Trendy Thursdays- Floral Prints!!


In my opinion, floral prints have become more popular than usual this year. I have always loved this type of look because it is so feminine and elegant but the prints are so major right now that I am more obsessed than ever! I always think of the line from the Devil Wears Prada...



Meryl Streep's character Miranda straight faced proclaims, "Florals, for Spring... Groundbreaking". I know this isn't a groundbreaking trend, but it is more popular than previous years in my opinion!



You can dress up or down floral prints, you can wear it as separates or as a full dress. Here it is seen on the runways looking as elegant as ever.



You may have noticed that this seasons floral prints are more bold than ever before. Use this towards your advantage and really shine this summer. Do not be afraid to incorporate this trend into your look in whatever aspect you can think of. For a few weddings I am going to I will be rocking floral print, but I have also found that it is great to transitions these pieces to the office in various ways.


Now to the fun part-- lets get shopping!!



This dress is from H&M and can be purchased here. This look can be worn with a denim jacket on those cooler summer nights  and even with a shoe such as these. You could always go classic and pair a blazer and nude shoes with this look as well. The great thing about H&M is that if they have one lovely pattern they usually utilize it in other ways such as this print in a great tank top! For $12.00, can you really beat that deal!??
Slacks look amazing in this floral print as well. Especially if you pair them with a neutral top and some denim. This is a great look that can go from the office during the day to dinner at night. The below pair is made by J. Crew and unfortunately no longer available anywhere. This is a total shame because I badly wanted to buy them! However, you can get a similar pair from H&M for $15.00. I absolutely love and own the below pair and get many compliments on them. Since it is Summer, I have been wearing a white, gray or cream color shirt to lighten up all the black.

Lastly, why not transition some floral into your bathing suits this summer. 


One of the cutest bathing suits I found was this great one piece J. Crew suit. One piece suits are also back in a big way- just FYI. This suit is thankfully available for purchase!!

Hopefully this post will help you navigate the floral waters this Summer! I know I will be incorporating as much floral print as I can until the fall!

If you have any photos of you looking fab in floral, please upload to my Instagram page!! You can find the link to the left of the blog post.


Until next time fashion friends,

Wedding Wednesday- Best Dresses to Wear to a Summer Wedding

Wedding season is upon us and if your like me, you have just started going to all the weddings of the season! My inspiration for this post came from  Elle Magazine . They did an amazing article on the best looks to wear to a wedding and it got me thinking about wanting to give my readers some tips and highlight a few looks for these special days. Weddings are a lot of fun to go to and you always want to look your best for when you are seeing your friends and family! Here are a few rules to get you started: 1) No cream or white-- Please do not be that one person all the others are giving dirty looks to because you wore an all white look to a wedding. I think having cream or white come through in your look in some way is totally great, especially in these summer months. However, just don't have your entire dress be white. I have seen this done before and its not well received. 2) Pay attention to what the invitation says the attire will be-- If the invitation says blac...

Trendy Festival Wear - 2016

Hello there to my favorite readers! Festival season is now officially upon us. One thing I noticed this year is that the fashion retailers are advertising specifically to the festival goer, making it easier than ever to find your perfect look. It doesn't seem like it has changed too much since last year, besides there is even more of a 70's vibe mixed with the 90's in these looks. However, we still have the obvious staples -- the  headbands, the crop tops and the ripped jeans.

Dressing Diaries- ASOS Sheath Dress

It's about that time to start another reoccurring series entitled Dressing Diaries . I thought it would be fun to give you a peak into how I style myself and how some of my favorite looks come together. Start of dressing process:  Very late at night, the day before an event (nothing like a fair amount of procrastination), I always ask my sweet  fiancĂ©   to take a picture of my outfit. By the time I get to the pictures, I have narrowed down the look to two or three different choices. PS- this is a really good tip if you haven't tried it before.  I know that sounds funny, but in todays world where there are so many pictures taken its important for you to be able to visualize the final look so you aren't left disappointed. It is also good to be able to see what shoes look best and what accessories complete the ensemble.  Completion of dressing process : I went with nude lace up heels (you can find something similar to purchase here ) and opted...
