Preppy Diaries: Floral Fun


The normal college student would dress down for finals week. But, I believe in the "look good feel good philosophy". If I'm in a dress or skirt maybe I will be less likely to fall asleep in my 7:30 am final.... actually I probably would still fall asleep. However, I would be dressed up and cute doing it! 

This look incorporates one of my favorite pieces in my wardrobe right now. It is a tank skirt from J Crew. This skirt literally matches everything and it is super comfortable and practical. I paired it with a linen J Crew tee with a fun floral print on it. To accent the floral print I wore a bold flower statement necklace. It adds a bunch of color along with some texture. To keep myself warm I wore a green cargo jacket. This is one of my go-to pieces if I need a light jacket for the spring weather. Other accessories I wore include Kate Spade bow earrings and my favorite pair of Sperry's.

Winter to Spring

Is it winter or spring? I'm not sure.... 


In between winter and spring there is that awkward time when you have no idea what to wear. I feel your pain I really do. So here are some outfit ideas to help you get through this weird time of the year. 

Your best friend during this time is layering. If you have a few layers on you can stay warm in the morning when it is colder then you can take them off when it is warmer in the afternoon. 

A go to outfit you can use is a pair of fun colored jeans and a denim top. This is a great alternative to just throwing on some yogas. You can role up your sleeves or even cuff your jeans if you are feeling a little hot. But throw on a cardigan or a vest if you a little chilly. Pair your jeans a shirt with a fun pair of dangle earrings and some patterned sneakers (Keds are my go-to sneakers). 

Another outfit idea is a fun floral dress and a oversize cargo jacket. This way you can wear your new floral dress you have been dying to wear but you won't freeze in the process. Pair your dress with a pair of neutral ankle booties to complete the look. For final touches add some Alex and Ani bangles for a boho vibe. 

Hope these outfit ideas helped you!
