Tim Burton Stripes
I must be on some sort of Tim Burtonesque spree because lately I’ve just been wearing black, black with white, or black with more black. I’ve always been a Tim Burton fan ever since Beetlejuice and Nightmare before Christmas and of course you readers can probably tell I love stripes. This vertical striped top made me want to pair it with some kooky spiral glasses and maybe a top hat (if I had one), but I went with a pencil…

Two Looks, One Shirt
I know people say that every good closet needs it’s “10 basic pieces” that you could revolve your entire wardrobe around, but I’ve never been one for “basics”. I love patterns, textures, and out of the ordinary clothes. But ever since I got this off-white silk collared shirt from Club Monaco, I knew that this could potentially be one of my “basics” if I ever decided to put that list together. It’s not only super comfortable, but versatile as any white…

White Tails
I’ve recently been on a hunt for blazers and came across this fun Leifsdottir “Last Call” blazer while browsing around Anthropologie.

It’s interesting how even though we all went our separate ways, we have one big thing in common – a love for fashion. And I love that we all bring different things…

Bandaged Up
I’m not exactly sure why they call these things “bodycon” or sometimes “bandage” skirts. Is it because you’re supposed to be self-conscious of your body in this tight fitting skirt? Or that you feel bandaged like a mummy? I am extremely picky about these type of skirts considering they can be incredibly revealing. Generally, I try to make sure they are 1) high in fabric quality, meaning they are somewhat thick and sturdy or stiff 2) have interesting textures or…

In the Navy
There is something about stripes that makes them perfect for any season. However, there is something about navy and white stripes that makes them timeless. Even though this color combo will always fall under the “nautical” look in the fashion world, there seem to be a million ways to mix things up every year to make the look even more modern. Take for example this hi lo dress that mixes classic stripes with this season’s latest hemline. I love that…
