Stripes & Plaid

Top ($10 right now) // Jacket (similar)// Scarf // Denim // Loafers // Tote (this is a brand new version and i'm OBSESSED)

I burnt my finger so badly on a frying pan last night that it is so hard to type. Today at work should be fun seeing as I am typing on a computer or a calculator ALL day! I am so excited that it is friday because two of my besties are coming to visit me in Milwaukee!! I have planned so many fun things and just cannot even wait to see them!

About this outfit. I love mixing prints...i'ts one of my favorite ways to have fun with putting an outfit together. This +Old Navy tee is so comfy and will be a perfect layering piece moving forward into fall. You can do so much with navy and white stripes!

It was absolutely FREEZING in Chicago on friday night. I did not pack well for the weekend so I had to quickly run out to H&M to find a long sleeve top. I love this one because the sleeves are adorable! I also found this hat there and am absolutely obsessed with it!

Bright Florals

 

Floral Top // Denim (favorite) // Heels // Crossbody Bag // Bracelet // Sunglasses // Rings // Lipcolor: Rose Intime

I picked up this shirt at Forever 21 and walked around with it in my arms for the rest of my shopping trip, during that time...get this...THREE people (including the check out lady) asked where I found the shirt. I guess everyone loved it as much as I do! The floral is such a pretty contrast against the black. This lipstick is also my one of my favorites because it smells so AMAZING. For all of you who are not the biggest fan of lipstick or are just searching for a good summer color/gloss/stick this is definitely one you should try! It is really light and feels amazing on your lips, not as heavy as some normal lipsticks!

Everyday Kimono

Top // Kimono // Denim // Espidrilles // Tote // Sunglasses: Nordstrom // Watch: Kate Spade (on sale) // Nail Color: My Boyfriend Scales Walls // Lips: Impassioned

I've been buying a lot of denim lately. I usually am willing to spend a little more on my denim because it is something that I wear a lot and will last for quite a while. (I never dry my denim and wash it sparingly) I have read statements by both the Levis CEO and Tommy Hilfiger that say to never machine wash you jeans or even wash them in general! I personally could never do that but I do try to go a few days without washing them to help them keep their color. I have told you a couple times about how I am obsessed with +DL1961denim and these are my newest pair. I do have a promo code you can use on their website; DLFRIENDS40 for 40% off select items!! 

I am also crazy about this new kimono I picked up. I love kimonos because they are such an easy item to throw on. I love it now with denim but I will also be pairing this over boho sundresses this spring and summer with these cute new wedges I just bought!
 These shoes are also super cute...I have a serious love hate relationship with +Target. I can't even just go in there for one thing, I love EVERYTHING, I call it the Target Vortex and I just can't escape it. These shoes were my latest Target buy and I'm obsessed with the leather cap toe! They also came in leopard which were also adorable!

Happy Tuesday!

It's all in the details

Top // Denim // Booties // Handbag // Lipcolor: Michiyo // Sunglasses

I love love love this top, it's super cute to just throw on with jeans and booties for now but with wedges or sandals for spring! The lighting in some of these pictures is not that great, so I apologize but the actual coloring of the top is like an army green with peachy detail on the pockets. Super adorable. Usually I would just retake the photos with better lighting but with -12 degree weather....I can't muster up the courage to go out there again! I started this blog when the weather was just starting to get cold, it will be so strange to take my photos when the air isn't literally assaulting me! Hurry up spring!

Winter Neutrals

Sweater // Coat (similar here as well) // Denim // Boots // Clutch (similar, and SO SO cute) // Bracelet // Lip Color: Rialto

I'm definitely more of a color person, but I also think that having great neutral pieces is essential to building your wardrobe. They are typically the easiest combination to put together and that is great for days where you are struggling to put an outfit together. I love this sweater because of the leather elbow patches, it takes a basic sweater and adds the perfect detail. Also, I've been wearing these boots like crazy lately. They make my legs look longer and that is always a good thing!
