OOTD: Aqua Maxi

Deep in blue
Recently I have been wearing this aqua color a lot. I'm not sure why but I seem to be gravitating towards it! This OOTD features a aqua sheer maxi skirt paired with a simple striped crop top. I love this look because it is more simple then what I normally wear. It was a great outfit for grabbing some breakfast with a friend. For accessories I kept it pretty simple and just wore a pair of statement earrings from Baublebar. I have gotten a lot of use out of these earrings! They are great because they are black, grey, and white so they go with a lot of looks. Not to mention they are pretty neutral so I wear them a lot. For my other accessories I kept it with my everyday bangles and watch. My bag is a recent purchase that I did a post on! My shoes are simple sandals that have both gold and silver. These are my go-to sandal and they are super comfortable. They are from Target and might I say Target makes a great sandal! I always get mine on super clearance for around $7-$9.

OOTD: Edgier then usual....

A not so preppy look
For this look I decided to mix it up from my usual preppy get up to something with a little more edge. I paired a distressed denim shirt with a black burnout skirt. The skirt has a fun ruffle on the bottom which keeps the look still girly enough. For accessories I wore a fun statement necklace (as usual), a jelly chain bracelet, and a pair of fun strappy sandals. I kept my lipstick a dark red color to go along with the overall darker look. Might I add I was having a great hair day! Using a curling wand I made light wavy curls in my hair. 






Where it's from: 
Shirt: American Eagle 
Skirt: Urban Outfitters 
Necklace: C Wonder 
Black bracelet: Marc by Marc Jacobs 
Watch and bangles: Alex and Ani & Michael Kors 
Shoes: Target 




These shoes were such a steal! Got them on clearance at Target for around $7! Target is the place to get super cheap and cute sandals.

OOTD: Inner Hippie

Alter ego? 
Sometimes I like to mix up my style from my normal preppy looks and do something a little more edgy or boho. This outfit is one of those days! I got this super cute maroon tulle dress at a boutique in Iowa when I was visiting my friend. It is super fun and playful and can be styled in a lot of different ways. For this look I decided to keep it more edgy. To keep myself warm I layered the dress with an embroidered denim button down. It has a slight tribal pattern which gives the look a little edge. To make it seem not so oversized I tied the sides up into little nots. I love doing this because it keeps the shirt out of your way and makes it a little more girly. For jewelry I layered a short necklace and a very long chain. The chain has jewels that range in colors then the short necklace is a single spike dagger situation. For shoes I simply wore a pair of gold and silver sandals from Target. 

However, my hair is what really makes the look a little more not myself! I decided to try and mix up the normal messy bun that morning. So, I made two pigtails super close to each other on the top of my head. Then I teased both pig tails then wrapped the hair around the elastic band to create two textured buns. I slightly pushed them together to create a kind of combined bun look. At first I didn't know how it would turn out but it actually looks super cute, messy, and playful. Normally I am a very slick sleek bun, mainly because I danced for 14 years (I have to have everything neat!), so this was definitely a change for my hair!

OOTD: New Baubles


On this lovely warm day of spring I had an interview for my universities fashion magazine Trend. I am happy to announce that I am the new Accessories Director for the fall 2014 issue! This is a huge opportunity and I cannot wait to think of a concept and start planning my fall shoot. 

So, now for the outfit. I wore a super fun tulle skirt with a simple black tank. I recently picked up this skirt form a local boutique when I was in the Davenport area for Easter. The skirt is super comfy and not to mention super fun! Who doesn't love a midi tulle skirt? Very Sarah Jessica Parker inspired. For accessories I wore another recent purchase of mine, new bauble bar dangle earrings. These earrings were only $10 from their huge sale they recently had. I am basically obsessed with them! They are a great neutral earring that I think I will be able to wear a lot. I also accessorized with a fun BCBG bracelet and a gold skinny belt along with my typical everyday jewelry picks.

OOTD: Warmer Weather


The weather is starting to warm up! Which means no tights, lighter jackets, and less layers. So, last week I took advantage of the warm weather with an outfit appropriate for the spring sun. I paired a simple denim button down with a flowy floral skirt. I accented the colors in the skirt with my fun statement necklace. For shoes I wore my favorite pair of camel brown booties from Target. I wore a fun pair of gold sparkle socks to accent the gold in the skirt. Overall, I cannot wait for more warm days and more outfits with less bulk!

OOTD: Vintage Dots



Today's outfit features one of my recent purchases a pink polka dot blouse. It's super cute and was on clearance for only $9! I paired the top with my favorite pair of Topshop shorts. To keep my legs warm I put on a pair of black tights. 

Accessories for the look included a big chunky statement necklace that accents the black and pink in the shirt. Also, I wore my favorite Hunter rain boots so I can dodge the giant puddles on campus. 

Overall, the look is super vintage and cute. I love how polka dots mix with the pattern in the shorts. It creates a nice look as a whole.

OOTD: Thanksgiving Dinner


Thanksgiving is a great holiday, except when you get your wisdom teeth out the week of and you can't eat! In regardless to my empty stomach Thanksgiving break was a very relaxing and lazy week. 

For my outfit I paired one of my favorite striped dresses from Forever 21 with a pair of maroon tights and black flats. The outfit is quite simple but the oversize gold necklace adds a little more interest to the outfit. But, this dress is great for Thanksgiving because it flows away from the body (a.k.a hides the food babies!). 

Where it's from: 
Dress: Forever 21
Tights: Target 
Shoes: Sam Eldeman 
Necklace: H&M 
Earrings: Nordstrom 
Bracelets: Alex and Ani, Brighton, J Crew, and BCBG 



This statement necklace is super bold. For only $5 on sale at H&M I picked this up a while ago. However, it goes with practically everything!



Arm candy is a given detail to any great outfit. For this look I doubled up having both wrists with something. 




These maroon tights are surprisingly very versatile. They go great with this dress and bring more maroon to the outfit. I got these tights from Target so long ago and haven't worn them much till now. I knew they would come in handy eventually!


{Excuse my puffy cheeks I got my wisdom teeth out on Monday so I was still swollen!}
I styled my hair in curls, of course, and pulled back one side. My hair was super long and the day after I got a much needed hair cut.

OOTD: Bleached Beauty

September 10th, 2013: 

The Outfit: Today's outfit I kept super simple. It is still in the 90s in Ames which I am totally not used to. So, I just wore this super fun bleached denim dress with great accessories. The look is very simple but still cute and a little bit edgy. My favorite part about this dress is the amazing pockets because lets be honest, every girl loves a dress with pockets. I paired the dress with a statement necklace with black and silver details. Also, it has a super cute bow in the center. 


Where it's from: 
Dress: American Eagle 
Necklace: Akira 
Wedges: Target 
Sunnies: Charming Charlies
