Last November I lost my bff, something I have been pretty open about and can also admit I am not 100% over. Nonetheless, somehow I have learned to be my own best friend through the process and have had amazing personal growth on so many levels that I thought i'd share 3 things that have happened since becoming my own best friend.

Disclosure: I received a complimentary gift card for this post however all opinions expressed are my own.

Mother's Day is just around the corner and if you're like me then you are already thinking of what to wear. Everyone is thinking of where to take you out for dinner or you may be gathering the best recipes, catching up on Spring cleaning and planning something at home for mom. Finding the perfect outfit can seem like a daunting task but, JCPenney has an amazing assortment of beautiful, bright Spring dresses from collections including Bisou Bisou and Alyx—all available at your local in store and online now!

Remember that Spring Luncheon I posted about not too long ago? Well this is what I wore. I had been wanting to try the popular 90's trend of wearing a shirt tied around your waist and the Spring Fling Party was the perfect event to give it a try. I think I pulled it off and here are the 3 ways I made this trend work.

By now many of you have already seen my How to Wear White Jeans: Spring LookBook 1 or even had the chance to read a few tips I shared on El Diario NY if you did then you have seen this outfit. This look is casual Friday ready followed by happy hour or an evening of shopping at the mall with a change into flats.

Nothing screams classic Americana like a fresh Chambray button down top and a crisp pair of pair of white jeans!

Hi! So here are the details for look one of my white jeans lookbook. For this first look I kept it nice and casual but added a little flair with the sequin beret. White jeans are pretty much like any other bottom, there is no need to fret when thinking of wearing a pair. 

Now that Spring is only a few short days away it is official safe to wear white jeans without having to worry about snow, slush or plows ruining them. 

There are an endless amount of ways to wear white jeans, in this fun lookbook I have put together, I will be sharing 4 outfits using two different pairs of white jeans. Let me know what you think in the comments!

I am a big fan of jeans and blazers, when I saw these mustard skinny jeans at JCPenney on sale I had to grab a pair. I hate trying things on in a store, the whole act of dressing and undressing in a small confined place with hot bright lights gives me anxiety and makes me sweat. Not to mention that those fitting rooms always find a way to bring out the worst in you.

With a slew of festivities coming up now is the time to take advantage of Holiday collections that are currently on sale, to buy your little girl the perfect dress to wear this Christmas season.
