Countdown

Top: Diane Von Furstenberg, Jean Cutoffs: Thrifted, Shoes: Dolce Vita   

       Summer is coming and I couldn't be more excited. Usually summer excites me because of the clothes, the long nights, and not going to the dreaded halls of high school everyday. This year I am excited because I just want to breathe. My year is closing with AP tests, grades closing, and driving hours. I just want to lie in bed sometimes and stop thinking about school! These kinds of clothes are the ones that I virtually live in. I just want something that I can throw on and it still looks cute. High waisted jean shorts are honestly my uniform. My mother has these long Mediterranean legs, and in the gene pool someone thought it would be funny to give me the short Irish tree stump legs. I'm here to tell you that there are many things you can do to make your legs not look like those of a munchkin from the Wizard of Oz. The first would be stick to dark colored pants and stay away from patterns.  The second would be wear heels as much as possible. The last is high waisted. I'm not saying that I suddenly have Kate Moss legs, trust me those suckers are still short. Wearing high waisted shorts elongates my legs just enough that I have a boost in confidence. And really it is about how you feel about yourself not how others feel about you. I hope you guys have a great day! xx 

Pink on Pink on Pink

My Wildfox Tee.

             This weekend I headed into the city with my sisters to do some back to school shopping, yes I know High School, ew. First we hit up Nordstrom and my little sisters went crazy in the kids department with kids J Brands and leopard Sperrys. After Nordys we headed for my stores, LF, Urban Outfitters, Zara, H&M, Saks, and Intermix. I probably scored the most at LF. It was there season sale so I decide to stock up on (usually overpriced) sweaters. When the shopping was done and our elbow creases were burning, we ended the day with a sweet treat. Usually that would a Pinkberry or some kind of froyo, but this time we opted for a cupcake. We went to the newly opened Georgetown cupcakes, which I have only good things to say about. If you ever go I recommend Salted Caramel, but that being said I would recommend anything flavored salted caramel (ice cream, coffee, gelato, froyo, Anything!) 

Shirt: Wildfox, Shorts: Zara, Bag: Louis Vuitton, Shoes: Steve Madden

             My outfit entirely in pink, I felt like Elle Woods. Dont mind my squinty eyes, natural hair, and bare face. When I shop I opt for comfort over chic, I know its embarrassing. 

Emi Jay hair ties and Dogeard necklace.

        My favorite accessories I scored at Nordys. The necklace is so dainty on and the hair ties not only look cute on your wrists or in your hair, but they dont snag or get stuck in your hair. 

The Summer Uniform

Top: Brandy Melville, Shorts: Brandy Melville, Shoes: Marshalls (Bargain shopper, holla!), Sunnies: Marc by Marc Jacobs 

       So basically I have one summer uniform and this is it. These denim shorts are tattooed on my legs at this point.  I like to stick with a plain white tee or tank, but sometimes I will substitute for a totally rad graphic tee. Oh and that is not my bra hanging out, its a little bikini of course. My shoes were indeed eight dollars at marshalls. They are definitely not my best quality shoes but they certainly serve their purpose. This is my completely crazy naturally curly hair. Saturday I'm getting a color change and I am so excited. 

Crochet and Leather

Sweater: LF, Shorts: Roxy, Boots: Steve Madden, Sunnies: Chloe

          This post features my beautiful friend Ally. When I was styling her, I knew I wanted to do something that reflected her style and personality. She is very girly but always has sort of an edge. We kept it casual with the short shorts. My favorite parts are the sequin detail in the sweater and the studded combat boots. I am so jealous of her gorgeous hair.
