Reinvented

Wearing: Dress (worn as shirt and vest) A.L.C | Jeans J Brand | Flats Kurt Geiger

So I decided to take this amazing dress (that I got for a major steal on The Outnet) and switch it up a little by wearing it as a top and vest. I love this look because it creates a cool tone on tone effect that is all one color but somehow doesn't fall flat at all. And it takes the dress to a more casual level, which means I'll get even more wear out of it. I think I may even like this as a top and vest better than as a dress..

Wearing: Jeans 7 For All Mankind | Tee Aritzia | Sneakers 10 Crosby Derek Lam

This has become one of my go-to outfits. It's a simple formula of boyfriend jeans, a tee, and slip-on sneakers. I've stepped it up a notch with these brand new sneakers. I had been admiring them for a while now and I just finally bought them. And of course, all my outfits always look better when one of my dogs sneaks into the picture.

A Bit Boho

Jeans Aritzia | Blouse Aritzia | Shoes Vince

The perfect vintage-inspired denim and this boho blouse make for the perfect casual Friday look. While both are pretty unlike most items in my closet I instantly fell in love with both. Maybe its the excitement of the two music festivals in my future (Firefly and Lollapalooza), or maybe its the invasion of 70's inspired looks, but I've definitely been leaning towards more boho pieces lately. So while it may be the first, it most likely won't be the last boho look I wear this spring.

Keep It Casual

Wearing: Jeans Frame Denim | Tank Sen | Jacket A.L.C., Similar | Shoes Vince

The sun has finally come out and I'm so excited to finally get to wear something other than the same few sweaters that I had been wearing over and over again as winter dragged on. One of the things I'm most excited to wear are ripped jeans. I have managed to amass quite a few pairs of ripped denim over the past month or so, including this exact pair in two different colors. (Here they are in white) In my defense, I do wear denim almost every single day, and this pair is so comfortable it only made sense to have them in white and blue (shopaholic excuses). Anyway, I love the ease of ripped denim with simple basics for a casual look. And I also love how the knotted detail at the bottom of the shirt adds a little something extra to an otherwise plain white tank. Plus its also made of the world's softest material, no exaggeration.

The Look | Laced Up

Currently a little bit obsessed with the lace-up neckline and searching for the perfect lace-up piece to add to my own wardrobe. Check out some of my favorite pieces below:

Fringe Benefits

Jeans J Brand | Tee Rag & Bone | Jacket SW3 | Shoes Kurt Geiger, Similar, Similar

Over the past few months I have slowly seen suede and fringe begin to takeover my Instagram feed. I was reluctant at first, but not all I want is to wear all those 70's trends (although I'm still not giving in to flared jeans). So when I found this jacket it checked off everything I wanted. I get the (faux) suede and fringe details in a style that still looks modern and is super easy to wear. Thrown over a tee it adds some fun movement to an otherwise basic outfit. 

Music Monday | Can't Deny My Love

I'm a huge fan of The Killers, (let's be real, When You Were Young was totally my go-to guitar hero song) they're probably one of my favorite bands. So, it's no surprise that I would also love lead singer  Brandon Flowers' new single. It's a cool sound that's different from that of The Killers, but I like it. His new album comes out on the 18th and I'm definitely excited to hear more.
