Sew Cute

For a cold fall day I decided to bust out my favorite J Crew pants. This pant is called the Skimmer pant and I am in love! I have a few prints and they are great to dress up or down. They are a more mature piece but I like how they have bold and fun prints. I paired my printed pants with a classic blue oxford. An unexpected color combination I would say but it turned out great! 

For an extra pop of color I added a few neon accessories. This included a pair of statement earrings, a bold belt, and a fun silicon Marc by Marc Jacobs bracelet. Then for shoes I kept things simple with a camel colored bootie. These booties are super comfortable and I can last all day in them. Surprisingly I got them from Target for only around $9 a few seasons ago! 

My arm candy of the day. I can't go a day without my Alex and Ani bracelets. My go-to ones currently are my Pi Beta Phi bangle and my daughter bangle. Also, my Henri Bendel watch is my favorite of the moment.

Casual Chic 

Since school has started I have been trying to find new ways to be comfortable yet chic! So, for this first week look I wore this fun graphic sweatshirt with a simple navy skirt. I love the idea of dressing up a super casual piece like a sweatshirt. It gives me an element of comfort but I'm still cute and put together for class. I accessorized with bright pink accessories including a bold statement earrings, casual sneakers, and a bright belt.

Neon kick 

Recently I have been wearing a lot of neon! I don't know if it is because it is summer or all of a sudden I am into bright colors but I am kind of liking it. I am also liking this super girly and preppy ensemble that I wore this lovely day. For my shorts I picked a bright neon pink chino short and paired it with a simple white shell top. The top is super cute because it has three bows that go down the front which gives it an extra girly touch. To tie in the pink color I wore a pair of bold statement earrings that have pinks and purple shades in the stones. I kept my shoes comfortable because this day I drove down to my friends house in Bettendorf for the weekend. So I wanted to stay comfortable in the car. In this look I am also wearing my go-to sunglasses that I always keep on my Lilly Pulitzer croakies. Litearlly sunglass straps are the best invention because you can just keep them around your neck and they are perfect for if you going in and out of places. Not to mention they come in cute patterns! I completed the look with my usual watch and bracelets of course.

Bright and BOLD

Day two of my internship called for a professional look. More and more I am gravitating towards chino pants. For a more professional look I paired my black and white polka dot pants with a crisp button down. But, work clothes don't have to be boring! So, I wore a bright neon button down to spice up the look. For accessories I wore a pair of bold statement earrings to add color and of course sparkle to the look. Since I had such big earrings I opted to skip out on a big statement necklace. For shoes I need something comfortable to walk in because I walk to my internship from the train. So, I turned to my trusty Sperrys for the job.
