Summer Essentials Clothing and Accessories

If you liked yesterday's post, then you should like the post today. I am going to give you a few essential clothing/accessory items and tips that can help you build a summer wardrobe.


A classic pair of black wedges will go with any outfit. It will give you some nice lift. I love wedges because it is a shoe that I can wear with some confidence that I won't break an ankle in!

A simple nude dress can go with many different scarves and accessories. Pair it with a leopard scarf and a black purse for classic elegance, or pair it with some fun, bold jewelry to make it fun.

A classic black handbag (mine also goes cross body!) is a great Summer staple. It goes with everything, and is just big enough to hold your essentials, but not be a huge purse.

I love a cute maxi dress. You could also get a maxi skirt and wear that as well. I love how effortless it is, and how they look great with a simple jean jacket.

Lastly, get a few great scarves. You might not need them during the day but sometimes those summer nights can get chilly. You know I love my leopard scarf. It is classic, and can be worn casually with khakis and a black top. I also love a colorful scarf. It can make an outfit go from "drab to fab!"

Nude dress and Maxi dress: New York and Company
Black Wedges: Miss Bisou (JC Penney)
Leopard scarf: Amazon.com

Cooking for a Crowd: Spaghetti Sauce

My family likes to save money when we have parties. One way to do so is to cook everything ourselves, instead of hiring a caterer. Today, I wanted to give you a recipe for spaghetti sauce that will feed a crowd. This recipe is best made in an 18 quart roast pan. We bought most of our sauces and tomato paste at Costco. Ingredients: 2 onions 3 cans diced tomatoes 2 #10 cans of tomato sauce 1 #10 can on spaghetti sauce 1 heaping tsp of garlic minced 2 (28 oz) cans of crushed tomatoes 4 (6 oz) cans of tomato paste 1 tsp sugar Onion and garlic salt, italian seasoning, parsley, oregano to taste 1 pound of each: ground meat, hot and sweet sausage Look at the deliciousness!  In a skillet brown your meat and sausage in a little oil. Once browned place off to the side. Combine your onions, garlic, diced tomatoes, and crushed tomatoes. *Sweat your onions down first, then add the garlic. Then your tomatoes.* Open your tomato sauces and spaghetti sauces (w...

Christmas/New Year's Recap

First, I just want to say that I have absolutely no pictures from Christmas. I'm terrible, I know. In my defense, I was sick all through Christmas and just wasn't feeling "it." I do however, have pictures of some of the gifts I received and New Year's. Christmas Eve dinner was hosted by my parents and I. We had lasagna, wedding soup, salad, bread, and Italian butter. I made a homemade alfredo sauce to go along with the lasagna. I also made the Italian butter, and attempted to make my homemade French bread. This year, the bread did not turn out. For dessert, I made white chocolate raspberry shooters. They were SO good! I will do a recipe on those when I make them again! After everything was cleaned up, we honestly just relaxed. I would have liked to have gone to Christmas Eve service at our church, but I was coughing, clearing my throat every 5 minutes, and blowing my nose every 10. I was a hot mess. My grandparents came back out to our house after church and w...
