Back To School, Madewell Edition.

madewell

August is coming to a close which can only mean one thing, school is almost back in session. School was never really about getting caught up on summer readings or trying to get ahead in my classes..no it was about something way more important, shopping. For some reason when I picture going back to school I just imagine myself trying on new fun pieces and stocking up on pens and planners I will only use the first few weeks. It is no surprise that Madewell is my choice for your back to school wardrobe must haves, I just love all things Madewell.

Even though school is starting, the heat is not ending so when you are buying those classroom clothes don’t skip out on shorts and breezy tops. You want to also make sure you are buying pieces that will transition into fall easily, the loose fitting shorts above would be adorable with black tights and boots! And lastly have fun when buying accessories, no one said you needed a North Face backpack like everyone else this year.

Shop these looks:

Madewell is one of my favorite stores for comfortable and cute clothes, and the prices are great too! My favorite pieces are the pink short sleeve pull over sweater and the striped shorts, naturally I want to wear them together! Did you know that Madewell and Keds teamed up to create some super cute tennis shoes for Spring? Well I am obsessed with the multi-colored striped pair above! So whether you wear shorts or dresses Madewell has you covered for spring.

Happy Shopping!

Hue Wonderful

 

 

historic hues

Some of my favorite hues are those that are rich with history and full of vibrant details. Combining colors such as oranges and yellows with neutrals like grey and beige is the perfect way to stand out and look fashion forward. I understand that not everyone wants to wear a bright yellow jacket or red pants but even adding the slightest touch of these hues will make any outfit transform. The Kendra Scott jewelry I have selected is screaming with rich tones that will complete any look, I especially love the green Sarah cuff! Don’t be afraid to go outside of your comfort zone when buying these colors, they look good on almost anyone when worn correctly. So go out and add a little spice to your life!
Happy Shopping!

want list

 

 


My Current Want List is full of rich hues and bold statements..needless to say I have an outgoing fashion personality. The bold printed JCrew Pants and the amazing Burberry Prorsum dress are definitely a must for Spring. You can find wallet friendly versions of these at ASOS.COM, ZARA.COM, and HM.US
I am really into camera bag purses right now, they seem to be popping up everywhere! I love that they have a slouchy yet classic look and have a million compartments for all of your bag secrets! The Alexander Wang royal blue one above is something I am desperately coveting, however if you think you would like a more traditional style check out local vintage shops! By the looks of this want list I am going to need to put in extra hours at work ha!
Tell me what your current want list consists of, I would love to hear what you are all drooling over!
Happy Shopping!

WHAT TO WEAR: SUMMER CONCERTS

SUMMER TIME IS FOR LAYING OUT BY THE POOL, DRINKING MARGARITAS ON A BOAT, AND ENJOYING SUMMER CONCERTS AND FESTIVALS. I’VE BEEN ASKED ON SEVERAL OCCASIONS WHAT TO WEAR TO SUMMER CONCERTS, AND THERE ARE 3 THINGS TO THINK ABOUT WHEN HITTING UP THE CONCERT SCENE:

1) WHAT TYPE OF CONCERT ARE YOU GOING TO? IS IT A OUTDOOR FESTIVAL, SMALL INTIMATE SHOW, OR A STADIUM FILLED WITH FANS?

2) WILL YOU BE STANDING, SITTING, DANCING, OR DRINKING?

3) THIS IS VERY IMPORTANT: THINK ABOUT YOUR AGE LADIES! ITS NOT HARD TO DRESS TRENDY AND STYLISH, YOU DONT HAVE TO DIG THROUGH YOUR DAUGHTER’S CLOSET.

 

HERE ARE SOME IDEAS FOR STYLING YOUR CONCERT LOOKS USING MY 3 RULES ABOVE:

*OUTDOOR FESTIVAL: THE MOST IMPORTANT THING WHEN GETTING READY FOR AN OUTDOOR ALL WEEKEND EVENT IS COMFORTABLE SHOES! PAIR THEM WITH SHORTS AND A LOOSE FITTING TOP OR A SUN DRESS. HERE ARE SOME STYLES I LOVE FOR CONCERTS:

                                                                                                     

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

SUMMER OUTDOOR FESTIVAL GOLD! JUST BE COMFORTABLE FOR THINGS LIKE THIS, THE LAST THING YOU WANT IS TO BE IN TIGHT FITTING CLOTHES.
