Embracing Pastel Gingham in Time for Spring

Snagged this pastel gingham tank from Gordmans last month and am so excited it’s warm enough to wear! As soon as I spotted this multicolor pastel, high neck tank I knew I wanted it.  The colors are so fun  and the piece just screams spring to me.

Making Heart Health a Priority with Gordmans

Can I make a confession?  Okay great.  I don’t always take my physical health as seriously as I should.  Being more mindful of my body, how I feel, and taking care of myself are all things on my goals for this year.  One thing in particular that’s important to me is my heart health.  High blood pressure and high cholesterol both run in my family.  I want to be able to enjoy my life but also live a long life too.

Blush Handkerchief Dress for Kentucky Oaks Day

Oaks Day is the day before the Derby and everyone is encouraged to wear pink!  Breast cancer survivors are honored and a portion of proceeds from the day goes towards breast cancer research and awareness charities. Knowing this, I picked a blush dress that would be perfect for Oaks Day and brunch with friends.
