What I Wore for the 4th of July 2019
It was a very eventful 4th of July for my family and I! More on what we did all day will be coming later this week, but today I am sharing what I wore for this very special holiday. I have been loving button up tank tops this summer and this style came in especially handy since the 4th of July was extraordinarily hot the year. This festive button up tank top was a lucky find from Kohl’s. I love how subtle the star print is on this blouse, and the shade of blue is very perfect for this particular patriotic holiday. To style this outfit I worn a classic…

Celine Spring 2020 for Men
I must admit, I was rather disappointed by the runways we saw for this spring 2020 men’s fashion week. After combing through all of the designer shows and seeing how they all look basically the same, there were only two specific runways that stood out to me enough to actually review. Celine is one of those two fashion shows that I have decided to write a Runway Review about! What stood out to me in this spring collection was the perfect mix of business and casual wear. If you look at the entire spring 2020 line up of men’s fashion, you will notice that pretty much every designer featured a…

A Classic Embroidered Button Up
Nothing says summer more than a classic knotted button up! Recently I noticed how little of this one clothing item I had in my closet and decided to remedy the problem with a trip to Kohl’s. While doing a little light shopping I found this embroidered button up that I thought would be just perfect to add the summer wardrobe! What was a huge selling point for this button up was the light patterning of embroidered flowers all around it. I really love the mix of sophistication and casual that comes with wearing a knotted button up in the summer. Especially when that button up has some embroidery on it!…

City Chic Audrey Hepburn Style
I know it may seem crazy depending on where you live and what the weather is like there, but lately here in the Midwest it has been a bit on the chilly side! Especially in the Windy City (A.K.A. Chicago) where I have recently spent a bit of time helping my brother move to. Although we have been busy lifting heavy boxes, it is never a bad idea to dress up for a day on the town! Recently, I shared how I like to style a trench coat in the springtime but today I am sharing another way to style a classic camel trench coat. Matter of fact, this entire…

Green with Envy
One of the freshest shades of the summertime season has appeared to be green. This color surrounds us in nature in the summertime, but that won’t stop me from letting it take over a small corner of my summer wardrobe. Green has been popping up everywhere in summer fashion lately. It feels like so many different styles are incorporating differing shades of green to liven things up and I am loving it! After finding this green striped top at Kohl’s, I know it would be the perfect addition to my summer closet and it would play well with a lot of different accessories. Instead of going with a pair of…

The Must Have Shoes of Summer 2019!
If you are looking for a fun way to spice up your shoe closet this summer, platform heels are the way to go! Now, I know this seems scary. Platforms are rather intimidating to look at and think about walking in, but they are surprisingly sturdy. I have several pairs of platform heels and I have worn them several times before now, but I am thankful to see these shoes having the spotlight yet again. It may seem like a bit of a retro suggestion, but platforms have quickly become the shoe essential of summer 2019. There are so many different types of platforms out there with unique details that…

Designers That Changed Fashion: Edith Head
Today I am starting an exciting new series that I am calling “Designers That Changed Fashion”! This new series will featured and is dedicated too designers that I feel have fundamentally changed the fashion industry forever. Today I wanted to start off with a designer that seems to be forgotten all too often. Edith Head was a fashion forward, sophisticated designer whose vision for the looks she was trying to create has gone down in history. Best known for her Old Hollywood costumes, Edith Head was always able to create a feeling and atmosphere that surrounded each character she dressed. Something I have picked up on after watching several films…

Let it Bee
As promised from my Look Book post about the Happy to “Bee” Here polo, I want to share a more in depth post about the bee symbol that seems to be everywhere in fashion. Bees are the symbol of the year! This happy little symbol is a reminder of fancier and happier things. As you can see, it is being used to inspire people to “bee” kind. I personally think this is such an adorable little symbol for the summer of 2019 and for the fashion that will be coming our way this year. High fashion is really what caused the happy little bumble bee to take over the fashion…
