Get to Know My Style

I had a blog planned for today, but looking back I don't really like it and think it could have been better, so instead I'm going to do a little fashion tag. This will help you guys get a sense of my style and get to know me a little better. I hope you enjoy! 

What is you favorite fashion style to wear? I like bohemian fashion, but I tend to not wear it. Usually I wear more girly dresses in summer time and like 90s grunge in the winter with a little boho intermixed. I would like to wear more bohemian inspired outfits, but I'm not good at stepping out of my comfort zone. 

Who is/are your fashion role model(s)? My sister and my friends all have really great fashion, but as for celebs, I like Vanessa Hudgens, Ashley Tisdale, Zoella (youtuber), and Tess Christine (Youtuber). 

What do you always have on? Jeans. Where I love it's cold most of the year. When it does warm up though, I live in dresses. If I'm not in school though, I just wear yoga pants and a graphic tee. 

What are your favorite jeans? I am 5'6", all legs and relatively skinny, so jeans are hard to find. American Eagle and PacSun are where I get mine. 

What are your favorite sunglasses and shoes? I have real glasses that I always wear, so I don't really wear sunglasses (although I have 3 pairs?) but I like aviators. For shoes, I love combat boots and little sneakers. 
Who influenced you to make a fashion blog? I've always loved fashion, but didn't want to put too many pictures on my Instagram, so I decided to start a blog. I was influenced by some youtubers that I watch. 

What is your favorite store? I love Forever XXI, PacSun, American Eagle, and FreePeople (just to look, way too expensive for me). 

Who is your favorite fashion person on YouTube? I like a lot. AlexCentomo, TessChristine, Zoella, BethanyMota, and AspynOvard
^Alex Centomo^
^Bethany Mota and I^

Heals or flats? I have trouble waking in either haha. Flats or wedges. I'd actually prefer no shoes, but that is frowned upon. 

Who is/are your favorite model(s)? I don't know many big models. But my childhood friend is one and she's gorgeous.  Scarlett Leithold
^Scarlett and I as kids^


I hope you guys enjoyed this even though it is different. I promise I'll have a good post next week, but I didn't want to not post

6 Ways to Style 1 Dress

If you remember from my haul, I recently got this really cute dress from H&M and tried out several ways to style it. A dress like this is very versatile. I showed ways to wear it depending on weather and your style. 
This can be be casually worn with just a pair of sandals. This would be really cute for the spring or summer. 
A simple change of shoes and it instantly is more dresses up. These classic black heels are also from H&M. 
It it is colder, but you want to dress up, add tights. This also limits the skin you'll be showing. (You can also add a cardigan or a blazer for even less skin.) these t-strap heels are from PayLess. I love this one a lot! 
For a more casual and warmer outfit, I added this bright cardigan. This is perfect for spring when it is still a little chilly. 
I love this one. This maroon color is one of my favorites. This is a perfect version for fall when it's pretty cold. To wear it in winter, I would add tights and it would be great! 
Now for my favorite! I love using short dresses as shirts under skirts. I added this maroon skirt and a belt to define my waist. 
Let me know which version is your favorite, and any requests for future blogs!

Haul!

I recently went shopping and actually found things that I loved! Usually I have trouble finding things I like when I intend on buying something. I haven't done a haul in quite a while, so I'm going to show you what I bought on this trip! Most things I bought were on sale, so I hope you can still get them if you want. 
One of my favorite finds are these jeans! I just ripped the knee of my favorite pair and was in need of some new ones. 
These jeans from American Eagle are so soft and the perfect color. I have long legs (I'm 5'6") and so I often find it difficult to get jeans that are long enough. 
The fit is skinny, but has a relaxed fit at the bottom. I love wearing light colored jeans, and these ones are a perfect mix of light and regular wash. They were $24.99 but they were on sale for $19.99 and I had a coupon that made them only $15.44! 
Also from American Eagle, is this super cute fleece graphic. It features three feathers with "live your life". 
The sweater is a pretty pink/coral color. I love how soft it feels. It started as $24.99, was on sale for $14.99, and with my coupon it came out to be only $7.73! 
This shirt is from the newest Bethany Mota line at Aeropostale. It has a nice soft texture to it. 
The bottom has two rows of ruffles, and it is a racer back. 
This shirt is $18. I recently met Bethany Mota at a meet up. After the meet up, we all received a $10 gift card, so I got this shirt for only $8! 
I had almost bought a very similar shirt to this one from Forever 21, but they didn't have my size. I love lace and the contrast of this shirt. 
This shirt was also on sale at Rue 21. I ended up getting it for only $4.99! That is one thing I love about that store, their sales are crazy! 
I have been looking for a similar dress to this one for a while. However any one I did find was too short. Like I said, I'm tall and all legs, so dresses often look a long shorter on me that most people. 
It is just a simple black and white checked button up dress. I'm really excited to style this dress. 
I found this dress on sale at H&M for only $7. It is almost finger tip length (rarely happens). 
I also picked up some jewelry while I was shopping. 
The rings are from H&M. The necklaces are from Rue 21. 
There were three necklaces in a pack for $2. 
The midi rings came in a pack of 8 for $1. 

I some how happened onto a bunch of sales while out shopping. I hope you enjoyed seeing what I bought! Let me know if you've gotten anything lately! Also give me some ideas for future blog posts!

Valentine's Week

Oh Valentines day, my favorite holiday. I love this holiday so much, one day isn't long enough, so I celebrate the week of. (No, I'm never had anything close to a valentine date) to celebrate, I enjoy putting together a week's worth of valentines themed outfits and decorating my room. 
Small rant: this year valentines date is on a Saturday (not in school) and in addition, we don't have school that Friday, so I only have four outfits this year. 
I thought it would be more effective if I showed you these before valentines day so that you can draw inspiration from my looks. 
I love this outfit, and I've worn similar versions before. To add a feminine touch, I wore a lace shirt under the chambray one. I also love the belt worn here. 
The mixture of textures is my favorite thing about this outfit. 
Tuesday I will be leaving school early, so I wanted to wear something super casual and easy. 
Graphic sweaters like this one are such easy pieces to just pair with jeans and combat boots. These sweaters can be found really anywhere. This one is from TJMaxx. 
For a more girly look I went with this. I love the brightness of the skirt paired with this patterned top. 
I wore this outfit with my combat boots and added ivory socks peeking out. 
And now for my favorite! These wedges are so comfortable! I added ruffled socks under them. 
Last year I wanted to find heart printed tights but couldn't. I tried to make some, and that ended up being a disaster. So a few months ago when I saw these at Old Navy, I had to grab them! 
As for the rest of the outfit, I wore this peach pleated skirt with a chiffon shirt and a lace cardigan on top. 
Let me know if you love Valentine's day and what your plans are! I hope this offered you some ideas for your outfits this year!
