How We Wore Our Chambray


 When the lovely Marsa, from The DayLee Journal  asked me if I wanted to collaborate, I got reallyyyy excited. Marsa is one of the sweetest, cutest, kindest, most stylish bloggers I have ever met. Her blog is one of my daily reads as she has a perfect way of styling everything anddd I sort of, kind of, completely want to steal her whole entire closet:) Deciding to share how we rocked our chambray's was a no-brainer, as a chambray top is every girl's BFF. While I wore my chambray on a sunny day with sneakers, Marsa donned hers for a rainy day, pairing it with the cutest yellow rain boots I have ever seen. Notice that we both added a print (mine in floral leggings, Marsa in a polkadot turban headband), for the perfect finishing touch.




Visit Marsa at The DayLee Journal to see more of how she styled her chambray!!

Au Natural - Hawaii Outfit 2

 Dress: Target (last season)
Sandals: Maurices - Find them HERE
Bracelet: Target (Current)



 I can't believe I was headed to Hawaii a month ago today! Time seriously flies! I promised more Hawaii pictures, but plan on staggering them. Sadly, when going through and editing them, there were a few whole outfit photos (like the one featuring the shirt I wore in the last post) that didn't turn out at all. Don't you hate when that happens? Oh well...que sera sera!!

I've had this pretty floral maxi dress since last year. The second I spotted it on the rack at Target, I was drawn to the bright, floral print and hi-lo hem line and had to snatch it up. It was the perfect dress to take to Hawaii, as what is better than a bright floral print for a tropical vacation?? I Paired it with flat sandals and a pretty, chunky bracelet, trying not to distract too much from the pretty pattern.

As for hair and makeup, I tend to go Au Natural when on vacation, opting for minimal makeup and loose hair. My routine typically consisted of a swipe of mascara, a little bronzer and lip gloss. Nothing easier than that!

Easter Egg-esque

 Top: 'Be My Daisy' Tank c/o August Wrinkle
Pants: 'Jegging Ankle' in Lavender - American Eagle - Find it HERE
Sandals: Forever 21 (Old)
Bracelets: Target
Earrings: 'Daisy' by Jewelmint



 Happy April! I've already said this in my previous post, but I am SO glad April is here! The weather here has been fantastic (in the 70s) and I have been soaking up as much sun as possible. Every year we get a little of this before it goes back to freezing and windy until late May and June (last year, it was cold all the way into July!), and I'm hoping this isn't the case this year! Fingers crossed it stays warm!!

Easter Sunday was a pretty relaxing day filled with church and family and friends. I dressed for the occasion in the prettiest pastels I could find. My family told me multiple times that I reminded them of an Easter egg in my pastel hues, but hey, I was totally digging it.

This top from August Wrinkle has been hidden away in my closet for quite some time, just waiting for a warm spring day. I wore it in Hawaii, but sadly the pictures did not turn out. Luckily, Easter was the perfect occasion for this springy top. I love the minty color and sweet daisy print that definitely feeds my print obsession. It has the perfect hint of sheerness and the layers throughout the front add the perfect floaty touch that I adore. If I had to pick one piece of clothing in my closet that defines spring, this would be it! This top is a must have for any spring wardrobe!!

My color of the moment?! Lavender. I have been so drawn to it lately, that when I saw these jeggings I HAD to have them!!! These jeggings are seriously amazing and fit like a glove. Plus, the color combo of the mint top and lavender pants is perfection. Mixed with nude sandals and pretty rose gold bangles, I felt just pastel-y enough for Easter. Easter egg-esque? Yes Please!
