Flirty Floral
The wind was blowing my ‘Flirty Floral’ ties around and unfortunately, the cameraman (a.k.a. Hubby), was oblivious to it. He’s all about getting that blurred background. Once the weather gets nice and we can spend more time outdoors getting the hang of this new camera and lens, we will do a blog post on them. I know some of you have been anxiously waiting. What I can say is we LOVE the set-up. We are so happy we chose to go with a fixed-lens to get the background effect we were looking for. There is so much more that you can do, but we just haven’t had the time and weather conditions to play a little. Definitely be watching for a blog post in the next few months!
The ‘think SPRING’ plaque was from the dollar section at Target ($3), the easter egg appetizer plate, which was one of four or five different color & designs’ was from Target ($3.99), as well as the little Peony Flower arrangement ($4.99). I could not link these items, because they are sold in-store, only. Are you thinkin’ what I’m thinkin’? Spring on over to Target!!!

I am absolutely loving the floral trend for spring. As I’ve been peeking around websites of stores that I love, I am spotting floral print on anything from airy shorts to flowy dresses – feminine & flirty! This floral top actually comes in white, too. These jeans are probably one of the most expensive pair I have ever purchased, but they were worth the money .. still under $100. By far, these jeans are the most comfortable I have … even more than my all-time favs – H&M. I am really getting into the spring spirit. I definitely can feel it in the air. Before you know it, spring break will be here. We are not going anywhere, and usually don’t. But I love hearing what everyone else is doing. What are your plans for spring break?
Thanks for stopping by. I hope you add a little flirty floral to your wardrobe, this spring.

02/23/2016I love this whole outfit inspiration. Going to order myself this outfit. Love the blouse and those jeans! Can I ask what size you got on these jeans so I can get an idea. I just wish it was SPRING soon. But forecast says we are getting SNOW tomorrow! Oh well, Thanks for the post! Xo

02/23/2016Thank you Edna for the nice compliment & also for putting a bug in my ear. I definitely think it’s important for fashion bloggers to give the sizes they purchaeed, as it does help others. I will make an effort to do that. The blouse is a Small. I tried the extra small .. it fit, but I’m chesty! So the small was perfect. Jeans are a ’26’ true to size. I love them! Snow, I know!!!! NO! And it’s a winter storm … could get real nasty out there! Hope you love your new purchases and thanks again! xx

02/23/2016Love this outfit so pretty for spring and think your camera man is doing a fabulous job!:) I actually received the blouse today and was pleasantly surprised at the fit and quality. Of course I had to go online and order the white as well😊 Also, thank you for linking the belts, I have been searching for that color. Can’t wait to pair it all together.👍🏻 💗

02/24/2016Thank you Denise! Yes, I agree …the camera man is not too shabby. I am thankful, trust me! If it weren’t for him … none of this would have taken place!I am happy to hear you were pleased with the forever 21 blouse. Yes, they certainly are hit and miss … when it comes to quality. I hope you snap me your adorable outfit on that cute little figure of yours once you get all you pieces! xo

04/22/2016Not only did you “make” me buy the blush brush, but you also “made” me buy these jeans when they went on sale. And guess what? I love them! Trendy AND comfy.
