Sweet & Sassy | Pink & Red Edit

Happy Tuesday from Cabo, lovebugs! I arrived yesterday with the Avara team to shoot and launch their new Resort Collection! I’ll be sharing my fave styles throughout the week (follow the fun HERE), but they’ve given us Early Access to shop HERE!I I’ll be sure to recap everything later this week on the blog, as well.

Dallas is expected to dip to the single digits, so I’m not mad about getting out of town again so quickly! Especially since they’ve already warned us the power grid will be strained. Awesome.

The last time that happened, we lost power for three days, had multiple pipes burst, and ultimately had to move out of our house for the summer while the floors were replaced. I mean, I love a good project, but that wasn’t too fun! Fingers crossed everything holds up this time.

Today we’re talking about the season of love! Valentine’s Day is around the corner, and pink and red is forever a fave color combo, no matter the time of year. Today I’ve rounded up some of fave styles for the season (and beyond!), plus some sweet gift ideas.

Pink & Red Forever //

This pullover is a lightweight sweatshirt with a cute graphic, and the cardigan is a chunky sweater with a fun embroidered heart on the back!

Fit Tip: Iโ€™m wearing a size Medium cream pullover and size Small black cardigan.

Itโ€™s hard to believe this darling top is an Amazon find! Made of a quality eyelet cotton, the body is lined and the buttons are operational. I love the loose, full sleeves, and button front. I already owned the pink, but had to grab the red for football weekends in Oklahoma!

Fit Tip: Iโ€™m wearing a size Small blousebut itโ€™s a generous fit, no need to size up.

Fit Tip: Iโ€™m wearing a size Small top.

I’ll take any opportunity to wear this cardigan… I named it a Sugarplum Favorite Thing, after all! And so cute in the red stripes, right?

Fit Tip: I’m wearing a size XS cardigan.

I shared this set in another color months ago, but didnโ€™t love itโ€ฆ until I picked my friend Suzie up at the airport and she was wearing it in this pink! And then I instantly ordered it and have worn it countless time since! Yes, I feel a bit like the Stay Puff Marshmallow Man, but itโ€™s so crazy comfy, and dang it, itโ€™s cute!!! I seriously get so many compliments every time I wear it!

Fit Tip: Iโ€™m wearing a size Small set.

Can you believe this fleece pullover is an Amazon find?! It looks just like Free People, but for a fraction of the price. I love the red, but there are several color options and fun combos. Itโ€™s not overly hot, and has zipper pockets and details. Tip: mine arrived vacuum-sealed, but fluffed up great in the dryer.

Fit Tip: Iโ€™m wearing a size Small pullover and size XS leggings.

Fit Tip: I size up for a relaxed fit, this is a Medium.

Leggings season is upon us, which means I’m always on the hunt for tunic-length sweaters, and this one is a long-time fave!
