Casual Monday Outfit

Hello! 

Today I'm bringing to you another outfit post! I was having a pretty chill monday so here is a very simple outfit.

It was pouring rain here but I managed to find some time to shoot some photos in this dreary weather. I feel like it rains everyday now! Anyways - with the end of summer approaching quickly I decided to get in a few more fun summer outfit posts!




This is another one of my go-to outfits. I picked up these vintage high waisted shorts about a year ago and I'm obsessed with them! I've never found a pair of high waisted shorts that I find flattering (and long enough!) and these fit like a glove. I was never a huge shorts wearer before I got these and now I want to wear them with everything. 



I paired the shorts with a baggier t-shirt that I thrifted a few weeks ago. It's originally from urban outfitters and so comfortable! I'm normally not a big v-neck fan but this one is really nice. I also love the different colors of stripes. It's really different from my MANY other striped shirts! I also just added a nice brown braided belt from Forever 21 I got years ago. 

 



As for shows I just wore my trusty black flats from Target. These are fairly old but I know they still make this kind of flats. They're great for the rain and have lasted for a really long time.

The Military Vest / Entirely Thrifted Outfit

Hello!
If you can't tell from this color palette of this outfit... I am extremely ready for fall. I do love bright colors (like my previous post) But in all honesty - I am so over the 100 degree weather, sweating profusely when I leave the house, and not being able to wear a sweater! So I decided for a more muted color palette. 



I also decided on this outfit on Monday because it was National Thrift Shop day! And this outfit is entirely thrifted! I recently thrifted the vest but it's originally from H&M. Some of the buttons are a little loose but I found it for 2 dollars and I just couldn't pass it up! I love how military inspired it is! ButI also feel a bit like I'm in a marching band when I wear it too. I can definitely see getting a ton of use out of this in the fall. (You'll also see from many of my posts I am addicted to vests!!) 



I thrifted the gray skirt on the same thrifting trip and it is originally from Express. I originally picked it up to wear under a sheer purple Maxi skirt I have but I decided I liked it on its own too much! My brown/salmon colored shirt is originally from H&M. 


My shoes are probably my favorites part of this outfit. They are indeed little boy shoes but when I saw them they were in perfect condition and I couldn't pass them up! When I brought them home from the thrift store I showed them to my dad. He promptly went to his room and grabbed the same pair of shoes out of his closet!! What a hilarious and wonderful find. I've had them for about a year or two now and they've still held up great! My floral socks are hand-me-downs from my Mom and I wear them all the time.

The Orange Dress

Hello! 
I'm back with a new outfit post! 

I'm going to be honest with you - I haven't had the best summer. I graduated from college in May and I haven't had the best luck finding a job hence the reason why I started this blog! (not to make money but it's something fun to do and take my mind off the whole job applying process). But the reason I'm telling you this is because when I'm feeling down I try and wear really bright colors - hence the reason for this dress! And I must say - this is the perfect summer dress!





 I actually received this dress from a friend because it shrunk in the wash and was too small for her. Lucky me! She originally got it from Kohl's. It is a little short of me but I still wear it because it's so comfy and such a vibrant color. The detailing is also beautiful and it has a slip underneath, which makes it the perfect everyday dress!








I got the necklace about a year ago at Old Navy for around 10 dollars. I love the length and the tassel at the end! It goes with so many things and I'm sure you'll see it in a ton of blog posts. For my shoes I wore my trusty Target sneakers I got for 5 dollars on sale last month. I've worn them almost everyday this summer since I've gotten them. 





Well that's it! I hope you enjoyed today's post and I'll see you on Wednesday.

The Perfect Floral Dress

Hello!

Today I’m bringing to you another outfit post! Despite the heat, I headed outside to a new location to shoot some photos. I really liked how they turned out.





Everyone always says you need a little black dress in your wardrobe, which I think is true. But I also think you need a perfect floral dress! You’ll probably notice from outfit posts that I love a good floral pattern and this dress has the most adorable one! I had a meeting today so I decided to wear something a little nicer and this dress is always a safe choice.




I actually got this dress at Nordstrom last summer during their huge sale (and I had a gift card!) and I’ve been pleasantly surprised by how versatile it is. I love that it has sleeves as well as a higher neckline. It’s perfect for almost any occasion! Plus, the pattern is just perfect.



For my shoes I decided to wear some oxfords I thrifted last summer as well. I have very small feet so I was shocked that these fit me! I think they give this dress a nice Vintage feel as well, which is something I try and strive for.



I also thrifted my necklace a long time ago. It’s absolutely my favorite necklace. I wear it constantly. I don’t really wear large statement necklaces but this one gives just enough of a statement to not be overwhelming.



As for make-up I didn’t wear too much today, just a brown shimmery eyeshadow all over the lid, bb cream (whattup SPF!), blush and some mascara. I liked how simple this look is and I think it is becoming my everyday look.

What is your go-to dress or pattern?
