{yellow, blue and happy too}
jacket: express – dress: nordstrom bp – shoes: nine west – bag: michael kors – necklace: Pavillion in Tulsa – bracelets: all over So I know my outfit looks rather sunny, but the southern states have forgotten to go into winter-mode again this year. These pictures were taken before a recent trip to New Orleans […]
Love from Coast to Coast
amandafrances.com exsists because I desired a space to show the world what I love. Between the many moves I’ve made around the country, I’ve learned what it’s like to create things you really love and have no one to recognize their importance to you: especially in the area of personal style.

Spirit Day: Service over Success
Monday is now Spirit Day on amandafrances.com And I’m not talking the kind of Spirit Day that involved me, pompoms, and a pep rally in high school.

Shop-less and Savvy: Day 29
Saturday: Day 29 So the morning after my little birthday gathering Drew took me to my very favorite weekend brunch spot. The top two pictures were actually taken right outside the restaurant. (Like literally we put down our mimosas and ran out into the street to have a quick photo shoot while we waited on our food to come […]
