Athleisure in 2025

Athleisure from top left: pink scarf / lightweight pants / silver hoop earrings / lightweight zip-up hoodie /

Not every day is a runway. There are days when we just want to be comfortable as we run around town doing errands, meeting friends for coffee and taking walks. This soft sweatsuit is perfect for those days. I love the high-quality fabric, and chic yet casual vibe.

So, if you are looking for something to wear on casual days, or you just want to wear something soft, this is the outfit inspo we all need. Love it!

This would also make a comfortable travel outfit. Love that!

Thanks for stopping by, and stay tuned for more in the new year!

BAF Weekly IT List

BAF Weekly IT List from top left: suede and leather bucket bag / boxy tote / Dior spring nail polish / Chanel spring nail polish / mocha nail polish / lucky red nail polish / pink earrings / lucky red bucket bag / caramel top handle bag / black belted tote / wide leg jeans (on sale!) /

As spring starts to sprinkle onto store shelves, we are seeing lucky red for the new year, pale pink, and shades of mocha. In addition, the anonymous handbag is stronger than ever; despite efforts from designers to bring back IT bags from twenty years ago. Logowear is still in storage, and consumers do not currently have an appetite to bring it out and rock it on the streets. In 2025, stay anonymous and chic.

These wide leg jeans are not only on trend, high quality and comfortable, they are on sale. Love that! This pair of wide leg jeans is available in regular sizing, petite, plus, and tall. I own a petite pair. They are amazing and fit so well! I love it when a brand offers all of the size types!

When it comes to nail polish, spring pastels, lucky red and shades of mocha are hotter than hot. This gives us so many options when choosing a nail color. Love that!

What are you loving right now? Stay tuned for spring coverage coming up!

XOXO

Penn’s Cave exploration

Pennsyvania has a rich landscape with a huge number of natural resources. One of the perks of this abundance of resources is that the state offers several caves to explore. On a recent trip to central Pennsylvania, we decided to explore another cave. I had heard good things about Penn’s Cave and Wildlife Park, so we decided to check it out!

Since it was very cold, we only purchased tickets for the cave tour and not the wildlife tour. I am sure the wildlife tour is amazing, but on this day we were only interested in the cave. I am so glad we toured the cave! It was an amazing experience and would be fun to check out again, maybe on a warmer day not in the middle of winter. haha

The tour of Penn’s Cave is about fifty minutes and takes place on a boat. It is incredibly interesting to hear the history of the cave and how it has been created over centuries. Our tour guide was extremely informative and taught us the history of the cave and the area. It was so cool!

If you travel to Pennsyvania, be sure to check out Penn’s Cave! You can learn more at pennscave.com.
