New Years Eve

Can't believe it's almost 2016! Do you have any New Years goals this year? I'm dedicating more time to my blog and Instagram this year so I can accomplish more goals. Besides that my goal is just to always be happy. If you've had a bad year, now is the time to recharge and be hopeful. Life is never predictable who knows where you'll be next year! 

One thing I love about New Years is how dressed up everyone gets! It's all about being bold. I bought this dress and bag from Sabo Skirt a few years ago. It's been sitting in my closet so I figured tonight was the perfect night to wear it.

Public Desire Laurel

I bought these lovely boots from public desire and I love them so much. I think they pair perfectly with this skirt from American Apparel! They come in black, khaki, and tan. (These are the tan). They run true to size. When inbetween sizes I size down because I have narrow feet and small calves, I would suggest sizing up if you have larger calves. 

The skirt runs atleast a size small.

Holiday Lace

This the season to dress up. Can't believe it's already Christmas time. I get a lot of questions about how I stay warm, with the way I dress and quite simply I'm the type of person who considers 60 degrees warm. I love cold weather cause I constantly feel hot. I'm jealous of anyone who has snow right now! 

This slip is from Free People, who have become my go to for fall clothing! So easy to layer all their pieces. They're expensive but you can find a lot of used pieces on eBay for about 50% off! 

The boots are from Jeffrey Campbell and Free People. Such a good investment! They go with Everything! I highly recommend these if you want a pair of boots that you can wear everyday. They're pricey but well worth it in my opinion.

70's Belle sleeve

I found this dress at Abercombie over the summer and I love it. The 70's are really on trend right now and I love belle sleeve dresses. 

I hadn't been in Abercombie for awhile, so I was pleasantly surprised to find this. I actually used to work as a "floor model" at Abercombie a few years ago. That's just a really nice way of saying "sales associate" lol. Some of their stuff is a little too high school for me, but they're really the only place I know of that sells jeans in my size (size 0). Plus they seem to have better pricing these days. 

The boots were in my last post. I got them at forever 21. I'm sure they're still sold out, but if you want a similar pair look at my last post for a link. 

Thanks for reading!!

Hello November

It's semi warm here still where I live. I'm so used to November being freezing that I find it crazy I can wear this without freezing to death lol. I know everyone is excited for Christmas, but I was born on Thanksgiving so I especially love November lol, I'm so excited for Thanksgiving and my birthday this month.  I bought this button up midi dress and boots at forever 21 when I was in my hometown. I forgot how great forever 21 can be with finding stuff at such affordable prices. 

The hat I got in Venice. I miss Italy so much but I'm so glad I have little pieces in my wardrobe to add to my everyday outfits that remind of it. I used to visit Venice so often I could probably give tours on where to find everything lol. 

At first glance I wouldn't of bought this midi dress. I'm not much of a fan of midi dresses but I love that this opens up so you can basically wear it as a vest/open button up. It's like adding two pieces to your wardrobe. There's tons of colors. But they only had this color at the time. I particularly like the red one (just search "plaid midi button up") I left at the bottom for the dress. The shoes are sold out at the moment but I'll do my best to find a good alternative.

Little Red Riding Hood

Hope everyone had a great Halloween! I had so much fun in this costume. I had a hard time deciding between snow white and red riding hood, but I'm so glad I chose this costume! I was able to have a photoshoot in the woods. Halloween has always been one of my favorite holidays. And I had such an eventful day yesterday. 

Thanks for reading! I hope you all enjoyed your holiday as much as I did! Now it's time to plan for Thanksgiving and Christmas!

70's Inspired Romance

 I recently bought this dress from Free People, and I love everything about it. It definitely has a romantic 70's feel to it.  It's flowy and perfect for any occasion. And the sleeves are to die for! I'm really feeling the 70's trend this fall, especially because of the belle sleeve tops and dresses I see everywhere. It's such an easy trend to pull off too. How are you feeling about the 70's being in style? 

The dress has a build in slip, and I'm glad because it's one of my biggest pet peeves, buying a pricey dress and having to go on a hunt for an under piece. How annoying and impractical. This dress isn't easy to get on, but it's very comfy. 

These boots, were an investment. They cost around $300, but they are extremely comfortable and look great with everything. If you have the money to splurge, I definitely think buying a pair of timeless trendy boots are a must. However, you can find over the knee boots at Charlotte Russe or Forever 21 if you'd like to experiement with the over the knee style for cheap! I adored the distressed and worn look of these boots. They pair well with everything so I'm glad I bought them. 

Dress is the "With Love dress" from Free People $128 

Boots are Joe from Jeffrey Campbell, only available at free people. $298 (if you have large calves or wide feet consider sizing up. I have narrow feet/thin ankles and they fit like a glove)

Thanks for reading!!
