Daily Uniform


This outfit wasn't anything particularly great, but I just got a remote for my camera so I just had to take outfit photos to try it out. It is SO much easier to take my outfit pictures by myself now so expect more posts :) This has been my daily uniform for the last few weeks. With school and my internship, it's quickest for me to just throw on some jeans, boots, a sweater, and some jewelry.

I've really been loving putting camel and turquoise together lately too. They compliment each other perfectly, and I have way too much turquoise jewelry so the combo is super easy for me.

Also, these boots. I got them at Target because they reminded me of the Steve Madden Banddit boots at about 1/5 of the price. Obviously the quality's not amazing and I'd still love to own the Steve Maddens, but I've been wearing them constantly. They're super comfortable, and since they're not real leather/only $40, I can walk right through the snow without a care.

PS - Ignore my camera in the mirror in some of the photos. That's what happens when you have an assortment of giant mirrors in your living room. Also, our mini Christmas tree has since been taken down :)

Back to Basics


This outfit may not look like 'basics', but it's full of things that I know work on me...if that makes sense. From the boots to jeggings to the gray drapey tank to the turquoise jewelry, these are the things that I know that I can throw on and not have to change two million times. :) What are your 'basics'?

Pastel Love


I was so excited to be able to wear a practically sleeveless shirt today that I went into full spring mode and added some pink pants and wedges. This outfit has so many of my favorite spring trends: denim(well..faux denim), colorful jeans, wedges, bright nail polish, feathers(earrings). I love it :) My roommate who takes all my outfit photos said this is her favorite one since she's been taking my photos so we decided to make the photo session a little more fun and went outside to my favorite alley. Yes, I have a favorite alley. As a photography major, good lighting is something I'm always looking for, and this alley right next to my building always has awesome lighting so I come back to it all the time.

I can't believe I'm moving out of Chicago in 2 weeks already! Although I love this city, I am excited to go back to Milwaukee. I've come to realize that, as excited as I was to live in the hustle and bustle of Chicago, living right in the middle of the city is just not as fun as I expected. More of a hassle most of the time actually. I'm just happy that I'll still be visiting this awesome city a couple days a week for classes. Best of both worlds for sure :)

  

Woah, my paleness has reached a new level this year. Yikes!
