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.

I’m lucky enough that…

Styling a Trendy Item

Hi everyone, happy Friday! Today I’m going to talk about making a trendy item your own.

I love this look and I’ve loved watching other bloggers style it. Personally, I’m not about wearing something just because it’s in or because everyone else is wearing it, so I had to make this my own. I found this center zipper faux suede skirt on H&M at it was love at first sight. Lets take…
