Remixing A Look & Favorite Reads

Wednesday, February 13, 2019

Today I have a #twofer post for you!

First up....I'm doing a style remix with The Blended Blog.



When I saw this prompt I thought this would be a piece of cake.
I was wrong.
Turns out I don't have a whole lot in my closet that my friends have in their closets.
I have been looking through picture after picture to find something to recreate for today.
I realized that my friends own a lot of pinks, florals, and pretty much all the girly things.
I have none of that in my closet.

And then it hit me!
Sticking with the Love Loop theme, I am going to recreate a look that Lana @ My New Happy has shared with you in the past :)

I am going to share with you a few different ways you could recreate Lana's look.
All options use the same base colors, just slightly remixed based on what I have in my closet.

Option #1
with a gingham button down top (similar),
my white skinny jeans (similar),
and those fun red booties.


Option #2
A chambray/denim shirt (similar) thrown over a striped tank or tee (similar),
paired with my red skinny cords (similar),


Option #3
I paired a plaid top/flannel (similar) with a solid puffer vest (similar),
my go-to jeans (similar) and white Converse.


Almost every piece I shared could be swapped out for another piece.
Do you have any of the pieces Lana is wearing in her original look?
Do you have any of the pieces I shared in my recreations?
I would love to see how you would recreate Lana's Look!


Next up....I'm sharing some of my favorite books/authors with Shay & Erika!




I have always loved the Tori Spelling books!


Honestly, if you grew up in the 90's (and watched Beverly Hills 90210 😉) I really think you would love all of the her books!


I am not one who enjoys reading books, but I am trying really hard to change that.
That is tricky because there isn't a whole lot of things I want to read about.
I did read/listen to Kind is the new Classy by Candace Cameron Bure and LOVED IT!!!


So much so that I ordered two more of her books.



I actually already own her style book, but haven't read it yet.
Add that to the to-do list!





Another book that I listened to was A Tribe Called Bliss.


That book has truly changed my outlook/mindset!
Honestly, if there is one book you pick up after reading this post I feel it should be this one!


I was gifted a few books for Christmas/birthday as well.



I also received the new Justin Timberlake book,




and the Whiskey in a Teacup cookbook by Reese Witherspoon.


Those last two have stories within the recipes.

Notice a theme here?

I am not one to read something that is a made up.
I need real life.




And I have to know who the author is before I even think about picking up the book.

So what book recs do you have for me?
What are your favorite types of books to read?
I would love to hear from you in the comments below :)

Thanks for stopping by!

Linking up with Nancy as well :)

XOXO ~ Vanessa
