In The Mood – J.Crew New Arrivals (May 2017)

You guys....the new arrivals from J.Crew are so cute!  Have you had a chance to check everything out in person yet?  I stopped into my local store during my lunch break today and immediately had to try on several things like the Tie-Waist Skirt in Puckered Morning FloralOff-the-Shoulder Ruffle Bodysuit, the Ruffle Skirt in Chambray and the Off-the-Shoulder Top in Silk Shantung. I loved everything so much that it was hard not to take it all home with me.  There are so many cute new off-the-shoulder pieces, bold florals and the prettiest bubble gum pink pieces...I mean what's not to love? Well, my favorites items from J.Crew are pictured below and I’m sure that they will put you all in a good mood! Check them out and let me know if you're just as obsessed about these items as I am.  And I almost forgot the best part - you can save an additional 25% off your purchase of select full-price items until April 23, 2017 at 11:59pm ET when you use the code: HOPTOIT.

In the Mood – Currently Loving

Happy Sunday Friends! The other day I realized that I haven’t posted a list of my favorite things in a pretty long time. So I just put together a fun list of a few things that I want to buy right now and most of them are under $100.

I don’t know about you, but I’ve been obsessing over everything blush lately! It’s a welcomed break from the black staples in my closet and a it’s perfect transition color into the spring and summer season. Just add blush, dusty rose or a whisper of nude to your daily rotation and you’ll be sure to recieve instant compliments.

Do any of you have a serious blush crush right now? Have you already started adding some new pieces to your spring wardrobe? Well, check out a few of my favorites below and let me know what you think. Thanks for stopping by today.

Moody Style: Ruffle Sleeve Sweater

Although spring is just around the corner, winter doesn’t seem to be done with us yet. I’m so surprised by how cold it has gotten down here in Florida. We’ve hit record lows in the high 20s and low 30s in some parts of the state, which is a big deal for us. Hopefully, the weather will start to warm up tomorrow and we’ll move on to spring-like temperatures soon. 

Now on to today’s look. I’m sure most of you have seen this fun Layered Ruffled Sleeve Pullover Sweater on the blogosphere over the past few months. I’m a little late to the game, but I still had to get one for myself – I just fell in love with the exaggerated ruffled sleeves. I don’t know about you, but I’m obsessed with ruffles lately and you all must be as well because ruffles have been trending for a while. And almost every retailer has some type of ruffle top, sweater or dress in stock right now and I can’t get enough of it. You’ll definitely see more ruffles in my future.

I almost didn’t buy get this sweater because it comes in one-size and the reviews said it was a little cropped, but lucky for me it totally worked. I got the pink/blush color because it goes with everything and who doesn’t love blush right now? I paired it with a medium wash pair of denim jeans, but this top would also look great with a white pair of skinny jeans or even a grey pair. Unfortunately, the pink sweater is sold out, but they still have it available in several other colors – like red, white and black.

What do you guys think about the ruffle trend right now. Do you plan on buying any ruffles this season or are you over it?

Happy Friday Eve and thanks for stopping by today.

Love from Florida,
Moody Girl

Mood Board – Dream Dressing Room

I’m so excited to finally share this post with you. I was recently inspired by Arhaus to share a post on my ideal dream dressing room mood board along with a few design tips! I’m no where close to being an interior designer, but I do love putting together mood boards to illustrate some ideas I have about my dream home. I currently live in an apartment, so most of you understand that I’m in desperate need of an upgrade from my small walk-in closet to a boutique-inspired room complete with extra seating, stylish lighting and other luxuries. And although I won’t be moving into my perfectly spacious closet any time soon, a girl is never too old to keep dreaming right? Anyways, if you’re contemplating a closet upgrade or simply just daydreaming about it, here are 5 tips to keep in mind when creating your new space:

1. Mirrors: Be sure to add mirrors and/or mirrored doors to the space because it adds light to the room and also provides views from every angle while getting dressed. The right mirror can add a little character to the space as well. I love how this one has a distressed finish creating a vintage style to this closet.

2. Incorporate an Island: If you have extra space in your closet, then try to incorporate an island in the space. An island makes a statement in any room, especially a closet since it’s rare to see. You can have one built in or use a dresser or chest like these here. The dresser I picked out below has the right details to transform a typical closet into a stylish sanctuary. It also has additional drawers for storage and space to lay out clothing for a better view when packing or organizing.

3. Jewelry and Accessories Station: Take inspiration from your favorite stores or boutiques to display your collection of clutches and handbags, statement necklaces, bracelets, earrings and shoes. Adding displays like a mannequin, a rolling rack, a jewelry armoire or an open bookcase for your shoes are perfect ways to create a unique and sophisticated space.

4. Seating Arrangement: In order for your walk-in closet to be truly functional and enjoyable, you’ll need proper seating. An ottoman or an armchair is the perfect solution. You can lay out outfits on the ottoman or sit on the chair to get your shoes on. It’s also an easy way to bring color into your closet to make it feel like every other room in the home

5. Proper Lighting: Light fixtures in closets are necessary especially when they lack natural lighting. Finding the right outfit by making sure the colors match and/or making sure that your outfit isn’t too sheer requires proper lighting. Go for an elegant style if you want to replicate a celebrity-style closet. Adding a chandelier like any of these here will certainly do just the trick.

Well, there you have it. Check out some of my favorite pieces from Arhaus for my dream dressing room below. What would your dream dressing room look like? Do you already have one? Let me know if you have any other furniture suggestions for this room.
