PreMed Wears Pearls

Sarah Flint has become one of my favorite places for shoes. I love what the company stands for and how the founder, Sarah Flint, has structured the business. All the shoes are designed with women in mind with arch support+padding (!), and maybe my favorite, a wider toe box so your feet/toes do not feel squished in the bottom of the shoe! All of the designs are *handmade* in Italy by family factories that have been making shoes for generations. I own the Natalie Flats and the Perfect Emma Sling. You can always use my code SARAHFLINT-BALIBBYM for $50 off your own pair! As I always say, your feet are important and you should invest in them! The Natalie flats are the classic pointed toe flat with a little bow detail. I love love how comfy and chic they are. I reach for these often. I think the shape of the shoe is very flattering for anyone! I feel like they go with every outfit too- wear it with a dress, skirt, jeans, anything! These are the Perfect Emma Slings. I think they are such a cl...

  I have tried to have a change in mindset about this winter- I have been trying to enjoy being outdoors and dressing for the weather. I do have to admit that there was a solid 2+ weeks where we had below zero weather, and it was not safe to go outside for long periods of time, and I hated it haha. But, other than that I have been trying to get outside this season, and feel it is especially important this year as we are going on almost one year of quarantine and staying home during a pandemic. This is part 2 of a winter survival guide, and we are chatting about the best outdoor winter gear so you can enjoy the outdoors! You can read part 1 here , where I give some tips and ideas on how to keep yourself busy indoors. Here, I am going to break down the winter essentials and my favorites! [This may be the least chic look I have ever posted to the blog, but it is important information haha!] 1. Parka The most important thing is a good winter coat/parka. Mine is from The North Face .

  ACCENT WITH BLUE Shirt  |  Similar Skirt  |  Shoes  |  Bow  |  Similar Bag Shirt | Similar Skirt | Shoes | Bow | Similar Bag I have been playing around with how to add my favorite color combination, blue and white, to my winter wardrobe. I was looking at my closet, and thought why not wear a very neutral outfit and accessorize with blue.  I love how the blues pop against the white shirt and gray+neutral colored skirt. I went with this light blue velvet bow from my friend Sarah's small business and an old blue bag from kate spade. They are not the exact same shade of blue, but I like that it wasn't so matchy-matchy but complemented each other well.  You can totally wear this outfit as we transition to warmer months by not wearing the tights- I had to wear the tights because it was still only 20 degrees in MN even though it felt warm compared to the last several weeks of arctic weather we had. I might even switch up the shoes ...

  After 2 weeks of below zero temperatures, I am ready for warm weather to be here. I am also excited that we are out of the polar cold snap and that it will be 40 degrees for a couple of days. A week ago, I started to online window shop for spring/summer pieces and decided to compile them here. I really love dressing for warmer weather and just wearing nothing but flowy, cute, comfy dresses. I did include the tan trench coat (which I already own), as spring can still be chilly here in Minnesota and I always advise light layers! So hopefully the trench gives you some warmer weather outfit inspiration. As you can see, most of my picks are in my favorite color way: blue and white. If you scroll farther down, I have included some bonus pieces I did not include in the collage 😊.

  I have seen this kind of post go around, and thought it was so interesting to read the responses. Today, I am going to share what I miss/what I am looking forward to in a more "normal" world again, and I would love if you would share yours.  It probably comes at no shock that I am most looking forward to going to Broadway again. In the fall of 2019, I wrote this post touching on my love for live theatre and how to see shows on a budget. It feels like we have all lived two lifetimes since I wrote that post! It has also been 1 year since I saw my last show- I saw Wicked at the end of February 2020. [which I have gratitude for every day since last March.] My friend Caitlin of LemonadePressBlog.com and I are both sharing our love of Broadway today on our blogs and on Instagram, so make sure to go read her blog post and check out both our instagrams: @lemonadepressblog + @libbylovespearls It it hard to explain the feeling I get when I see a live show and why I love and miss i...

  It has been ages since my last post like this. Maybe a year ago? Or more? Anyway, these are some outfits from the past few weeks or so. I want to start doing these more because I like reading other people's post like this, as it gives me inspiration for some simple outfits for staying at home and such. I was laughing as I was uploading the photos to draft the post because WOW was I into *jeans*. Well the one pair of jeans I have hah. I am really not a jeans person at all, but these called to me, and I actually like them?! I don't think I go on a jean buying spree, but I do like that they have been something different to throw on as I (we) spend our days at home. But, I am definitely not calling myself a jeans gal/lover any time soon. (also enjoy the various stages of room clutter ahah) PS- the outfit with the black blazer, dress and the heels was for a virtual interview day!

  I have been doing a bit of online window shopping, lately. J. Crew's new arrivals have been making me so happy and make me more excited for spring and warmer weather to arrive. I am sharing what I put in my cart while I online window shop, today. I know, I know, I will probably not need a new swim suit any time soon, but this navy and white striped one is SO darling! You can shop all these plus more, below. Can you tell blue and white is what I am most attracted to! As always, #dontforgetyourpearls JavaScript is currently disabled in this browser.
