Today was just one of those days. I drove back to Ball State University battling with the slush on the roads, but all is well in the fashion world! Being the optimistic person I am, I was determined to make my Monday wonderful, and what better way than to wear a simple, yet chic outfit.

Hello! Sorry for the week long hiatus! Spring break happened, school happened, life just happened. But, I am back on my fashion grind! Today I am wearing a hippie styled Green shirt with aqua and tan accents with my aqua Joe Jeans. I love this look because this top is so embellished with a print, that I personally think it looks better with a bold pant opposed to a dark wash jean. Lesson for the day: fashion can be anything you want, but try to keep it balanced. I am so happy I have these jeans because like I said, this outfit just looks better with pants that are as bold as the top! Plus, how fun is aqua?? (If you can’t tell, I am MORE than ready for spring!)

Did you wear and spring colors today?

Walking in the ice downpour this morning was not my idea of how to start my day, but hey, stuff happens so you have to deal with it. If anything was going to make me feel better about the weather, I knew it would be a great outfit. Today, I decided to wear a sheer floral Alic Kris top with my pink lace high waist shorts. This outfit would be great with just the shorts, but because of the ice storm today, I decided to wear some grey tights to really pull out the outline of the leaves in my top. I finished this look with my brown Madden Girl boots. This outfit is very fun and I felt confident wearing it. That is what fashion is all about. You need to learn to be yourself and feel great about it! Want to know something else about this outfit? It cost a whopping 10 dollars! T.J. Maxx is an amazing place to find deals and this is where I found both the top and shorts! Fashion is fun, and it can be affordable! Do not hold yourself back!

Did you get stuck in the ice today? (hopefully while wearing some kick-ass boots!)

Today, I decided that I really wanted to look polished and professional. I actually work on Mondays and Wednesdays after school, so what better day than a workday for this look?? I am wearing a deep purple J. Lo top from Kohls, and patterned jeans from American Eagle. The jeans have the deep purple accent so it really looked perfect with my top. I also decided to pull my hair back just for a different look. Changing your fashion style and appearance can be really fun and super easy! Do not let yourself become too comfortable to the point where you are scared to try something new. There are so many looks out there to try. This is the part of fashion that can be so fun and really help you to create an impression!

Hello! Happy Monday! Today was a little frantic but nonetheless, my outfit felt spot-on. Today, I chose to wear an outfit definitely inspired by the sixties and seventies. I wore a long, floral sheer shirt from Maurices and paired that with a knit vest also from Maurices. I wore my blue jeggings from PacSun and finished my look with a pair of dark brown oxfords. My necklace really pulls this look together and it is also my favorite piece about my outfit. My mother actually made my peace sign necklace (awesome right?) I love this necklace and it really fits perfectly for what I wore today. If I could, I would go back to the sixties/seventies for fashion. I absolutely love that style of clothing and I am so happy to see that more brands are taking notice. Vintage will always be a favorite of mine.

Which decade are you the most inspired by?

You remember the popular Field of Dreams quote, “If you build it, they will come,” well this is kind of what I was going for today, but I changed it to, “If I wear it, it will come.” I am hoping spring comes early, so I wore my bright yellow jeans and keeping my fingers crossed! Today I have on my yellow Abercrombie and Fitch jeans, an American Rag halter top from Macy’s and a white Dream Out Loud jacket. This outfit is definitely spring inspired, and I am hoping I am not the only one wishing spring would come a little sooner. In the video I am posting with Kevin Durant, he says something that is extremely true with fashion. He states, “You can tell when someone is comfortable…” This is so true. Do not try to be someone else, be yourself and your confidence will overcome anything. I hope my posts inspire you to step out of your comfort zone some, but if you do not feel comfortable in an outfit, then do not wear it.

You should be you, and you should be comfortable and confident each day!!

Considering I had four, yes four, hours of sleep last night, I decided I was going to go for a very bright look today to wake everyone, including myself, up! I wore a pair of my favorite colored/patterned pants from Kohl’s and paired that with a shirt from Forever 21 that almost matches perfectly! Even when the days seem endless, fashion is your opportunity to turn your day around or to even just make you feel better! I think this did the trick for me today because even though this has been a long day, I rocked some printed pants and received some very sweet compliments. Fashion is too fun to stay reserved, don’t you think? Battle the long days and do something for yourself that makes you happy. For me, I always feel better when I am wearing a trendy outfit, and there is no reason, that cannot work for you as well!

Today has been so beautiful that it was impossible not break out my favorite pants. Yes, you have seen these pants before, but today I styled them with a different shirt, so it’s still a completely different outfit. This will make you have so many other options and every outfit will be its own and people will recognize it. I still had compliments on this outfit today even though, I wore these pants with a different top weeks ago.

Today was the perfect day to rock my favorite sweater. Similar to the extremely popular quote floating around Pinterest that says “Keep Calm and carry on” my sweater says, “Just keep calm.” I am usually not a huge fan of wearing quotes, but this one is perfect for anyone, especially those in college because there is nothing more true about this statement. This sweater, and my black pants can be found at Forever 21. When it is warmer outside, I also like to wear this sweater with either a black skirt and tights, or even just leggings because it is long enough. I love very versatile pieces and this one is one of my favorites. Once again, this look is super simple and comfortable. If there is anything to enjoy about winter, it might as well be the wonderful winter sweaters!

Today it was all about the patterns. I felt like wearing my comfy “navajo inspired” sweater from PacSun. I love this sweater for various reasons. 1. It is super casual and extremely comfortable. 2. As easy as it is to keep it casual, it is also super easy to dress it up! (I love adding red lipstick to make the pattern really pop). Speaking of red lipstick, if you want to find the perfect make-up for your perfect outfit, check out this blog. I paired my sweater with my navy jeggings from PacSun and finished the look with favorite pair of winter boots! This look is so easy to emulate. All you need is a long comfy sweater, a cami or tank-top and jeggings or even just a pair of regular jeans. This is definitely one of my favorite fall/winter looks!
