Neon + Floral = Perfection

I feel like you all can tell when I've done a little Toggery haul, obviously I recently visited and found some amazing new pieces. My favorite so far of all my visits is this amazing neon flower print top from J-Crew! The neon is so bold and fun, but since it's dainty flowers, the top can be worn for many occasions. I figured for the Easter holiday a nice fun floral would be perfect. Today was my first day off all week, so Aaron and I are making a delicious brunch at home and watching Netflix. This outfit, delicious brunch, and quality time with Aaron and Penny is pretty much the perfect Sunday. 

Happy Easter!

Pinspired: Fur love

Today's Pinspired post is a simple chic look that's really set off by using a hoodie under a fur vest. This simple trick makes the look much more accessible for an every day look. This epic fur vest can sometimes feel a little "too much" for a casual dinner, but this look is perfect for just that! Topping it all off with a fluffy bun and there you have it, a fun, simple, casual, pinspired look.

Backstage pass

If I could go back and interview anyone in the world dead or alive, I'd gun it to the 60's and have a good ol' sit down with the Fab Four, the Beatles! In my dream, we are in the flat featured in their film Help, just chilling out in their grass pit. I would have a million questions, but probably wouldn't be able to utter one of them. I'm a Beatles fan, to say the least, so for this "backstage" look I opted for yet another Beatles tee. Since one must try to appear professional, I threw on my trusty blazer and decided to rock to half bun! All I need is a backstage pass, this outfit, and a Delorian and I'm all set! 

Who would you love to meet?

Beanie Style

It really doesn't get any better than some troopa boots and a classic beanie. I love getting the chance to rock a super cool look like this. This style is not my typical look, but I love going out of the box and staying on trend. There is the added bonus that it's freezing and wearing a hat is just plain necessary, but this fun oversized beanie keeps me hip (although saying hip does not). I paired this with a cute floral infinity scarf and picked up the blue of the hat. Keeping with the hipster vibe, this pair of troopa boots are an oldie, but a goodie! I got these in college and still get compliments every time I wear them. The greatest thing about this look is that I'm warm and comfortable!

Doily chic

You gotta love when an item in your closet reminds you of a doily, that must be fashion! This super cute long line cardigan is from Forever 21 and perfectly enough, it can be used as a table runner in a pinch! This entire outfit is made up of pieces I often want to wear, but find difficult to style. This cardigan is super cute, but can be difficult to pair. My tom's wedges are the same, partially because they make my feet look extra small and the color, although neutral, is not my typical shoe color. I think everyone has something in their closet they love, but don't wear because it's hard to be inspired! 

Get inspired everyone and wear that great piece or two!

Check me out!

Headed out for a fun filled day of brunch and birthday celebrations! For the afternoon, I opted for some comfy layers to stay warm. I love button ups, because of their versatility! I can easily wear this blue check button up under a sweater for work or I can dress it down for a day like today! 

Have a wonderful Saturday!

White petals and rose accents

I got to spend some quality time with my mom yesterday at our two favorite places...On the Border and the mall! Well, actually we opted to be near the mall at Barnes and Noble, because we realized we'd lose our freaking minds at the mall this time of year. I am closing in on all my Christmas gifts for everyone, which is a real improvement since the Check incident of 2013. I love giving gifts and I find myself getting so excited when I come up with a great idea for someone! I like to get gifts that are part practical and part sentimental. The truly 'gifted' (hah) gift giver in our family is my brother. He has an unmatched talent for finding these obscure, yet perfect gifts for all different types of people. It's really quite annoying. Haha. 

What's your gifting style?

Double Take

You know when you get a new item of clothing and you seem to find ways to wear it all the time! That's how I feel about this free people sweater. I love the feel, look, and style of it so I've been trying to find new ways to wear it. I'm loving this look layered over a long line button up! I like adding a bit of detail with the collar and top it off with a collar necklace too! I struggled with a shoe pairing (per usual) because these jeans aren't true skinny jeans, so they look too bunchy with boots and my booties just weren't working! Sometimes a good ol' flat does the trick!

Do you obsess over new items?
