I had the best weekend in DC with Dave. The weather in Wisconsin has been less than ideal so I warmly welcomed the 80 degrees with 90% humidity. We walked around the Jeffereson Memorial and Tidal Basin area to see the beautiful Cherry Blossoms. I am so glad we went when we did because I feel like the petals were already starting to fall so much! 

Dave had a lot of studying to do this weekend, but even simply sitting together is comforting! I guess that is what you get used to in a long distance relationship! 

I use my time to plan our trip to Europe, I've researched the best restaurants and shopped for some cute outfits!

Denim Style Secret

Sweater (super similar for $15!)  // Scarf // Denim // Handbag (similar) 

// Sunglasses // Lipstick: Le Rouge // Flats (my essential pair!)

YAY! It's friday. I am celebrating Thanksgiving with my family this weekend because I will be in Chicago with Daves family next week. I am so excited to also do some decorating with my mom this weekend. I am so ready for all things Christmas!!

I wore this outfit running out to the grocery store with Dave last weekend in DC. We made the yummiest crock pot beef roast!! My denim is the secret that I want to tell you all about. I am denim obsessed, I hoard denim, I really truly do. I need some new denim so so badly but have not had the time to go to Nordstrom and try on 7000 pairs…which is always what I have to do. Whenever I need denim fast and cheap I go to Zara. I think the quality is great and most pairs are $39. I wear a size 6 consistanty across all styles and each time the fit is perfect. I think that Zara is truly world class in fit. I would recommend these jeans to anyone who needs to add a few more pairs to their wardrobe or if you are not yet ready to spend a big chunk of change on designer.

I hope you all had a great weekend! Dave was in Chicago for an interview so I went there Friday night for dinner with his family. We poured over photos from his parents most recent state park trip to the badlands. They visit a state park every year and are trying to check each off their list. This is totally something Dave and I would love to do! We are thinking Alaska or Canada next summer for a fun adventure!

Sometimes my favorite outfits are the most simple. I love jeans paired with a great white top. I love this one because of the deep v-neck. ALSO. These new leopard heels are AMAZING.

Chambray at the National Harbor

 Dress// Necklace (Similar & so cute!) // Sandals // Tote // Earrings (SO OBSESSED) // Lipstick: Impassioned

WHOA. BRIGHT. Sorry about this...I just got a new lens for my camera and clearly when we shot these I was still getting used to it. Tomorrows pictures are better! We couldn't have retaken these anyway because we were literally melting in the sun. I got in the longest line ever at Ben & Jerrys right after this. I seriously get anxiety at ice cream places. I cannot make a decision to save my life. I got one scoop of strawberry and one scoop of cookies and cream...because those go together right? 

Anyway...this chambray dress is one of the items in my closet that I always grab. First of all I love the color...but it is also so easy to change up with lip stick or different color shoes...a scarf..anything!

Washington Monument Watercolors

Tank // Skirt // Belt // Sandals // Lipcolor: Girl About Town // Necklace: Rocksbox (use code "loveyourfatexoxo" for a free month!)  // Tote // Earrings

Dave and I hit so many touristy spots in DC this weekend. I took these photos in front of the Reflecting pool outside the Lincoln Memorial. The Lincoln Memorial is SO much bigger than I had imagined it to be.  Dave is the absolute best person to bring with to museums or historical places because he is like an encyclopedia. He teaches me so much!!! I never had a knack for remembering history...dates, figures....but he knows it all and I love having him around. 

onto the outfit...I absolutely adore this skirt! It was perfect for walking around DC...especially paired with this light tank you guys have seen me wear at least a dozen times! I am going back to DC in October and am hoping for cooler temps.
