It's Friday lovies and I'm so excited for this extended weekend! On Sunday, my alma mater UK plays our rivals (who really suck!), UL in the first football game of our season! I can't wait to wear UK blue and white and cheer our boys on to a victory! I'm not a professional football fan, but I love me some college football!! Seeing everybody pull and cheer for their fave team gets me so pumped! (Ohhhh C-A-T-S!! CATS! CATS! CATS!) :o)

Today I'm sharing my style with Two Thirty-Five Designs for her Casual Friday Link Up!!

Style Guide: Try adding a brooch to your top, blouse, or blazer as an accessory when it's just too hot for a necklace to jazz up your outfit!

 

The Look: | Chambray top & Skirt: Old Navy | Bag: Vintage Etienne A. | Shoes: Target | Brooch: Vintage | Sunnies & Bangles: HM | Gorgeous Weather: GOD! | Mani: Revlon-Coastal Surf |

Have an amazing Labor Day weekend loves and make sure you get in on some shopping! ;o)

Cheetah Party!

Happy Humpday! It's almost the weekend and I cannot wait! My sis and I went to visit a local veggie garden because we want to start growing our own tomatoes and just look around. We had a lovely time! We also saw a dead squirrel  on the ground and began to run & scream like two crazy people! (50 shades of cray! lol) I have to keep this post super short as I have so many projects to complete in my grad classes this week! But I have some wonderful ideas in the works for this blog and I can't wait to share them with y'all! I will be giving some *sneak peeks* in the following weeks! Hope you enjoy this look! :)

Style Guide: When wearing a simple outfit, adding a scarf and statement necklace brings something special to the overall look. Plus if it's hot outside, you can throw the scarf in your bag and still have on a vibrant accessory!

The Look: | Vest: Old Navy | Tank: H&M | Skirt: F21 (last fall but i need this one!) | Bag: Vintage Dooney & Bourke | Scarf: gifted, but dying over this one! | Sandals: Old/unknown | Sunnies: my Boyfriends |

Monday [INSTA]spiration!!

Happy Monday! I hope you all had wonderful weekends :) Today's look was inspired from a picture I saw a few weeks ago on Instagram. As soon as I saw it, ideas started forming in my head with ways I could create a similar look with pieces in my wardrobe! One of the main things I love about fashion is shopping my own closet and challenging myself to come up with new outfits without buying a thing. Do you do that too? 

What I Wore: | Chambray: Vintage | Tank: F21 | Belt: The Limited | Pants & Flats: Target | Clutch: Vintage | Necklace: R21 |

Scarf Remix...

It's Friday Loves! I just wanted to drop by and show you a new way I've found to wear my scarves when it's hot outside, while adding a pop of color to my looks! Y'all know I love adding some color lol, Enjoy!

Style Guide: Cinch a belt around your waist over a large colorful scarf to add interest to an old maxi dress! 

If you try this look and post it on your blog, please link back to me, i'd love to check it out (plus it's just nice lol)

Style Mash-Up: Part Deux!!

 

Hi loves! It's Wednesday and I am back with another post! This is another example of what I love to call a "Style Mash-Up"!  I define it as a look that embodies many facets of my personality while still making sense to me, even if it doesn't to anyone else lol! I mean, neutrals, florals, leopard, pattern mixing, layering, all in one look? oh my! But I love it! You saw my first Style Mash-Up look here. Hope you enjoy this look too! :)

Style Guide: Adding a vest with a neutral color tone will help "neutralize" or give balance to a look with a lot going on.

What I Wore: | Vest: Old Navy | Oxford shirt: Vintage | Jeans: Gap | Oxfords: Gifted | Bag: Louis Vuitton Monogram Speedy 30 | Sunnies: Amazon| Necklace: Rue21 |

Forbidden Fruit!!

It's Monday Loves! How were your weekends? Mine was lovely! I enjoyed having 48 hours of no school worries lol. I spent time with my J's family at their cookout Saturday and yesterday at church! We had a great time eating and laughing! You've seen this skirt in one of my first outfit posts EVER here! This skirt is one of my favorite vintage finds! I mean, look at the vibrancy of the floral and fruit print, I would wear this once a week if I could! 

Style Guide: When wearing a skirt with large vibrant print, a chambray top and chunkier belt helps balance the look out while not taking away from it.

Casual Friday: Channel Orange...

It's FINALLY Friday! I'm looking forward to relaxing for two whole days now that Summer school has ended. My fall classes begin Monday...(blah!) Anywho, I wore this look for a dinner date with J! I wanted to be cute yet relaxed and so I threw on one of my fave cotton dresses and my newly handy denim vest. Some camel sandals and my crossbody, with chunky jewelry and I was ready! 

My cutie pie won't ever let me take pics of him! One day he'll let me feature him,because he has GREAT style!

Yayy! It's Friday!

Green With Envy...

Happy Humpday loves! So I planned to wear this look with a blazer but despite the sun not shining, it was nearly 80 degrees so that was NOT happening! I envy all my fellow style bloggers that can already start layering sweaters and blazers with their looks. Autumn where are you?? I can't wait to be with you once again! 

Style Guide: When wearing a multicolored statement necklace, try  wearing shoes & or a clutch that pulls from one of the colors to pull the look together.
