Happy Wednesday, friends! Today, my little girl Ava takes center stage to introduce this adorable "These Cheeks Though" onsie and traveling head wrap from See Lacey Sew. Haha, this is actually very appropriate for her. I remember when I had an ultrasound on the day she was born, the technician said she had big cheeks and how pinchable they'll be. She could not have been more right! This onsie also comes in a short sleeve version and is made out of 100% cotton to be soft against a baby's skin. I love the gold glitter writing on this. Gold anything always catches my eye and elevates any outfit, even ones for babies! This road map head wrap is so cute too. Since I love to travel and always seem to be bitten by the travel bug, this could not have been more perfect. I think little ones look adorable with the big bows in their hair. All of the products on See Lacey Sew are hand made with care and range from babies clothes and accessories to home decor. Custom ideas are always welcome too!
A little update on Ava, she'll be 6 months on February 4th. I still cannot believe how fast time is going with her. She loves to roll onto her stomach now, which made taking these photos a bit of a chore. In between each one she would roll over and not want to be put back onto her back lol. She's also started teething. None of her little teeth have popped through yet, but her gums must be sore. She chews on everything, even all of my fingers! She also started eating some solids like baby oatmeal and pureed fruits and veggies. I think the next big thing will be crawling. She'll keep me on my toes for sure!

I took these photos while the storm Jonas was going on outside. Note the snowy pictures of me twirling around haha. I wanted to share one of my beauty go-to's when it comes to hair care. When I want a nice beachy type wave that feels very a la Lauren Conrad, I always reach for the Sultra 1.5in Curling Rod. This gives a beautiful relaxed curl that looks polished and smooth. If you want a tighter curl, I would go with the 1 in. The curling rod has an even heat of 380 degree from end to end locking in your curl and smoothing out the cuticle. I love that added benefit since it even held my curl while the snow was coming down on me. Refinery29 and Rank and Style even named the Bombshell Curling Wand the "Best Curling Wand."
How adorable are these butterfly ear crawlers from Humble Chic?! My mom absolutely loved butterflies so I'll always have a soft spot for them. They have a fun elegant feel with just the right amount of whimsy. They're made of 10k gold vermeile and 925 sterling silver. Gold and blush is another one of my favorite color combos (no surprise there haha!) and this blouse is no exception to that rule. It's a lovely shade of petal pink with a classic shape making it one of those closet staples you could pair with anything ranging from skinny jeans, to a pencil or tulle skirt like I'm wearing. Humble Chic is giving 15% off of your orders with the code LIKEIT.

Happy Monday, friends! I hope everyone enjoyed their weekend! Winter storm Jonas came through on Saturday and left about 6 inches of snow for my area. Not as bad as some areas got so I'm definitely thankful for that. It was just enough to have some fun in. Anyone else deal with Jonas this weekend?
I've become a huge fan of pairing red and pink together lately and lets be honest, you can never go wrong with stripes! This is really a fabulous combo to stand out in and reminds me of the Kate Spade saying, "Live Colorfully." This striped skirt feels wonderful on. I was pleasantly surprised at the quality and how well it fit me. It's one of those pieces you'll be glad to have since you can wear it so many different ways. Another item I recently got was this wood watch from Jord. It's made from maple wood with a lavender face, thought it seems to be in between a pink and purely hue. Right up my alley! It's beautifully crafted with swarovski crystal markers and sapphire crystal glass. I'm literally blown away!

It's no secret that I love adding a bit of sparkle to my everyday looks. While I have no problem with it, some may find it hard to add something that is usually worn at night into the day light hours. To start, only have one or two sparkly pieces such as a belt or necklace, but nothing more than that. Anything that sparkles or glitters has a very girly feminine feel to it. Try adding in some masculine pieces like an oxford shirt or a t-shirt. The whole idea is to keep the look grounded. Also, try to stay within the same color family during the day. It has a work appropriate feel, but with a little added jazz. Neutrals also work fabulously well. For my look above I stuck with all neutrals, a button down blouse, and kept the green theme of the skirt in all of my accessories. This green skirt would look great with a blue chambray shirt and black heels.

Happy Thursday, all! Today I'm sharing a classic casual look that I love to wear during my down time. I've been looking for an army green coat for some time and never really took the plunge to get one until now. I love the length, color, and collar on this one. When it gets really cold outside I always like the pop the collar up. It was windy when I was photographing this, and also only 19 degrees!, but I felt warm. The deep pockets kept my hands from getting hit with the biting wind as well as the length keeping the rest of me shielded. A cute little side story, my grandmother always told my dad that if a jacket was long enough and covered your bum, then it was sure to keep you warm and toasty. It was all about the length with her haha. Anyway, this outfit definitely has those "cool girl" vibes written all over it making it an awesome choice when you want to appear put together without trying too hard.

One of my last Valentine's Day looks is how we usually spend the holiday. Cuddled up inside being cozy and enjoying some sweet treats, wine, and dinner. I've always loved making some type of dessert from frosted brownies, cupcakes, chocolate covered strawberries, and cookies. Even though we may be staying in, I still like to get dressed up in a skirt and a comfy sweater. This midi skirt has just the right amount of flare and pretty pink and red roses, which are perfect for the holiday. Valentine's Day would not be complete without little Ava! She's my special Valentine now. I bought the dress she's wearing when I was still pregnant and thought how beautiful she would be in it for Valentine's Day. Thankfully she fits into it haha. The wine I'm drinking is my absolute favorite. It's from Bully Hill called Ravat 51. We always pick some up when we visit the Finger Lakes. It's sweet with a pineapple taste. The Beauty and the Beast plates and wine decanter were picked up on our last trip to Disney World in 2013. I bring them out for special occasions. It's my favorite Disney Princess movie!

Happy Monday, friends! I hope everyone enjoyed their weekend. Does anyone else watch Downton Abbey? My dad and I have a tradition where we have a little party to watch the show, which is in its final season. We have some snacks and a little wine while we watch and then discuss it afterwards. It's always a highlight of my weekend and a great way to end it each week.
I'm in love with this glam sequin dress. I always adore a good sparkle! This dress has a double layer so the sequins do not scratch your skin. Every inch is covered in little sequins, and I mean every inch. It's a beautifully made dress with such intricate detail. The long sleeves make it a great going out option for the winter with some tights. I'm usually all about fit and flare styles, but every now and then its nice to wear a sheath for a more stream lined look. What really got me was the stand up collar. I'm a sucker for them or any kind of collar really (peter pan I'm looking at you!) There's also an alluring open back to the dress that feels so captivating.

Happy Friday, lovelies! We made it. Another week down and another weekend to celebrate. If you follow me on instagram (@amandabrezovsky) then you know I've started a 30 day detox cleanse that I'll be documenting every now and then with a final blog post at the end. I'm pretty excited and have already seen some results. I will let you know how it all goes!
What's not to love about this outfit?! Stripes, bow details, and darling pink. Before anyone asks, yes, I was cold and my feet were cold too haha. This striped top and pink midi skirt are actually a set that you get. I love that since I can style the pieces separately now too. I've already worn the striped top with another striped skirt I have and this bow belt. Follow the sizing carefully online. Everyone said to order up two sizes, but I found only sizing up one size would have been fine. The bow belt is absolutely amazing! It's elastic so it stretches and matches with just about anything. I cannot get enough of it. The bow pumps match perfectly to the belt too. Sizing for the shoes are European, but there is a conversion for US sizes available. I'm a US 6 1/2 and got a European 37.
I hope everyone has a great weekend!

Yesterday we had out first snowfall and it was absolutely magical. There's nothing like the beauty of fresh new fallen snow. While I'm not too fond of the cold weather, I do love to take snow photos. They've always been my favorite. I've actually been waiting for the snow to wear this outfit. It's completely unlike my area to not have any snow until now. I got this red puffer jacket and these camel booties in preparation for the wintry weather and they did not disappoint! I was as snug as a bug in them. The knit fold over is what caught my eye on the booties, which can also unfold into a higher boot. I love how the red jacket pops against the snowy background. The bright color can brighten any drab day!

Oh sequins, how I love thee. I'm always looking for ways to incorporate a bit of sparkle into my looks whether for everyday, a holiday, or special night out. This would be another great look for Valentine's Day. The sequin skirt is so glam and pretty, while the creamy white sweater keeps the look grounded and keeps you warm during the colder months. This skirt would also be great with a bright vibrant top, but for this I wanted to keep everything on the softer side. A nice little side note, wearing sparkly pieces can evoke a sense of joy. Worn with grounded pieces (think denim, a cable knit sweater, or something casual,) sequin pieces make every day a party!

Happy Monday, all! If there is one color that without a doubt puts a smile on my face, it's pink. I love this casual put together look that's bright and cheery, not to mention warm. The cowl neck adds another fun dimension to the sweater. Does anyone else think of Batman when they hear cowl haha? Anyway, I layered this with a chambray shirt for some effortless cool and topped it off with a blush blazer for some sophistication and warmth. I cannot even tell you how many times I grab for this blazer. It's my most used one for sure. These pink cat eye sunnies from Freyrs were a nice touch to complete the look. They also come in a fun purple shade. The colors I wear most in sunnies are pink, tortoise, and black. All three of these pair with just about any outfit color combos.
I hope everyone enjoyed their weekend. Mine was spent doing errands basically. Nothing too exciting! We did take a nice drive down to Jim Thorpe for a few hours. If you're not familiar with the area, it's a little town that has an old time main street with shops and restaurants. It's also a big outdoors area with biking, hiking, and white water rafting. Definitely a fun place to visit.

Happy Friday, all! The one thing I do actually like about winter is being able to layer different items. I've always found outfits to be more dynamic and interesting when layering is involved. Lets be honest too, all of those layers keep us warm and cozy! You can never go wrong with a red and black combo. It always feels classic and chic. This coat from Relaxfeel has a beautiful bright red color that instantly puts you in a better mood. It's a nice heavy material and incredibly soft. The perfect topper to any outfit. I'm in love with these sunnies too. I've mentioned this before, but there is just something about a mirrored glass that gets me. I always gravitate towards them. Also, the larger size reminds me of Jackie O.
I hope everyone has a great weekend! I'm not exactly sure what I'll be doing yet except the usual running around getting some errands done.

Hello and happy Thursday, friends! I hope the first week of the new year has been going well for everyone. It's been crazy cold here in PA with temps dipping down to 9 degrees or below with the wind chill. Starting today though, we're supposed to be in the 40s until the end of the week. I'm not complaining about that! I just wish the weather would make up its mind, and in doing so, make up its mind to be warmer haha ;)
Does anyone ever feel a little blue after the holidays are over? I definitely do. There is so much excitement in the air and then all of the sudden its just over. I've started looking forward to the next holiday I'll be celebrating, which is Valentine's Day. Over the next couple of weeks, I'll be throwing in some outfit ideas ranging from a cozy night celebrating at home to going out on the town with your sweetie. Justin and I used to go out for dinner, but over the past couple of years we've stayed in and made our own steak dinner. This dress I'm wearing above from Shein would be a great option for celebrating Valentine's Day with its pink and red colors. I love the pleating throughout and the fab little collar. Pink and red are usually thought to be clashing colors, but to me they compliment one another and really pop.

If I had to describe my style in three words it would be classic, feminine, and romantic. One word that usually never comes to mind is edgy. I've been trying to go a bit out of my comfort zone and try some different things. For me, this is about as edgy as I get! I have to say that I felt so comfortable and really liked the look. These leopard booties, swoon worthy just about sum them up, are a go-to for me when I want some statement shoes that really speak for themselves. The khaki turtleneck kept me feeling so warm and I love the color. Though its called khaki, I think it looks more like praline, which is even better. The color feels unique. My friend Alison actually took these photos for me during a photo shoot I was doing for her so thank you!

Hello, friends! I hope everyone enjoyed the New Years holiday and had a fabulous weekend. There's nothing like the new year to think of new beginnings and a fresh start with nothing holding you back. I've always loved the idea that the whole year is ahead of me and anything truly is possible if you work hard enough at achieving your dreams.
I'm always leaning towards pastel colors when it comes to my outfits (and life haha!), but also love the idea of a chic all black look. Gray has always been a favorite of mine to pair with black ensembles, especially this coat from Shein. Can we talk about how glam the faux fur cuffs are?! I seriously felt like a classic movie star with them. Since the coat is a lighter shade of gray, it would also pair well with my beloved pastels and lighter hues. These Freyers sunnies also remind me of the Karen Walker ones I've been wearing, but at a fraction of the cost! Mirrored shades have become a fast favorite of mine this past year. I always grab for mirrored ones when I see them now.
