Poolside Chilling

 

There’s something about a casual summer dress that can just put you in the right mood. This little piece was so easy to slip on and go, and it was so breezy and comfortable while I was out doing errands today. I love how girls and women living in my hometown suburb are starting to wear dresses on the daily now. Maybe not the majority, but at least some of us are putting more effort into what we wear instead of the usual jean shorts, basic tank top, and flip flops!

Just a quick post today, but I have a whole lineup of good ones ready to go so check back soon :)

Ballet, Jewels, and Studs

Meet my new babies! I got them a few days ago at DSW, aka shoe heaven. I'm currently obsessed with the nude ballet flat, which I swear is really a ballet slipper in disguise. Just look at it. My second favorite out of the three is the blue-crystal-accented sandal. I have a  thing for thong sandals this summer, and the light turquoise + gold combo just makes it ten times better. Lastly, those black flats are a classic with an edgier twist, taking it from a noob-looking ballet flat (as I find most black ballet flats look), to one with a chic spice.

New Tops for June

I'm still so equivocal in my opinion toward blogging about clothes. It's not like I'm the best at it, and it's not the most substantial topic out there, but it's a heck of a fun one, at least for me. Call it my guilty pleasure, but has it ever hurt anyone to relish the joy of lovely outfits and the allure of a stylish life? I may come across as materialistic at times, but really, what I'm obsessed with is not necessarily the clothes themselves, but everything they can represent. With that, let me show off some shiny new things I bought recently :) I tried to mix things up by buying brighter colors and different textures, because reviewing my closet, too many of my shirts (the essential tee times 10) looked exactly the same but in various pastels.

Favorite buy of them all? This lipstick from J. Crew in French Martini. It's not as coral bright as the box, but instead goes on a bit lighter, softer, pinker, and somewhat more translucent. You could layer on more for that bright coral, which would make a great accent for any summer outfit, or swipe on a sheer layer for everyday wear.

Prep For Summer

A care-free getup I plan to live in during the summer months. I used to not like these Sperries, but now, they complete me. And so many of my outfits.

Holiday Spirit

Merry Christmas everyone! In the tradition of gifts and new things, here are some of the clothes I bought from my trip to NYC, including a minimalistic holiday shirt that hangs perfectly, various essentials sealed up in Japanese technology, and a winter-print scarf with matching socks.

But in the true spirit of Christmas, last Sunday I went to mass in St. Patrick's Cathedral right in the midst of the hustle and bustle of glittering stores in the city. It was a wakeup call for me, reminding me that Christmas is less about Santa Clause and more about, oh that's right, the Son of God.
