New Year, New Wardrobe: Curating My Perfect Closet

February 2, 2020

Every year I say 'new year, new me' and every year I mean it...at least for a couple of months. This year, I'm making serious changes in my life that will help me feel more myself than I have been for the past few years.

My mood has always been influenced by how I look and what I wear, which is why even on my worst days you'll see me wearing real clothes and you'll rarely ever catch me in sweatpants. In an effort to completely reinvent myself this year, I have to start with revamping my wardrobe. 

Be Mine?

Happy Valentine's week! Even though it's a 'Hallmark Holiday', Valentine's day is one of my favorite holidays. I've never celebrated the holiday romantically, but what's more fun than a movie, dinner, and dancing with your best girls? I love to wear pink and red, so this week I've taken full advantage of the holiday to wear all of my rose-colored pieces, including this amazing pink sweater.

Happy Wednesday! One of my New Year’s resolutions is to spend more time developing my personal style. This outfit exemplifies my personal style and I love that the pieces are unique. I used to share outfits on my blog all the time and even though I focus more on beauty than fashion, this is a personal blog and I want to share more outfits!

Happy holidays! It's the weekend before Christmas which means holiday parties galore and even though I won't be stepping out this weekend (thank you wisdom teeth), I've planned and already worn some great outfits for every occasion!

My Purse, It Has Everything

This bag is my end all be all. Seriously, I may never buy another purse again.

The Best Travel Outfit Ever

The day before my Hong  Kong flight I was in Urban Outfitters (when am I not there) picking up another pair of my favorite skinny jeans (and they're super on sale!!). As I was wandering around the store, I realized that as much as I love those jeans (and I really do) I was not looking forward to wearing them for over 24 hours on the plane and in the airport. That's when I saw the dress. 

I'm Thankful For...

November 21, 2017

Happy Tuesday! Thanksgiving, AKA my favorite day of the year, is just two days away and I've been thinking lately about everything I have to be thankful for. Obviously, I'm thankful for my family, friends, and the opportunity to go to my dream school; but, today I want to focus on some of the smaller things that bring me joy! I'm thankful for...

Loving Lavender

Hi everyone! I cannot believe that this is one of my last outfit posts of the summer and my last post at home before I move to D.C. The big move is the day after tomorrow and I have spent every spare moment in the last week double checking my packing lists and repacking everything so it will fit in the car on the ride up! I've had such a relaxing summer and I'm so blessed to have been able to spend time with my friends and family before I leave.

Welcome back everyone! I want to start off by saying that the inspiration for today's post comes from my girl Shannon over at Prep Avenue! In one of her recent posts, she shared some pictures from a sunflower field in Raleigh and she was kind enough to share the address when I asked!

Happy 4th of July to all of my American friends! For me, the 4th of July has never been my favorite holiday because I'm always out of town at our family reunion and I never get to enjoy fireworks or festivities with my friends. Last year one of my friends had a cookout and I had a great time, but this year all of my friends are out of town this week (just my luck)! I think the plan for today is to finally see Cars 3 and have fun with my immediate family and hopefully make a fun dessert (I'm a sucker for those American flag pies)!
