The Princess Diana Black Sheep Sweater
A while back I saw this black sheep sweater from Lands End and I instantly fell in love with it! Not only is the grey color super versatile, but it also has such a fun retro design. I know this may not make sense so let me give you a little background. Being the royal watcher that I am, previously I have seen photos of the late Princess Diana wearing a very similar black sheep sweater (like in the photo of her above). Of course, I always admired the fun sheep design of the sweater she wore! Well, Princess Diana wore that sweater back in the 80’s so naturally I…

The Two Toned Denim Trend
Something I have been noticing a lot more of recently is that two toned denim in long jeans and shorts has become something of a micro-trend. Personally, I find this micro-trend very fun and unique! This really will add a little something extra that you can mix and match both spring and summer outfits with. I recently purchased a pair of denim shorts that features this two toned denim look and I thought it would be so much fun to try with different tops and blouses. Also, you wear a pair of the trendy white cowboy boots or just a classic brown pair they will look super cute with these…

What I’m Wearing for Easter 2019
Happy Easter, everyone! This was always one of my favorite holidays growing up and even today I still love the atmosphere and purpose of getting together to celebrate with family. Unfortunately for me, the Midwestern spring weather gives me a lot of wind! Hence the wearing pants and not a dress. There will be plenty of time for dresses this summer when things warm up and the wind slows down. This blue sweater came along just in time for the Easter holiday! I found it on sale at Old Navy and it was featured in my post about the neon trend. Of course, this blue isn’t necessarily neon, but I…

The Faux Shearling Transitional Top
One of my favorite aspects of spring is not needing to wear a jacket or coat any longer. Living in the Midwest still presents the difficulty of cold mornings and warm afternoons. So, that is where the search for something that works for both weather types begins! I found this faux shearling sweatshirt by Poof! last fall, but I resisted wearing it during the bitterly cold months because it just wasn’t warm enough. However, since a jacket or coat is no longer necessary when walking around outside, this sweatshirt is just perfect to keep you both warm and cool! Another element of this top that I find endearing is how…

How to Wear the Neon Trend This Spring
Months and months ago I predicted that neon was slowly becoming one of the trendiest color schemes of fall 2018. At the time I didn’t know it, but I was also predicting one of the biggest trends of spring 2019, too! I know that pastel is typically the colors that come to mind when you think of spring fashion, but I am here to say that there is most certainly plenty of room in the colorful spring market for more bold shades. Today, I want to expand on that prediction by talking a little bit about how you can incorporate neon into your spring wardrobe. #1. Try a bright version…

The “Bee Kind” Sweatshirt & Cute Designs
Today I am here to share another fashion trend that I have noticed a lot of here lately. As you can see, this sweatshirt looks pretty ordinary except for the one little detail near my shoulder. This little stitch detailing is what sold me on this top which I found at Old Navy. Over the past several weeks I have seen a number different types of sweatshirts that have all kinds of fun details in the same spot! This is an up and coming trend for the springtime and potentially in fall 2019. Definitely keep this trend idea in mine when shopping for clothes this season. I have seen several…

How Polka Dots & Yellow are the Micro-Trends of Spring 2019
Something that I have been noticing a lot of recently is the random emergence of polka dots. They can be found in so many different places and they have become something of a kind of micro-trend. A lot of fashionable ladies have embraced the polka dots for spring 2019 trend, and I have now too! Polka dots have always been one of my favorite prints and let’s be honest, they never truly go out of style. But there are times when we see more of this pattern than other moments in fashion. Right now it is really ganging steam and it could be a trend that very well lasts into…

Valentino Fall 2019 Ready-to-Wear Collection
This collection by Valentino has reminded me of street art and graffiti from the first moment I saw it! I absolutely love the bold, artistic take with this runway. This is elevated street style, in my opinion! The red and pink colors that Valentino used in this collection are very reminiscent of what we see during Valentine’s Day celebrations which is very fitting for their name. While the deep green and white shades are more fit for the fall season it was designed to be worn in. This color palette works surprisingly well together, and makes for a really cool and somewhat edgy runway. Accessories acted as the glue that…

Giambattista Valli Fall 2019
The Giambattista Valli fall 2019 collection felt more like a collection for springtime. Pastels have traditionally been something we see in the spring not fall, however, I kind of liked seeing it appear in a different season. One of my favorite colors is pink so that was an extra bonus from this runway. Another element I loved from this collection was the involvement of of florals! There is something so dreamy about the gowns that have these floral details on them, and I think they are such a lovely mix into an otherwise leaf dominated autumn season. Something that really surprised me about the Giambattista Valli runway was the fun,…

Chanel Fall 2019 Ready-to-Wear|Farewell to Karl Lagerfeld
With the passing of the legendary designer Karl Lagerfeld, Chanel faces a whole new frontier. Lagerfeld gave us many designs to enjoy throughout his career, however, I can’t help but feel like this runway in particular will serve as a kind of endless winter inspiration for some time to come. The runway sets have always been spectacular, and Lagerfeld never disappointed those who were in attendance. But this runway perfectly sums up modern ski lodge attire. We are used to thinking of ski lodge ensembles in a retro light, but this collection really summed up a new approach. I really like how these dresses and all of the outfits were…
