Neon for Fall 2018
Did someone say neon? The future of fashion is everything neon! We saw so much of this on the runways earlier this spring, but now it is taking over the fall’s trendiest pieces! There are many elements from the 80’s that are back in style, but they each one deserves its own article. Today I am discussing the way you can incorporate a touch of neon into your wardrobe! For the men, you can wear a cool, crisp tee that has neon lettering. Want to go all in on this trend? Wear a brightly color solid shirt! A basic, neon t-shirt will catch the eye and keep you in style…

The Prettiest Little White Dress
Nothing is more of a closet essential than a good white dress. The little white dress can be so versatile, the dress up and dress down options are endless! For me, I love a white dress with a classic pair of cowgirl boots. Of course, you can also wear a dress like this one with sneakers and a denim jacket, too! What stood out to me about this particular white dress is the overlaying and softness! The material feels so lightweight it is perfect for hot days and long hours spent in the sun. Another detail on this dress that sold me was the string on the bodice, it adds…

Movie Monday: Lover Come Back (1961)
One of my favorite Rock Hudson and Doris Day films is definitely Lover Come Back! Maybe it is the nostalgia of what was leftover by the 1950’s or the fact that this film centers around two professionals in the advertising business, the major I am currently studying. Whatever the reason, this goofy romantic comedy goes down in the books right next to When Harry Met Sally on my list of all-time greatest films! These photos are not mine. Lover Come Back is a great example of the kind of tried and true friendship Hudson and Day had in real life. Hudson trusted Day’s comedic timing in each film they starred…

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…

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…

The Knotted Romper
What better way to welcome the new month than with a cute romper? This is one of my favorite rompers in my closet! I bought it at the tail end of last summer, maybe that is why I am so fond of it for this time of year. The print vertical styled print is one of my favorite aspects of this romper, I’m also a sucker for anything with stripes! The sleeveless look keeps you cool in the heat while the print keeps the romper interesting. My favorite feature is hands down the knot in the front, though! Not many rompers have a knot to tie so this versatile feature…

Gingham Tank
Not to long ago, I wrote a blog post calling gingham one of the biggest prints of the summer. This prediction did not disappoint! I found this cute tank top at Target. The ruffle was one of my favorite features about this tank when I bought it. However, the first day I wore this top there was a bit of a breeze outside and I had that ruffle flying in my face. It provided for some pretty funny blooper photos though so I was fine with it. Sometimes the wind is our friend and sometimes it is not. Either way, this gingham look is classic and a total win whether…

Long Sleeve Crop Top Fall Comeback
This top above is one of the cutest, simple crop tops that would be perfect for fall! I found it online at So Aesthetic. I’m calling it now, the long sleeved crop top will be the must have for this fall! Although you would think of the crop top as strictly a summer trend, the long sleeved crop top easily slides right into the fall without any trouble. Crop tops have been back in style for a while now, but this summer there were many twists added to the simple design. We saw them become a little more uniquely trimmed with things like color blocking and embroidery. For colder days and even cooler looks,…

Movie Monday: The Philadelphia Story (1940)
Oh The Philadelphia Story! This was the movie that made me question who was the better Hepburn: Audrey or Katherine? Of course, Katherine Hepburn was labeled box office poison for many years until Phillip Barry wrote a screenplay specifically for Hepburn, that play is what became The Philadelphia Story. Katherine Hepburn was so taken with this play that she made the impassioned decision to forgo a salary and fund the whole stage production out of her personal funds. However, being the savvy business women that she was, Hepburn did receive a significant portion of the profits from the huge success that this play became. Katherine Hepburn soon realized the kind of…

Tommy Hilfiger Striped Top
Similar to my look: Top Pants Shoes If this top is giving you nautical vibes, you are not alone. I pair it with white capris and basic white Sperry shoes. This whole outfit made me really want to go boating for the weekend! This top is from Tommy Hilfiger and is one of my new favorites! He designs clothes to flatter women in everyday. Tommy’s designs are consistently the perfect balance between classy and on trend! Like I said earlier, my mind immediately went to the white capris when deciding how to style this top. It just felt like the perfect way to complement the…
