Hello friends!

It has been a while since I have posted and I hope everyone had a fun, relaxing holiday. It has been hectic around my house these last few weeks with some renovations we are working on in the basement and sunroom. My house is in complete chaos and I will be happy when these projects are completed. I will post pictures when (if!) everything is finished.

I have spent the last month in my sweatpants, so it’s time for me to get back into the swing of things! These faux collars are some of my favorite, inexpensive ways to add some interest to an outfit without the feeling of too many layers. I wore one from COS that I purchased several years ago, for coffee with my sister at Caffe Tosi in downtown St. Joseph, MI. I always try to go there when I visit the west side of the state. It’s the best! I found some cute options on Amazon here and here.

I wore the same black jeans and black sweater out to dinner that night but dressed up my outfit with this fun lace collar, and heels by Eileen Fisher.  I went out with my family for a belated birthday celebration dinner for my mom at Timothy’s in Union Pier. It was yummy!
