Mellow Yellow

'

Shirt: J. Crew Cami: Vera Wang Denim: Forever 21 Shoes: Calvin Klein Jewelry: Forever 21, gifted Nail Color: Cherry Berry by Revlon

Just an easy comfortable outfit...I'm loving yellow this spring! It brightens and makes me feel awake and happy :) I've had my studded Vera cami forever and use it under shirts and alone in the summer...it's comfy but interesting - the mesh and metallic hardware make it a pretty funky, versatile staple. I purchased my flats at Macy's this past winter for a steal on the sale rack. I really do love shoes so much....

I will be in love with statement necklaces for as long as I live. I hope these guys stay around! :)

Weekend's almost here! :) xo

(J.) Crew Cut

Shirt: H&M Jacket: J. Crew (similar, here) Pants: Rugby Collection by Ralph Lauren Shoes: Apt. 9 Jewelry: Forever 21, gifted, vintage

Yesterday, my friends, I took the plunge. I've wanted to cut my hair shorter for a while now...I've just never had the courage to do it! Each time I sit in the hairdresser's chair and wonder "Well, can I do it today?" Every time the answer is "no, certainly not, just get a trim" (I go to a personable little salon on Route 23 called Hair & Us! Their amazing prices and wonderful staff make it my go-to place for awesome cuts). Yesterday was the day. I'm still working with it and trying to figure it all out, but it's been smooth sailing so far. It's best to keep your hair short if you have fine hair like mine - I'm a sucker for "big hair" and with long locks, it's hard to keep it full. It actually looks longer in photos than it actually is!

I'm loving these pants. In the dead heat of summer, when it is ninety-five degrees with 90% humidity, you will see me in these corduroy cargo skinnies. Okay, maybe not, but I'll be thinking about them and longing for cooler temperatures. You can dress them up and down and all the way around - they are comfortable and slimming and really just make you feel put together in a cool, casual kind of way. My J. Crew red/pink cropped jacket is another favorite that can be worn any which way....it's so fun to pick and choose and try out pieces for different functions. 

We're half way through the week, and spring break is right around the corner! Anyone have any cool plans? Looking forward to some time off? I know I am!

A Little Skirt Never Hurt

Shirt: H&M Skirt: J. Crew Shoes: Apt. 9 for Kohl's Jewelry: Forever 21, Gifted Nail Polish: China Glaze, Sugar High 

I know I look a bit angry in these pictures (the sun was in my eyes, guys, sorry!) but when it comes to my favorite skirt, I'm as happy as a clam (a glam clam, mind you). These shoes might also become a new favorite...overall, they're comfortable and rather easy to walk in - which are my requirements when buying heels. I think it's silly to stumble through your day in shoes that pinch, make you bleed, or make you waddle. Dumb, right? 

Happy Monday! Check out the pick of the week, coming soon to a navigation tab near you! ;)

PS: No, that is not a real mommah duck and her ducklings behind me. In case you were wondering.

Enjoy your lazy Sunday :)

Easy, Breezy, Beautiful Dresses

Dress: Kohl's Shoes: Rubi Jewelry: Forever 21, gifted

I love this weather and all that comes with it...the blooming flowers, the open skies, and the short hem lines! I'm so happy spring is finally here....Today was just the day for a simple dress. Flowy and easy, straight to the point...It has a slight high-low hemline, too, which is a nice touch, and is lacy in the back. Also, tip: For all you girls who are vertically challenged (comme moi) look for shoes that are are "pointy" in the front.  Pointy-toed shoes automatically extend and elongate your legs - and what girl wouldn't want that? (Better picture of the shoes in the post below!)

Have a great weekend! :) xo

Name That Pattern

Shorts & Shirt: Forever 21 Shoes: Rubi Jewelry: Gifted, Lucky Brand, Forever 21 Purse: Dooney & Bourke Nail Color: Revlon Grey Suede 

I am off and running...babysitting and school have taken me over! Hope everyone's having a nice week...and don't forget: patterns, patterns, patterns! :) 

Look What My Socks Can Do

....time for a new pick of the week! Check it out....located above, in the navigation bar :) Happy Monday!

Also, I know a couple of you have asked about my go-to hairstyle, the sock bun....when I don't have time to curl my hair in the morning with this baby, I roll my hair into a (clean) sock.  This style is fun, flirty, and above all, easy. It works for most hair types, as long as you have some length to your 'do. Let me know if you have any questions, but here's a quick and easy tutorial that should walk you through the basic steps.

 (I recommend using a sock that is close to your hair color, just in case you have a few peekaboos!)

Mustard, Please.

Chambray Shirt: Forever 21 Sweater: Forever 21 Skirt: Forever 21 Shoes: DSW Necklace: American Eagle Bangle: Lucky Brand Earrings: Forever 21 

And the color mismatching continues....I've been craving a mustard piece of clothing ever since I saw Kendi wearing these! 

I suppose I'll keep it short and sweet right now :) Have a great weekend everyone and as always, thanks for reading! xo
