How to Style a White T-Shirt
For a while now I have wanting to write a blog post all about how to style a white t-shirt. I know the white t-shirt seems like a real basic and easy to achieve style, but there are so many fun ways to dress it up without it being a plain outfit. Now, we all know that a plain white t-shirt is an obvious wardrobe essential, but often times we think of it as the thing to throw on when we are not feeling like dressing up. But I want to share an easy way to dress up that casual t-shirt. My go-to dress up a white t-shirt style is…

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…

The Two-Toned Polo
I have been absolutely loving polos this summer! To me it is the perfect addition to any wardrobe because it is both classy and fun. Today I wanted to share another cute polo I will be wearing a ton this summer that reminds me so much of the gingham trend that was so popular last spring/summer. The one aspect of this polo that I am always drawn to is the two-toned style. With the collar being white and the print a nice navy blue, it really gives this polo a fun two-toned look. It really adds another pop to the overall outfit that wouldn’t be there if the collar was,…

The Making of the Flatform Trend
There are only a few times in fashion history we have seen a piece of clothing or an accessory encompass both fashionability and comfort. For instance, the classic white t-shirt, a anklets, and ballet flats are all just a few examples of timeless clothing from the past. Today, I introduce to you the a modern version of stylish and comfort — the flatform. I have been eyeing these shoes for a while now and the summer of 2019 is finally when it will get to shine! Now, I know that flatforms sounds like a funny little name, but that is because this trendy shoe is a mix of flats and…

What I Wore for Memorial Day 2019
As I get older, the holidays that mean the most to me are less about receiving gifts and more about the people you surround yourself with. Six-year-old Sarah might have told you that her favorite holiday was Christmas or even her birthday. But mature nearly twenty-year-old Sarah is much more invested in the holidays like Thanksgiving (when everyone can be together), the 4th of July, and Memorial Day when those we know or not are remembered for their dedication and sacrifice. So, I wanted to share what I wore on Memorial Day not because it is all about the fashion, but because it is about how I honored those who…

Happy to “Bee” Here
Nothing can truly beat a classic white t-shirt or polo. When you combine those two elements with a simple bee pattern, sky is the limit with how you can style it! Every summer there always seems to be some kind of animal, or in this case a insect, that acts as the fashionable symbol of the year. Well, I believe that 2019’s summer fashion symbol is the bee. I have a detailed theory as to why, but I won’t go into all of that right now and instead I will talk about all of that later. Anyway, back to this polo. I have always had a love for the buttoned…

The Underrated Style of Carolyn Bessette-Kennedy
Any woman whose mother-in-law was Jacqueline Kennedy-Onassis (I just wrote a post all about Jackie’s style too) would have been a little nervous when it came to filling in Jackie’s fashion shoes. However, Carolyn Bessette-Kennedy was a strong, opinionated lady who knew what she liked. Today, I will be focusing on the underrated style of Carolyn Bessette-Kennedy and how she changed fashion forever. Although when we think of Carolyn Bessette-Kennedy’s life we think of her untimely death, there is so much she contributed to life and fashion while she was alive. Modern street style would not be the same if it were not for Carolyn. Today, you can easily draw…

The Tie-Dye Trend
One of the more surprising trends that I have noticed this spring is one involving tie-dye. It is in so many places these days and can even be found in another spring/summer 2019 trend, the bucket hat. There are so many elements thrown together into this particular trend. For instance, the fusion of color found in the tie-dye trend are similar but a more muted version of the colors we have seen with the neon trend. Additionally, there are also many aspects of the tie-dye trend that has taken over spring fashion that contain the specific look and feel of spring. In my opinion, this just goes to show that…

How to Wear Knits in the Spring
Spring can be a rather difficult time of year to dress for, but it doesn’t have to be. I like to switch it up this time of year by wearing a short sleeved cardigan! Not all cardigans are created equally, and often times we see them being worn as a complementary piece to an outfit not one of the main staples. Just by simply switching things up and wearing a nice short sleeved cardigan as a top can really create a whole new kind of ensemble! Another element to wearing knits in the spring choosing the right color. This peachy/orange shade has so many different shades it can be worn…

What I wore to My Brother’s College Graduation
The day was finally here where my brother would graduate from the University of Illinois with his undergraduate degree. Of course, on big days like that everyone thinks about the logistics of getting people to all of the places they need to go and the work that went into my big brother graduating. However, if you are like me, your first question usually is “What will I wear?” Well, I shared a few ideas with you all not too long ago of what to wear to a spring graduation. A lot of the ideas I came up with kind of fell into the dress that I chose to wear to…
