Motivation Monday! What is your “big dream”?

Motivation Monday! What is your “big dream”?

Good morning everyone! Happy Labor Day if you’re here in the US! If not, here’s your motivation Monday post.. Growing up I never said I want to be a doctor, police officer, lawyer, veterinarian or anything for that matter. I never had a clue but always knew that I wanted to do something that made a difference. Something that impacted others. My blog is somewhere I could do that, so that’s why I do motivation Monday. I love clothing and fashion, but sometimes I think it’s nice to read something genuinely positive that will hopefully help start your week off…

The Last Sail

The Last Sail

These have been really sad Summer is over post’s but the title’s I’ve been able to come up with in my head have been so catchy! haha so well yea he’s a perfect LDW look. I love incorporating patriotic colors into my looks but also not going overboard. Lets take a look.. Top & Shorts: Forever 21 | Shoes: Pour La Victorie | Bag: Chanel These shorts are perfect if you have THIGHS. I hate that every pair of shorts I own makes me feel like a snausage and I’m not!! So I knew when all the reviews on these…

White Now

White Now

Now, literally. Lades just start piling on all your white this week because Summer is basically over (so depresso). I mean that’s probably totally dramatic, but really wear through all your white this week because Summer is coming to an end shortly. My rule of thumb is, if it’s over 72 degrees you can wear white, if not, don’t. Let’s take a look at this white/cream look I assembled (its also perfect for a winter get-away)… Blazer: H&M | Pants: Forever 21 | Bralette: Miss Guided | Bag: Ferragamo If this look does not scream “chic niece of a retired…

Strap Attack

Strap Attack

If theres any designer shoe worth waiting for it is the Aquazzura Amazon sandal. I pre-ordered these babies in March with an estimated ship date of April/May. I finally received them in July. Theres nothing I love more than a handcrafted item and these shoes do not disappoint. Lets take a look.. Dress: Zara | Jacket: Helmut Lang | Bag: Chanel | Shoes: Aquazzura This is my ode to a wearable version of Kylie Jenner’s general style. I love that the jacket adds some additional edge that the shoes already shine with. I’ll let you in on a little bit more…

Lingerie Lace (that’s totally wearable)

Lingerie Lace (that’s totally wearable)

So these are sold as shorts, but they remind me so much of sexy lingerie. I’ve been dying for a pair of lace trimmed shorts, but some many did not satisfy my expectations. The satin like fabric of these shorts killed it for me! Take a look.. Top: Forever 21 | Shorts: H&M | Shoes: Valentino | Bag:Ferragamo I originally wanted to pair these shorts with a white man tailored shirt to create a tomboy chic look. Unfortunately all (and by all I mean the only one I own) my man tailored white shirts were too long. Like any problem…

So like any normal shopaholic, I stalked this dress for about 3 weeks until it came back in stock. Does anyone else do that or just me? Well I was looking for a not so basic black maxi and I found this. You’ve got to take a look (then maybe you’ll get it).. Dress: Asos | Shoes: Stewart Weitzman | Bag: Chanel This is such an easy outfit. I love that you can 100% also dress this dress down with flat sandals and still look perfectly chic. I would totally wear this home from Long Island or out at a…
