Preppy Diaries: Floral Fun

Floral + Denim 
Lets first start off saying that I had a FABULOUS hair day this day! Maybe its because I took this picture only a little after I did my hair.... but still. It usually doesn't look this fabulous so I had to point it out. 
For this ensemble I paired a super fun floral skirt with a simple denim shirt. I wear this denim shirt all the time. You can literally wear it with anything and it is super comfortable. I like how it has a little bit of a Peter Pan collar as well. I paired my skirt and shirt with a bright neon pink belt. This adds an extra bunch of pink to the look. Then for accessories I wore my favorite Jack Rogers sandals as well as simple Kate Spade earrings and some bracelets. 




I love this floral print! It is bright without being overpowering. 



Where it's from: 
Shirt: J Crew 
Skirt: Forever 21 
Belt: American Eagle 
Shoes: Jack Rogers 
Earrings: Kate Spade 
Bracelets: Alex and Ani, Nordstrom, and Kate Spade 



With the bold printed skirt I kept my accessories super simple and minimal. Well minimal for me....

Preppy Diaries: Another Chino Look

Flower Power
This is my version of a lazy day ootd. I simply just threw on a pair of chino shorts and a flower tee. Chino shorts are my go-to summer piece. Check out my post all about them here! The purple color in my shorts is in my tee in a very subtle way so it all kind of comes together. For accessories I kept things super simple and just wore studs, bangles, and a watch. Then my sandals are just my gold Jack Rogers. 



Where it's from: 
Shirt: J Crew 
Shorts: J Crew 
Earrings: Kate Spade 
Shoes: Jack Rogers 
Watch: Michael Kors 
Bracelets: Alex and Ani 



Love this combination of jewelry! My purple stone Alex and Ani comes in handy whenever I wear purple. 



I literally wear these shoes everyday! They go with everything I own.

OOTD: Floral Stripes

The perfect pair
This outfit is the perfect pair between stripes and floral, a shirt that has both! I am loving this new tank top I recently got from J Crew. It features black and white stripes with orange and pink flowers. It's a great summer top and for $10 who can pass it up. I paired this fun tank with a simple black high low skirt. This skirt is great because it is super flowy and light. For accessories I wore a simple pair of black sandals and a neon rope necklace. I mixed up my bracelets with some gold and silver bangles to create a mixed metal look. 

I changed up my hair routine with a teased style bun. Be sure to look out for an upcoming tutorial for this hair style!

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.

OOTD: Genologie Lovin


Geneologie Lovin 
You may have seen in my other posts that I am my sororities t-shirt chair! So I am in charge of making any t-shirts for events or just for fun. The lovely company Geneologie gifted us these SUPER cute tanks for working with them on our t-shirts! Naturally, my fellow t-shirt chair and bestie wore them on the same day. 

I styled my shirt with a pair of dark wash high waisted jeans and a distressed denim button down. The shirt added an extra layer because it was a little chilly this day. For accessories I wore a bold yellow bubble necklace to accent the yellow in the coral tank. On my feet I wore a simple pair of brown flats. 

My friend Cassidy styled her look similar but wore a pair of simple black leggings and tall brown boots. Then she finished her look with a white statement necklace. 


My look: 
Tank: Geneologie 
Shirt: American Eagle 
Jeans: American Eagle 
Shoes: Steve Madden 
Necklace: Dry Goods 
Bracelets: Alex and Ani, C Wonder, and Henri Bendel 
Watch: Michael Kors 


Cassidy's look: 
Tank: Geneologie 
Shirt: Target
Leggings: Von Maur
Boots: BCBG (TJ Maxx) 
Necklace: Target

OOTD: Am I a hippe? Possibly....


Somethings I have these random moments when I feel like I am living in the 70's. It is sometimes (key word sometimes) to change up my normal J Crew preppy style for something different! In this instance I decided to be super hipster I guess. I paired my oversize green army inspired jacket with a fun floral dress. It was still a little chilly outside so I wore a pair of brown tights and brown boots. 

For accessories I wore a contrasting floral headband across my head. My friend kept making fun of me saying that my headband looked like a t-shirt wrapped around my head. But he clearly just doesn't understand the head wrap trend that I have been seeing a lot of this spring! I also wore a fringe style necklace that I have worn many times before. Then of course no outfit is complete without my bangles and watch. 

Also, in the picture I am covering my nose because I have been dying of a cold these past 12 days! So that is why I haven't been posting as much. Between 3 tests, sewing a skirt, and being sick this 2 weeks have been..... well very busy! 


Where it's from: 
Dress: Aerie
Jacket: Nordstrom 
Boots: Michael Kors 
Headband: Forever 21 
Necklace: American Eagle

Pink Peonies


Pink Peonies are Blair Waldorf's favorite flower. So, naturally I had to create some outfits inspired by them.......

Pink is a super girly and feminine color. These two looks are full of pink and floral touches. 

The first look is a little more dressy. This would be ideal for work, a nice dinner, or if you just like to dress up (aka people like me!). The button down shirt has a beautiful beaded detail which makes it unique from a plain shirt. I paired it with a floral pencil skirt which is super feminine. For accessories of course you need Kate Spade! Both the shoes and the bag are a fun pop of color and sparkle to the look. 

However, the second look is a little more casual. I paired this bold graphic print shirt with a floral scarf. There is a lot of pattern in the look but it all kind of works together. Pairing the top with a simple pair of jeans and ankle booties makes it a super casual and easy look. Add a bold pink lip to brighten up the look in addition to a hot pink satchel! I have seen this satchel a lot in the blogging world and it is adorable! This look is less feminine then the other put it is still super fun and bright. I think there is always a way to incorporate pink into a look no matter what your style is. From light blush pink to a dark deep pink there is a shade for everyone!

Disney Week: Alice and Wonderland


Day 2: Alice and Wonderland 

Alice and Wonderland is such a whimsical movie. Here is a funny picture I found with a floral crown. Who knew the cat would predict such a fashion trend. 

This look was inspired by this picture and the overall feel of the movie. I wanted something that was whimsical, fun, and floral. 

I paired a striped basic top with just a simple pair of jeans. With a bold and colorful necklace it gives the look a fun touch. Then a simple flower crown to add to your hair look to add an extra touch. Pair your ensemble with a pair of ballet flats (like Alice's in the movie!) and a fun floral bag. 

Overall, Alice and Wonderland is a crazy and out there movie. So, mixing patterns and colors is a great way to draw inspiration from the movie.
