style, stories & everything in between
with the wedding falling so close to the holidays, we've scaled back on our social calendar this year. not that S and i are party animals by any means, but these days we live for any quiet afternoon/evening we can get. however, just because we're not painting the town red this holiday season doesn't mean ...
if you haven't noticed, bows are having a moment this season. they're everywhere! on sleeves, on lapels, on shoulders, around necks, -they're even making an appearance on your favorite hair accessories. given my love for a feminine detail, i'm obviously loving every minute of it. unfortunately this sweater is essentially sold out everywhere now, but ...
happy friday! i apologize for the radio silence this week, with my bachelorette festivities the primary focus last weekend, we were unable to sneak in any photo shoots. i assure you that regular scheduled programming will resume this coming week. in the meantime, i've rounded up my looks from the past six days with links ...
as you may have already deduced, i'm not the typical bride. so though it's totally a rite of passage, the thought of having a "typical" bachelorette party kind of made me cringe. but then one of my best girls told me to think of it less as a bachelorette party (complete with penis straws and ...
happy saturday and welcome to another installment of #shawnaleeannstyle lately! this was the first week that it felt like fall and i was more than happy to honor that fact by dressing in boots and sweaters all week long. fingers crossed the cold-front lasts a little longer because i'm really loving pulling out some of ...
on saturday night i attended a birthday party for a dear friend's 30th birthday. since i usually opt for jeans on the weekends -whether paired with a ruffled blouse or a simple tee, i thought i'd step it up and dress a little fancier for the occasion. i actually wear this combo as a work ...
before we ventured to dinner on saturday evening, S and i took a drive down PCH. though fall officially began last thursday, you'd never know it by the weekend's weather. the beach was abuzz with locals and tourists alike savoring the sunny conditions. i had planned on wearing this top again with my flare jeans ...
can you believe it's already labor day weekend? weren't we just celebrating memorial day? ready or not, fall is coming (t-minus three days until the return of the pumpkin spice latte at starbuck's and eight days until regular season football!) and i for one am ready. so let's say goodbye to summer the best way ...
in keeping with the intimacy of our wedding, S and i decided early on to forgo traditional bridal parties. instead, we each selected a family member (my cousin, his younger brother) to stand beside us at the altar as an attendant, and concluded that the rest of our favorite people would celebrate alongside us as guests. ...
while i love playing dress up, the INSTANT i make it through the garage door after a long day, i'm in the shower, and straight into pajamas. which is why my loungewear wardrobe is just as -if not more -important than my work/play/workout collections combined. what can i say, i just love my sweatpants! since i wear them ...
