Wearing Lilly Pulitzer at Night!
When I think of styling pieces at night time I tend to think darker, tighter, sleeker. You know what I mean, shorter skirts, leather leggings, over the knee boots, low cut tops, higher heels, black, black, black. When someone requested I style a Lilly Pulitzer piece from day to night, I was stuck. I stood in my closet staring at my Lilly wondering how I could follow all the rules of styling for night time with these bright, floral pieces. And them I remembered- I don’t follow the “rules of fashion.” If you read my My Basic Fashion Rules, then you know that there are few rules in fashion I…

High Low Maxi Romper Trend
Once again, I do not think there is a trend I do not love. Well, I take that back. I cannot do the fur shower shoes trend. I can understand it on some people, but I do not like it. If you do not know what I am referring to, check it out here. Anyways, like I was saying, I love this trend. Everyone loves a good romper. Rompers are so easy because you do not have to match up an outfit, just throw on a romper! They are more comfy than dresses because you do not have to worry when you bend down or want to sit criss cross…

What to do when it Rains at the Beach
1. Go Shopping: This is obviously my number one choice and recommendation as to what you should do! There are just so many places to go shopping at the beach such as outlets, shops, beach stores, malls, and even more! 2. Go to the Aquarium: Most of them are inside, right? Go to an aquarium! It is something relative to the beach that you probably would not get to see at home! 3. Go to the Sun! Find where it is not raining, and drive to that end of the beach! If you are dying to see some sun, this is the perfect option for you! 4. Take a day…

What’s in my Beach Bag!
Towel: Obviously, you need a towel! I have a cute anchor one that I love! Sunglasses: I do not find my self wearing sun glasses on a daily basis, but they are a necessity for the beach! I have a pair of gold Ray Bans with blue lens that I love! It is also necessary that you use sun glass straps! I have several Lilly Pulitzer ones that I love! Hat: I have super light blonde hair so if I do not wear a hat, I will burn my scalp where my hair parts! I normally always wear Vineyard Vines hats, but this year I also bought a large sun…

How I Spend a Vacation Day at the Beach + My ootd!
How my beach trips with my mom normally go is we spend nearly every day on the beach and the day it rains we go shopping! Most of the time, the day goes like this: we spend the morning on the beach when it is not too hot, go in for lunch, then spend the rest of the day at the pool! Sometimes we go out to dinner and some days we just cook! When my friends are at the beach too, we like to do things like go to the outlets or shops around the town in the evenings! When I am with my friend’s family, we tend to…

My Thoughts on the Embroidery Trend!
You guessed it! Like I do every other trend, I love it! I have been wanting some embroidered pieces for over a year now! I was even loving the trend so much last year that I based the outfit I made at an NC State University Summer camp all around it! You can read all about my experience here: My Experience: STEP and NC State has also published it on their website! Anyways, to get back to the point, we got to do trend research in the lab before beginning our clothing item, and the trend I decided to focus on was embroidery! Check out the post I linked to…

Beach Trip Packing List!
I am about to go on a two week beach trip so I am going to go through what I plan to take with me to help y’all have a packing list to go by for your trips but also for me to ensure that I do not forget anything! Outfits: Going Out Outfits: Is it just me, or do you also tend to pack twice the amount of outfits you need and you only end up wearing half of them? I also always pack really nice outfits and end up wearing my sweats 90% of the time, but I refuse to let that stop me! Here are some photos…

My Experience: Freshman Orientation
What I brought: Sheets: You will be staying in a dorm so it is required that you bring sheets or a sleeping bag or else you will be sleeping on just a mattress! Toiletries: My orientation was only one night so I did not take a shower but if you plan to you will need to bring all your toiletries, towels, and most important: SHOWER SHOES Any Snacks you Want: The way my food situation worked was that you got a meal ticket to the dining hall for lunch the day you arrived, dinner that night, and breakfast the next morning. Anytime you are hungry in between, you are responsible…
