Vacation Looks

Hey guys! I hope your week is off to a great start.

Last week, I shared my family’s trip to Hershey…most of the photos consisted of places we visited and the food I enjoyed…I wasn’t the best blogger on vacation haha. But I did manage to get a few shots of a few of my outfits to show what I wore on vacation.

It was a mix of casual/play clothes and a few dresses for dinner or walking around. Here’s a look at what I wore and where I got it from.

On our first full day I wore this outfit for mini golf and the park at night.

I got this graphic tee that says “Ciao Bella” from Gap in the spring and this trip was the first time I got to wear it. I love the soft material and since it’s white it can be worn with any solid pair of shorts, from pink, to blue, even white!

I decided to wear this shirt with blue eyelet shorts that I got from Old Navy. I also have them in white too, which I love! When I find something I love, I have no problem buying it in other colors.

In the morning, it was cool to start the day so I wore my jean jacket to keep me warm. My jean jacket is from Old Navy too!

I finished the look off with a pair of Nike sneakers.

Here’s a look with the same outfit with the jean jacket.

One of the night’s we went out to dinner on the property of the hotel. I got this dress last summer when we went away for a few days. I bought it from Old Navy. I love the bright colors and the island feel the dress gives.

Out to dinner outfit

My shoes are my favorite go-to nude wedges. I love to wear them dressing up sundresses or with a pair of capris and a blouse. I got them a few years ago from DSW.

The bright colors scream summer, it’s a light t-shirt dress, so the material is super soft too.

It was a bit chilly when we went out to dinner so I brought my jean jacket along.

Here’s how the outfit looks with the jean jacket. Since the dress is pattern, the solid jean jacket worked well.

Another night we went out to dinner and we dressed up a bit more. I got this pink dress pre-Covid so I couldn’t wait for an opportunity to wear it.

Here’s a look at the front

I got it from Marshall’s and there’s so many things that make it a great dress. First, the bright pink is perfect for summer. It’s a thinner material which makes it breathable in the summer months. It can be dressed up or down. I wore it with wedges out to dinner but I have also worn it to a best friend’s bridal shower for a more formal occasion. I also think this could work as a dress to wear at a wedding. I love the style, with the high neck and the buttons down the back is super classy.

And a look at the back

These were just a few looks from my vacation that I loved. I obviously wore more outfits out to the park and to dinner but these were some new looks and my favorites.

I also like to bring clothes that are staples that can be worn with different outfits. For example, bringing a jean jacket and wedges that can be worn with multiple outfits. It saves room in your suitcase and it allows you to be creative with your outfits.

What have been your go-to outfits for summer so far? What stores are you having luck at? Let me know below! Have the best rest of your week!

Look of the Day #131

LOTD

Hey everyone! 


I don’t know about you but I am ready for the holidays. It was so nice to be home for Thanksgiving and to relax and unwind with family, it was a busy but relaxing break. Now I have less than a week until I wrap up classes, finals, and then it’s graduation time. I can’t believe how fast this semester has gone. Truly, I have learned a lot both in and out of the classroom as well as about myself. 

One of my favorite things to do when I am home is get in some retail therapy, whether its’s clothes for work, school, or an occasion, I love seeing what’s new in the stores. I was home a few weeks back and was doing some browsing. I am always on the hunt for new work dresses. Old Navy was having a sale and I knew I had to stop in. I’m so glad I did, because I snagged this dress and it is going to be a must wear in my wardrobe especially for work  in the winter months. 

I wore this outfit for Thanksgiving and I loved how effortless it is, but it still looks put together.

The cut and style of the dress is a favorite of mine. The A-line gives the dress a flattering look. It is professional but also dressy. You can wear this dress to work or to a holiday gathering or office party. This dress is timeless especially with the black and white detailing. 

Due to the chiller weather, I opted for a short black sweater, also from Old Navy. This dress was originally short sleeve so I needed any extra layer and I was happy I chose it. I also made the decision for black tights and a short black heel. These heels are practical and still fashionable with the buckle. Not only are the cute, but also comfortable since they are from Kelly and Katie, I know I can depend on them. 

This will be a go-to outfit in my closet for the winter months. What are some essential outfits in your closet during the winter months?!

Happy Halloween everyone! No matter how old or young you are, I hope you take some time to celebrate Halloween today, whether it’s by dressing up, passing out candy, heading to a costume party or even just watching your favorite scary movie. Today is a fun day that should be filled all treats and no tricks. I will be heading to a fun Halloween dance tomorrow, so unfortunately, I can’t share my costume until next week. It will be worth the wait, I’m excited for this year’s costume, it inexpensive and easy to do at home. I can’t wait to share for next week.

 Now, before we get ahead of ourselves, here’s a new look for today’s look of the day. No matter the season, I always like to dress warm, even in the summer, I typically have a sweater with me. Long sleeves are my go-to. This outfit that I put together is perfect for heading to class for a presentation, a day in the office, a date night, or even Sunday mass. 

Full outfit

Let’s start with the dress. I got it from Old Navy and I love it so much I got it in gray and burgundy. The fabric is thin so you can wear it in any season, winter, spring, summer, and fall. I love cotton dresses, you can dress them up or down, pair it with boots and a jacket for a more casual look or dress it up with tights and heels. I also need to talk about the shape of it, it is loose and flows, so it fits any body type. For today’s look, I decided to go more for the dressier look.

Just the dress

I paired my gray dress with black tights and shoe boots. These shoe boots are from T.J. Maxx and are comfortable and durable. 

I also decided to add more black accents with a scarf and jacket. It was cooler when I was out and about wearing this, so I needed some extra warmth. But, without the black, the dress still works great on its own. 

I love wearing outfits that can be mixed and matched depending on the occasion. This dress was the perfect thing to wear as we head into the cooler months. How are you planning on getting ready for colder weather? 

One last look

I hope you all have a wonderful weekend and a spooktacular Halloween.

Look of the Day #120

Hey friends! It’s Thursday, I hope your week was filled with productivity and some fun. 

Although, we are in the midst of September, it doesn’t feel like fall yet, it’s still warm in the 70’s with some cooler air. I’m soaking up as much warm weather before it’s boots and sweaters. But, who am I kidding, I will be excited to start changing my wardrobe for the new season. Today’s outfit is one that is perfect for the pre-fall days. I have started wearing darker colors to get into the fall mood. 

Transitioning summer into fall

I have worn this top for more business casual outfits for the office, but I love how you can dress it down with a pair of jean capris and sandals. I got this blue beaded top from Francesca’s Boutique. I love the material and the gold accents. 

I decided to match this top with blue jean capris from Old Navy, my go to denim. I am thinking about adding a pair of skinny jeans to the mix this fall. 

Even though it is the end of fall/ beginning of fall, I am still wearing these cute gem sandals when I wear jeans or sundresses. 

This fall, I’m still wearing more neutral makeup as I am back to school. I loved the way my skin felt in the summer by wearing minimal makeup and I want to try and continue to do that in the fall. I am mixing in more darker hues and deeper pinks and plum colors in my lip color or eye shadow. By slowing adding darker colors into my makeup and wardrobe, I am getting into the fall mode.

All natural with a touch of pink for end of summer

As much as I am enjoying this warm weather, I will be happy when it’s all fall, all the time! Have a wonderful weekend and enjoy the changing weather!

Hi guys and gals!

We are almost to the weekend. I can’t believe we are already in the middle of July! Summer slow down! After the short week last week with the Fourth of July, I am back into a routine of summer. 

Today’s outfit is one that I’m very excited for! I firmly believe all girls should have a little black dress in the collection. It doesn’t have to be super fancy or flashy, but something simple and elegant, and can be worn for a date night, dressed up look, or office wear. 

Hello Little Black Dress

I got this little black dress from Old Navy on sale, I never would have guessed I would find this there, but I couldn’t be happier with my purchase!

I opted for an all black look. I wore a high black heel, not only to make my legs look longer (haha) but also to make the dress more formal. I wear these for formal occasions, and got this pair at Marshalls! 

I then opted for add a monogrammed clutch from Marley Lilly to the ensemble. 

Everyone loves a monogram

The outfit is put together and can be worn to so many places without breaking the bank. As a college student transitioning to young adult life, I believe you can look good and put together without breaking the bank. If you look good, then you will feel good!

Spinning into the weekend

Where’s your favorite place to wear a little black dress?

Look of the Day #93

Hi All! I can’t believe my trip overseas is almost over! I will be sharing everything about my time away when I come back, until then I have an easy look of the day. I didn’t even plan on making this a look of the day but after I put it all together I couldn’t resist making this into a post. This outfit is pretty typical of what I wear to class on an average day. Some days, I dress it up, others are more casual but jeans, a fun shirt, sweater, and boots are pretty standard for the winter months. Let’s get to the details!

Casual and practical

In this outfit, I am wearing my go to straight jeans from Old Navy. I wear these at least once a week (one of the reasons I talk about them so much), they are long lasting, durable, and so versatile that I feel I can wear them with anything. For example, because they are a straight cut jean I can easily wear them with a high heeled boot with no discomfort through the day. I have been getting so much use out of these boots this fall and winter. The heel isn’t too high, so I can wear them often, but they also really dress up an outfit. I got mine from DSWand they were a total game changer. I highly recommend going at the end of season to get the best deals for clothes, shoes, and accessories for next season. 

Up close of the shirt and sweater

I always like to stock up on neutral long and short sleeve shirts for the seasons. I typically go with white and black but every once in a while I like to change it up with stripes or more colors. I got this V-Neck long sleeve shirt from GAPafter Christmas and it was on sale for $8-major score! I had an older black and white stripped shirt that needed to be retired so I was more than happy to get a new one in my collection. Lastly, anyone we knows me, knows that I am always cold, even in the summer I have a sweater with me. I saw this cardigan on sale at Old Navyand I knew I had to get it. It was also on sale and I have utilized it so much since I got it. I have worn it more with professional looks but I like how it looks dressed down. Also, although it may seem like this is a sponsored post by Gap or Old Navy, I swear it isn’t. I just really like their clothes and I wear them often!

The whole outfit put together

I was really happy with how this outfit came out, like I said I was not planning on even making this into a post hence the mirror picture, but once I saw it all together I knew I had to document it. I can’t wait to be back to blogging next week sharing all about my trip.

Until then, have a great weekend!

Hi Guys!

Happy Thursday or TGIT, am I right?!

I’m so ready for the weekend! I’m heading home for the weekend for a much needed break and vacation. I’m doing some traveling over Spring Break, so I won’t be home then, therefore, I am taking a weekend off to spend time with family and relax. More on my spring break adventures next week! Not only am I looking forward to seeing family but also for the Oscars! Is anyone planning on watching?! Awards season is my favorite time of year! Haha! 

Now, moving on to today’s look of the day. The weather this month has been all over the place, some days it’s cold and snowy, other days its warm and rainy, it has been such weird weather to dress for. This outfit is perfect for these weird days, warm for cold mornings but cool for warm afternoons. Let’s get to the details. 

Warm and cozy for February

I’m wearing my go-to jeans with this outfit, my regular straight legged jeans get so much use in the fall and winter. I love how you can wear them with shoe boots, heels, or flats. So versatile! I got my pair from Old Navy, no better place to get affordable jeans. I decided to pair them with my black leather shoe boots. These shoe boots are from Marshalls from several years ago, they are so comfortable and can go with so many things. 

Cooler outfit for the warmer weather

This top is one of my favorite things to wear in my wardrobe when I need a change in the winter. I got this top from Francesca’s Boutique. I shared this top in a dressier outfit here. Today’s outfit is more casual. I love how the top can dress up an outfit, also it works great for transitional weather. 

I decided to accessorize this outfit with the gold and blue drop earrings which are a simple accessory but add a lot to an outfit. 

Up close of the earrings and blouse

This blue wool coat is worn on repeat in the winter months. I got this coat from Old Navy and it is perfect to wear with an all blue outfit or for a more of a dressier outfit. This scarf is also the perfect accessory for this blue winter coat. I got this scarf for Christmas and I love how warm and soft it is and the colors of pink, white, and blue work great with the blue jacket. 

Scarf and coat details

I love how these are all unique pieces but they work together. I hope this gives you some inspiration for mixing and matching pieces for the transitional weather.

 I hope you have a great weekend. See you next Tuesday!

Look of the Day #62

Hi All!

Today, I have another fun summer outfit for you all to enjoy today. This outfit is perfect for a day OUT of the office, at the park, at a picnic, or just going for a walk. I love the color scheme I have planned for today. Let’s jump in with the details.

A new day, a new outfit

First, you may recognize this top. I got it from Francesca’s Boutique a few years back, but it is a staple in my summer collection. I have worn it to work and dressed it up with capris or dress pants, but I have also found myself dressing it down with a pair of shorts. The material is satin which really dresses up this basic short set. The back is my favorite part! I love the details in the tuxedo bows that line the back. It’s details like these that I adore about pieces from Francesca’s!

Savoring summer

Speaking of the shorts, how cute is this mint green color?! I love the contrast between the teal and black. I got these shorts from Old Navy. As you know by now, I am a fan of Old Navy’s clothes. Their shorts are a favorite of mine. I really appreciate the length of the shorts and how they fit. I am not a fan of short-shorts. This length is perfect for a blouse or t-shirt.

I chose these dressy sneakers for the outfit for today. I was planning on walking around a lot and I needed a reliable shoe. This style of shoe is in style right now. I got my pair from Target for under $20! But, I have seen other major retailers selling them for much more. I love the design and fabric and I like how it doesn’t look like a sneaker but rather a closed toe shoe. Plus, I love how well they match with the green and black.

Thoughts on the dressy sneaker?! I am wearing them constantly this summer!

To finish of the outfit, I knew I needed something for the sold top, I decided to go with a mint green bold necklace from Old Navy to tie the whole outfit together. If you are out and about, consider grabbing a large hat like mine to keep the sun out of your face. I got this big hat from DSW, but I have seen them in many other retailers.

A bold necklace to dress up this top

That’s a peak into my closet. Next week, I am going away for a few days, but I will still be blogging. Follow me on Instagram to keep up with my latest adventure.
