God Gave me Curves

If you know me, you know my love for Kiki La'Rue . I absolutely love everything about this boutique . They're on point with their customer service. The styling of the outfits is a huge plus too! We all love the little notes on our order form as well. Too many great things to list. I could go on and on! I'm not just saying this because she's one of my BFFs! I'm one of her customers as well, so believe me when I say, best shopping experience ever! 
One of the things I love to do is show some love for the curvier women out there. God has blessed me with.... Uh hum... How should I say it.... Some junk in the trunk. Ha! I have a size 12 waist but a size 14 hips and booty. I love that KLR has so many options for us big booty girls as well. I have so many different pieces from KLR that make me feel good in my own skin. I can't express it enough how nice it is to shop online and feel comfortable with what you're buying.
Here are a few of my faves.... Top to bottom.

12 Random Facts

I love reading random facts about people I follow on IG or blogs I follow. I thought I would come up with some facts myself. I had to laugh at some of these as I was writing them. Hope you laugh too. Ha!

1) I'm deathly afraid of spiders, even tiny ones! I know the little ones can't hurt me but I just can't help it.
2) I'm obsessed with Chevron print. Can you tell?! ha!
3) My husband proposed to me at my HS graduation. Crazy to think I got my diploma and a ring all in one night. One of my favorite memories for sure!
4) I have OCD which is a lot to live up to for me. I hate things on my counter tops and I notice anything out of place as soon as I walk into a room. Annoying at times! Haha
5) I love Mexican food and I could eat it every day.
6) I'm a reality show junky, especially Real Housewives of where ever!
7) Mint and teal are my favorite colors.
8) When I was younger I rocked a mullet. (Not my choice....my mom's of course)
9) I can't leave Target without buying a cart full!
10) I can't leave my house unless I vacuum and sweep first.
11) I have the BEST friends ever!
12) I'm super sensitive and kinda hate that about myself. I cry over anything. Hahaha

Thought I would share the picture of my proposal. This picture says a lot. <3 Nine years of marriage and three little boys. I couldn't ask for more.


What's a random fact about you?

OOTD and a little weekend recap

Happy Monday friends! What a busy but fun weekend we had. It was The Bass Derby this weekend where we live. Fire truck rides, carnival, parade, and lots of fair food! My boys rode rides til they were about to fall over. They had a blast! My husband and I grew up going to this festival so it's fun to see our kids enjoy it the way we used too.

OOTD ~ So I've been loving leggings lately but I have big thighs so I struggle with the decision to wear them or not. Well...... I just went for it. Floral Leggings are a huge trend right now and I thought there was no way I could pull them off...... But I gave them a try anyways.
Cardigan- Target
Piko top in Salmon, Floral Leggings, and necklace (both leggings and necklace are sold out) - Kiki La'Rue
Black Boots- Steve Madden Cadence
Bag- Phillip Lim for Target





Thanks for stopping by. Xoxoxo - Jessica

OOTD

With it being so early in Fall I like to take advantage of the cooler days to wear my Lenore Scarf from Kiki La'Rue. This scarf is the softest scarf ever! It's light weight enough to wear right now where I live. We're still not too cold but cool enough to break out my scarves. I own 6 colors in this scarf because I love it so much. Right now I'm really into pairing mint and navy together. What do you know.... I just happen to have a Mint SS Piko in my closet (surprised?) hahaha!  I paired my Mint Piko with my Navy Lenore, both from Kiki La'Rue. I love me some Pikos! I paired some black leggings from Target and my tan Steve Madden Caddence Boots with it. Ok let's talk about my bag...... I absolutely LOVE my Phillip Lim bag. It was so hard to find this baby! Thanks to one of my BFF's Nelly for finding it on IG! Whoop whoop! Target out did themselves with teaming up with Phillip Lim. That's a must for all my outfits lately. Love how well it all came together.
