Currently Obsessed with Olive Green

Lifestyle· Self Love

20 Mar
Have you ever gotten onto a color kick that you just can’t seem to quit or do you have a favorite color to wear that you keep buying again and again?  Well for me lately I’ve been obsessed with all things olive green.  From shoes, to tops, pants and bags, I’ve not been able to stop myself!
olive green clothing and accessories
It’s a great color right now as we transition from winter to spring. It’s feeling lighter and brighter, I’m sure you are wanting to shed all the heavy and dark winter colors in favor of lighter and brighter colors.
Because I’m obsessed and because it is a great color for this time of year, I’ve rounded up some of my current favorites in the hopes that you will get inspired too!
Madewell Tote | G.H. Bass Booties | Chiffon Top | J Crew Pants | olive cargo jacket | Lou & Grey Sweatpants
I love tote bags.  I’ve talked about them many times before and this one is the perfect casual bag.  I love my leather stripe one from last fall but wanted a canvas one that felt more casual.  When I found the Madewell tote in canvas and in olive green I knew I needed to add it to my wish list.  It’s one of the few early spring pieces I have added to my wardrobe.
I found these booties on sale after the holidays but didn’t buy them right away.  When Stewie chewed a pair of my boots destroyed them, I decided to get these instead of a pair of tall boots.  I’m so glad I got these because they are beautiful and extremely comfortable.  Having bad knees I wasn’t sure I’d like having a heel even though wedges tend to be more comfortable.  These don’t even feel like a heel and they are almost as comfortable as my sneakers!  The color is so pretty too and they look great with so many things.  A great alternative to black or brown.
One of my more recent purchases, I cannot wait for the weather to warm up enough to wear it.  I sized up to try to add length because it is shorter in the torso than I’d like.  It looks super cute layered over a tank top with jeans.  I love that it’s flowy without feeling bulky and it’s like a spring version of my beloved poncho!
I have a couple pair of olive cargo skinny pants from J Crew Factory and Banana Republic from a couple years ago that are very similar to these.  I didn’t buy these so I can’t speak for them specifically but the style is pretty close to the ones I have.  They are just as versatile as a pair of jeans so though I don’t need yet another pair of these pants, I really loved the color of these so I included them in this roundup.  If you don’t have a pair of pants like this, I highly recommend adding them to your wardrobe for a fun alternative to jeans.
I was so glad to see Old Navy kept this jacket for another season.  I bought mine last year as a replacement to a similar jacket from old navy from nearly 10 years ago.  I love the updated shape of this version and once again, the color and style makes it one of the most versatile pieces in my spring wardrobe!  I’ve been itching to pull mine out!
Olive is a great color for early spring and while it is a current obsession of mine, I know it will be a great color in your wardrobe as well.  Do you have a favorite from the round up or are you on a color kick right now?  If so, leave a comment below and tell me about it.

5 Ways to Transition Your Decor from Fall to Christmas (Without Feeling Rushed)

There’s something about a cottage-inspired home that instantly feels welcoming. Maybe it’s the layers of soft fabrics, the warm glow of a lamp in the corner, or the way everyday items are displayed with charm. To me, “cozy” doesn’t mean cluttered — it means creating a space where you can truly relax and enjoy the simple beauty of home. Over the years, I’ve discovered a few essentials that always make our home feel inviting and comfortable. These cozy touches are timeless, affordable, and easy to add no matter the size or style of your home. 🛋️ Soft Layers & Textiles Nothing says cozy like a stack of pillows and a throw draped over the sofa. I love mixing neutral tones with subtle patterns — florals, stripes, or checks — to create that layered, collected look. In bedrooms, a quilt or coverlet at the foot of the bed adds both charm and warmth. Image Suggestion: Wide shot of your living room sofa with throws and pillows layered. Pin-worthy vertical image. 🕯️ Warm Lighting Overhead lighting can feel harsh, so I rely on lamps, sconces, and even candles to create a warm glow. A cottage-inspired home shines with layered lighting — the soft glow of a lamp in the evening makes a room instantly more inviting. Image Suggestion: Close-up of a side table with a lamp, book stack, and candle burning. 🌿 Natural Elements Fresh flowers in simple vases, a basket by the door, a vintage wooden bowl — natural elements bring warmth and texture to a cottage home. Even faux greenery works if you mix it thoughtfully. Image Suggestion: Seasonal arrangement on your entryway table or kitchen counter (sunflowers, hydrangeas, or eucalyptus in fall). 📚 Personal Touches Books, artwork, and vintage finds tell your story. A stack of well-loved novels, a thrifted oil painting, or a collection of blue-and-white dishes make a space feel lived in and personal. Cozy isn’t about buying new — it’s about surrounding yourself with what you love. Image Suggestion: Styled bookcase or coffee table vignette with books + art + personal accents. 🧺 Comfort Underfoot Rugs are one of the easiest ways to add coziness to a room. I love mixing a natural jute or sisal rug with a smaller patterned rug layered on top. It adds instant warmth and that collected, cottage feel. Image Suggestion: Angle of your living room or bedroom showing layered rugs. 🍵 Kitchen Comforts A cozy home isn’t complete without the kitchen. For me, it’s having a favorite mug for my morning coffee, simple linen towels, and a candle flickering while I cook dinner. These small details make the everyday feel special. Image Suggestion: Coffee setup with mugs + candle + linen towel. Conclusion At the end of the day, creating a cozy cottage-inspired home isn’t about following strict rules. It’s about layering soft textures, adding warm light, and filling your rooms with pieces that feel personal and meaningful. These cozy essentials are what make our house feel like home — and I hope they inspire you to create the same in your space.
