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…

Off the Shoulder Day to Night!
Today I am showing how to style this champagne colored off the shoulder satin top that seems like a nighttime only top in both the daytime and nighttime! I scored this top for only $3 on the clearance rack at Rue 21! I could not find deals like this online, but I have linked several similar options all under $15 below! Day: Here I am pairing the top casually with distressed high waisted jeans and Jack Rogers sandals! The satin material paired with the tears in the jeans is the perfect balance of casual and dressy! Wearing sandals with this look is the easiest way to dress it down for…

Lace Up Trend
Yet another trend that has made its way back around! I remember when I was little I had an Abercrombie and Fitch hoodie with the lace up detail and absolutely hated the lace up part! I thought it made me feel like a pirate or something! I plan to do a post all about my style evolution, inspired by @pastelnpinkblog on Instagram,, soon! Check out this post:Old is the New New for all my thoughts on reoccurring trends! I guess you could say that the trend has grown on me! I actually have two dresses and one top with this detail!

My Basic Fashion Rules
First off, I don’t have many rules because I believe anyone is allowed to dress any way they desire because it is a form of self expression and I am very open about many different styles, so these are just recommendations! And, these rules are more important when it comes to a professional setting! 1. Short Skirt=Short Heels, Long Skirt=Tall Heels: It’s just class. The more leg you show, the less heel you wear and the less leg, the more heel. It is an important key to showing that you are a classy, professional woman. 2. Black and Navy should NEVER mix They clash. 3. The “No White Pants After…
