The Perfect Mid-July Dress
One way to beat the heat in the summertime is to wear something comfortable, and one item in my summer wardrobe that always keeps me relaxed is a good summer dress! Nothing looks more like you tried really hard to dress up than a dress, but the beauty in this outfit is dresses are so easy you don’t even have to put on pants! The dress I am wearing here is what I would describe as the perfect mid-July dress. Not only are the colors perfect for a 4th of July celebration, but it also fits within the bright colors that are typically found this time of year. Personally I…

The Floral & Lace T-Shirt
Is there anything cuter or more effortless for summer fashion than throwing on a t-shirt? One of my favorite go-to summer styles is a t-shirt and shorts. Well, every once in a while you gotta have a statement t-shirt to spruce things up, and that is exactly what I have today! Floral is an absolute summer and spring staple for any wardrobe, while lace is a lot of the time left for special occasions. With this t-shirt I am combining both of these styles to create something typical, yet timeless and elegant. The lace trim is one of my favorites aspects of this t-shirt because it is just to unique…

The Exposed Buttons Trend
For a while now I have been seeing a ton of buttons! By that I mean when you go shopping there are a lot of cute pairs of shorts and jeans that are taking part in the exposed buttons trend. This trend has gained some traction during the summer, but I am seeing it as more of a fall and winter trend. The exposed buttons trend is one to keep an eye out for during the upcoming fall season, but if you are like me and you cannot wait that long there are a bunch of really cute shorts that have these buttons. Old Navy has a great selection to…

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…

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…

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…

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…
