Navy, Baby OOTD

Navy, Baby OOTD

Hello everyone and welcome to a brand new OOTD here on lifewithlilred! I don’t want to jinx it, but I feel like spring is officially here and it has been glorious! Frigid days and snow turned into balmy rainy days and I have been loving it. It is just SO nice to leave the house without it hurting my face and, although I enjoy dressing for winter, I was definitely over bundling up! This past weekend had sixty degree temps and I couldn’t wait to shoot some outfits without having to tap out from the cold. I knew exactly what I wanted to wear thanks to my last TJMaxx trip with my mom! Check it out:

Who? What? Wear?

Collared Top: Truth By Republic, TJMaxx

Skater Skirt: This was a hand me down but it’s from Rue 21

Snakeskin Pattern Boots: Vince Camuto, TJMaxx

The turquoise cross earrings were a gift from my mom and are Lucky Brand!

I tried on several different blouses at TJMaxx that were gorgeous for spring. However, none of them spoke to me as pretty as they were. What screamed at me was the fabulous collared top by Truth By Republic. I just think it is the coolest and is the epitome of a basic staple with a twist. The denim detailing is incredibly stiff and it’s such an interesting juxtaposition to the soft as can be remainder of the top. I love the colorblocked blue and this top is a perfect example of unique and simple details that go a long way.

Oftentimes when I am trying clothes on at TJs, visions of OOTDs come swirling into my head that feature the pieces that are coming home with me. That was very much the case for this top and my outfit turned out exactly how I imagined it. I love it when that happens! In the fitting room, I pieced together the top with my navy skater skirt to turn it into a pseudo dress. The colors in the skirt and top might not have been an exact match but it was close enough and that’s good enough for me. This skirt provided some flouncy movement as the top was quite form fitting and helped to create a sweet for spring silhouette.

Finally, it was onto shoes and accessories. As navy is a neutral, I could have fun with my shoe choice and went for a pair of snakeskin patterned heeled boots by Vince Camuto. I am very partial to a grayscale snakeskin print but those rich brown tones were too good to pass up and looked great against the navy base. For accessories, I simply popped on a pair of dangly turquoise crosses as there wasn’t much open real estate for necklaces or bracelets. That was no matter, though, because I wanted to let that crisp denim detailing do all of the talking!

This Navy, Baby OOTD can easily be replicated and is so fab for a spring day. Stay tuned for the Blooper Reel tomorrow!

Cute In K-Pop OOTD

Cute In K-Pop OOTD

Hello everyone and welcome to a brand new OOTD here on lifewithlilred! Johnny and I had such a nice weekend and part of it came from celebrating our birthday girl niece. I got to spend a wonderful morning all together with my girl squad and I knew exactly what I wanted to wear – my K-Pop Demon Hunters cropped tee! The girls are avid fans of that movie and, damnit, so am I. It is SO good. The music is SO catchy. And I am never going to turn down a dance party to the soundtrack! Take a look at this fun little fit and let’s discuss:

Who? What? Wear?

Cropped Tee: 5 Below

Bejeweled Boyfriend Jeans: Banjara, TJMaxx

Lavender Platforms: Olivia Miller, Walmart

Earrings: SugarFix By BaubleBar, Target

With my K-Pop Demon Hunters cropped tee already in mind, this outfit essentially built itself. And, let me tell you, it was SO nice to simply wear this outfit out sans jacket because we had a glorious sixty plus degree day. Spring, is that you?! Can we talk about how fab this tee is, though? The picture of the Huntrix chicks is just adorable and it fits like a glove. It’s snug without being overly tight which is exactly what I like when it comes to my clothing. The material is soft as can be and I have a feeling I’ll be living in it this spring and summer!

In the pants department, I went with a cool pair of bejeweled boyfriend jeans by Banjara. Try saying that five times fast! I just can’t get enough of the distressing with the big fat rhinestones and these are one of my favorite pairs even if they aren’t skinny jeans. The relaxed fit of these jeans with the form fitting crop was a match made in heaven and while this look was super casual it still provided an interesting silhouette. A baggier piece paired with something tighter always makes for a good look. 😀

Finally, it was onto shoes and accessories which was an incredibly easy decision. For shoes, I chose a lavender pair of platforms by Olivia Miller. I got these shoes for a whole five bucks and talk about a steal! They are so sweet for the warm weather and comfy enough to walk for miles in (Maybe one or two lol). Although it wasn’t a true match to the colors in the cropped tee it was close enough and that’s good enough for me! In my jewelry box I selected a pair of glittery circular earrings that also fell in the pastel purple and pink category. It really tied the look together from head to toe and with that, I was ready to go!

I am so loving this Cute In K-Pop OOTD – stay tuned for the Blooper Reel tomorrow! 🙂

New Truth By Republic Top

New Truth By Republic Top

Howdy! Being able to spend time with my mom is just the best and we had a blast getting our nails done and going shopping on Tuesday. Ever since I was little, TJMaxx has always been my favorite place to go with my mom and literally nothing has changed. In fact, I feel like we still shop the store the exact same too: Start with the handbags, move onto jewelry and skin care, browse through shoes, make a round in home goods, and end up in the clothing racks. There were a lot of pretty spring clothes to pick from and I tried a handful of tops on. All of them were so so except for this super cool little number by Truth By Republic. Check it out:

^^^ You can’t beat that price!! 😀

While I love bold and quirky statement pieces, I am also extremely partial to classic clothing with a twist. Timeless staples that have been freshened up. IE: A trench coat in emerald green, a blazer that’s actually a cape, or sweet kitten heels with some bling. There is something about these classic pieces with a modern update that really speak to me. At the end of the day, fashion comes and goes. However, I always know that my upgraded wardrobe staples will forever be in style! Which is why I went with my new Truth By Republic top amidst all of the billowy blouses and pastel shades of spring.

When I saw this shirt, I instantly knew it was going to be a winner as a collared long sleeve top is a universally flattering shape. The bonus points were scored with the stiff denim collar and cuffing on the sleeves. How awesome is that?! Something as simple as a navy top was elevated into statement status with the addition of that blue jean color and material. This shirt fit snugly without being tight, was soft as can be, and is perfect for work or play. I plan on wearing it with a navy blue skater skirt for a pseudo dress appearance and a gorgeous pair of brown toned snakeskin boots. The movement of the skirt will provide some sass and the snakeskin and form fitting top will add in a dose of sexy for a fun take on a date night ensemble!

Keep it posted for a brand new OOTD featuring this fab new top soon. See you then! ❤

Jammin Jumpsuit OOTD

Jammin Jumpsuit OOTD

Hello everyone and welcome to a brand new OOTD here on lifewithlilred! As you read yesterday, we attended a minor league hockey game this past Saturday and this is what I wore to the big event. I knew we were going to do a fair bit of walking to get to the arena and our seats so I decided to err on the side of comfort. I am SO glad that I did because the seating situation left a lot to be desired. They were incredibly cramped and while it still wasn’t ideal even with what I was wearing, I couldn’t imagine sitting through the game in stiff jeans. Hey, it was a small price to pay for a good time and it felt heavenly to make the walk back to the car and stretch my legs afterwards! Take a look at this Jammin Jumpsuit fit:

Who? What? Wear?

Jumpsuit: Fervour, ModCloth

Tank Top: Rachel Zoe, TJMaxx

Moto Jacket: Zara

Heeled Combat Boots: BCBG, TJMaxx

Cross Earrings: EmLeigh’s and Mama B’s

As I went through my mental Rolodex for this outfit, I was trying to think if I had any clothes that fell under the “sporty” category. My options were, admittedly, very limited and I kept circling back to my Fervour jumpsuit. While it might not be Sporty Spice, it was casual, cool, and comfy and I decided to go for it. This jumpsuit is just so damn cute! Of course, I love the embroidered skeleton motif but the shape is ultra trendy with the dropped crotch and armpit area too so you can pair it with a fun bralette. Since we were going to a hockey game, I didn’t go the bralette route because cold. So, I paired it with a white tank underneath to keep that region covered. I actually like this jumpsuit better with the tank top so I never have to worry about wardrobe malfunctions!

To keep warm in, I opted for my go to moto jacket by Zara. I am all about the industrial studs and cloth hood. This jacket also has a heaviness to it without being overly warm which worked for the fifty degree temps outside. Surprisingly, not so much for inside the arena. As we walked to our seats at the hockey game, I was overheating! Despite the ice, it was also a very comfortable temperature when we took our places and even sans jacket I was a-okay. All the cheering, stomping, and clapping kept me nice and toasty! But, hey, you never know when you are going to need a jacket and now I know I don’t need anything too heavy for next time. And there will definitely be another hockey game in our future. 😀

To wrap this look up, I went for a pair of army green heeled combat boots by BCBG. These boots are so sturdy and were made for walking! That’s just what I did in them and I could have kept on going for miles. Well, maybe two or three lol and they added a muted pop of color to an otherwise All Black Everything OOTD. For jewelry, I didn’t want to be bogged down with anything other than earrings and chose a pair of black gemstone adorned crosses. These were purchased at an adorable boutique in Marietta, Ohio and are a lovely reminder of an amazing Valentine’s Day weekend Johnny and I spent there! ❤

Not quite sporty but close enough, this Jammin Jumpsuit OOTD was just right for an afternoon of minor league hockey!

February 2026 Finishes

February 2026 Finishes

Howdy everyone and holy WOW! We are just about done with another month of 2026 and is it just me or did February fly by? January dragged like nobody’s business, February was in warp speed, and I hope that March meets somewhere in the middle because where did the time go? Also, fingers crossed that we get Real Spring sometime in March because Fake Spring in good ol’ Akron, Ohio has come and passed and we’re back to snow. Bring on those spring flowers and sixty degree days, baby! Before we spring forward into spring, let’s take a look at the beauty products I finished up this month. There are some really good ones in there:

Would I Use Again?

SOQU Rice Cleansing Foam: YES!!!

Bath & Body Works Champagne Toast Lotion: YES

Precision Beauty Vitamin C + Collagen Serum: YES

EOS Ultra Derm Hand Cream: YES

Vital Beauty Cooling Eye Gel: YES

Why/Why Not?

SOQU Cleansing Foam: I absolutely LOVED the Rice Cleansing Foam by SOQU and I am so sad that it is all gone because I have been using it since May of 2025. Crazy, right?! For a little shy of a year, I have been using this cleanser every morning and that is an amazing value. A nickle sized dollop was all I needed for big, foaming bubbles to wash my face with. This cleanser removed makeup well and left my skin looking so bright and hydrated. I have used this product through spring, summer, fall, and winter and it is an excellent year round cleanser. Highly recommend if you can find a bottle and I’m keeping my fingers and toes crossed to find more at TJMaxx!

Precision Beauty Serum: I am a huge fan of the Precision Beauty serums and have been using them almost exclusively for the past half a year or so. What I like the most about these serums is their effectiveness because I feel like they actually do exactly as it says on the packaging. The serum I finished up offered Vitamin C + Collagen and delivered on that promise. With a month of twice daily use, my skin was radiant and I really think it looked tighter too. It especially packed an extra punch with the Vitamin C moisturizer I am currently working through for an additional dose of a brightening boost. I have plenty more of the Precision Beauty serums in my stockpile and will absolutely continue to buy them. 😀

EOS Hand Cream: The Ultra Derm Hand Cream by EOS was a Sweet Surprise from my mom to pack in my new Antik Kraft purse. Although I don’t use lotion during the day as I hate the texture, I certainly enjoyed this hand cream at night! The Vanilla Cashmere scent was oh so nice and light and the perfect relaxing fragrance to put on before bed. It was extremely helpful for my dry winter skin and my hands definitely benefited from it. When I woke up it was always a treat to feel smooth hands over scaly! It took me about two weeks of once daily use to finish the bottle.

Vital Beauty Eye Gel: Like Precision Beauty for my serums, I am very loyal to Vital Beauty for my eye creams and the Cooling Eye Gel has been a staple in my skin care routine for a long time. These little jars take four months of twice daily use to finish up and you just can’t beat that value. The cooling gel is invigorating in the morning and soothing on tired eyes at the end of the day. The best thing, though? My designer eye bags are virtually nonexistent so I am always looking my well rested best even when I don’t feel like it!

February was a GREAT SUCCESS for beauty finishes and all of the products above are ones that I would recommend and happily use again. Enjoy!!

Which products did you use up this month? What are your thoughts on any of the above products if you have used them before? I want to hear from all of you, so leave me a comment and let’s chat! Much love. -Sarah

V-Day OOTD

V-Day OOTD

Hello everyone and welcome to a brand new OOTD here on lifewithlilred! Johnny and I enjoyed a magnificent Valentine’s Day date with dinner at Boss ChickNBeer and an evening at a Cupid’s Revenge haunted house. For dinner, I paired the look you are about to see with a sweetheart cardigan. Then, I let it all hang out at the haunted house because it was an event that definitely teetered on the sexy side! This little fit was a huge hit and I felt like an absolute star in it. In fact, Johnny and I were so well dressed that we ended up making friends with every single person who complimented us! ❤ Check it out:

Who? What? Wear?

Bralette: Victoria’s Secret

Bubble Skirt: A New Day, Target

Heeled Mules: Betsey Johnson, TJMaxx

Heart Earrings: SugarFix By Baublebar, Target

As the Cupid’s Revenge haunt erred on the side of sexy, I decided to follow suit and put the lingerie as everyday wear trend to good use. I had a few different bralette options in mind including an adorable one with embroidered hearts on it. That was actually my original plan until I pivoted to an All Black Everything ensemble. I’ll be honest with you, I genuinely forgot I had the Vicky’s Secret bralette you see above so when I found it, it was game on. This little number is sexy with a capital S E X Y. I absolutely love the black lace over the nude background and find it to be such a chic pairing. While this was quite revealing, I felt fully comfortable in it as it is so supportive with six tabs to attach in the back. I was able to hit the dance floor at the haunt without any fear of a wardrobe malfunction! (Although it for sure wouldn’t have mattered there!)

The evening of our date was blessedly warm which gave me the opportunity to go with a skirt to pair the bralette with. Even if it was bitter cold, I still think I would have worn it because I would do anything for fashion! And besides, it was a very short walk into the haunted house. 😀 Since the bralette was so form fitting, I wanted to add some dimension and went for my gorgeous bubble skirt by A New Day. It made for such an interesting silhouette and was such fun to twirl in to the pop hits blasting through the speakers. This skirt added a dose of sweetness to the sex appeal and made for a perfect combination.

Finally, it was onto shoes and accessories. For shoes, I went for a pair of heeled mules by Betsey Johnson for a touch of quirky cute with those striped heels and embroidered flowers. They were also a strategic choice as the heel was nice and sturdy for our trek through the haunt. With my tattoos doing a majority of the talking, all that was left to do was slip on a pair of earrings. The three tiered hearts by BaubleBar provided a pop of color and V-Day flare. With that, I was ready for our amazing night on the town!

Sometimes you just have to get sexy and what better occasion than Valentine’s Day?!

V-Day But Make It Goth OOTD

V-Day But Make It Goth OOTD

Hello everyone and Happy Valentine’s Day! Please be mine xoxo! The other week I thought it would be fun to create a goth V-Day inspired look and I have been so excited to share it with all of you. It had me feeling like a star running through a haunted castle in a Guillermo Del Toro movie and it was nothing short of exhilarating. This look also features a couple of gorgeous vintage hand me downs that belonged to Johnny’s grandma. Clearly, she had impeccable taste! Check it out:

Who? What? Wear?

Crushed Velvet Coat: There was no brand name to be found but this was a vintage hand me down

Polka Dot Slip Dress: Talia Benson, TJMaxx

Skeleton Platforms: Dolls Kill

Gloves: These were also a vintage hand me down

Teardrop Earrings: I think I got these at Target

When I began thinking about a goth Valentine’s Day OOTD, the Talia Benson slip dress immediately came to mind. It brings the drama with a form fitting slip, a mesh overlay adorned with polka dots, and a divine dropped waist. I don’t get to break this little number out very often as it’s definitely a Playhouse Square level occasion option. However, when I do, no one can tell me NOTHIN. This dress is stunning on its own but I absolutely needed more to it. It was a frigid ten degrees when we took these pictures and I would do basically anything for fashion but I won’t do that lol.

The next step was selecting a coat to wear and the choice was obvious: My vintage hand me down. Several months back, Johnny’s mom gave me a handful of coats and dresses that belonged to his grandma. As pretty as they all are, they are not suited for everyday wear. Until now! This floor length coat in a soft crushed velvet is a goth girl’s dream come true. It’s impossible not to swoon over those bubble shoulders, brooch style buttons, and pale gold lining. Not only did this coat provide the goth princess vibe I was going for, but it was also warm as can be. In fact, I could have stayed outside comfortably for awhile unlike Johnny who took these pictures in pajamas and a leather jacket on top. SMH!!

Finally, it was onto shoes and accessories. For my shoes, I went for a killer pair of skeleton designed platforms for two reasons. 1) It matched the aesthetic. And 2) I needed the extra height badly as the coat would have been dragging on the floor without them. Even with them on, it barely was hovering above the ground! For an extra dose of warmth, I added on a pair of black vintage gloves. If you have a good eye, you’ll notice in the pictures that it has sheer ruffles across the wrist, making them even more special than they already are. Last but not least were a pair of dangly black gem teardrop earrings to symbolize the goth tears I shed as a teenager lol. With that, I was ready to unleash my V-Day But Make It Goth OOTD!

In case you couldn’t tell from my several Pan’s Labyrinth tattoos, I am an avid fan of all things Del Toro. I like to think that this OOTD would do him proud!

What is your Valentine’s Day style? Are you pastel sweet or goth chic? I want to hear from all of you, so leave me a comment and let’s chat! Much love. -Sarah

Sweet Surprises: Eos Hand Cream Edition

Sweet Surprises: Eos Hand Cream Edition

Hello! I am so lucky because my family freaking rocks. I have the coolest siblings, the coolest nieces and nephew, and the coolest parents. Johnny and I live not even five minutes away from chez parents and I swear it’s not close enough. I just love spending time with all of them so much and trust and believe we’re texting nonstop when I’m not at their place. While any time with any of my family members is my favorite, I am especially partial to shopping trips with my mom. This has been a staple in our relationship since I was little. What can I say, I’ve always loved fashion! During our last TJs trip together, my mom helped me pick out a gorgeous new purse. The following day, she surprised me with a little treat to keep handy as I tote around my Antik Kraft saddlebag:

If I had to estimate the amount of times I have heard my mom say “Open your hands and close your eyes and I’ll give you a big surprise” since my youth, I would say it’s in the hundreds lol. No matter how old we get, she still repeats that sentiment when she picks one of us up a little something and it is still so exciting. This time around, my surprise was a perfect purse sized Eos hand cream in Vanilla Cashmere. I am a vanilla fragrance gal just like my mom and I always associate that scent with her. (As well as her beloved discontinued perfume from The Body Shop called Leap!) This travel size bottle of hand cream was such a lovely nod to our shopping adventure and it makes me smile whenever I am rummaging through my purse.

All of you know that TJMaxx is my happy place. Yes, I love the fashion but I also love the memories that flood over me whenever I walk into the store. I have the fondest recollections of shopping there with my grandma (My mom’s mom) and my mom too. Three generations of us gals shopping till we drop and having fun exploring our own personal styles. Whenever I have a hankering to go to the Maxx, I always ask my mom if she wants to join me because it’s so special to walk the aisles with her. From a little girl to a grown woman, TJMaxx is our sanctuary. Hallowed grounds to let the store tell us what we need. Simply having the hand cream that my mom got me in the bag that I got with her brightens my day because it brings back so many happy days we had together doing my favorite thing… Shopping! ❤

My mom is the queen of Sweet Surprises and the queen of Best Mom Ever. I am the luckiest girl in the whole world! 🙂

What do you keep in your purse? Where is your favorite place to shop? I want to hear from all of you, so leave me a comment and let’s chat! Much love. -Sarah

V-Day Bratz Doll OOTD

V-Day Bratz Doll OOTD

Hello! Last weekend I got all dolled up to see Stereophonic at Playhouse Square with my main squeeze. Although the show sucked eggs, the OOTD was on point! Speaking of dolled up, I was very inspired by Bratz dolls when I styled this look. Bratz were my favorite dolls to play with when I was little and their trendy fashion inspired me then and now. I told Johnny about my outfit inspo and he said he was feeling Sabrina Carpenter over Bratz to which I replied “same thing”. It’s so true! Take a look at this Bratz/Sabrina Carpenter fit and let’s discuss:

Who? What? Wear?

Heart Sweater: Very Truly Yours, TJMaxx

Tennis Skirt: Kyodan, TJMaxx

Platforms: Sugar Thrillz, Dolls Kill

The brooch earrings were purchased forever ago from PacSun!

I purchased the absolutely darling Very Truly Yours sweater during my last shopping trip at TJMaxx. It was the first thing I saw when I walked into the store and I had a vision of an outfit a la That’s So Raven. In my head, I pictured the look you see above to the T and I just had to have that sweater to see it through. I was hoping to find a Valentine’s Day piece of clothing to wear to my Playhouse Square outing and what I found was pure candy hearts perfection. This sweater is so soft, sweet as can be, and is chock full of adorable details. I love the argyle diamonds, the piping on the collar, and those heart shaped buttons! My new sweater felt very Chloe from the Bratz collection and I definitely see where Johnny was coming from on the Sabrina Carpenter front. She is Chloe to the T!

I paired my sweater with a sassy little tennis skirt by Kyodan. While this is an athletic brand, they serve fashion while serving tennis and I can’t get enough of their skorts. They provide flounce sans any fear of a wardrobe malfunction and it was a gift that kept on giving as we hiked our way up to the balcony at the theater lol. I adore a pleated skirt as they are so girly and it kept with the ultra feminine vibes of the sweater. Although I was freezing my nads off even with the knee high socks, it was so worth it. 😀

Finally, it was onto shoes and accessories. For shoes, I opted for a gorgeous pair of platforms by Sugar Thrillz. The baby pink of the heels was an excellent match to the sweater while the pop of plaid added some funky fun. And, of course, the heart accents going across the shoe added to the Valentine’s Day flare. In the earrings department, I went for a pair of brooch style studs with a red rose in the middle. Roses are a classic V-Day gift and I said “make it fashion”! With that, I was off to see a terrible show with my honey as an early Love Day date. ❤

Is it Bratz or Sabrina Carpenter? I say both. I love my dolls and my beloved Miss Carpenter just as much as I love this look!

What is your favorite Sabrina Carpenter song? Which Bratz doll was your favorite? I want to hear from all of you, so leave me a comment and let’s chat! Much love. -Sarah

TJMaxx Haul

Posted on by

TJMaxx Haul

Hello! Nothing pleases me more than a good TJMaxx haul and the one I had with my Christmas gift cards was one of the best ones in recent memory. Normally when I am shopping at TJs, I let the store tell me what I need because you never know what you are going to get. This time around, however, I had a shopping list of what I would like to find and was able to completely check it off. A new Valentine’s Day piece of clothing? Check! New purse? Check. Black skinnies? Checkeroo. Skin care restock? Check, check, double check! Take a look at the rest of my haul:

As you all know, basically all I wear is black skinny jeans lol. They are just the perfect pantaloons and my Johnny concurs as that’s all he wears too! We are a match made in heaven. While black skinnies are perfect in every way, they fade and that is not okay with me. I need jet black, baby, and usually purchase one new pair per year. The past few times I have needed new jeans at TJs, I was lucky because I found some pairs of 1822 Denim which is the brand I normally wear. I couldn’t find any pairs of this brand during my shopping and ended up with a pair from Gap, instead. It was actually a nice change of pace! They fit like a glove and were less than half the original price. I have had one pair of Gap jeans in the past and I liked them a lot so it’s cool to revisit an old fave at the right price!

While it was great to find some new clothes and a purse, the most important thing on my shopping list was skin care. I like to follow the rule of threes when I purchase my beauty products. That way, I don’t have to go to the store monthly for more. I was so happy to find a huge bottle of my go to micellar water as well as a few moisturizers and a serum. I have never tried the Supergoop! brand and I’m looking forward to it! The best find, though, was the ValJean Labs cleanser – there was only one and it was tucked away. Their hydrating foaming cleanser was one of my most favorite products and I can’t wait to try the deep cleansing version. If you are on the hunt for a new cleanser, I truly can’t recommend this brand enough. Their scrubs are fabulous too. 😀

Thanks to this haul, I am good to go for the rest of winter. Although, let’s be real, you know I already can’t wait for a spring refresh shopping trip! 🙂
