  • New York Fashion Week Fall 2017 Desigual Show Thoughts

    September 8, 2017 /

    As my fellow fashion lovers probably know, New York Fashion Week started Thursday! It is a dream of mine to one day attend NYFW, but for now I have been watching the Live Stream videos that are posted on NYFW’s website and app! I originally was planning to do a recap on everything I saw today, but once I watched the Desigual Show, I knew I had to focus on it. I will discuss the trends I have seen throughout NYFW and share my overall favorites at the end of the week! Thoughts on the Desigual Show: If you have not watched this, you absolutely NEED to. This was by…

  • Future Goals & Looking Back on what I have Accomplished!

    August 30, 2017 /

    It’s funny, I started writing this post over six months ago and it is crazy how much I had to change when editing it. How many of my goals I had accomplished, such as my goal of becoming a Jadelynn Brooke College Rep, and how many of my goal had just changed in general. When I originally drafted this blog post, I wrote that I might start a YouTube channel after I graduated college. I started my YouTube this passed July. I wrote that I hoped to have 5,000 Instagram followers at the end of my freshman year at NC State, I currently have almost 4,200 an 5,000 is my…

  • How to Style Birkenstocks

    August 21, 2017 /

    Whenever I was considering purchasing Birks, I was hesitant because I did not know how I would style them or if they would match many of my outfits. There were a few outfits that I could definitely see myself wearing Birkenstocks with, like these: Babydoll Top Hollister Jeans Lace Up Top But those are only two outfits out of my entire closet, which is no where near a large enough statistic to justify purchasing a pair of $100 shoes. So I took a look at my closet and thought harder about the outfits I could pair Birkenstocks with. I soon realized that Birkenstocks are the perfect shoe to pair with…

  • Lilly Pulitzer After Party Sale Tips and Tricks + What I have Purchased in Past Years and the Price of those Pieces!

    August 18, 2017 /

    The APS sale should be coming up any day now since we are in the early days of September! Rumor has it that the sale will be the 10th! The APS is an exciting “holiday” for us Lilly lovers that occurs twice a year where items can be found for up to 70% off! One thing to note is that once you arrive on the Lilly Pulitzer website at 8:00am you will be placed in a virtual line that will state how many people are in front of you and how long it should be before you are able to enter the site. In my experience, this time is typically…

  • 10 Ways to Grow Blog Traffic

    August 17, 2017 /

    1. Have an Instagram for your Blog: Or you can start out with an Instagram and work your way towards a blog, like I did. Instagram is just a good way to connect with other bloggers and create a loyal following. Instagram is also a great way for brands to see your account and possibly decide to contact you to work with them! I would say that in general, Instagram is the most powerful tool for bloggers- even if it is not the platform that brings the most traffic to their actual blog website! Instagram has so many other valuable tools and ways to connect with your followers that you…

    Today I am sharing my 3 favorite places to take photos, my photography tips for those of us with a low quality camera, and the perfect outfit for blogging photos! In that order! 1. Wall Art: This is my tip for if you are taking photos with an average iPhone (not 7+), and I will talk about even more tips for those of us using our iPhones for blogging later in this post! Taking pics in front of a wall with a low quality camera will hide the fact that it is low quality and turn out better than taking it in open space (in my opinion). I also like…

  • The Meaning Behind my Blog name!

    August 15, 2017 /

    If you have been following along with my Instagram for a while, then you know my username used to be @classicprep98 ! I chose that username because when I began my Instagram I had an only preppy style and had been following many other accounts with “prep” in their username so I thought it would be a way to attract other girls that love the preppy style!

  • Why I’m a Blogger

    August 14, 2017 /

    For as far back as I can remember, I have loved clothing. When I would play with my Barbie Dolls or American Girl Dolls, all I would do was dress them in outfits, set the scene, and then take it apart and set a new scene. I would literally just changed their outfits all day long. Every beach trip I would look forward to the shopping day. That’s right, shopping was always more exciting than the beach or pool, and still is! I would watch America’s Next Top model just to see all the high fashion items and loved the Hannah Montana scenes of Miley in the Hannah closet and…

  • 3 Different Ways to Dress up Jeans for School

    August 10, 2017 /

    When a follower requested this post, I was a little stuck. I guess to me, jeans are sort of dressy. Do not get me wrong, some jeans are definitely casual. What I mean is, I pair denim with everything and anything. Maybe it is just because of the part of the South I have grown up in. I believe that jeans can be paired with any top, but today I will share my most dressed up looks that are paired with jeans! The jeans I am sharing in this post are Abercrombie High Rise Ultra Skinny Jean Leggings and are on sale for only $30! As I mentioned in my…
