Goodies

Got some adorable goodies from my mom after her fun shopping weekend with her sisters! 

I'm super excited about this metallic polka-dotted summer scarf! It'll be super comfy and cute with a tank top and shorts. 

Also, the fashion quote will look great on my style shelf!

Styles for Work

As a Sales Associate in a unique gift shop, I pride myself on putting together cute outfits for each work day. Here's some fun choices!

I love this duo of a fun polka dot blouse with the hot pink denim skirt. One of my fave styles this summer has been tucked shirts with belts, so this metallic belt helped tie the outfit together.

Another fun pattern! Chevron is one of my favorite trends, it kind of works with everything! Of course some cuffed skinny jeans pass for cute capris, and the outfit was also super comfy and convenient for the shop's big (and BUSY) summer sale - from running the register to wrapping gifts! (Side note... I did wear shoes!)

 Ah, how I love my pink! This ruffle-sided, flowy top is one of my absolute favorites (Francesca's!). It worked well with my white capris and another metallic belt.

Vacation Essentials

It's finally summer!!! Ahhhhh, I'm do excited to be finished with the stress of school, homework, and tests! It's kind of funny, I feel like now that my brain is free of all the school stuff, it can absorb so much information! 

Of course the word "summer" goes with the word "vacation" and I'm lucky to say that I am enjoying one right now :) Cancun, Mexico, baby! It's goregous here, but the large amount of sunburn on my body is not fun... (thank The Lord for aloe). Aside from a reminder to wear sunscreen (wear it, seriously), I'm excited to show you some of the fun and summer outfits I've put together for this trip! 

From flowy dresses to khaki shorts, I had a variety of different outfits for this trip, but I focused on comfort and style! :)

And now a few tips for this season of travel! 

#1 - comfort is a necessity. Take it from someone who spent two days limping around the resort because she wore uncomfortable sandals on what turned out to be a 3 mile walk... (Can you say blisters??)

#2 - a light cardigan can be a savior on a chilly evening out to dinner or for a walk on the beach. Easy to pack and a super cute addition to your sundress!

#3 - tropical areas abroad are the perfect places to show off funky jewelry and hair accesories! (Note my new flower crown!!

...and now a photo of our beautiful resort!!

I hope you're having a great start to this sunny season! Comment any of your best "traveling in style" tips! 

Working Girl

13 hours and counting of work today... From my part-time job as a sales associate to my at-home job as live-in babysitter for my siblings, I'm a busy girl... But all is well when I have a great outfit!

I love this ensemble of a coral hi/low dress (Nordstrom), gold flats (Charming Charlie), and thd classic jean jacket (Love Culture). Add some chunky jewelry and soft curls, and I am off to work!

Oscar Night!

Been awhile since my last post... But I thought a good way to get right back into it would be a post of the best of the best of Academy Award fashions! 

So here are my personal faves!

Jennifer Lawrence in Dior Couture

Sandra Bullock in Alexander McQueen

Lupita Nyong'o in Prada

 Anne Hathaway in Gucci 

Jennifer Garner in Oscar de la Renta

Ahh... How I wish I could walk the red carpet... (Someday!)

Pop of Pink

It is a well-known fact that I have a great adoration for the color pink, so I have a lot of fun incorporating hints of it into some of my non-pink outfits.

For this black and white ensemble, I added a bright pink belt and my hot pink monogram necklace (available at Miss Bailey's! ~ see About Me page). Both accesories give my outfit a pop of color and a whimsical touch.
