All The Accessories
I'm a sucker for some good accessories.
They're just the cherry on top of a great outfit!
So today, I'm sharing three spring accessories that I've been loving this season!

| Photo Bombed Again! |
I recently bought the "Abbie" necklace (obvi) from Bauble Bar, and I'm obsessed!
It is such a fun piece that makes any outfit look a touch more glamorous. I anticipate that I'll be rocking it all spring and summer long.
Bauble Bar often has sales (in fact, this necklace is 50% right now!) and also sends you discounts via email when you create an account. I've got several more baubles in my shopping cart, so I keep an eye out for those discounts!

2. Bamboo Bag
Just in case I haven't made it apparent enough on my Instagram, this bag is a MUST-HAVE accessory.
It's a designer dupe and is a fraction of the cost of its name brand counterparts.
And, it's available for free, 2-day shipping!
Holla!
It also comes with this cutie little scarf which is just an added bonus.

3. Field Jacket
A good military jacket goes a looooong way.
It's an accessory that's also functional.
I actually purchased this one at least 4 years ago. I honestly can't remember how old it is, but it is still on trend!
It's the perfect layering piece to transition into spring and summer, and several retailers carry similar options each year.
Old Navy has a version of this jacket in seven different colors this season, including an adorable bubblegum pink.
Yes, please!
As always, leave me your comments below, and let me know what you think about this post!

The Perfect LBD - Old Navy Swing Dress
Is there anything better than finding a classic LBD that is
1. affordable
2. timeless
3. versatile
I think not!
Well, lucky for you, this dress is all three! It's so very simple which means you can keep it forever, and it will probably never really go out of style. You can wear this dress casually with a cute pair of sandals, or you can easily dress it up with some glitzy accessories! The options really are limitless because this dress is such a great basic piece.
It's also marked down to only $15 right now and is still available in all sizes (and four other colors)! And, get an extra 30% off your online order today only!

One Dress, Two Looks - Target T-Shirt Dress
It is oh-so-soft and comfy, and did I mention that it's only $20?!
It's so versatile and can easily be dressed up for an event, and yet, it's cozy enough that you could rock it while traveling (maybe with a fun pair of sneakers!).
In this post, I'm showing you two different ways that you can style this dress. During the early spring season, when the weather is still freezing and makes you want to die always so unpredictable, you need plenty of options!
As of today, this dress is still fully stocked. So, grab yours while they last! And if you want even more ruffle details, try this dress or this one!
Actually, just go to Target or Target.com and look at everything because there are so many cute spring items that I can't even decide what to show you!

Gift Guide for Dads
Hi, friends!
It's my Dad's birthday, and he turns the big 6-0 today!
He also just retired from a career in dentistry back in February.
I am so impressed by all of his hard work, and I’m so thankful that now he gets to spend all of his time relaxing, doing the things he wants to do, and being a Grandpa to my new baby niece
(and, of course, to Luna 😊).
 |
| Dad fills his post-retirement schedule with Father-Daughter lunch dates. We are not mad about it. |
This big milestone birthday of his got me thinking about all of the awesome gifts that can be found on Amazon!
Today’s post is just a compilation of some of my favorite Amazon gift ideas for Dads.
And, with Father's Day coming up, this guide will help you stay ahead of the game!
Also, I plan on getting a Gift Guide for Moms on the blog soon too, so stay tuned.
My dad LOVES a good selfie. He sends me several each week. I bought him this selfie stick as a retirement gift, and hopefully it will take his selfie game to the next level.
2. Weekend Bag
Dad likes to travel, and with a bag like this, he'll be all set for those spur of the moment weekend getaways he loves!
*Real Life Moment*
Abby in college, calls Dad: "Hey, Dad. Can I come over and borrow something?"
Dad: "Oh...Mom and I are in St. Louis"
Abby: 😐
3. Cologne
This cologne is a refreshing scent that isn't overpowering.
Nothing says, "I love you" to your old man like ensuring he doesn't stink.

5. Coffee Maker
My dad is a coffee enthusiast. He loves this coffee maker because it is also a bean grinder! Nothing like fresh ground coffee in the morning. Mmmm :)
And for the dad on the go, perhaps a single serve Keurig would be better!

Alexa is my dad's new bff. I'm not kidding. He's obsessed. He especially loves the Jeopardy Game feature.

Can't get any more true.

I thought this was hysterical.
And my dad would probably think so too.
That's the only reason it's on this list.

My parents live in a very safe neighborhood, but my Dad still found it necessary to install this Ring Video Doorbell.
He loves getting notifications on his phone and seeing who's at the door (it's usually just a neighbor in the street walking their dog 😂).
He's even been known to move it to the backyard to see what his dogs are doing while he's not home!

My husband bought this for his Dad this past Christmas, and it was a hit!

The perfect gift for avid readers!

Flat Lays IRL

| Luna's little paw in this picture. It's just too much. I'll never crop it out. 💞 |
Happy Friday Eve!
Just in case you ever wonder what all those "flat lay" pictures of clothes would actually look like on your body...I'm showing you photos of some of my flat lays in real life!
I got this idea from an adorable blogger I follow, Mrs. Casual. She does a "Flat Lays Come to Life" post every week, and all of her outfit combos are so cute and well...casual! 😊
Today, I'm showcasing the outfits from my blog post about spring finds at Old Navy.

Abbylish's Wishes - April 2018
Happy Monday, Friends!
It is finally starting to feel like spring in good old Tennessee!
I’ve been in such a good mood all day because of the sunshine, so I figured this was a great time to share with you my wishlist for the month of April!
These are all of the items that I’ve been eyeing so far this month.
They’re things that I think you all would love too, and they would also make great gifts for your girl friends, sisters, or moms.
Mother’s Day is just around the corner!
For those of you who don’t know, I have been an exercise enthusiast for some time now, and I’m a firm believer in the idea that your workout is better when you know you look good!
(I am now reflecting on all of the sports I signed up for as a kid just for the outfits: tennis..gymnastics...)
So, I'm clearly all about fun workout clothes, and these marble leggings are just too cool.
I teach a fitness class here in Cookeville, and I think these leggings need to make an appearance in class soon!
Who’s with me?
And to go with my killer leggings….these pink slip on sneakers!
The blush/rose gold craze is still in full force, and I’m not getting off that bandwagon any time soon!
Greg and I are going to Rosemary Beach this summer for our anniversary, and I would LOVE to pack this too cute two-piece set in my suitcase!
The top and the bottom are sold separately, so you can choose different sizes if you are a normal woman and aren’t the same size on top and bottom.
Score!
Ok, I know I’m behind the times here. It seems that EVERYONE has these wedges this spring.
And for good reason!
They’re adorable, classic, and go with everything!
The only reason I haven’t purchased them yet is because I don’t wear heels that often. There’s also a similar version at Target that’s a little bit cheaper!
These are more my speed.
Flat heel, ruffle detail, and under $20.
My heart is full.
How many tan sandals is too many????
The limit does not exist.
I love white jeans. I can’t get enough. They are so classy!
But this frayed hem style from LOFT adds a fun element to a classic staple.
LOFT has great sales pretty often. Hoping to snag these the next time they go on sale!
I spotted this bag in the store weeks ago, and I’ve been thinking about it ever since.
It’s so fun!
Let's be real I go to the Cookeville Old Navy about once a week, so I'm sure this will be in my closet soon. :)
With all this rain we’ve been having, I’ve got rain jackets on the brain.
I already have a super cute rain jacket that my hubby bought for me when we were engaged.
Sweet memories.
It’s kind of a sporty/casual look though, and I would love to have a rain jacket that would pair well with dressy outfits.
I saw this jacket first on one of my favorite bloggers, Loverly Grey! She's adorable and so fun to follow. Go check out her page. You won't regret it!

This jacket is a little pricey, but I’m sure it’s well worth it. I have had some of my J. Crew clothes for years. They’re great quality and worth the price to me.
This pink jacket is currently on backorder, but it also comes in navy!
Speaking of rain…
I have been wanting a pair of Hunter Rain boots for a while now, and the Original Refined Rain Boots are just so sleek and classic.
Not only are rain boots cute, but they’re so functional!
I’ll never forget wearing my first pair of rain boots in college. They were some loud, obnoxious, glossy pattern, I’m sure, but when I got to class without soaking the bottom of my pants, I was sold on rain boots.
I am a newfound Kendra Scott groupie.
My cousin hosted a party at the Kendra Scott store in Nashville last summer to raise money for the nonprofit organization she was working for at the time.
Up until that point, I didn’t have any Kendra Scott jewels, but as soon as I walked through those doors, I fell hard.
I still don’t have many Kendra pieces, but I think I may need to add these Aragon Earrings to my collection next.
I’m a sucker for a statement earring AND for turquoise, so clearly, I need these.
And while we’re on the topic of jewelry, this necklace is a must have for summer!
I can picture so many outfits that this necklace would compliment:
a simple v-neck tee for a casual yet put together look or a strapless dress for a fancy summer date night.
Just a second while I head to Bauble Bar right now….
Nordstrom has the cutest sunnies! And some at surprisingly low prices!
And if they come in pink, you know I’m into it.

The Best Sandals - Old Navy Spring Finds
So in case you haven’t already figured this out, I have an Old Navy problem.
Reasons Why I Have This Problem
1. I have to go out of town to hit up most of my favorite stores. But, Cookeville has an Old Navy, so if I'm shopping locally, I'm usually there.
2. I’ve literally worn Old Navy clothes since I was a kid. I know what the quality is like. I know what will fit well. I just know what to expect there.
3. They offer really adorable options at affordable prices!
Which brings me to my next point: Old Navy is currently having an awesome sale!
50% off storewide!
50% off storewide!
I have found (and bought) a bunch of cute items for spring there. And, as they make way for summer products (yay!), the prices just keep dropping!
I just picked up these nude cross strap sandals today.
They are ONLY $15 right now and also come in black, hot pink, and a pretty kelly green!
I don’t wear heels very often (they make me taller than my hubby 😜), so these will be a staple for me all spring and summer.
I combined these cuties with a few different outfits so you can see just how versatile they are! They’re a great neutral shoe, and there are so many other items available at Old Navy right now that would look great with them.
So head to Old Navy and get everything while the gettin’s good!

How adorable is this shift dress?!
The sleeves...the embroidery...it’s just the sweetest, and it's so on trend right now!
It looks great with these sandals, but it would also look so cute with wedges.
Add some gold jewelry and a straw tote, and you’re ready for dinner on the beach (or something equally as dreamy).
Jeggings / Tee / Shoes / Earrings / Nail Polish
Remember the elastic waist jeggings that I freaked out about?
Well, THEY COME IN WHITE!!
The best news.
The luxe v-neck tee that I paired with them in this photo is oh so comfy.
I’ll take one in every color please!

The color of these distressed jeans just screams “spring!”
They look so good paired with this cream tunic, but I can just seem them now styled a chambray button up or a classic striped tee.
Adorbs.
Side note: Photo un-cropped so you can see Luna's little paw.
You're welcome.
