Fiesta Dress

Back at it today with another off the shoulder (OTS) dress! Pretty sure half of my closet now consists of OTS dresses and tops. I'm praying this trend never goes out of style because I'm in love with it. Its flattering on everyone and is so versatile - dressy, casual, you name it...there's an OTS outfit for that.

This dress is a new favorite. I'm a sucker for embroidery and this dress has it all! The perfect chambray color (neutral enough to wear with anything) and the prettiest floral detailing. And we can't forget the cute little sleeves! I love a good ruffle. This one is from my friends over at Chicwish and you can grab this dress here! I added some of my go-to accessories. Everyone needs a good floppy hat. If you don't have one yet, go get one! You won't regret it. And of course I can't go anywhere without my purse. So when I was styling this look - I reached for my all time favorite, a simple brown cross body! Goes with any outfit, is easy to wear and has enough storage to hold the essentials.

Easy Layering

It's no secret that I love chambray. Pretty positive it's my all time favorite closet staple - it goes with absolutely everything and you can style it in each season. This is one of the most versatile outfits in my closet and I get compliments every time I wear it!

This linen shirt dress from J.Jill is super soft and comfy (as is everything at J.Jill) and is the PERFECT length for all of us tall girls. I'm 5'10 and it's incredibly hard to find dresses that are long enough and this one hits right above the knee. Fair warning, I find J.Jill to run a little on the big side, so I always order a size down unless I want it fairly oversized. I layered it with my go-to jean jacket - I'm 100% going through a jean jacket addiction phase, if you haven't already noticed. And I grabbed the matching chambray hat to top it all off, because why not? Layering is an easy way to get that "effortlessly cool" look while still staying comfy!

Winter Blues

Over the years, I've found vests to be one of the most versatile pieces in my wardrobe. You can layer them over (almost) anything and they're an easy item to grab on the way out if you think you'll get chilly later. Most of the vests I currently have are puffer vests, but once I saw this vest from Evy's Tree, I knew it needed to join my collection (and it's on SALE!).

This vest is more chic than all of the other vests I own. And bonus - it's navy and brown, which makes it the perfect neutral for any outfit; but it also has a fun plaid pattern lining the inside to add an interesting statement! I chose to keep my outfit fairly neutral with a denim on denim look, but this vest would look great styled with a skirt, sweater and OTK boots or a long sleeve dress and some tights this winter!

Farewell to Summer

Summer might officially be over, but it's still 90 degrees here in Arkansas. So here's my (possibly) last summer outfit! I have officially become romper addicted. They are SO easy, no matching pieces, no worries about a gust of wind flying your dress up - just throw it on and go. This chambray one from Gap has quickly become my favorite! It's neutral and goes with absolutely anything. So of course I topped it off with my all-time favorite military vest, and Keds (you're shocked...I know). Shop this look below!

Twiggy Mod

I'm officially about to start my 4th week in graduate school and can I just say that I've NEVER been this exhausted? This week was only 4 days, thanks to Labor Day, and it was still the longest week of my entire life! Any other grad students out there? Is everyone this insanely busy? Craziness! But I got these sunnies in the mail last week and it was just the pick me up I needed! Can we talk about these for a sec? I mean, hello! Can I have a pair in every color!? I love how retro they are and they have a cat-eye shape which is always my fave! And yes, I paired it with the iconic chambray ruffle dress. I've been seeing it on every blogger in the entire world all summer and eventually broke down and ordered one. But I absolutely love it - definitely a good purchase! To top it all off (I know you're all shocked because I never wear these...wink, wink) I added my favorite pair of Lisi Lerch tassels!
