Christmas Wishlist Ideas
Things I have been Eying this Year: 1. Target Cheetah Booties/Charming Charlie’s Cheetah Booties If you read my Fall Trends Look Book post, then you know that cheetah print has been super on trend this season. This year, Sam Edelman has obviously been killing it. They came out with these cheetah booties that everyone has been loving, but Charming Charlie’s has nearly the same pair for again, a fraction of the cost. Target also has an adorable option! 2. Moscato and Monograms Sherpa Pullover These sherpa pullovers have been popular for years, and rightfully so. Have you ever felt one?? They are SO soft! The “name brand” version is from True Grit,…

Black Friday Tips//What I Bought
Thanksgiving is quickly approaching and you know what that means- so are the sales!! I went black Friday/Cyber Monday shopping for the first time ever last year and I had an amazing experience! None of the horror stories of people ripped items out of your hands or pushing you down to get to an item first. Don’t get me wrong, it was extremely crowded at some points, but it was worth it! 1. Do your Research My main and most important tip is to do your research. By this I mean know what stores are having the best sales, what items you want to try to score from that store,…

Thanksgiving Look Book
Today I am sharing four different outfits I would wear for Thanksgiving! There are more dressy looks as well as casual outfits. If you did not know, the blog is currently about a year old and the first look book I ever did was for Thanksgiving! I love all of these looks, but I have a different one in mind that I believe I am going to wear this year. If you want to see that look, make sure you are following me on Instagram, @brightestofthebunch, because I will probably post it Thanksgiving day! This first look is one of the more casual outfits I have chosen. Here I am…

Fall Trends Look Book
If you enjoy this post and want to see more trendy fall looks, check out this video: FALL TREND LOOK BOOK//HOW TO STYLE OVER THE KNEE BOOTS. In the first look I am styling a gold corduroy jumper dress that gives the same affect as the overall trend, but does not look as childish! Don’t get me wrong, I love the overall trend and have a black overall dress I love to wear for game day. All I am saying is, if you want to try out the trend but do not think full on overalls are exactly your thing, this is the perfect option for you. This dress has a lower…

Top 10 Fall Essentials
Bean boots, flannels, vests; what more could you want!? Fall is by far one of my favorite season to dress for! In the colder months, I find myself continuously going for pretty much the same staple pieces I do every year. Today, I am sharing my top ten fall essentials and they are each linked in their title! L. L. Bean Boots L.L. Bean boots are BY FAR the most essential fall item in my wardrobe. I could honestly go on and on about them forever. They are amazing quality, super comfortable, and match nearly every fall outfit! Unfortunately, they can be hard to get a hold of in the…

Prep for Less!
1. Do not be afraid to shop second hand: I know some people are afraid to shop at Goodwill because they think that all they will find is old dirty clothes that no one wants. Sometimes that is the case, but sometimes, you can find some amazing pieces for even better prices. The thing about Goodwill is, no matter what brand the item is, it is the same cost as every other item on its rack. For example, a Walmart top costs $3, and so would a Lilly Pulitzer top. I have found SEVERAL different Lilly Pulitzer items at my local goos will and I am sharing them all in…

OOTD: October 19, 2017
So it turns out this daily outfit of the day blog series is not working out so well, but I am doing my best. Today I had to go interview a doctor for my Entrepreneurial Thinking class so I had to dress up more than I would for an average college day. This is basically y the outfit I wore, but surprisingly enough, it has gotten colder here in North Carolina. Since Mother Nature has finally decided it is fall, I paired this outfit with my J.Crew field jacket and riding boots instead of Jack Rogers. Anyways, since I had the interview, I wore this collared shirt from the Vineyard…

OOTD: October 16, 2017
Today’s OOTD is full of SGP! Today is the first day that it has realistically been cold enough to break out the L.L. Bean Boots and fleece vests here in North Carolina, even though I brought them out about a week ago. And let me tell you, I am so beyond excited to be able to wear bean boots and vests all day instead of having them on in the morning and having to change into shorts by 1:00. Today I am wearing one of my basic fall outfits. As you all probably know by now, my Bean Boots are my number one essential for fall. Speaking of fall essentials,…

OOTD: October 11, 2017
This Victoria Secret PINK tee was sent to me to share with y’all and it is honestly one of my favorite tees ever! I love how neon the pink is and I have tied a knot on the side to give it a little extra detail! I am also wearing Hollister shorts, a black choker, my Kendra Scott Elle’s, and my white kids Converse! These Hollister shorts are some of my favorite shorts. I normally wear a double zero in J.Crew and Lilly Pulitzer and I purchased a double zero in these! These fit me perfectly, but I have another pair of double zero Hollister shorts that are too tight,…
