Summer Whites

It's officially summer where I am. I am hoping its warmed up for those of you that had a harsh winter! One thing I love about summer is the color white. I don't agree with the silly rule of only wearing white at certain times of the year, but a lot of brands make gorgeous white clothing in the summer months! 

I received this crop set from Toby Heart Ginger recently and I love it so much. If you're not comfortable in crop sets you can always opt for white jeans, dresses, and skirts :) I'll link a few items below I think will look good on every body type. Not that you should dress based on your body type, I just don't want to leave anyone's style or shape out. 

I'm really happy with how my hair turned out. I used the nume 19" magic wand and I highly recommend! I have a lot of hair so it was time consuming but well worth it! Use the code heart29 to get any wand for $29! 

I'm linking a few things below if you're interested in trying the white trend that will always be around. All images are off the websites they belong too :)

Thank you so much for reading! I know a lot of women only like to wear black, I get it! Don't be afraid to try something new. White is the opposite of black but just as fun!

AGACI

I didn't initially plan on making a post today, but I really love this dress so I figured I would share the deets on it.

 One of my favorite stores to shop in locally is AGACI. Sadly a lot of their things don't fit me. I am a size 0-2 and they carry S-L, so besides the bodycon dresses a lot of the stuff baggy on me. But I was happy to find that this dress fit me. And it's on sale right now :)

Classic pink

I've been trying out new styles lately, and I absolutely adore how feminine this outfit is. While crop tops are definitely a style that come in out and out of popularity, I think the silhouette of this skirt screams classic. As we know some things will always remain timeless- the little black dress, feminine colors, knee length skirts, winged eyeliner. 

As mentioned in my last blog post, I love BlackMilk's wanderlust collection. It's very reminiscent of 1969. And who doesn't like to play up with their wardrobe with styles from the past? Fashion can take you where you want to go. And I do believe you should have fun with it. Basics are nice, but to me I want to look back and think I experiemented a little, even if things are out of my comfort zone. This outfit isn't exactly edgy, it's very girly and whimsical but it's not my usual style and I love that it has a little touch of the past. 

Let's also talk pink, love or hate? I absolutely adore pink, because of how feminine it is. It reminds me of ballet classes as a little girl. This skirt is the perfect shade of ballet pink for my liking.

1969

Blackmilk released their wanderlust collection recently and I'm obsessed. I love that everything revolves around 1969. I had a hard time not buying everything. 

My favorite from the collection is definitely the bell bottom set! I've been wanting to buy flare jeans lately, being that the 70's trend is huge right now, but I'm not a big jeans person. So when I saw that bm is making bell bottoms again I was super happy! They are wifey material, meaning they're lined in fleece, making them the most comfy pair of leggings/pants/etc ever. I didn't want to take them off at the end of the day lol.  I sized down like I do in all wifey pieces and got an XXS in the crop and bottoms. I would suggest sizing down if you can, because unless you're above 5'8 these will be a little long. I'm 5'5 but I have pretty long legs, luckily they work perfectly with heels. You may want to invest in a good pair of platforms for this outfit if you're on the shorter side. 

I was really excited to take pics in this outfit because I normally stick to crop sets, but I have been branching out and trying new styles lately. So when my friend wanted to do a photoshoot with me, I knew this outfit would be the focus! (I took a bunch of other outfit photos, but I'm going to put those in later outfit posts) 

Thanks for reading! PS if the bell bottoms are sold out in your size, don't be sad! There will be some new prints in the next collection on March 8!

Ice cream Swim

I've blogged about this bikini before but I got a lot of DM's about it on IG so I decided to make a new one so it could be easy to find. 

I bought this swim at mod cloth last Fourth of July sale. I absolutely love everything about it. It's very retro but it's cute at the same time. I'm not usually comfortable in overly sexy pieces but I absolutely adore this one because of the print and Ruffles. 

It's almost true to size but I find the top runs slightly tight. I'm a true 34 b and I feel like it slightly squishes my boobs. But I do feel like a 36 b would hang off. So I would suggest going a cup size up or the equivalent of the next size up. (remember that going up doesn't mean increasing the band) 

I looked for the link but it doesn't appear to be on the site. I remember finding this swim last January when it was sold out and it appeared back for sale around spring. They have a habit of selling things that are in demand. I have however made a few links for other swim suits that are similar in print, style or have a retro vibe. :) 

FYI you don't have to be super skinny to wear a high waist bikini! I personally think any body type can rock this type of swim suit. So don't be afraid to try it.

Little denim

Hello, I know it's January. But I don't care. I live in the middle of the desert anyways. I love these little shorts from Sabo skirt. Perfect for summer, I recommend sizing up if you have a bum because I'm usually an XS, and I sizes up to a small to keep my bum in them lol. 

This top is part of the "Newport dress set" from Toby heart ginger, but I think it's the perfect crop to match anything. Size up or twice if you are busty. This is an XS, which is my usually size. As you can see I'm not busty so the small fit on the sides won't make much a difference. 

 I've also been using loving tan  to fake tan and I love it! This is the medium. It goes on easy, but I recommend using a glove when applying. Go for the dark or ultra dark if you want something more intense! I will be making a blog later on about tanning. I'm still trying to find the perfect color. I will be trying the dark next. So I'll blog about all the tanners I've tried if you are looking to try it. 

Sorry for such a short post!

Pushing daisies

Have I mentioned how much I love summer? I feel like I spend half the year counting down until the warmer weather starts to hit. I'm just looking forward to days at the pool, and having lunch dates outside the little cafes around here. I got this "pushing daisies" set from Iloveshowpo.com and I'm so in love! It's perfect for summer. Now if only the weather would catch up. Their sizing is pretty true to size. But I would suggest sizing up on tight fit items. I'm usually inbetween a XS and Small, usually more so on the XS. And the small fit me perfect! (Their other items fit me in a XS). 

On my next blog ➵  I'm working on a favorites blog for beauty and hair products. I completely changed my hair, makeup and tanning routine so please check that out if you're interested!
