The Bucket Hat Trend
Something I have noticed a whole lot of this summer are hats, particularly bucket hats. These accessories were everywhere in the 90’s, and today they are making a resurgence into fashion. We saw bucket hats make a surprising appearance on the runway with Christian Dior on their fall 2019 Ready-to-Wear collection. The way that Dior styled these classic accessories really made them so much more sophisticated and cute. I had to go find myself one after I saw the Dior runway! The bucket hat I am wearing here is from Forever 21 and it features another trend that I will be writing about in the near future. Bucket hats are…

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…

How to Style a Trench Coat for Spring
It’s no secret that trench coats are an absolute closet essential for both men and women. We often think of it as something that we should all own, but we really don’t know how to wear it. It becomes especially difficult to style in the springtime, but it doesn’t have to be! The spring season is the perfect time to break out the trench coat because of all the pretty cherry blossom trees and the in between weather. Although styling changes from season to season, the way I like to wear a trench coat (here is the EXACT trench coat I am wearing) in the spring is with bright colors!…

Secret Sequins
I understand that black is not the most cheerful spring color, but I think this quarter length top is absolutely perfect for this time of year! With all of the grass becoming a little greener and the flowers blooming, black really contrasts against these light backgrounds. Of course, black is never really a cool that goes out of style, but it is defiantly not typical for the spring season. One exciting element of this top is the two strands of black sequins that are visible on both sleeves! Really this black top is so much more fashion forward because of those two strands that I like to call secret sequins…

Met Gala & Camp Style: What It Is & How You Can Wear It
If you don’t know yet, the annual Met Gala will be held this three days. This is the biggest night for fashion! There are always a ton of outrageous looks that celebrities pull together, and some really fantastic designers get their evening to shine and experiment with different ideas. Typically, a fashion enthusiast like myself would put together a neat little list of my favorite looks and the ones I didn’t like. But I am much more interested in the theme of Met Gala than anything that will be worn. So, today I am going to talk about what the Met Gala 2019 theme is and share a few of…

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…

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. I searched high and low at all of my favorite places to go shoe shopping with no success. Thankfully, I…
