Hello everyone! So, I have two exciting things to share with you all. First things first I started a Youtube channel! I have done Youtube videos in the past with a friend but we never really stuck with it. But, I wanted to enhance my blog posts and content so I decided to try it out again. My first video I have for you is my Golden Birthday Haul! Please be sure to watch the video, comment, and subscribe. It would be the world to me if you did!

Crazy about cork

Classic and cute 
Recently I have been loving cork! It's kind of random but this season it is everywhere it seems. Basically it started when I saw these super cute C Wonder flats (the tangerine ones below!) at a flash sale and I have been obsessed since. The Jack Rogers sandals are also a huge favorite of mine. But, enjoy some of my favorite cork picks.

Preppy Tag!

What's your definition of preppy?
My definition of preppy is anything that is girly or southern inspired. Being from the midwest I have never been exposed to hardcore preppy girls. But recently, my style has been evolving into more of a preppy style. I think being preppy means you like to wear fun and bright pieces. At the same time preppy style incorporates a lot of classics like pearls and simple silhouettes. 

What's your all time favorite brand?  
My all time favorite brand would have to be J Crew. If you look through my ootd posts you can see almost everything I wear is form J Crew. It is such a great brand because it has classic things mixed with really fun and colorful pieces. Basically it has been my obsession for a while so for sure I would say J Crew! For accessories and purses Kate Spade is my go-to brand. Almost all of my purses and jewelry are from there. I love Kate Spade for cute and girly pieces. 

What is your favorite Lilly print?
My favorite Lilly Pulitzer print is the mint print or the mint julep drink print! I think it is so cute and I love the colors! 

Favorite preppy YouTuber? 
By far my favorite YouTuber is Sarahbelle93x. I used to be HUGE into watching Youtube beauty gurus, but now I don't watch them as often. But, I still watch Sarahbelle religiously because she is basically perfect! 

Jack Rogers or Sperrys? 
I can't choose! But I have an insane amount of Sperrys so I would have to choose Sperrys. However, I think Jack Rogers are the perfect shoe for summer/ spring. 

Jeans or Khakis?
Jeans for sure! I have one pair of khakis and the last time I wore them I got confused for a Target employee.... so I think I will stick with jeans! 

Duck Boots, Riding Boots or Hunters?
Riding or Hunters for sure. I love my Hunter rain boots because my campus is bipolar and it always changing weather. Hunters are great for the snow and rain so they are very versatile. But, I love my pair of Michael Kors brown riding boots. In the fall and winter I wear them basically everyday. So riding boots and Hunters are for sure tied. 

Navy or Black?
Personally I am more of a black then navy person. But, I for sure like brown the best! Usually I wear more brown and black then navy. However, I am starting to get more navy pieces so who knows I might change my preferences :).

On a scale of 1-10 how much do you love J.Crew?
This scale does not describe my love for J Crew! I listed it as my favorite brand earlier so I think that explains it all. 

Favorite Ralph Lauren clothing item?
Ralph Lauren button downs are a major basic piece for me. I have a white and a blue one and I wear them all the time. They are great to pair with more patterned pieces or with bold jewelry. If you don't have at least one you need to invest in one! 

Pearls or bows?
For sure pearls. I wear a pearl necklace, earrings, or a bracelet basically every day! I love the classic look that pearls has. Also, they go with everything because they are so neutral.

Nordstrom Semi-Annual Sale!

NORDSTROM SALE OMG! 
It's that time of the year! Nordstrom is having a great sale right now and I can't wait to shop the sale. I plan on going tomorrow so I will most likely have a blog haul up from the sale soon! I'm also going going to the outlet mall today and I know J Crew has 50%! It seems a lot of stores are having sales right now and it is not good for the wallet. But, I won't complain about great prices for great clothes! 

So, what am I looking for at the Nordstrom sale? Well I'm not sure whatever is cute! But, here are some of my top picks that I found while "pre-shopping" on their website! 

My Picks: 



I am DYING for a pair of Jack Rogers. I love these navy and red jelly pair. They would be great for all of my nautical and striped pieces that I already own. Recently I have had an obsession with cork... not sure why but it is everywhere this season! So, these cork Jack Rogers would be a perfect addition to my shoe collection. 


I already have a pair of Hunter boots and I am in love with them! It would be great to have another pair so I can switch it up every once in a while. If you already have a pair they have some welly socks on sale that you should take advantage of! Normally they don't go on sale so this is an opportunity you have to snatch up. 

As you all may know I am obsessed with Kate Spade! So naturally I had to put some Kate Spade pieces in my favorites. I am loving this super cute Italian theme phone case along with these striped Keds. Keds are one of my go-to shoes in the summer because you can walk anywhere in them! Also, they are the most adorable sneaker in town. 



 
Two more Kate Spade items include these yellow earrings and this fun bow necklace. Both would be great summer and all year round accessories! 




The last thing on my list is this super cool Marc Jacobs watch! It's silver and has rose gold coral writing on the face. The cool thing about this watch is that the face is see through so it is super unique! 

Those are all of my favorites from the Nordstrom sale! Be on the lookout for a blog haul very soon! 
XOXO

Summer Staples


~Summer Essentials~
Summer is right around the corner, or you are already on summer break! So, what are the thinks I can't live without in the summertime? 
  • Statement necklace: The question is when isn't a statement necklace a must have piece for me? However, in the summer there are super fun and bold necklaces you can wear to spice up your outfit. The brighter the better! J Crew necklaces are a specific must have for me. They are both colorful and fun but also are great quality. To find a cheap J Crew necklace I suggest finding a J Crew outlet! 
  • Laptop: My laptop is another thing I cannot live without. Every girl has those summer nights when all they want to do is watch Netflix all day! Also, I have to keep up with all of my social media sites of course. But, another reason this is my must have is I will be taking both economics and a math course over the summer online. So, obviously I need my trusty laptop to complete my courses! 
  • McDonalds Diet Coke: Diet Coke is basically my life. Nothing hits the spot like an ice cold McDonalds Diet Coke on a hot summer day. 
  • Denim shirt: A denim shirt is a great layering piece when it gets chilly at night. Or if it is a colder summer day simply pair it with a pair of fun bright colored jeans or shorts. 
  • Powder: No one likes a shiny face during the summer time. My Maybelline powder will be my best friend this summer as I take on the hot Chicago heat. 
  • Kate Spade phone case: A fun phone case is one of my favorite accessories! Some of my favorites are all from Kate Spade of course. 
  • Alex and Ani bangle: These bangles are perfect for stacking in the summer time. Pair them with your fun "friendship" style bracelets for a fun eclectic look.  
  • High waisted shorts: My go-to shorts in the summer are almost all high waisted. American Eagle's festival short is my favorite denim pair! 
  • Kate Spade tote: I have two Kate Spade totes, one small and one larger, and they are my go-to bags in the summer. They are great for keeping all of your essentials in. Also, they are big enough to put a light jacket in incase you get cold white dinning or shopping! (I always get cold in air-conditioned places! Am I the only one?)
  • Sperrys: Sperry Topsiders are the perfect summer shoe. They are comfortable to walk in all day but are still super stylish and cute. 
  • Baby lips: Chapped lips is a huge no no. I rely on Baby Lips to keep my nice and soft. Also, they have fun tinted shades that will give your lips a dash of color. 
  • Jack Rogers: I'm hoping to get a pair of Jack Rogers for my birthday! The gold ones will go with everything I wear. Not to mention they are adorably cute and very preppy. 
  • Body spritz: I am not a big perfume person so I usually turn to a easy body mist to keep myself smelling yummy in the summer time! 
  • Bronzer: I am not the tannest person in the world. But, I use Estee Lauder bronzer to keep my skin looking tan and golden. 
~Happy Summer~
