“There is no dream too big for God to make a reality”
Happy Friday! This week felt like an entire month. TGIF!! It’s been a busy week and the train is not stopping anytime soon. This week was filled with trying and experiencing new things, dipping into possible (and exciting) things to come, lots of work (ugh so much work), and of course fun!
As the weather slowing changes, the sun comes out to warm our bodies, and the birds migrate back North, we know that spring is in the air. Although spring has officially started last week it doesn’t always feel that way. I am still wearing my puffer coat and oversized sweaters. I am yearning for the days to come where I can wear pretty dresses. Easter is usually when I start wearing spring-like dresses with floral prints or bright colors. It’s a day of rebirth, the end of the cold season and the beginning of life for nature to grow back. Easter is one of my favorite holidays; cute bunny and baby chicks decor, pastel outfits, church, Easter egg hunts, and the best holiday candy ever. And I will fight you on the candy part! Best holiday candy all year; mini Cadbury eggs and Reese’s peanut butter cups… what more can a girl ask for?

When I was little I wanted to be a Broadway star when I grew up. My first trip to New York was when I was in elementary school with my dance studio. We took classes at Broadway Dance Center, saw shows, and walked about the city I would later call home. I fell in love with New York and knew I wanted to move here some day. On my next trip to NYC I asked my parents for a little painting from a street vendor down in Battery Park of all of the broadway shows. I placed the small painting (no bigger than a notebook) in my room and would stare at it, dreaming of living in NYC and being on Broadway. My first Broadway show I ever saw I was in elementary school. My parents took my sister and me to see Phantom Of The Opera. My parents bought me the Phantom mask and I would wear it around the house with a cape. I still have the mask in case you are wondering and would 100% wear the mask and a cape right now.

A great way to transition into spring is by wearing jumpsuits. It is easy to throw on and you can dress casually or elevate the outfit with heels. Rebecca Taylor, one of my favorite brands, has a line of scalloped attire. From shorts to blazers to tanks to this jumpsuit, the scallops bring a minimalist detail. The design element runs all the way down the hemline and across the overlay of the top. It’s a nautical style if you ask me. With the subtle look of this jumpsuit, you can play around with how to style it. I choose to match my (gingham) shoes with my handbag for a pop of color. You can play around it with more by throwing a sweater over it, creating the illusion of separates, or by wearing a blazer (patterned or colored) for when it gets chillier. If that seems too much, change up your accessories; wear statement earrings or a headband.This scalloped jumpsuit is one that you can wear over and over again.
