Simple Easter Look
[slideshow_deploy id=’1693′]
I can’t believe how fast Easter got here. Think about it, it’s already been 4 months into the year…crazy! I really hope it stays nice this weekend for some BBQ and egg hunting! I usually spend Easter with my family in Yerington and love seeing how cute my nieces’ outfits are. They are seriously THE cutest!

I wanted to share with you an outfit with some pants because if the weather is bad you can at least stay warm. I paired these pink pants with this off the shoulder top that I purchased last year. I didn’t get much use out of it last year because I purchased it closer to the end of summer, beginning of fall. Anyways, it works perfectly for this spring. Monochromatic colors are very trendy right now, and although I am not much of a “pink” person I do like light shades of pink.
I did want to talk about the heels I am wearing. I also purchased them last year, and linked them to this post, as well as some similar options that I found. I also found some similar ones at my local TJMaxx and Marshalls last year. Don’t be shy and check out other stores in your local area. Many brands are jumping on the bandwagon of trends and coming up with similar affordable styles as well.
I hope everyone has a wonderful time this weekend, whether you celebrate Easter or not. It is always a great time well spent with loved ones. Today is Alonso’s birthday so we are heading out for some dinner. I can’t believe it has been almost 10 years that I have known him. It’s so crazy to think you’ve witnessed someone grow up almost half their life!

Black & White Spring Look
[slideshow_deploy id=’1675′]
I wore this look this past weekend when Alonso and I went out to run some errands. I actually wore some smaller heels or else I couldn’t walk around the whole day like this. I still think it is appropriate to wear black and white in the spring. It may seem too dark for some, but I feel if you add some type of light color to the outfit, like white, you can make it work. We all know how much we love black because we can pair it with pretty much anything.
I purchased my heels from Charlotte Russe about a year or two ago for such an affordable price. I like how mine are really affordable dupes for this pair from Valentino for $1,045. My pair were probably under $30, if I recall. I also linked some similar ones that are affordable.
My jeans are boyfriend jeans that are also from Charlotte Russe. I picked them up in a bigger size, which I regret. I like skinny jeans but sometimes they are too tight if you know what I mean. However, since these were boyfriend jeans I should have known they would be big on me.
If you ever want to find dupes for items you see are trending, I suggest you look at online stores. They always try to carry some of the items that are popular. Some of my favorite stores are Forever 21, Charlotte Russe, OOTDFash, and also Lulu’s. Don’t be afraid to try a new place out!

Spring Wish List from MISSGUIDED
[slideshow_deploy id=’1636′]
I am such a big fan of a new season, especially spring or fall, of course. I just love the warmer weather where it’s not too hot nor too cold, you know what I mean? So I decided to put a little wish list together for this new season. I have been stalking Missguided’s website for awhile now because they have such cute pieces. I want to purchase all the items I mention to you today, but I want to wait until I for sure know Reno isn’t going to have a snowstorm. This crazy weather is very unpredictable!
First off, let’s talk about this cute skirt. I saw it and was completely in aw! It is perfect for spring, especially for Easter. I love the light neutral shades because they scream for spring. This skirt is perfect because you can wear it for church, to work (if it’s not too short on you), or on special occasions where you just want to be put together. I think this skirt would look great if paired with a cute white or light colored blazer and some nude heels!
This off the shoulder top is a must for my wish list. The colors, the details, it is just an over all beautiful top. I love how tops like this look great paired with jeans or even shorts, and even a cute denim skirt. Off the shoulder tops were very popular last year and I still feel they will continue to be a trend this spring and summer.
White jeans are a top on my wish list because I seriously can’t keep a pair for more than a couple of months. I always have to get them dirty with some type of food. They are hard to keep clean to be completely honest. However, this pair of white jeans are making my list because they are not only skinny but they have a little ripped patch. If you follow me, you know how much I love ripped jeans. White jeans are essential for spring because they stay with the neutral shade colors and you can always wear white with anything. You always want to purchase those items that are versatile and you can pair them with anything so you can get the most for your buck.
Lastly, these sandals are way too cute to not want to purchase. The studded sandals are pretty trendy and I love how they make a statement. If you were to pair these sandals, with the white jeans, and the off the shoulder top, you have yourself a perfect spring look! (I might just make a blog post on it haha). Try searching for neutral shoes for this spring season so you can pair them with pretty much anything.
So that wraps up my small wish list from Missguided, at the moment. Missguided has really cute pieces, I hope you get some little inspiration on what they currently have in stock. Tweet me on my Twitter some pieces that you want on your wish list for this spring!
Rustic Orange Bomber Jacket
[slideshow_deploy id=’1618′]
I am a huge fan of bomber jackets, and would love to have one in every color, but that would just take over my closet. I recently purchased my espadrille wedges and shared them with you on an earlier post, here. They are ridiculously comfortable, I am not even exaggerating. I know heels can really hurt your feet, but wedges are a better option because they have more support. I walked in these espadrilles all day and was not complaining, for once. I can walk in heels, but of course after 8 hours I will eventually complain.
I picked up my bomber jacket from OOTDFash and used my discount code: PATTYG15 for 15% off. Who doesn’t love discounts, right? OOTDFash has a ton of cute trendy pieces and I will try to do a wish list post for them next week on the blog. So stay tuned for that because I have a ton of cute pieces I want to purchase.
I have been wanting to share some spring looks but the weather in Reno has been acting a little out of the ordinary. It snowed, rained, and the sun came out, all in one day. I was a little shocked because I was not wearing the appropriate outfit for snow. I should know by now from living in Reno for the past few years. I am hoping it will start getting a little warmer so I can share more pieces!

Daytime & Nighttime Outfit
[slideshow_deploy id=’1586′]

Working full-time and trying to balance a life outside of work can be a bit hectic. One of the things I have learned to make it easier for me is choosing the appropriate outfit. You’re probably wondering, what does choosing an outfit have to do with making your life less hectic? Do you ever have those days where you have to go to a dinner after work or look presentable, but not so professional? That is where choosing the right outfit comes into play.
I purchased this green dress from Nordstrom Rack about a month ago. I feel like it is appropriate for work if you wear tights/leggings underneath, like I did. It would also look great with a pair of heels. I like staying comfy when I go to work so I opted out. I sometimes plan things with my girlfriends after work or with my boyfriend, but I don’t want to change my outfit completely. It can be a hassle.. trust me!
What I ended up doing with this outfit is taking off my leggings/tights and instead putting on my denim jacket from OOTDFash and pairing it with some cute booties. I love these booties that my boyfriend gave me as gift, he knows my style! Now, I am able to go out without looking so professional or like I just got off work.
If you don’t follow me on Instagram, then you probably hadn’t noticed that I have a discount code with OOTDFash. If you like my jacket, go ahead and check it out here and use my discount code: PATTYG15 at check out for 15% off.
