solar powered to reduce their carbon footprint, to using eco-friendly and oxo-degradable packaging. They even make all pieces to order, eliminating waste. And they give to charities including EarthJustice, Organic Consumers Organization, the International Anti-Poaching Foundation, the Environmental Defense Fund, and WildAid to name a few (yes, there are more). So not only are you getting a super cute, high quality sweater- but you are supporting a company that supports so many people and the planet. When they reached out and asked if I'd like to style one of their sweaters, I was incredibly flattered! And, it even has some little dachshunds on it. And, just about every other dog. The grey is the perfect neutral for into fall and winter, and I layered it with my cutest bralette. I paired it with jeans and some open-toe booties, but it will be equally adorable with some leggings and converse taking Piper for a walk! This thing is so soft, and it's light-knit makes it the perfect sweater for autumn in the south. You can use the code 'EmilyBlueB15' for 15% off your purchase of one of Wooden Ship's lovely pieces, and they are worth every penny. Do you have a dog? Do you see the breed on the sweater? Let me know! til next time, Emily

  Hello there!
While I do love deep colors for fall, I am a sucker for brights year-round. I think injecting a little extra color into your wardrobe in the fall-time especially is a great way to stand out, and add a little pep to your step! I found this striped cardi, and I was immediately drawn to it. I love it because it does have a variety of bright colors, but they are slightly muted which will make it easy to incorperate into the pieces I already have! The mustard yellow, terracotta, olive green, and faded teal are such a lovely combo. I would wear it for the rest of the summer with shorts and whatever tee I was wearing, or in fall with a tee tied up, jeans, and some booties! Into the cooler months I’d opt for a pair of tall riding boots, some knit socks, and a light long sleeve tee with this sweater tossed over. How would you style this cardi?

We are so close to a whole new Taylor Swift album. This is all I have been thinking about for months. On the heels of this new era, I wanted to share my favorite Taylor Swift red lip. I have shared this lipstick before, but it is still MAC's Ruby Woo. I read years ago that this is the lipstick she wore on the Speak Now tour, and ever since it is one of the only red lipsticks I wear. It is truly the best, and gives that bold, classic, Taylor Swift red lip look. Are you as excited for the new album as I am? Let me know! til next time, Emily    Hello there!
If you know me, you know I love a good jumpsuit. They are the perfect piece to dress up or down, and to transition into fall with some booties and a denim jacket. This jumpsuit has all of the sweet, feminine details I adore such as the tie front and the puff sleeve, but the muted mauve pink makes it the perfect piece to transition into the fall time. I wanted to style it how I'll be wearing it through the rest of the hotter months. I threw on my favorite pair of nude heels, some heart-shaped hoops, and my favorite velvet & pearl headband I picked up from Amazon. If you're a hat girl, a floppy hat would be adorable with this little outfit too! Topped it off with my favorite Kate Spade handbag to play up the dressy aspect of the look. I loved this whole look together because it was sweet and feminine, but with the chic edge a jumpsuit brings to the table. How would you style this jumpsuit?

It is that time of the year when everyone starts to get excited for fall, and starts stashing away chunky knits for when it cools down. It won’t get chilly in Texas until probably November, but that’s not stopped me from doing a little fall shopping! The most quintessentially-fall thing I’ve purchased is this cream, bubble-knit cardigan from ChicWish. They have the most adorable, Pinterest-worthy sweaters for fall and winter. And I am so happy with this one, I definitely need to pick a few more up. This thing is so freaking soft. My biggest pet peeve is itchy knits in the fall, but this thing is the softest thing I own. It is like wearing a blanket. I have just been wearing it around the house, and I wanted to style it for you guys! I paired it with my little silk, lace trimmed cami, my favorite pair of jeans that are a dupe for the Madewell pair from the NSale, and my little peep-toe booties. I cannot wait to wear this little ensemble as soon as it’s cool enough! Thank you so much to ChicWish for my new favorite cardi! Have you started shopping for fall pieces? Let me know! til next time, Emily    Hello there!
i shared this adorable rose colored, ruffled tank dress a few weeks ago and y’all have been loving it. So, I wanted to show you guys a second way to style it to transition this fun, flirty little number into autumn. First, I tossed on a denim jacket. The classic way to transition anything into fall, right? Then I opted for some open-toe booties. I have been searching for the perfect pair for weeks, which might sound ridiculous but it’s true. I finally decided on this pair from The Pink Lily Boutique. They’re the perfect brown, I love the side slits, and the heel is just the right height! If autumn is colder where you are, you could always opt for some closed toe booties & thick socks. I’ll be rocking this frock for the rest of summer and into fall! Which styling do you like better?

I know everywhere is bringing out their fall lines, but I’m not quite done with summer yet. I still have a couple months of flouncey dresses and sandals left in Texas! I had my eye on a dress very similar to this one from a boutique, but when I saw this one for less than half the price I had to at least try it! This sweet little number is just around $20, available on Amazon with Prime shipping, and absolutely adorable! I am always hesitant with Amazon clothing, but the quality on this dress is perfection. The tiered ruffles are darling, the color looks just as good in person, and it is fully lined! I ordered a small, I’m 5’4 for reference and the length is perfect on me. If you are looking for a fun, flirty little dress to wear for the rest of summer and into fall- check this one out! It comes in a bunch of colors too! Do you shop for clothes on Amazon?
