When I think of wide legged jumpsuits and chunky platforms, I totally think 70’s glam. The 70’s is definitely my favorite decade when it comes to fashion and beauty. I thought this look would be perfect for Valentine’s Day date night or even a gal’s night. I love how this jumpsuit shows just the right amount of skin, and the faux fur shawl and bold heels really dress it up. I’ve linked some similar jumpsuits below! Also, these chunky platform heelsare actually now on sale – which is so groovy.
Business in the front, party in the back. Your favorite dress has to be that perfect combination of classy and fun, and the Katy Halter dress is no exception. Show Me Your Mumu stopped my Sorority house last Friday for a trunk show. I had such a fun time trying on everything and playing dress up. I was, of course, unable to stop myself from picking up my favorite dress in one of their exclusive college tour prints. The red and blue pattern makes for the perfect gameday dress.
I am a strong believer in investing in versatile pieces- those go-to dresses, skirts, shorts, and tops that you find yourself constantly reaching for. At first glance, you would assume this is not a fall time dress whatsoever. However, with the help of some layering, it becomes ready for those chilly, autumn afternoons. There is something so special about the Katy Halter Dress. It’s also so incredibly versatile, making it that perfect dress for church or a night out with the girls. I find myself wearing it year round and styling it in new ways each time. I’ve been wearing this halter dress all season with warm layers, and I am also throwing it in my suitcase for my upcoming trip to Maui.
I decided that it would be fun to style my favorite, little dress for both day and night. For daytime I paired it with a chunky, neutral cardigan, a long necklace and fringe booties. I threw on my favorite, sassy sunglasses as well (that are under $6!). I also plan on pairing the dress with a denim jacket and riding boots for casual fall days as well. This look is great for holiday shopping and even brunch with the family.
Thank you so much for checking out my blog. Also, big thanks to my favorite person, Layne, for taking these gorgeous photos (y’all can check her out on instagram at @layne_little).
So this is a short, little throwback post that I’ve been meaning to put up! Cold shoulder tops, patterned shorts, statement earrings, and braids are just a few of my summer faves. I got this outfit from Red Dress Boutiquea few months ago, so it is not available anymore. However, I linked some similar options. I love cold shoulder tops because they are a little more comfortable than off the shoulder tops (you don’t have to pull them up every five seconds), but they still add something fun and different to your outfit. I paired the outfit with a simple braid and some bold, blue cobalt earrings for a night out!
Hope you all are having a fabulous, fabulous Wednesday!
Never did I ever think I would wear a midi skirt, let alone fall in love with one. A few months ago I was shopping for skirts online and stumbled across this one on forever21. I hesitated for a second or two before putting in my cart because I wasn’t sure if I would end up actually wearing it. It was such a good impulse buy and has easily become one of my summer staples. This is a little bit of a ‘tbt’ post because I wore this outfit back when my mom was visiting me in London. I paired this white midi skirt with my favorite chambray button down for a night out in the city to see Mama Mia, one of my favorite musicals. I really, really enjoyed all of the lively songs and costumes.
Sadly this exact skirt is not available anymore online, but it might still be in stores because I purchased it about two months ago. Below I posted some different ways that I plan on styling my white midi skirt over the next few weeks.
Thank you so much for checking out my blog! Hope you all are having a fabulous week!
Hello friends! It’s a beautiful day in London, so I thought I would fill y’all in on my week. I am not going to lie- my first two weeks here were not easy. Moving to a foreign country by yourself is terrifying, but completely exciting at the same time. This has really been a time for me to reflect on life, my goals, and myself, as cliche as it sounds. It’s been nice to learn independence from a completely new perspective, and I’ve honestly learned a tremendous amount. I finally feel completely like myself, and it is truly the best feeling after being so sick. It’s crazy how fast time goes by. It feels like just yesterday I was arriving to this amazing city, and now I am marking my calendar for week four. It’s crazy! I am having the best time of my life though, and I don’t ever want to leave!!
This has been one of my favorite dresses of summer. I kinda wear it weekly because it is so easy and versatile. Y’all may remember it from my previous post ‘Little White Dress‘ because yes, I own it in two colors. I feel like whenever I really, really love a piece, I buy it in every color. No big deal. And guess what- it is on sale! Yayyy! I paired it with my favorite white & neon sandals and a glamorous backpack (hah). A lot of y’all have been asking about which backpack I will be using for my junior year of college, and this is it! Northface backpacks are seriously my favorite, and they are so durable. I also paired this dress with some white earrings (which are now on sale here!) and a simple gold bracelet for a casual look. However, I think you could definitely dress it up with some bold turquoise statement earrings andneutral wedges!
My little sister, Allie, is coming to visit me in London this week, and I am beyond excited to see her. We are going to take a weekend trip to Paris with my friend! If any of y’all have any Paris recommendations, please, please let me know! I would love some fun suggestions!
Everybody loves a little black dress. But for summer, the little white dress is a must-have. I find myself wearing them constantly during the summer time because they are incredibly versatile and look great with a tan. Out of all of the white dresses I own, this oneis definitely my favorite. I love the lace detailing and the open back. I also own it in black as well! I love to pair “the little white dress” with turquoise and gold jewelry. It’s definitely my favorite color combination for the season.
Sadly, the weather in Texas has been rainy again. We had a nice week or so of sunshine, but lately it’s been back to tropical storms. I spent the day in Dallas and had a great time visiting the Dallas Museum of Art and eating Sprinkles cupcakes! Between packing for 8+ weeks abroad, having friends in town, and accidentally having my hair dyed gray- it’s been a chaotic week! I couldn’t be more excited to head to Africa tomorrow for a perfect safari getaway.
This tie-dye, bell sleeved shift has helped me beat those Monday blues. It can be hard getting out of bed in the summer (especially when you’re a little addicted to 90210), but this fun printed dress makes it easier! This has definitely become one of my favorite pieces in my closet because it is so perfect for Sunday brunch, evenings with friends, and even those fall game days. I purchased this dress in the store during March, and it was love at first sight. However, it is currently sold out online (so I linked two similar options). I paired it with some gold sandals and cool toned earrings. I also decided to add my white fringe purse to bring out the whites in the dress. It’s been a fabulous week here in Texas with even more fabulous weather. I can’t believe I head off for Tanzania in just 10 days- I am so excited!
Nothing says summer like a bold, tropical pattern. These Show Me Your Mumu shorts have definitely been my favorite piece in my closet for the past few months. I feel like I wear them weekly. They are incredibly comfortable, and surprisingly pretty versatile. I recently purchased them in white as well. I usually pair these shorts with a white or denim shirt, but today I tried them out with a fun, hot pink tank.
I also included pictures of the two baby kittens we have been fostering for the past few weeks. We took them to the Humane Society yesterday, so that they can find a good home. They were so sweet and we had the best time taking care of them!
Thank you so much for checking out my blog. Have an awesome weekend!
Who else is ready for the weekend? Usually, I’m one for dressing head to toe in bright, neon hues. However, I decided to borrow my sister’s muted Free People tee to try something different. To keep with the muted feel, I paired the top with some off-white shorts and bone colored sandals. I also added my favorite Rebecca Minkoff purse because it really adds something fun to the simplest outfits. I’ve been loving fringe this season!
When I saw this dress go up on my favorite online boutique a few months ago, I knew I needed this fun piece in my closet. The bright tie dye really adds a fun pop of color to any rainy day. I decided to pair it with my favorite Tory Burch wedges and some bold Kendra Scott Skylar earrings. To finish the rainbow look, I added some bright lips with the Revlon Colorburst matte balm stain in the shade ‘Sweetheart Valentine’. It’s that perfect fuchsia shade that really works for any summer outfit. The matte balm stain is super pigmented and long lasting; I’ve been loving it this month! Sadly, this tie dye dress isn’t available on Red Dress Boutique anymore, but there are so many other cute and bright dresses available on their site at the moment! (Also, if you use the code ‘FIRECRACKER’ today you can get 30% off!)
P.S. I am heading to my favorite store, Lush today! I will making a post some time this week about my Lush ‘hits and misses’ over the years!
