Kayla Weber Art

You guys, I’ve found my favorite artist, and I didn’t have to go too far to find her. Straight out of Lexington, KY, the gorgeous and talented Kayla is taking the art world by storm, one painting at a time. Her unique and colorful horse paintings are one of the many reasons why I love her work.

She draws inspiration from her travels all around the world, and I think she has such an inspiring spirit. Although we’ve never actually crossed paths in person, I feel like I know her and would totally enjoy her presence, just from connecting in the social media / blogging world.

You all have to go check her out, and get yourself a one-of-a-kind print for your home. These prints are absolutely divine, and I know we will move them all around our house for years to come.

Doll by Dress & Dwell

I’m gearing up for fall with the help of Dress & Dwell’s new collection, Doll. This collection has the perfect mix of southern and city pieces, and features the best colors and styles for the fall season. Doll by Dress & Dwell will definitely become a regular feature on Lex What Wear, because I am obsessed with all of my new goodies. This sweater is lightweight and ideal for the seasonal transition. My skirt is absolutely adorable, and can be styled so many different ways. I love the entire look together, with the earrings and sneakers. It’s a casual yet, fun fall in Nashville outfit.

What To Do In New York City

PART ONE

I just returned from one of the BEST trips ever to my second home, New York City. After living there for almost three years, this was my first return to the city of dreams. My trip was nothing short of magical, from reuniting with friends, to exploring new hot spots. I honestly wish I could have just one more day, but for now, I’m busy planning my next big trip back home.

I used to get this question almost weekly when I lived in Manhattan: What should I do in New York City? So I thought I’d start sharing my tips and tricks of a former local, and the best spots for different occassions. Because this could get lengthy, I’m starting off with a PART ONE of WHAT TO DO IN NEW YORK CITY. I’ll be back with more, so don’t hesitate to ask questions.

Lastly, shop my latest trip’s outfits with all of the links below. And yes, I did wear these Comfortiva Sneakers every single day. Enjoy friends!

Favorite Labor Day Sales

There’s no denying, I love a good Labor Day SALE! Who doesn’t? We get a long weekend, to do whatever we wish, and that typically involves shopping for me. It’s my job to keep you guys informed on the BEST deals and the BEST sales of Labor Day. It’s also my job to do a little shopping, too. I definitely intend to take advantage of this list and so should you.
