Class Classics

Outfits

It’s official… my little sister starts college today! I am so excited for her (and very jealous haha) and hope she has a wonderful first day at Iowa State.  This weekend I went back to some of the classic pieces I would wear to class end of August and throughout fall.  These included flouncy skirts, casual tops and a scarf, statement necklace or hair pieces, and of course a pair of sunglasses!  Simple, smart pieces always made it easy for me to get ready in the morning.  Anyway, clearly not wearing these pieces to class anymore, but that doesn’t...

Back on Campus

Outfits

This past weekend, I got to spend a wonderful night with all of my girlfriends from college, some that I haven’t seen in over a year or two! We had a ton of fun at our friend’s wedding reception and before my boyfriend and I headed home to Minnesota, I really wanted to enjoy the beauty of Iowa State’s campus! It has been just over two years since I graduated, and I miss it dearly! Lots of memories while walking around and visiting the Greenlee School of Journalism and enjoying the great view of the campanile and Catt Hall....

Leopard & Sneakers

This is what I wore yesterday to go mini golfing with my friend and then eating dinner (sticky rice and sliced beef, yum!) It was super fun and this outfit was perfect to beat the heat! Hope everyone had a great weekend and you have an amazing Monday!

Simplicity at its Best

Outfits

Basically the title of my post says it all… this outfit is extremely simple to throw together and is so comfortable.  Unfortunately, it is only a weekend outfit because it’s a bit too casual for work, but I still love it!  I was inspired by Lucky magazine’s spread on how to mix and match a few items for A Month of Outfits” from the November 2008 issue. I have kept that magazine and tabbed out that section because it’s always been a source of inspiration for me!  Anyway, I love the hidden polka dot pattern on this short-sleeved cape...
