Monday Blues

Somehow it's Monday again, and I am still desperately wishing I was back on vacation. My desire to be comfortable and relax is definitely being channeled in today's outfit. 

Some light track pants, a baggy white tee, and a denim button down paired with a statement necklace and strappy heels make for the perfect balance of comfortable and stylish.

Harem Pants & Turquoise Accents

Uniqlo heat tech shirt, bebe harem pants - similar here, flatform sandals - similar here and here,  turquoise bracelet and necklace gifted from grandfather

Happy Tuesday!

Today's look is built around these harem pants, I love the funky print with shades of purple. When it comes to more flowy/baggy pants like this I like to balance the look with a more fitted top. Since the weather is still cold I paired it with this simple black long sleeve top from Uniqlo. I love wearing these pants with flatform sandals, especially these super strappy ones I got from DSW awhile back. To complete the look I added some turquoise accents with this bracelet and necklace that belonged to my grandfather. 

Hope you like the look, and thanks for reading!!

Little Black Dress

bebe faux leather jacket, bebe knit dress, uniqlo tights, H&M cheetah print heels - seen here, bebe watch

Hello hello! I hope you're all doing well! This week's post is inspired by the little black dress. I actually wore this look both to work and an alumni dinner that I had last week (I got to see all of my amazing brothers from Delta Sigma Pi Rho Tau Chapter!!) Little black dresses are great for all occasions and can be dressed up and down to suit your needs. In this instance I took a sleeveless knit dress and paired it with a faux leather jacket. This jacket is light enough to wear indoors and slip under a thick coat without you having to worry about getting hot and having to carry it around halfway through the night. I love the detail in this jacket, it has a mock neck along with a geometric mesh inset (you can get a really good look at it in the first photo). I added a pair of tights to keep me warm, but I chose an opaque pair because I didn't want to be dressed in solid black from head to toe. I added some detail into this look with the accessories: I wore my cheetah print heels from H&M as well as my gold watch from bebe because the colors really pop against the black without being too overwhelming.

I hope you liked this post! Tell me all about your favorite little black dress and how you like to wear it in the comments below!!

Happy Thanksgiving!

Uniqlo Heat Tech shirt, bebe maxi skirt, bebe mesh spike statement necklace - similar here, h&m swallow stretch belt - similar here

Hello and happy Black Friday!! Today's post details what I wore for Thanksgiving dinner yesterday :) 

When I think of Thanksgiving, I think of autumn leaves and all of the beautiful colors of the season and this skirt was the first piece that came to mind. I am in love with maxi skirts, they are beyond comfortable, easy to wear, and they dress up any outfit. I paired it with one of Uniqlo's heat tech shirts, so warm and comfortable. The technology is truly amazing and will help keep you warm on even the coldest of winter nights. To make the look more cohesive I wore my h&m swallow stretch belt and completed the look with my mesh and spike necklace from bebe. I love the necklace because it's unique in design and is both silver and gold so it goes with all of my jewelry.

While this is the season to dress up for family get togethers, it is the time spent with loved ones that truly makes this time of year special. Treasure the moments you spend with friends and family, even beyond the holiday season so that you have memories for a lifetime :)

Styling Sweats: Loungewear Done Right

H&M blazer, bebe top, Uniqlo sweatpants, vintage necklace, Call It Spring shoes - also seen here

Hello all! My apologies for being MIA this past week, but I'm back and ready to blog! Today's outfit post is a quick going out look I threw together that'll keep you warmer during these cooler months. You might be questioning my use of the term "warmer" since I'm shamelessly wearing a crop top, but believe it or not this outfit does exactly that. These lounge pants from Uniqlo, while light, definitely keep my legs nice and toasty and despite the length of the crop top, it's made from a knit so it's basically a mini sweater. To add some structure to this look, I paired my white H&M blazer. ;I completed the look with my basic black booties and a vintage necklace that belonged to my grandmother.

I hope you like the look! Tell me all about how you stay warm and chic during these winter months in the comments below! As always, thanks for reading!!
