Floral Mix








Top - H&M
Skirt - Mossimo
Shoes - Aldo 
Necklaces - Forever21
Bracelet - Fossil

Here's a tip for when you're shopping at Target (which, if you're anything like me, is 1-2 times a week): try and find online returns because they mark those items down like crazy. I got this new skirt, that is super comfy, for $4.56 and I'm the kind of person whose day can be turned completely around by tiny stuff like that, so next time you're there be on the look out. 

Anyway, I hope y'all are having a fabulous day and will have an even more fabulous week!

Mint to Be





Top - JC Penney
Cardigan - J. Crew (buy something similar here)
Skirt - Forever21(buy it here)
Shoes - TOMS (These are from last year, but check out their new line here)
Watch - Fossil
Necklace - I believe it's vintage, so I'm not exactly sure where it's from

Yesterday I had to go to an advising session at the college I am transferring to and decided I wanted to wear something that looked professional but casual at the same time (since it's not like it was an interview or anything), and this is what I came up with. I love pairing mint and white together, it just seems like one of the the most gorgeous color combinations.

Piece of advice, though, if you're planning on meeting with an adviser or someone else on a campus you don't know like the back of your hand and are directionally-impaired like I am. . . leave super early and have a good idea of where you need to be (meaning look at a map a thousand times) and don't be too proud to ask for help. Also, if you haven't yet, download google maps to your smart phone, if you have one, and keep track of where you're going because let's face it, without it I would not have found the building I needed to be at on time and I dislike hate being late.

It'll Be a Bright Day






Top - Gap 
Skirt - Merona  
Shoes - Charlotte Russe 
Belt - Target 

Can we just take a minute to talk about how much I love this skirt? It's so comfortable and versatile, it's ridiculous. I need to go back to Target (psh. Where else?) and get like a thousand more. 

I love pairing skirts like this with brightly colored tops or accessories to really make it stand out. How do you like styling versatile skirts like this? Leave me a comment below!

And as always, thank y'all so much for checking this post out!

Shades of Red and Black







Skirt - Mossimo
Blouse - Old Navy
Blazer - Mossimo
Shoes - Anne Klein
Bag - Longchamp Le Pliage
Watch - Fossil

I am so done with this Winter thing . . . I'm thinking I need to move somewhere where it is warm year-round, and preferably where there is a beach in close proximity to my house. But no, I still have about a month left of this crazy cold then warm weather because the weather where I live has irrational mood swings. I am so happy about this day, though, because it has been raining like crazy for the past few days and today it is gorgeous.

Anyway, I'm loving this outfit because it's perfect for ridiculous weather like this, and I love wearing red and black together because red is such a great pop of color against dark colors. I tend to wear a ton of black during Winter, so switching it up whenever I can is needed.

Hot Pink Holidays







Dress/make-shift skirt: Xhilaration
Sweater - H&M
Tights - Target
Boots - ShoeDazzle
Headband - Forever21
Watch - Invicta
Bag - Longchamp Le Pliage

I'm super happy to be posting again because now I am done with this semester! Finally! I feel like these past 4 months have been the longest months of my life and I'm so glad I finally have some free time to blog more and not think about school for a little while. It's going to be amazing, so make sure you're watching out for new posts from me because I'm planning on some fun stuff in the next few weeks.

Today I decided to pull out these ridiculously bright hot pink tights because I was in the mood for brightening up this pretty dreary day, and what better way to do that than to wear bright clothing, right? Especially when it is nearing Winter since all that black and gray can get pretty underwhelming and wearing bright clothes is just more fun in general :)

Anyway, hope y'all liked this post! Please check out some of my other sites as well:

Mixing Fall Up


O






Dress - H&M
Denim Jacket - Forever21
 Shoes - Mossimo (Get them here)

Fall is officially here and one of my favorite trends is mixing patterns, and of course some of my favorite patterns are polka dots (as Jess in New Girl says, "I rock a lot of polka dots") and leopard print so it's almost instinctive to pair them together. . .  of course there are times when mixing patterns can get out of control and look like a hot mess, but if you don't overdo it it can look so fabulous.

What are some of your favorite trends for Fall? Tell me in the comments below!

And P.S. If you haven't already, check out Sephora.com for the Urban Decay eyeshadow sale ($6 each!). I know a lot of the colors have gone extremely fast so get there asap if you wanna pick some up.

Skirt - Decree

Bag - Longchamp Le Pliage in Deep Red

So I'm taking a break from biology homework because it is stressing me out like crazy. I have an exam on Tuesday and I have no idea how I'm going to remember what the heck a peptidoglycan does... there are so many terms and diagrams to memorize. *sigh* Anyway, I didn't get very many good pictures today because when I went out to take some my camera's battery decided to die on me about 5 pictures in, so that didn't help much, but luckily a did get a few. Overall this day has been testing my patience, but I'm hoping it gets a little bit better... and that I can remember all these bio terms by Tuesday.

Oh also, I have a couple ideas about new posts and videos, but I wanted to get some of y'alls suggestions, so please comment on this post and let me know what you would like to see in the future. That would be a huge help :)
