Oh how I've missed y'all and my blogging. The last month has just been utter chaos. Between the holidays, Christmas shopping, organizing and planning a couple of parties and lots and lots of sickness I've been living in comfy clothes and repeat outfits. Plus with it still being dark early it really does make it harder for me to get some nice shots in.
But the last month hasn't been all madness. I've been busy making some more fun signs for both my house, family and Sassy Designs. I'm really hoping I can grow my little hobby into more of a small business this year. So if you follow me on Instagram ya'll have probably seen a lot of what I've been working on. Other than that I've been keeping up with my favorite bloggers on Instagram as well and trying to check out ya'lls pages as much as I can.
So for my first blog outfit of the New Year, I wanted to show/brag about this amazing new poncho I just got. My husband and I decided to take the kids out and do some exploring around the Dayton area to check out these cute small towns. And oh boy that may have been a mistake! So many amazing stores were found and an amazing new boutique, Zebra Girl. First off, I won't lie, the name grabbed me first. Because hello! who doesn't love zebras?! Secondly it was set in this super cute house. Once I walked in the owner was very welcoming and I instantly fell in love with just about everything she had in there. But my eyes couldn't stop looking at this beautiful poncho hanging up. And once I tried it on I knew I had to have it. The poncho trend is big right now and I can totally see why. This one in particular is so soft and warm and to me just flatters you. I don't have to worry about sucking in my belly!
Since the poncho is a big statement item, I kept everything else simple. My new polka dot wristlet came from Target and was a Christmas gift from my husband (he listens really good!). And I love my distressed jeans with my knee high boots. To me it really pulls together this look! Needless to say this will most likely be a staple item for me to get through the upcoming cold months.
What's your favorite new item that you either bought for yourself or received as a gift?
