Keeping It Casual - 6 (Link Up)

I've been a 'jeans' kind of girl for as long as I can remember. I honestly like to be comfortable (who doesn't?) so jeans will always be my go-to look. For some reason, wearing a skirt, a dress, or even dress pants takes too much effort sometimes.






Since I am linking up with Because Shanna Said So for Random Wednesdays, I thought I would share a few random facts about me that you may not know:

  • I'm obsessed with cleaning my house. I'm cleaning literally every single day and my husband keeps telling me to stop it already.
  • I hate beer and football and I live in the South. You might wonder how that is possible...
  • I can't straighten my left leg when I lift it past 90 degrees. For a dancer, this is not good.
  • I've had two babies and am ready for the third but nearly have a panic attack when I think about labor. Don't ask me why. I haven't had any labor and delivery issues but I think I'm just a controlling person and that is one part of your life you definitely can't control.
  • I love burgers (and sweet potato fries) with all of my heart. 
  • I've tried to eat healthy and it hasn't worked out. 

Make sure you link-up your casual looks below, follow my blog, and please link back to my blog in your post. Have a great day!

  6. Fabulous outfit! I love casual jeans paired with elegant chic tops and accessories!
    This is what I'd wear exactly as you present it. Already pinned :-)

    A few things in common: I do clean a lot and I don't drink beer (even I am from Bavaria!) but love wine. However, I love European football (soccer)!

  16. OMG Amy I found your five things hysterical because we are literally complete opposites..except the labor thing because my placenta abrupted with my second..so no more babies! But I despise cleaning..my husband gets on me about the opposite! I love beer and football, and burgers make me sick because I don't eat meat and I eat super healthy..maybe we should hang out so we could rub off on each other.. ha, ha!

  17. This reminds me that I haven't work my boyfriend jeans in awhile! Need to pull those out! I love your outfit and I am obsessed with cleaning lately too! I can't stop (which is weird, because I hate cleaning and I get in a bad mood when I'm doing it, but I can't stand my house being dirty). :) I don't have any kids but I'm ready for the first and I am terrified of labor! It makes me almost not want to have kids!

  20. I pretty much wear jeans every day. I think I only own other pants because of blogging. Seriously, jeans are literally like a 24/7 thing to me. I love how you wore them here, especially with that top.

    ReplyDelete
  21. Boyfriend jeans are so comfortable. And you made them look so chic with your sandals and your small leopard belt! Cute outfit. Burgers and sweet potatoes fries are definitely a favorite. And cleaning your house all the time?? Wish we had that tendency!!!

  39. Love your outfit! Classic black and some leopard... can't go wrong!! The thought of labor sends me into a panic as well (even though I have no children yet). I have high hopes for lots of drugs and a C section.. but then there is the whole scar thing...
    Also, if you want, you can come clean my house.

  48. Strangely, black is by far my favorite color to wear. There is something so chic about a simple black shirt. This looks great - perfect for going out for date night or hitting the mall with the girls. Love it all!

  49. I am a jeans girl too - through and through. But when you can dress up jeans and make them look as fab as you do in this outfit - how could you not. Right?!
