Preppy Diaries: Let's Get Nauti

Your So Nauti
As we all know I am obsessed with anchors. Anchors on shirts, skirts, sweaters, jewelry, anything anchor I want it basically. So, for this nautical look I paired a chambray anchor shirt with this bright green linen skirt. These J Crew skirts are probably my favorite skirts to date. They fit perfect, have pockets, and are super comfortable. I find myself wearing them a lot. 

For accessories I layered two fun statement necklaces for a fabulous layered look. Then I wore some bracelets, a neutral watch, and some boat shoes. This look is super fun and nautical which I love. I wore this to work but this would be a great outfit to wear for any day. 




When your crafts and outfit are on point nothing can be better! I recently I have been crafting for my room and for my future little (whoever she may be!). So, I have been doing a lot of canvases.

I love this layered necklace look. The tiny rhinestone necklace gives the pearls and extra hint of glam and sparkle.

OOTD: Vintage Nautical

Pin Up Inspired 
For this look I took a vintage spin on the nautical trend. By adding the headband it kind of gave it a vintage pin-up girl vibe. Which I kind of love! To create this look I paired my favorite anchor shorts with a simple denim shirt. I have worn this denim shirt a bunch this summer and I am in love! You can pair it with practically anything which makes it super versatile. Also, I added a splash of red with both my lipstick and my earrings. I love these earrings because they have a small anchor detail which ties in the whole look. For shoes I kept things simple with my angelfish Sperry Top-Siders. They add an extra touch of nautical to the look. 




These earrings are super adorable! I have a severe anchor addiction I have to admit. 



I love wearing a bold red lip! Its great to add a pop of color to a neutral look.

A New Bag...

Anchored in cuteness! 


A little while back I got this new purse from J Crew. It is super adorable and oh so nautical! I have been obsessed with anything that has an anchor or that is nautical recently and this bag is no exception. It can be a clutch or you can use the chain and carry it like a normal purse. Overall it is a super cute bag and a great addition to my collection. 

XOXO

Preppy Diaries: Neon and Navy




This outfit is one of my favorite looks I have worn in a while! It features three of my favorite new pieces. One being this bright neon button down shirt from J Crew. Its such a fun piece and I will be wearing it a lot this spring and summer. Another new piece I have been loving is my J Crew seersucker loafers. They feature a fun anchor to give an extra nautical touch. Also, my new Baublebar necklace is a great new piece. I can picture it going with a lot of fun summer dresses. All together this look is super fun, bright, and preppy.

OOTD: Nautical Gal



The weather outside.... isn't frightful! In Ames yesterday we had a sudden change in weather which mean't I ditched the winter coat and snow boots for a much needed change in style. 

My outfit included a new purchase from the Gap factory store. I am loving this anchor sweater! Not only is it preppy but it is super classic and a great layering piece. It features navy anchors and is super adorable! It was on sale for around $25 which was a great steal for this sweater. 
I paired the sweater with a simple denim button down. It creates a fun and classic look. 

To add some color I wore a bright pair of red jeans. This adds to the overall nautical theme of the look. For accessories I wore my favorite pearl necklace and earrings. To finish the look I wore my new Sperry's that I purchased recently. 



Where it's from: 
Sweater: Gap 
Denim Button Down: Lucky Brand 
Jeans: American Eagle 
Shoes: Sperry Top Sider 
Necklace: J Crew 
Watch: Michael Kors 
Bracelets: Alex and Ani 
Vest: J Crew
