I've been absolutely loving the separates look lately! It's such a fun alternative to a dress and I love that it can easily be worn dressed up or down! When I received this skirt from Kensie, I fell in love. It has the cutest embroidered flower pattern on it and the tulle overlay gives it the perfect amount of poof. The leather waistband adds such a cool touch, without overpowering the feminine vibes. I've worn it a few different ways, including one of my favorites, paired with a chambray button down. 

When I paired this skirt with the striped black and white crop top, I LOVED that it gave it that separates look, matching the black and white. Adding a touch of bling, a denim jacket and booties dressed it down enough for it to be appropriate for every day wear, but I could easily loose the jacket and change the shoes for the perfect night out look! 

And now for the giveaway news you've been waiting for...

You all know my love for a great little white dress in the summer time! My collection is slowly growing, as there is nothing better than throwing on a sweet LWD when you don't know what to wear.

This option from Sheinside is too perfect. The pretty lace detailing and off the shoulders sleeves makes for the perfect summer dress for a dinner date or when you are headed to the beach. It's surprisingly breezy considering it's made of lace and I absolutely adore the detailing!

I wanted to keep it simple, so I paired it with my usual hat and sunnies combo, some pretty Bauble Bar earrings, and my favorite Forever 21 sandals. The best part though? This awesome aztec tote of my Mom's that I just unearthed from her closet that she rocked in the 80's. There is nothing better than a sweet treasure from the past that is unique just because it's from another style era.

Shoes: Target (old) - similar here and here and these are at the top of my wish list! 

Bag: Rebecca Minkoff '5 Zip Mini'

Every year when summer starts to roll around, I automatically gravitate towards bright neons, specifically this neon green. There is something about this color that always calls to me and it never fails that every year I end up with something in this shade. Is it not just the most fun and vibrant color perfect for summer?? 

Not only is this dress my summer dream color, but it also has a super flattering fit, is great quality and at $20 it's a total STEAL! I would definitely recommend, especially if you are looking for a fun dress to wear for a special occasion this summer! 

I love pairing blues and turquoise with neon green, so my blue bib necklace was a natural choice. Paired with my all time favorite necklace from Accessory Concierge and a bright pink lip, I felt like I had just the right amount of bling to give me the perfect neon glam look!

Yeah...I Really Own That: Ariel from Auteur Ariel

It's been awhile since I've featured an awesome fellow blogger on my Yeah...I Really Own that feature, but we're back, and I'm so excited about today's leading lady! I've been following Ariel, of Auteur Ariel since the beginning. I remember finding her on instagram and immediately becoming obsessed with her style. She has the perfect mix of laid back cool with a side of girly and I LOVE it. She's definitely one blogger I keep up on, as she always inspires me to mix and match in my wardrobe as her outfits are always ALWAYS on point! To top it off, Ariel is gorgeous and wonderfully sweet...just reading her blog and watching her youtube videos makes you feel like she could be your real life bff. Oh, and she is a new puppy mama to the CUTEST puppy you've ever seen! Head on over to Ariel's blog to check out her amazing style and meet her sweet puppy, but first...

I am so excited to introduce you to this stunning, sweet lady and my May 2014 Yeah...I Really Own that guest blogger...

Ariel of Auteur Ariel

Hey there I'm Ariel and I blog over at Auteur Ariel! I was so stoked when Ashley asked me to contribute to this series on her blog! Twenties Girl Style is one of the first blogs I started following when I began blogging a little over a year ago and I've been a huge fan of her blog and this series since. So you can obviously tell my excitement when I got an email from Ashley asking me to guest post! It's really an honor when someone you admire acknowledges you & your work. So, thanks Ashley!!!

Anyway, on to my "Yeah...I really own that" piece. Believe it or not I graduated from college with a degree in Film--it's a big passion of mine but I don't often get to practice it that often so a lot of people don't know I'm an undercover film geek. I love everything from comedies to documentaries but a favorite category of mine is classics--and what better classic is there than Star Wars?? So when I saw this "Boombox Stormtrooper"Tee at Forever 21, I couldn't resist buying it because it was just too perfect. My husband thinks its a little silly whenever I wear it out but I shamelessly love it. I've worn it to the gym, out to eat, and even dressed it up and featured it on my blog a while back (see that post HERE). For this outfit I gave it an edgy look with the skater shoes and spiked necklace--I was feeling nostalgic of my high school years when I thought I was Avril Lavigne... What can I say? This tee displays my hidden love for a classic 70s Sci-Fi flick. Soooo yeah, I really own that.
