How to Style Birkenstocks
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…

3 Different Ways to Dress up Jeans for School
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…

4 Dresses, 4 Tops, and 2 Bathing Suits all for only $100?! My Experience: Shopping Romwe and Haul!
We’ve all seen it: those massive hauls on Youtube full of dirt cheap trendy clothes from wholesale websites like Romwe and Shein. We have all wondered if it is a scam and heard the rumor that only bloggers/youtubers sponsored by these sites get the good quality products that are actually what they ordered. I have been browsing these sites for about a year considering all these rumors and wanting to try it out for my self- so I did! I bought these pieces myself with money I made on Poshmark and Romwe does not know me or know that I am a blogger so there is no bias in what…

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…

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!

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…
