outfit of the day

Since summer is nearly done (can you believe it's September already?!) I thought I would share my outfit of the days from the last few months to end off the season.

simple fringe

As I've said before I'm not the biggest fan of the 70's look that has been quite literally everywhere this spring and summer (mostly because I can't pull off most of those looks). But, as I've also said before, this summer I really started getting into some simple boho looks that aren't too over the top, and really loving it. I've now gotten used to the flowy dresses, long bohemian necklaces, and sandals, but still the fringe trend is something I'm having a little trouble getting on board with. I'm a simple girl with simple style, and therefore I'm always looking at how to make the crazy trends more my speed and wearable for me.

classic summer prints

It seems every season we invest in brand new trendy pieces that we always say we'll wear again and again, but somehow only last us through the season. However, in reality, a lot of trends and prints come back in style year after year, with a subtle twist. So I'm going to show you some classic summer prints that you should invest in, and if you already own these prints, you should break them out of your closet and put a 2015 spin on them.

summer office outfits

No matter what kind of office environment you work in (conservative, laid back, etc.) come summer, you definitely want to add some interest and oomph into your outfits. No one wants to be putting on bland grey pantsuits when the sun is shining, the sky is blue, and it's 30+ degrees (plus humidity). Even if you have to wear pants and a blazer, you should be able to express your summer style, even while at work. So I've decided to help you with your summer office outfits inspo.

outfit of the day

A while ago I started a new segment called "Outfit Of The Day", where I share some old Instagram outfits with you. I just wanted to share some of my Spring 2015 outfits with you, now that it's almost summer. I'm also super excited that the weather is finally starting to feel like it too, after all the grey skies and chilly days the past few weeks. I'm so ready for sun and hot days, and I would even take a little humidity if it meant finally feeling like it's summer. Are you excited to break out your summer outfits?

all white boho

I've never been a huge fan of the boho style on myself. I can definitely appreciate it on someone who has the style and body for it (I'm short and curvy so very flowy things don't always flatter me well), but the most boho I think I've ever gone is throwing on a simple kimono over a tank and jeans (please refer to this insta from last summer).

Maybe it's because of my height (5 feet on the dot), or because I know they're not very practical for work (they're not very easy to move around in, especially in a very fast paced, physically demanding environment) but I never really pay much attention to maxi dresses. That is, with the intent of buying them. I always admire them, and even put outfits together in my mind for them, but I know I'll never really bring myself to buy one because it's just not very practical for me right now.
