J.Crew Navy Checked Button-down



My shirt from J.Crew came in the mail today! I tried this on at the J.Crew Factory store, but they didn't have my size (small). Clearly that meant it was a popular item. It felt like such a staple piece to add to my closet, so I had to have it. The navy checked color can almost look black, making it quite a neutral piece. It's a thinner, less bulky button down than others that I've tried on so it's perfect to wear with layers, such as a comfy sweater in winter. I plan to try that ootd soon since a little gingham is too cute to resist! A sweater will also help when pairing with jeans to reduce the "navy on navy" look and leggings to avoid the awkward "navy and black" confrontation. I'll post an outfit as soon as wear it!

XOXO

{Day Three} 6 Days of Denim

Image
The third outfit of the series is perfect for lunch on hot day. It's cute and a decorative tank and shorts will help keep you cool!   //Tank top (old)- American Eagle//Shorts- American Eagle //Sandals- Jack Rogers //Sunnies- Forever 21, DIY//Necklace (old)- Forever 21//   These shorts are the perfect length. They're also the only pair I bought without any rips in them!   The blush pink "lace knit" tank is a perfect pair with these shorts! The color keeps it neutral while the design has all the flair.   I got my first pair of Jack Rogers sandals this summer! I could write a whole post on just these shoes, but I've contained my love for now. The platinum color is one of the best for a first pair- it goes with almost everything.   A close up of my sunnies! I love the nod to 50's sunglasses with the slight cat eye shape. Also, I added the flowers on myself (DIY!!). While they're not my most often worn pair of sunglasses, the...

New Year, Same Me

Image
Quick throwback to 3 years ago when I started this blog! And … back to the present. People always have lots to say when this new beginning rolls around. A chance to start fresh, be productive, and to reinvent your image. I say, scrap it. The world seems to be in agreement that 2016 was the closest we’ve been to hell on earth. However, life is just a continuation. Unless you’re one of those cute, little babies with a January 1, 2017 birthday, nothing much has really changed. Here's to more blurry pictures and good times  For as many people read this blog, this post is as much to hold myself accountable as to give advice to the world from my point of you. Here’s the big idea: don’t change, just be a better you. That doesn’t mean you need to go on a juice cleanse and hit up the gym more, or put a little more effort in getting ready, or even reading double the usual amount of books. I’m just saying take care of yourself a little more. Capture the moment with Fujifilm Ins...

Cards Against Humanity with a Twist

Image
My friend Sarah came over last night so we could watch the One Direction movie, This Is Us, which came out last year. She still hadn't seen it! Not only that, but we decided to play Cards Against Humanity . It's a card game that requires four people or more if you really want to get the laughs going.     With only the two of us, we took a little advice from our favorite YouTubers! Hannah Hart (feat. Jenna Marbles) and  Connor Franta (feat. Tyler Oakley) dubbed a new, two person version of this game: Charades Against Humanity. I think this might be better than the original intention of the game. I couldn't decide whether it was more fun to act out or guess crazy ridiculous things! We took cues from the YouTubers such as "overall concept", "sounds like", and other charade gestures. It really helped that we had both seen the videos, so we knew what the other was aiming for.     My experience with the normal way of playing CAH is somew...
