dirt road hippie

shoes: Kohls // dress and sunnies: Walmart // bandana and bracelets: gifted 

Outfits like this make me smile, they make me want to jump up and down and feel dirt between my toes. They make me want to dance outside at night (or just anytime really). They are comfortable and cute. A little hippie dippie and a little country girl. 

As you know from before, this dirt road is my most favorite place in the world I think. I have to take a few pictures here every time I venture home. It represents so much to me. It's where we used to ride horses when I was younger, laughing and yelling, getting lessons on the perfect sliding stop. It's where I ran as fast as I could, when my younger sister fell and broke her arm. It's where Mama and I walked many mornings, determined to get in better shape but laughing and learning so much about each other along the way. It has our favorite Y tree, or used to. It's where I got to drive the tractor with my Papa, it's where we used to draw in the dirt with sticks. It's where we used to drive when it was just to early to go in, it has heard happy times and sad times, fighting and loving. It's as far as I got the first time I ever "ran" away.  It's where my sisters and I grew up, the place that will always lead to what we call home.

Shop My Look:

After a super busy weekend, I am showing you an easy breezy outfit that I wore to my sister's graduation. The colors were completely appropriate for the festivities of the Memorial Day weekend. It's back at work again today after a great time at home. I am so happy that the weather is starting to feel like summer and soon I will be sipping a beer at the beach. How was y'alls weekend? Anything grand happen?

Chambray strikes again

 chambray dress and shoes: Old Navy // bracelets: gifted from Africa

I went for a little shopping trip the other night, I mainly went just to look for a new client, but came out with a couple things myself. My first stop was Old Navy and I was actually surprised at how little I found. Old Navy is where I go to find most of my basics, and I usually walk out with things by the arm load. I did manage to score this awesome chambray dress and let me tell you, it does not disappoint. This dress could be the most comfy dress I own now and the fabric is so unbelievably soft. I am already thinking of all the ways to wear it but chose the first look to be super simple. Just the dress. When getting ready for my job in the mornings, simplistic is usually the way I go. The shoes I found were also super comfy while being on my feet most of the day without being too fussy. I am loving that I added two more great basics to my closet and excited to be working towards a closet that I love.

I am also so excited to announce more about my newest styling endeavor. I have decided to pursue a small part time styling business. I want to help others be able to use all of the clothes they already own to the best of their abilities. I am excited about showing others how to style all the items already in their closet and add a few to make them feel confident when getting ready each and every day. Please email me if you are interested in working with me. I would be ecstatic to have you! You can check out my "SHOP" page for more information and a complete price list. 

At this moment this styling business is only open to those in close proximity to me, but for those out of the area, please consider me to be a stylist for you through KeatonRow. I would love to style a look online for you!

dress and necklace (similar): Forever 21 // shoes (similar) : Target 

After this swamped weekend, it feels so good to be figuring out some new ideas for my blog. I am working on being more consistent with my outfit posts while also showing you where you can find items like these. We had a blast at our friend's wedding this weekend, but I was dancing so much that I forgot to take a picture of my outfit. So here is the breakdown. The shoes lasted for a good little bit, but I eventually changed to some sandals to dance the night away. The dress was perfect for this outdoor reception on a spring night. It was also so inexpensive ($15) and easy to mix with pieces I already had. I cannot wait to use it in other ways. 

So to catch up with #BlogEveryDayInMay...

something that I miss... I miss Texas. I miss the days in college when all I had to worry about were my grades, I often wish I hadn't been in such a rush to join the real world. I am happy with many aspects of my life at the moment, but I just think it would have been nice to not be in such a hurry. To enjoy those moments and the people in them, because it is on rare occasion, if ever, that I will get to see them again.

a public apology... I apologize to my readers, for not being consistent in my posting. I am going to be better about it in the future and I realize if I want this blog to grow (and I do) I must be consistent. Make time, treat it like a job, a job that I love.

Thanks for sticking around folks.

shorts: hand-me-downs // shirt: GoFish // boots: BCBG 

I am loving the mix of long-sleeves and shorts this time of year and this shirt is perfect for an evening out when you want to be comfortable yet still show a trendier side. This top has also been seen here, and I believe it is best worn with a more fitted bottom, both of my cases have been gray, but I think the red would also look great with black leggings or regular blue jeans. 

excuse my waving hand.

WHEW!

What a weekend! It is Sunday night as I write this and my heart is full with the activities of the weekend. Friday was spent with friends at dinner and out and about in downtown Athens. Although it was a late night for this "old" lady, I had the best of time talking, laughing, and having a few drinks with some pretty fun people. It was Twilight weekend in Athens, and for those of you outside of Georgia, that is a bike race that zooms around downtown once a year. It draws huge crowds to the area and it is so fun every year. Saturday, I worked the morning then went to a small festival in my town that showcases local talent with my sister. We had the most amazing ice cream cone and then headed home for a short afternoon rest. Saturday night Andy and I loaded up the SPP truck and headed to a tractor pull for the night. It ran pretty late, but we sold lots of shirts and hats and it was a successful evening all around. Today was spent in church, followed by dinner with Andy's family and then the rain forced us inside for the afternoon and I seriously took the best nap of my life. All in all it was a fun filled, but restful weekend that left me refreshed and ready for the week. What were you all up to this weekend? Later Gators, Montana
