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…

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…

A Classic Neutral Look
Now that Labor Day is officially over, what should we wear instead of white? I have the perfect alternative! Grey, camel, or black are all fantastic neutrals that can replace the white you may normally wear. One really easy and simple way to pull off a neutral look is to throw on a grey t-shirt, some shorts or jeans, and black shoes. Everything about this look is timeless, you will never regret wearing a basic! That is how easy it is to put together a classic neutral ensemble like this one! To create a neutral outfit for fall or winter, wear a camel sweater with black skinny jeans and some cute…

Neon Stripes
If I had to pick a top five or ten favorite colors, neon green would be somewhere in that group! Unlike its neighboring colors, like construction worker yellow, neon green as a color steers clear of tacky and navigates more towards fun. The navy blue stripe really balance out the bright green in this top. In addition, the three little blue buttons you may notice on my shoulder are such a fun little detail to mark this as a classic addition to the wardrobe! I decided a matching pair of navy shorts from Old Navy with this ensemble. One more thing I love about this top is the quarter length…

“Kind is the New Cool” Tee
Similar to my look: T-shirt Shorts Birkenstocks Haven’t you heard? Kind is the new cool! Actually, being kind is always cool, but this t-shirt was too cute not to purchase! This inspirational, classic white tee came from a little boutique on my college campus, the University of Illinois at Urbana-Champiagn. The shop is called Fira Boutique, and I fell in love with their clothes the minute I saw the store front! It is a quant little place located a little outside of the heart of campus, but all in all it is one of my favorite shops. If you go to UIUC,…

Red, White, & Fabulous!
Similar to my look: Top Shorts This year has absolutely flown by! I can’t believe it was the fourth of July! (Yes, I did mean to rhyme) I decided to sport a tank this year with a pink/red tint to it and a unstructured peplum bottom. Coupled with cutoff, denim shorts and I was ready to roll! It was a rather hot fourth of July this year here in the Midwest, so the sleeveless look kept me as cool as a cucumber. This look works for way more than just the fourth of July, though. It would be a stunning ensemble to a picnic, family outing,…
