Gosh, how is it already August 21st? The year 2024 has flown by. Let’s do something fun for today. I have some August Instagram round-up pics to share, plus I’m taking this opportunity just to get caught up with you. After all, this is our “coffee time” where I tell you what’s happening in my world. So grab a large cup of joe and let’s get started. As you can tell, Jalapeno Cheddar Biscuit (Cheddar for short) is doing great and living his best life He’s already 8 months old!

Life Lately
Instagram Round-Ups are my favorite because I get to show you some outfit and product pics that actually never get published anywhere. Sometimes they will get uploaded into the LikeToKnow.it app (follow @tanyafosterblog). This is a great option if you shop from your phone. LTK is the affiliate link app I use to link everything I am talking about in an Instagram picture. It makes shopping with me much easier. They have video content on the app. It’s a great way for you to see how the clothes move.
Lately I have been enjoying summer and getting to travel a bit. I have an upcoming spring collection with Ming Wang, so I have been to market with them both in NYC and Atlanta. It has been such an eye-opening experience to see what goes on behind the scenes of major retailers. In case you missed it, Laura and I went to Palm Beach last month for a work retreat and had a fabulous time. I actually won Bingo at The Colony Hotel! When does that ever happen? We had so much fun!
This month I also got to advance screen It Ends With Us with a small group of my loyal followers. I highly recommend! They did a great job of adapting the book to film. If you haven’t read It Ends With Us by Colleen Hoover, then I highly recommend it. Or, if you have, then you also need to read It Starts With Us. I read both in a matter of days!

August Instagram Round-Up
Let’s get started with the cutest everyday dress! This sleeveless print dress (size S) is a must-have in your late summer wardrobe. I love the unique print and the flirty pleated hem. Just add a denim jacket for cooler fall days.
I don’t know about y’all, but I live in lounge sets when I am home. This striped quarter zip sweatshirt and shorts set (size S) is sooo soft and comfortable. I especially love the shorts for summertime.
Ok how fabulous is this floral dress?? It looks just like a Zimmerman dress, but it’s under $100! Perfect for a luncheon or even a bridal or baby shower. I am in a size M for length.
You need easy dresses for the pre-fall season. This striped midi dress (size S) is just gorgeous. Plus, it has an open back that is flattering. I also love this mixed media dress (size S) going into fall. It’s the easiest dress to dress up or down no matter what event you have to attend.
Tops on tops! I love all of these beautiful colors and styles of blouses. They’re all great colors for end of summer and early fall. Denim is still popular this season, so you definitely need this denim blouse. You also need to update your jeans. These straight leg jeans are honestly some of the best jeans that I own. They’re so flattering and comfortable! I wear a size S in the blouses and the jeans fit TTS.

Hope you have a great rest of your week! Just like my nightly Instagram stories, I will leave you with a little bit of humor for the day… 🙂

My daughter and I are both heartbroken about Ralph too. So sorry Tanya. Love your blog, even when I don’t take the time to comment. Your my fav!
I just wanted to let you know that I’m sorry to hear about Ralph. It’s so hard when our pets are sick. They are family members. On a brighter note, I love your closet. That leopard carpet is outstanding!
Loved your makeup tutorial! So glad I found your IG and blog – love your style and it is so helpful to see what works on someone else who is the same age!
Wow! This post is chock full of great information, so thank you. Really enjoyed your makeup tutorial-it’s always a good idea to freshen up your routine and try new items. Thinking of you re Ralph–RIP for sure. How about info on suggestions for investment pieces (shoes, bags, dresses, jackets) and closet organization?
I need a tutorial on walking shorts/longer shorts….what looks good on which body types! I’m afraid the days of short shorts are long gone for me! HA!
Sooo sad to hear about Ralph…obviously there was nothing you could do except keep him from suffering…Very glad to see that Ruby Lou is adapting!!!
So sorry about Ralph, losing a pet is so painful! Thank you for all you share, it helps us all!❤️❤️
Enjoyed the makeup video. Thanks for sharing shades and colors of your cosmetics.
I am so sorry about Ralph, Tanya. That is heartbreaking. 🙁

I am so sorry to hear about Ralph. I know you cared for him with all your heart! The photos of your two kitties are really, really cute! I enjoy your blog and it’s obvious that you put so much of your energy into it. Thank you Tanya for all the great ideas and inspiration! I am at “that age” where I am never sure what I should be wearing – Thank you for pointing me in the right direction!
First of all, my condolences to you for losing Ralph. I loved watching the two kitties, but my heart will now be with Ruby (and of course, Sparky and Max). I truly enjoyed your makeup video and all the good ideas. You keep me inspired and outfitted too. You are one of a few bloggers I watch and my fav. I’m glad your business is growing and you’re getting an assistant. I know this will be a big help to you. Thanks for all the context. I really appreciate it.
I’m so sorry about your sweet Ralph. Our cat died a few years ago of the same thing and it was devastating for our whole family. Prayers to you
Just watched your spiralizer demo on Insta and ordered it! Although I don’t have Pete’s famous recipe, I always have Marcella Hazan’s in my freezer, so I’ll be ready to go. Thanks for the tip, Tanya!
P.S. I also love the button down white with jeans look — stunningly casual, yet glam!
This is a really interesting blog
Bahaha! 🙂
