Happy New Year!

BLAZER: Nordstrom BP   DRESS: Nordstrom BP   SHOES: Lower Eastside   BRACELETS: Claires 

Happy New Year! The best way to dress up for new years eve is to wear something sparkly and fun. I wanted to keep this look pretty simple with just a little pop of sparkle. Paring a cute oxblood boyfriend blazer with a simple black dress with a little pizzazz gives a great sense of grownup feel. Having a stacked wrist it helps focus more on the look then the accessories. Some of my goals that I've made for myself are being accepted into a college that I want and have good grades. I also want to make a difference within my school. I hope that you had a great New Years, what are some your 2014 goals?

Pattern Play

BLAZER: H&M   DRESS: Gap   NECKLACE: Forever 21   BOOTS: Steve Madden   BAG: Rebecca Minkoff

Making outfits look classy and fun at the same time can be a challenge. I chose this simple black dress from the Gap, which gives the outfit just the right amount of elegance and paired it with a great geometric patterned blazer from H&M to make the look stand a little more. I added the white tights to give the look a fresh pop, the wedge boots for a bit of a heel (my favorite), and simple gold jewelry to help keep it all classy. I hope everyone is enjoying December so far!

All Grown Up

SHIRT: Forever 21  SCARF: H&M   JEANS: Gap   BOOTS: Steve Madden

 It's officially cold up here. Like really cold. Like so cold that I gave my sister evil looks in between photos during this outfit shoot. But hey, at least it wasn't raining! Now that the crisp fall weather is  starting to ween into chilly winter days I really wanted to get as much use out of the jeans, boot, shirt and scarf go-to as I could. This time around I wanted to go for a more fancy, grown up look, which I think is super cute for maybe a Thanksgiving outfit or shopping downtown for Christmas gifts. I love this scarf from H&M because of how large and colorful it is. Since this color was impactful enough I wanted to keep the remaining outfit pieces more along the neutral lines. These Steve Madden boots are so great to pair with an outfit like this. Do any of you have a favorite "go-to" pair of boots for the fall and winter months?

Sweater Weather

Every fall season needs some sweater love. Being comfy and cozy are key for me during this time of year. A nice sweater with a cute pattern or knit and a dark wash jean can give you just the right amount of cuteness for this fall season. Sparkle accessories are optional!
