Good morning and Happy Wednesday! With Thanksgiving only a week away and Christmas following closely after that, we are entering into transitional fashion season. It’s still the weather and season for fall styles, but it’s fun to throw in some festive looks here and there. The good news is that I have both options to share with you today. Let’s look at some chic transitional looks ranging from casual to dressy and everything in between. These looks were all featured in the Chico’s live segments that Laura and I were a part of, so if you want to get additional fit and feel notes, you can find them in my Instagram feed. Many of these items are on sale right now, so take advantage of these deals!
Holiday parties are starting soon, so it’s important to have your hostess gifts ready to go. Christmas will be here before you know it! That’s why today I’m sharing Gifts for the Hostess, Friends and Neighbors. These are also great gifts to give to the person who has everything. You also may find ideas to give whoever is hosting Thanksgiving this year. You can click on the items in the image above or links to shop. Be sure and scroll all the way down for even more gift ideas. I am also spotlighting a few charities in case you want to honor someone with a donation.

Lately, I decided to start trying to layer my jewelry more. I’ve noticed how chic and trendy it looks, so I had to experiment! It took me a while to get the hang of it but I’m definitely sold on layering necklaces since it really elevates a casual look. So today I want to share my findings on how to layer necklaces. If I can do it, you can too!
Happy Monday! How was your weekend? Ours was relaxing and fun. We finished the Assistant Office in our home (reveal coming soon), went to the State Fair of Texas and just got caught up with odds and ins around the house. Let’s talk about one of my favorite brands – Lafayette 148! It’s classic, modern and chic. I’ve highlighted the brand previously on the blog here. So it seemed about time to do a brand focus since I always feel my best and most stylish when wearing it! Today, I am sharing my latest look from them that I pulled together for the fall season. Even though the weather may not reflect the season here in Texas, I can feel it coming soon. So I need to be prepared!
This dark teal color is one of fall’s biggest color trends! It’s the perfect mix of blue and green. I love this teal dress because it reminds me of Downton Abbey style. Actually, I recently saw the new Downtown Abbey movie and LOVED it. You can get tickets to see it here. I thought about wearing this to the premiere, but instead opted for something more casual. But this ruffle-trimmed dress with puff sleeves, a high neck, empire waist, back tie, fluttery hem and gorgeous deep tone make it the best dress to highlight the fall color trend of teal!
Hi friends!This wasn’t going to be a blog post but I got so many compliments on this look for a recent luncheon, that I decided to show you how I approach buying a designer dress for an event. I am super practical about what I add to my wardrobe and want to make sure that if I sink a lot of money into an item, it will serve me well. Check out my method for incorporating designer fashion into your wardrobe for less!
My love for Olly runs deep! I take their vitamin gummies on a daily basis, and I don’t think I could make it without them. I’ve talked about my daily vitamin routine and why I love Olly so much in this post. So you can imagine that I was very excited when I heard that they were releasing a new collection of Olly Immunity vitamins!
When I got an e-mail from Charlotte Tilbury Beauty asking me if I would be the model for their Master Class at Nordstrom, I literally thought to myself “they must have the wrong person”. Surely they were trying to book a real super model, not plain ole’ lifestyle blogger Tanya Foster. Nope, sure enough, I hit the jackpot and they wanted me! Celebrity Make-Up Artist Barri King and Education Manager Beck West flew in from California to demonstrate the brand new Airbrush Flawless Foundation and Pillow Talk look. I learned so much that I have to share!
Denim is a year-round staple that’s certainly worth investing in. Although denim is classic, it also evolves each season with the trends – from skinny to straight to flare. Denim can even be spiced up with unique embellishments, colors, prints and differing lengths as the seasons change. So what is my favorite of this season’s denim trends you may ask…
Happy Tuesday! Today I thought I would give you an updated version of this post that resonated with my readers when I published it a couple of years ago. So I’m answering a question I get a lot: What’s in your bag? And while we’re at it, I’m going over 5 bags worth the price.
Recently, I shared with y’all my style tips for a classic look in this blog post. So you know that I prefer to keep my looks simple and stylish with classic and versatile pieces. One of the most versatile pieces in my closet is always a white tee and a black tee like this. I pair them with everything from jeans to shorts and skirts every season. So today I’m sharing my favorite two ways to wear this black tee…

Yes…you can order almost anything on Walmart.com and get it shipped to you within 24 hours. How great is that!? Below, you’ll find a ton of back to school essentials that you can order online to make your life easier.
Can you believe fall begins this month? Now I know that doesn’t quite mean the same here in Texas, as we will probably have higher temps through October! But the next season is still approaching quickly, so I am working on freshening up my wardrobe. One piece that has done this is this aubergine dressI’m wearing. It’s the perfect staple for fall, and the color aubergine is going to be a big color trend this year.
Happy TUESDAY! Happy September! How was your holiday weekend? Ours was great because it consisted of a lot of lounging, binge watching TV and getting over our jet lag from Ireland. All in all, I’d say that is a a perfect weekend! Today I am back with another “behind the scenes look” at a video shoot that I did for JCPenney. This time it involved focusing sole on The Salon by InStyle inside JCPenney. Check out the video by clicking HERE.
