Girl Getaway

Skirt: Max Studios via Marshall's Shirt: J. Crew Clutch: J. Crew Necklace: F21 Belt: Thrifted

A huge thanks to my best friend, Kel, for snappin' a couple outfit shots today! 
My "girl getaway" in West Palm Beach, Florida is coming to a close - I've been so grateful to spend 10 days with my best friends in paradise! It's been a great way to start the summer wrap up/pre-college season. The summer will soon be behind us...Enjoy every moment!

I can't help but mix patterns...I really just can't stop...xx

Autumn Dreams


I can't help but look forward to the cool, crisp days of Autumn; I also can't wait to fill my closet with pieces great for layering, color tones in rich camel and rust, and a million blazers...so, until that beautiful moment when 97 degree weather is no more and the breeze that blows through Jersey is not one that makes you want to dunk your head in an ice bucket, a girl can dream, can't she?

4. Zara Blazer (on sale)

What's on your fashion list for fall?

I Just Wanna See You Stripe

Dress: Gap (30% off clearance sale!) Flats: BCBG via DSW Clutch: J. Crew (40% off clearance sale!) Necklace: F21 Bracelet: J. Crew

If I could choose a pattern to wear for the rest of my life, it'd be stripes. In all different colors, in all different widths, in every which way. Clearly, I'm off to a good start. 

Happy Monday! xx

A Pretty Dress for a Pretty Penny

Dress: American Eagle ($5, thrifted!), Wedges: Payless Jewels: Lauren Conrad, J. Crew, gifted

Every girls needs a light, floral dress to pass summer days in. And what girl wouldn't love for that dress to be $5? No girl. Unless she's crazy, which in that case, voids her opinion in my book. 

And...Meet the photographer! (Even though I'm sure many of you know her)
Pants: Ralph Lauren Top: Banana Republic Factory Store Sandals: Gap

She's pretty stylish, too, eh? 
Thanks for reading! xx

MAXImize

Skirt: Max Studios via Marshall's ($78 down to $20!) Tee: American Eagle Denim Jacket: H&M Shoes: American Eagle Necklace: F21 Bracelets: J. Crew, Alex and Ani, gifted Tote: Lucky Brand

Here goes nothin'. I've never owned/worn a maxi skirt before....a maxi dress, yes, but for some reason, the idea of a maxi skirt and the comprehension of my 5'3'' stature always prevented me from dressing myself in floor-sweeping clothing (except for here, but that of course, is an exception!). So for all you short girls who are scared of maxis, I have a couple pieces of advice: 

1. Stripes
2. Verticle/Slanted stripes (Unless you're a twig and can pull off horizontal stripes without looking like someone clicked "widescreen" on reality)
3. "The Perfect Length" 

Hope everyone's having a great weekend! xx Thank you for reading!

I'd also like to take this time to thank my beautiful, talented sister, Liv, for grinning and bearing it when I ask her to take blog photos and for taking such beautiful pictures! You're the best, sis!

The Elephant in the Room

Tee: Lucky Brand Denim: American Eagle Shoes: Elle Belt: American Eagle Necklace: Lucky Brand Bracelets: J. Crew, Alex and Ani, gifted 

I love this elephant graphic tee...totally unusual, but funky and cool! 
I guess I'm into animal-inspired tee shirts...and voila, click to see proof! 

Enjoy the weekend! xx

Watermelon

Button Up: J. Crew Shorts: Banana Republic Factory Store Shoes: Lela Rose for Payless Jewels: J. Crew, Lucky Brand, Alex and Ani, F21, Lauren Conrad, gifted

I think I love preppy outfits more than most other things. And sock buns. And kelly green. There's just a whole lot of love goin' on today.
