Early Spring Uniform

JACKET | TOP similar | JEANS | BOOTS

I now declare this outfit my early spring uniform. I couldn’t love this pairing more. First let me say, I’m a huge fan of anything with a Peter Pan collar. I think it’s so chic, while still looking vintage. I also love styling this boyfriend blazer as many ways as I can. Today the “uniform” is officially complete. In other words, I’ve found the look I want to wear time and time again, into the spring season.

When I first saw this top I wasn’t immediately convinced I needed it. However, I began to imagine styling it for work and for the weekend, and I instantly had a few ideas, plus some. The “uniform” is one way to style these pieces, but I can’t wait to share each of these killer separates, styled differently.

There is no rhyme or reason to the “uniform” other than I just really, really like this look. I’m sure I will have another “uniform” come in to the mix very soon. For now though, this girly meets edgy look is the LexWhatWear “uniform”.

Galentine’s Day

We all know Valentine’s Day is for celebrating the love in our lives (although we should do that every day). If you weren’t aware, on Galentine’s Day, you should celebrate you favorite gals. If you haven’t told your best pal, your Mom, sister, aunt, cousin, co-worker, or grandma you love ’em lately, why don’t you greet them with a smile and a hug today or pick up the phone and call them?! I bottle of champagne wouldn’t hurt either!

Galentine’s Day is for the ladies, and I have so many wonderful ladies in my life that I celebrate, support, lift up, cheer for and pray for on a daily basis. These gals all deserve to be loved extra today on Galentine’s Day.

I’ve rounded up some of my favorite Galentine’s Day gifts, or gifts for the hella-cool ladies, if you will. This isn’t just a February 13th kind-of gift list. These items can be given to your Galentines at any point in the year. But if you really want to treat your Galentines, show them they’re special today with something similar to my fun picks below!

HAPPY GALENTINE’S DAY

Cardigan Love

CARDIGAN | TEE | JEANS

If you ask me, baking and drinking wine should be a competitive sport. I’ve watched so much Food Network in the last few years, that I’ve nailed down a pretty good chocolate chip muffin recipe. We’re putting those skills to the test for Valentine’s Day as I bake with a glass (or two) of wine in hand. I’ll let you know the verdict when my handsome taste-tester gives this batch a try.

Another thing I’ve nailed down, is a cozy look. I absolutely love this chunky knit cardigan. It’s the perfect shade of pink for this time of year, and my leopard print graphic tee is a great addition to complete the outfit. Not only is this look great for baking and drinking wine, but it’s also ideal for the weekend or a casual day at the office.

So I’ll get back to baking now, but in the mean time, spread the love this Valentine’s Day and use my code: SVD616 for an additional 15% OFF SHEIN sitewide!

Happy Hearts

SWEATER | DENIM | BOOTS

With Valentine’s Day right around the corner, I couldn’t think of a better time to talk about happy hearts. This year my heart is so incredibly full. My son and my husband, our wild crew of animals, family and friends, job and blessings, make for one happy gal.

Of course a happy heart is something I’ve known for the past several years, but in 2020 it feels different. It feels more full than ever before. My heart is grateful and humble, and above all else, genuinely happy.

I believe we should show love and celebrate love 365 days of the year, but on this Valentine’s Day I wish for all to feel loved, and know this happy hearts feeling I speak of. Everyone deserves that.

XO, ALEX
