Outfit Post: Floral & Leopard

H&M Floral Cropped Trouser (old - super cutesy option here)

Vintage Metallic Tee (pretty gunmetal option)

Target Leopard Loafers (old - love this version at Nordstrom)

Daisy Gem "Gunmetal Fleur" Necklace c/o

GiGi New York All In One Clutch in Sand (gifted) || Caravelle by Bulova Watch c/o (sold out - updated version and on sale!!!)  || BCBGeneration #MYO Affirmation Bracelets c/o Belk || Maybelline "Electric Orange" lipstick

I don't know about you but the Floral & Leopard combo will never get old to me. I just love how girly yet edgy it can look at the same time. Plus it's an easy thing to throw on when you're pressed for time getting dressed in the morning. You'll still look polished and put together and no one will know it only took you 2 minutes to figure it out! 

Okay, you guys know how much I love a statement necklace. Lately, I've been looking for a crystal option that was slightly less overpowering yet not as dainty as my monogram options. This DaisyGem version was the perfect mix of both worlds. It's just the right amount of  in-between sparkle I needed. DaisyGem also just announced their new Gem Rewards program which gives you rewards when you shop! For ever $1 you spend you get 1 point. Once you reach 100 points, you get a $10 gift card! And DaisyGem has graciously decided to give you a jump start by giving new and already registered accounts 50 points which means you're already 1/2 way there!

So tell me.. what are your favorite prints to mix? You can shop my favorite combo below. Happy Monday!

Outfit Post: Neon Floral Print Crop Pants

photos taken by Ashley

Target Neon Floral Trousers (exact - sold out in stores)

Target Crop Top (old - similar style at Macy's and identical version at BooHoo)

Zara Sandals (old - similar style here)

Jennifer Zeuner Cursive Nameplate Necklace in Rose Gold (exact)

Chanel Sunglasses borrowed from Hallie (similar style at Piperlime)

I totally forgot about these pictures that I took during my trip to LA in April! Thankfully when I was uploading some photos yesterday I came across them.

The truth is, I think they got lost in the shuffle because I was hesitant to post these. One: because wearing a crop top and then having your photo taken in one are two totally different things. This outfit was so much fun and even though it's more stomach than I usually show (even for this crop top lover) I still loved it. Two: These pants are from.... the kids section of Target. Yes, I have to admit that sometimes I shop from the kids section at stores. I mean sometimes they just have the cutest stuff! And since I'm so short and petite they can actually fit better. That doesn't mean I buy everything from there. But an item or two here and there doesn't hurt anyone - especially my wallet (ummmm... kids prices are amazing)

Now that I've got that secret off my chest - let's move on! And don't worry.. I found a pair of neon print pants that you can actually find in the adult section of a store. I promise! Happy Tuesday everyone!

#TargetStyle: Fresh Floral Prints



For my last and final #TargetStyle post we're discussing.... Florals! I know - it seems so cliché... a flower print for spring? But it really is that fabulous! Prints are an easy and super chic way to update your wardrobe and Target let's you do it on a major budget! Which means you can get several pieces in this flirty and fresh take on an "oldie but a goodie" Let's take a look at some of my favorite flowered Target finds:

Floral Print Jeans // Floral Print Scarf  // Floral Print Shirt // Floral Umbrella // Floral Print Tote // Floral Printed Rain Jacket  // Floral Print Swim Top & Bottom

 

How fun are these items? I am totally drooling over that floral print button down - perfect for layering or mixing prints. And you'll be the hit at your next pool party or beach getaway in a bright and sassy swimsuit. What's that saying.. April Showers bring May Flowers? Well I say take on April showers with flower print options like this umbrella or rain jacket.

 

With all this fickle weather (back & forth, back & forth) I say we take the lead and start Spring off on the right foot with colorful and chic floral prints. Tell me... are you into floral prints right now? If so, how are you wearing them?

Don't forget to check out my other fabulous #TargetStyle picks like these polka dot outfits or my favorite vacation sandals! Happy Thursday everyone! xo

It’s Time for Springtime.

I'm a super bad blogger. Like the worst. I was so excited to be in New York, attend the conferences, meet new people, go to parties etc... that I literally took actual pictures of 1 outfit. ONE! I swear, I must deserve some sort of blogger citation or something...

 

Anyways... Remember my quest for a Topshop peplum? Well I came up a winner with this ribbed black version and knew it would pair perfectly with my fav floral pants! And if you follow me on instagram you know I'm wearing my very special gift from my Fairy Godfathers. I love the ladylike top and pant combo with the playfulness of these red/purple sunglasses. It's all about having fun with your look ladies! Just enjoy your clothes and don't be afraid to experiment or try new things.

 

My lovely friend Amanda snapped these for me before my meeting with GiGi New York on her roof! The view was amazing and I'm so happy she suggested it for our little photo sesh. I also cannot wait to share my GiGi trip with you! I got a full on factory tour and met with some awesome people. Stay tuned for that post coming up along with more snapshots from NYC! xoxo

Outfit Post: Desert Flowers

{Floral Trousers: Zara [recent]; Tank: Forever 21 [old]; Shoes: Sole Society Ashley; Purse: J. Crew [last Christmas]; Watch: ASOS; Jewelry: F21, H&M, Vintage; Sunnies: Vintage; Nails: OPI Friar Friar Pants on Fire}

I just love The Desert. There's something about it that brings you an instant peace and calm as soon as you pull into the drive. The air is sweeter, the food tastes better, the people are nicer. It's such a special retreat from the busy bodies in Los Angeles. It's an added bonus that we have the greatest hosts in the world in Dana & Steve. This last trip I swear I gained 5 pounds from all the fun we had (not joking)

I scored these Zara floral trousers online back in March. I figured a contrasting "dry" backdrop was the perfect place to break them out. They're quite a bit different from the cropped H&M ones seen here but still lovely. Plus these bright pink pumps bring out the baby pink found in pants.

Happy Friday Loves - Cheers to the weekend! xoxo

Outfit Post: April Flowers

Floral Pants: H&M (new - here)

Shoes: Sole Society

Pink Sunglasses: Vintage

Jewelry: Marc by Marc Jacobs, Forever 21, my own;

Hair Pin: Forever 21;

Lips: Revlon "Siren"

I'm so excited to finally break out my brand new H&M Floral pants! I wrote about them at the beginning of March and could not wait to track them down. Tey the perfect way to add a burst of energy to your look. Since they hit right at my ankle I wanted to go for a retro-modern vibe. I pinned my hair back and wore my favorite pair of sunglasses (they're pink!) but kept the rest of my look current with layered necklaces and bright blue pumps.

It wasn't until we finished taking the photos that we realized we were actually surrounded by flowers in every shot...! Hope you have a lovely Tuesday! xoxo
