A 60s Inspired Dress with a Modern Twist
There are so many different decades and time eras that inspire me when it comes to fashion, and one of those decades is the 60s! Although there are a variety of sources I take inspiration from, the 60s is one I never get tired of. However, this dress in particular is one that has some unique twists that make it distinctly a modern piece. A few of the designs that makes this dress a modern, 60s classic are the halter top, the silhouette of the dress, and the bold yet tasteful floral print. The print featured on this dress is not your grandmother’s couch design (although we do all love…

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 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.

Floral Stan Smith Sneakers
If you follow me on Instagram, you saw me unbox these cool sneakers and promise that I would write a blog post about them. (If you don’t follow me in Instagram, be sure to check out my profile at @sarahgsigmon) Since I am a woman of my word, here is the post that I promised! For a while now I have been looking for a cute new pair of sneakers. Now, as you probably already know, I have very specific taste so this presents a little bit of a challenge.

Embroidered Floral Details for Spring 2019
One of the consistencies I have seen on all of the runways for fall 2019 has been a mix of several different prints. Some of those prints are of the floral variety while also including the occasional embroidery detail. Therefore, I began thinking now would be the perfect time to breakout this pastel embroidered sweater! Since the official beginning of spring is right around the corner and coats will no longer be necessary, there is no better time to show off these cute little flowers! Embroidery has swept across the fashion industry for the past couple of seasons, and floral has made a real comeback too. Spring is the perfect…

Erdem Spring/Summer 2019
London Fashion Week is officially in full swing! One of my favorite runways every year is the Erdem fashion show. This show always brings together all of my favorite aspects of fashion: modernity, nostalgia, and simplicity. Let’s have a closer look at this year’s collection shall we… Photos by Vogue From the moment I saw the first pieces of this collection, they not only caught my eye but also my imagination. The sun hats, structured shoulders, and un-obnoxious floral prints all playfully work together to create a memorable collection. The use of accessories, as we saw at New York Fashion Week, once again reign supreme on the London runways. Even…

40’s Inspired Top
If there is anything I love as much as watching a classic film, it’s wearing clothes inspired by the silver screen era! I found this chic floral top in the clearance section at Kohl’s for only $9! Just seeing the fluttering cap sleeves and feeling the lightweight material gave me vintage vibes. When I tried this top on, I was immediately taken back to a different time! My favorite touch in this top is the delicate, feminine sleeves. For a while now I have felt the pulse of an older yet somehow modernized style trying to surge back into fashion. Maybe we will have a little taste of The Great…

The Summer Floral Trend
Photos taken by Darla Sigmon (@mcsig96 on Instagram) I have never been much of a print girl, but this summer it would seem I am wearing lot more of at least one print. Normally, I like a solid color top with some denim shorts or something else simple and classic, but the floral trend bug has bitten me. Florals are HUGE this summer! You really cannot go shopping without seeing at least one flower on some sort of piece of clothing! The floral trend is so different than most other prints. Every summer it seems like there is at least one kind of print that takes over, but with florals…
