Outfit 1~ Sporty

Image
Hey fellow fashionistas! Time for my first style tribe outfit post!! Sporty!! I identify with a lot of style tribes. I have always been open to new tribes to try, but sporty is one tribe I have never identified with!! I did not feel educated enough on this tribe to show you guys an outfit...... but luckily my sister is very sporty! We had a chat on things she likes to wear, and the number one stereotype that the sporty tribe members deal with. So here we go.. let's start with the top 3 essentials for sporty. These are obviously not the only clothes you need, just a few staples key to this tribe. *Fitted Sport Jacket... Remember** Quality is very important, especially for a nice item like this. These can last a long time, and spending a bit more for high quality is okay. ( the North Face has super cute ones ) *Sneakers... These can range from so many things. Find a style that fits you and your personality. *A cute watch! This is a staple jewelry item... and it fits your go-to s...

Style Tribe Series- Intro

Image
Hey fellow fashionistas! It has been a long  time since my last post! I have been traveling, and finishing the end-of trimester assignments...... and there hasn't been a lot of time for blogging. But... I'm back! I have been so excited about this new series! I will be featuring outfits for every style tribe. I have gotten a lot of inspo from  Penny Chic  ... her book was so amazing! One thing it talked about was style tribes. I decided to recreate this into a series. I thought of some new style tribes... and switched out some I didn't find relevant. So.... here are my 6 style tribes of fashion with a brief explanation. *Classic- You like practical outfits with some fun flare. The good thing about "classics" is they never go out of style. *Sporty- You like clothes that are easy for on-the-go and still are put together. Go-to does not mean to give up the "chic." *Girly- Ruffles, Bows, peplum. Jk! You like things with lots of bells and whistles, and you...

Fall Recap

Image
Hey fellow fashionistas! I can't even believe winter is here?! I mean..... finding snow out your window is never pleasant. Let's just say.... I'm missing Fall!! Anyone else?? Basically, I've been in a blogging rut. No more fun fall backdrops...... only freezing snow!! I love taking pictures outside, the lighting always seems to be perfect. But now, if I go outside without major gear......I have frostbite!? It's insane......... So.. I thought I would bask in fall one last time. Here are some things I've been up to this fall! It's been a pretty busy season!! Volunteerism!  I discovered a lot of new organizations and volunteer opportunities this fall!! It always feels good to give back, and it sure helps your resume :)  (Above was getting ready for library book sale.... shelving!!)  Donuts!!  I've recently been going crazy over a local shop. They make any Friday morning so much better!! Frontenac State Park! This place is amazing. ...

And… it doesn't hurt that there's a lot of orange :) This cranberry beanie is found  here I love this beanie!  Beanies in general…. I mean comfy chic?! What better?? And… if you didn't brush your hair….you have the perfect cover up! This fantastic coat is from  Luii Clothing I have a serious obsession with fall coats….. soooo cute!! And the houndstooth lining totally makes the coat!! Rolling up the cuffs shows a bit of pattern!  Sorry… I could not find this specific coat online, but Luii Clothing has some other amazing coats on their website.  This bag is  Micheal Kors Let's just say I had a freak out when I found this at Marshalls for $60! This color is not on their website, but this st...

Monthly Must Haves

Image
Hey fellow fashionistas! Time for monthly must haves! At the end of each month, I will rave about my 10 favorite finds for the month! Hope you enjoy!! 1 & 2 (Hair favorites)  I have stick straight hair, and I can not stand it. Even after I wake up, my hair just sits straight. There is never any volume or texture. I have tried a lot of products to make my hair more voluminous. They never seem to work, and if they do it's only for a small window of time. I recently got a haircut, and my stylist recommended these products. I was hesitant after trying so many things that did not work...... but I decided to give them a try. After a few days of using these products, I could instantly start to see more volume. I love them!! The one on the left is for your ends. It doesn't really add volume, but it is important to always keep your ends strong...... Split ends will have an effect on your volume. You can find this  here The texture and root lift spray, (adds volume:) you can...
