2021 officially goes down in the books as the year of resolutions. Resolving to stay healthy, resolving to get into great shape after months stuck at home, resolving to get better at resisting the pint of chocolate ice cream in the freezer...(one of us might not be doing so well with the latter). We’ve had so much quarantined time to build up resolutions that the list is a mountain high and not getting any shorter. In looking at all my resolutions I decided to parse them down to only one: F...
I'm Liz, and I'm the creator behind With Wonder and Whimsy, a fashion, travel, and lifestyle blog all about romancing the everyday. I write about fanciful fashion, pastel home decor, food and wine, theme parties, and romantic travel. It's my mission to provide readers with whimsical outfit inspiration, a variety of plus size shopping options, and styling tips for making the most of the items in their closets. I believe that getting dressed is a way to practice confidence. And when we dress more confidently, we live more confidently.
Hi there! We’re Sarah and Leah, identical twins and best friends behind the blog Two Scoops of Style. We love sharing sister fun, colorful styles, and petite friendly outfits. When we’re not blogging, you can find us singing opera and teaching music. Dress up with us and follow along our twin adventures!
I started the Mrs. Stafford Blog because I noticed that there were so many great lifestyle bloggers out there, but they weren't addressing the issues that women I know are dealing with. I wanted to build a safe space for all of us to be open and honest and have some “Real Talk” about the issues that come with “growing up” as I call it. No topic is off limits! I believe women my age are at the point in life where we can find our true sense of style, and in turn, a true understanding of ourselves. It doesn't matter what others think or expect you to look like. This is the time in life where we should just enjoy ourselves and not be concerned about what others think. So, I cover fashion as well as real topics women my age deal with but that’s not all. Some other fun topics I cover are beauty and skincare products/regimes, interior design, cooking, and binge worthy documentaries. I also do a bi-monthly beauty advice column and giveaway. Did I mention I do tons of great giveaways throughout the year too? In today’s world, we don’t seem to respect the wisdom and beauty that comes with age; let’s try and do that here! This blog is all about building a community of strong women who can support each other, share our life experiences, and feel like we aren't alone in this crazy world. Finally, let’s have some fun doing it!

Rose Gold has become an iconic color, from fashion to interior design, and I don’t see it going away anytime soon. Recently my daughter completely re-designed her master bathroom, finished with, yes, rose gold hardware. (It’s gorgeous, btw.)Rose Gold is also remarkably versatile because it includes such an extensive spectrum of hues. You can go super feminine in soft pink tones, or occasion-chic in a metallic, shimmering shade. Rose Gold also carries into every season—bright and festive for...
Adrianna Papell’s new rose gold line packs a heavy dose of glam in the classiest of packages. If you’re looking for a dressy holiday number or a special occasion dress, rose gold is THE way to go.
With many of us enjoying a quieter holiday at home this year, Adrianna Papell has gowns to add some sparkle and joy to your festivities! I’m Liz of the blog With Wonder and Whimsy, and I’m thrilled to be teaming back up with Adrianna Papell to share five theme night ideas for a magical holiday at home (with the perfect dress to match each theme!).
Family Portraits
Your Christmas tree, front porch decorations, and mantle are perfect backdrops for family photos. A lot of why we dress up d...
Fashion posts are so much fun for me, this one especially. As a Mom, (and a woman of a certain age,) the world often dictates how to dress and even how to act. But age should never be a factor when it comes to true style. My goal for this blog is to encourage women my age to wear what feels good, not what others say you “should!”
MY NEW FAVORITE BRAND
I’ve always promised that I’ll never promote a brand I don’t believe in wholeheartedly, which is why I’m so excited to share my experience...
I’ll be the first to admit that 2020 has become the year of yoga pants. In fact, when Stay at Home ordinances began, I practically jumped for joy that nothing would come between me and my loungewear for the foreseeable future. I was surprised, however, to find that after a month of stretchy pants and comfy tees, I missed getting ready and feeling amazing in my outfits every morning. I missed wearing statement pieces that would have my friends asking where I found them, and most of all, I mi...
