Hot Pink Corduroys

December 5, 2016

Happy Thursday Y’all!

I hope everyone has been enjoying their Christmas holidays. Sorry I have been M.I.A. the past couple of weeks, but I have been SO busy! After final exams were over, my best friend and I headed to Disney World for a week with Mickey. We had an amazing time with cheesy matching shirts and all! Our favorite day was drinking around the world in Epcot (of course). I highly recommend going because the drinks (well most of them) are fabulous, and it’s a nice break from all the people and rides. Don’t get me wrong, it is still busy, but everyone is taking it easy and enjoying themselves!

If you haven’t noticed, I have a tad obsession with the color pink. 10 times out of 10, I will always choose the pink option if there is one! So when I found these Vineyard Vines cords, I knew they were a must-have! They actually have a skinny boyfriend fit, which surprised me. I wanted to feature them on the blog in an unconventional way, so I paired the cords with a sleeveless sweater and my favorite sneaker wedges! These wedges are everything. I mean I LOVE them! They somehow go with basically everything and have the perfect heel height. Unfortunately, my easy sleeveless sweater is unavailable, but I linked a similar one I might just buy too! Have a great rest of the week, and remember Friday AND the Christmas weekend start tomorrow! Yay!

70s Inspired Fall Florals

December 2, 2016

Top: Karlie Clothes (Similar) | Pants: Free People | Shoes: Marc Fisher | Purse: Louis Vuitton | Earrings: Marcia Moran

Happy Friday Y’all!

I know it’s been a week, but I hope everyone had a fabulous Thanksgiving with family and friends! Like most of you, I ate so much food and felt like the break flew by too quick. Luckily, if we can make it through finals week, Christmas break is right around the corner! I am mainly excited to finish up the semester so I can post more on the blog these next few weeks. Finals and projects are no joke in college!

Like clockwork, fall florals return every season even bigger than the previous year. Regardless if you see them on the runway or in style magazines, you just know they will continue to be one of your favorite fall trends! When I saw this Karlie top at market in October, I knew I needed it in my closet! The colors alone are gorgeous, but the Victorian style with smocked sleeves is what really sold me. (Not that it was hard to do!) I wanted to incorporate another trend this season too, the 70s inspired look, so I paired this sweet top with Free People corduroy flare jeans. I think it was a perfect choice! Both Karlie and Free People are two of my favorite brands, so anytime I can style them together is great! I also love that they are so different because I like to experiment with various styles. Everything is linked above! Have a fun and safe weekend, and good luck studying for finals! 🙂

Trend Alert: Off The Shoulder Sweaters

November 24, 2016

Happy Thanksgiving Y’all!

With the cold temperatures sticking around, I wanted to share one of my favorite winter trends: off the shoulder sweaters! OTS tops were all the rage during the summer, so it was only right that the trend transitioned into cozier, thicker fabrics. This style is perfect if you’re wanting to break away from predictable oversized sweaters to try something more daring. (Trust me, I still love those predictable oversized sweaters though!) The sweater I am wearing is actually a cowl neck that I sized up in to make it off the shoulder! I bought it from Nordstrom (huge shock), and it is ON SALE! At this great price, they won’t last long, but there are still a few sizes left. I also linked another OTS sweater above that I have my eye on. It’s a soft gray color that will match with everything!

I hope everyone has had a blessed Thanksgiving full of family, friends, and lots of food. Be on the lookout for my 70s inspired Thanksgiving outfit post in a few days!

Dusty Pink + Gray Combo

November 14, 2016

I have been absolutely loving this fall weather lately! It only took two months for Mississippi to catch up with the new season, so my fall purchases are finally being put to use. Like I have said before, I LOVE colors. Especially unusual colors that you don’t typically see during the fall. When I noticed the dusty pink pieces all over the runway, I was hooked. Needless to say, I have picked up quite a few things in dusty pink. I found this Free People jacket at Quarter Century, and I knew it would become a staple for the next few months. The military style has been seen in lots of outerwear garments for fall and this jacket is no exception with its feminine ruffled hem. The plaid shirt (also Free People) complimented the jacket perfectly, so of course it came home with me too! And let me just say, y’all NEED these gray Karlie jeans. They have an amazing fit and structure, not to mention the best color gray jeans you’ve ever seen! I’m pretty positive I hit the jackpot, so I’ll probably be wearing them all the time! Haha. Everything else I am wearing is linked below. If y’all have any questions, feel free to comment on this post!

XOXO
