Chambray + Floral Pants

Fashion•Outfits

I never thought I would be able to wear sequins to work until I found this cardigan at Nordstrom Rack. It completely changed my mind and I have been wearing it to the office ever since. With a chambray top, floral trousers and coral heels, I felt like a lot of my personality was shining through at work. Also, I apologize for wearing these floral pants over and over again, they are just SO comfortable. Hope you had a great weekend and happy Monday!

Leopard Print Skirt

Fashion•Outfits

Leopard print and I haven’t always been friends. In fact, when I first fell in love with fashion my senior year of high school, I was very ANTI animal print, especially leopard and snakeskin (which are now my favorites). It wasn’t until I studied abroad and met one of my very best friends Kaitlin, who was obsessed with any and all things animal print, that I gave it a chance. I think I came home with more animal print than anything else. How could I resist when I saw so many stylish Londoners pulling it off flawlessly? So now, enter...

Fringed Floral Kimono

Fashion•Outfits

This past weekend I had a ton of fun back in Iowa with my family! Saturday my mom, little sister and I went to get pedicures and then went thrift store shopping at the local Goodwill. I love shopping at Goodwill in Iowa because there isn’t as much competition (aka not as crazily crowded) as in the Twin Cities. I wore this floral fringed cardigan and white shorts combo for the day, and borrowed some of my mom’s jewelry (the second best part about being home – the first being with my family of course). Thank you to my...

Summer Maxi Dress

Outfits

Let’s ignore the frizzy hair and focus on how gorgeous this dress is… seriously though does someone have any blonde summer hair care tricks? My hair has been frizzy ever since the humidity started taking over Minnesota! Anyway, this is another one of my picks from 10DollarMall.com and can you believe it was only $10?! I have been cleaning out my closet like crazy since last year and one thing I’ve identified that is missing from my closet is simple, colorful summer dresses. Well I’m so glad to add this to my collection, a gorgeous green and blue tye-dye...

Spring Colors at Work

Fashion•Outfits

Here is my second outfit with 10DollarMall.com! You can see my first one from last week here. I called this spring colors because two of my co-workers mentioned I looked very “springy” in this outfit, and I couldn’t agree more! One of the main reasons I love 10DollarMall.com and their new site just for women, Moddeals.com (everything is still under $10!!!!!), is that I can purchase things for work and for fun/the weekend. This cardigan is such a gorgeous color and I love the beading detail. This skirt is absolutely amazing, SO SO SO comfortable. I can not overemphasize how comfortable...

Spring Office Style

Outfits

Happy Monday! Today I am sharing an outfit with pieces from 10DollarMall.com. I love the idea of mixing up my typical work wear (pencil skirts and blouses) with bold patterns and bright colors! I am SO excited to be working with 10DollarMall again! Last year, I shared this, this and this outfit from 10DollarMall.com. I loved my pieces so much that I have been purchasing my own pieces, which I’ve styled here and here. What I absolutely love about 10DollarMall is that nothing is over $10 (hence the name)! It reminds me of F21 or Charlotte Russe, or for those of you who are local,...

Leopard Print Scarf

Outfits

I wore this outfit to run errands this weekend because frankly I’m sick of looking like a hot mess out and about (aka orange sweatpants that are too short on me, greasy hair and a mismatching t-shirt). It was a simple fix —I put on comfy black leggings, a cute leopard print scarf and a blue blazer from Oasap to look more polished. And for my feet? My new comfortable pair of JustFab cognac boots. And there, the result is much better! So much so that when I was leaving the apartment to run errands my boyfriend asked, “going out...

Chunky

Outfits

Today I am teaming up with Amy from Coffee Beans and Bobby Pins! Be sure to check out her post here! I am in love with this shoe trend because chunky heels, whether or not I like to admit it, are much easier to stand in. Granted, these heels are pretty tall, but still fairly easy to walk in surprisingly. There are tons of ways to style chunky heels, but when I saw this pin on Pinterest I knew I had to recreate it and that it would be the perfect look with my Jeffrey Campbell snakeskin print heels....

Animal Print

Fashion•Outfits•Shopping

I adore this leopard print skirt, it is so comfy and perfect for the summer.  I have thought about finding a pencil skirt in reptile or leopard print, but how fun is this hi-low skirt? I know it isn’t as trendy as it was last year and I know a lot of people aren’t fans of this trend in general, but I like this skirt because it is a subtle high-lo style, not above my knees and then all the way to my feet in the back.  Add an adorable peach bow-tie blouse and belt and I was set. This is...
