Sketches


Hey guys :) These are some of my fashion sketches! I love sketching, and I made these sketches lately and decided to share them with you. My two favorite are the one above this, with the coral dress, and the one below.


I have fallen in love with these type of shirts, with cutouts on the shoulder. I also love the turquoise color. Too bad I can't wear them to school...



....Yes, school. My freedom of summer ends in about a week! The fun part is going back to school shopping, who doesn't like that? :) Soon I'll be doing a post on some outfits I got.

Which outfit is your favorite? Let me know in a comment!

Hey guys! So today I tried Sally Hansen Salon Effects. They are nail polish strips that stick onto your nails. You press them onto your nail, file them to fit your nails, and you have an instant manicure! They come in tons of designs. I love them! I tried out this black and white pattern, called Houndstooth.


I recommend these for everyone who likes nail art. It truly looks like you got a manicure!! You can find these at stores like Walgreens and CVS.



 Here is a photo of some of the designs. :) They have designs that you could use for lots of events. Try the lime green for a day at the pool! Or if your going to a party, try the hot pink or black lace. Try the blue if you just want something simple. They're an easy and  inexpensive way to change up your nails! Have fun!

1 shirt 3 ways!

Hey guys! So I'm going to be showing you how to wear this shirt from Forever21 three ways. The shirt itself is more of a romantic and girly floral shirt, but I transformed it into 3 different looks!

                                  Wearing your hair in a side braid can change an outfit! It'll give it a more girly vibe. :)


As you can see, just adding a thick brown woven belt makes this outfit more bohemian. With the side braid and a cute flower necklace, you can totally change the style of this shirt!

                 Add a sweater in a color that will  compliment the shirt, like white. :)
              If you want to show off the shirt more, leave it unbuttoned.

Take away the sweater if it's a little warmer out, like below. Notice how just adding a sweater can make this shirt perfect for cooler months.


 Practically any brown boots would look super great with this shirt. I'm wearing some knee high, wedge, light brown boots that I love!


For days when the weather's just perfect, Not too hot or cold!



           Wearing light wash jeans give this outfit a more casual and boho look. Wood bangles are great bracelets to add to a boho outfit with lots of brown in it. They finish the outfit!

                              
                   Here is a close up of a crocheted shrug. Crochet is a big trend right now, and will continue into the fall!                              




I hope this post helps you guys create lots of great outfits! :) If you want me to see your outfit, just let me know your blog link and i'll make sure to see it. Please tell me what you thought of this post in a comment! Thanks! :)

 Hey guys! For those of us that live in the US, we just celebrated the 4th of July. I thought I would share with you how my night went....

  We decided to go to our country club to watch the fireworks! We were going to go for a swim before they started. I wore a super cute red ruffle shirt, that I got from Wet Seal. I paired it with some denim shorts from Target, and some strappy sandals from Rue 21. :)


                                  

                                      For my shoes, I wore some multi-colored strappy sandals.


                 And for my jewelry, I'm just wearing some simple beaded bracelets and my Pandora bracelet.

  The night didn't go as planned though... It started to thunder, so the pool was closed! We still had a few hours untill the fireworks started! 

   Since we couldn't swim, we just wandered around inside for a LONG time. Yeah, it was kind of boring! Finally the storm cleared up, and we got to go swimming. Look at the view we had!!
 Finally, it got late and there was such a pretty sunset! We got to watch the fireworks and the night worked out great! What did you guys do for you're 4th of July? I'd love to hear your stories, so just leave me a comment below! Thanks! :)

Hey guys! This is my first post, so wish me luck! In a bit, i'm going on a vacation. My family and i are going to stay in a beach house at the beach for a week, so I've been thinking- What should i pack? Well, packing is a breeze for a vacation to the beach! Here are some essential pieces-
  Not in any order...
1. Sundresses are a must! You can keep cool and stay stylish!

                       2. Swim suit- Of course the most important piece to pack is you're swim suit. Either playing in the ocean or bathing in the sun, you're swim suit is another must!
 
3. Flip flops or Sandals- The last thing you want is for you're feet to be killing you in you're heels on you're vacay! Pack some cute flip flops or comfy sandals!
  4. A Cute hat- Whether it's a fedora or floppy hat, you'll look stylish and pretty while keeping sun out of you're face! 

5. Shorts- If you're not wearing a sundress,  and you don't want to get to fancied up in a skirt..... Shorts are great for days wear you don't feel like getting too dressed up!
