| Who says your statement piece needs to be jewelry or your shoes? This jacket is the perfect fall statement item. I bought this jacket as a fall in-between (a little warmer than my trench and not as intense as my down winter coat) and I haven't stopped receiving compliments on it. This jacket is from H&M and is funky fresh. Find yours here: Tweed & Leather Jacket |

| It's Mother's Day so it's time to scream from the rooftops how proud of my mom I am. She brought me back this awesome Boston Strong t-shirt from her trip to Boston for her second marathon there. So, naturally I needed to style it and throw it on the blog. I paired this t-shirt with floral pants (H&M) and nude heels (Zara). Happy Mother's Day to my mom...a true inspiration and a marathon machine! |
 |
| I've been waiting to wear this kitty shirt for about 6 months and this was the day. The sequined pink glasses on the cat made it extra sassy. I paired this shirt (which I found in the little girls section) with a navy and white striped button up (from H&M), navy boyfriend pants and pink Zara suede heels. I'm obsessed, still. |
 |
| When I stumbled across these metallic shorts at Pitaya in my college town, I knew I needed in my life/wardrobe/closet. I love all things high waisted and all things sparkly so they were a must. I believe in really only showcasing one body part so I went with a modest tied top (from H&M) and platform heels. These shorts would be perfect for a girls night out - it's easy to dance the night away in shorts! |

| I recall, and might I add...very clearly...disliked houndstooth when I was a little girl. But, as my mother always told me, things are cyclical. And just like that...houndstooth is back and cuter than ever. This dress (from Target...get out, right?) is thick enough for a true northern winter outfit or worn alone for a southern "winter" day of 75 degrees. I paired this fab find with black tights, black pumps, a crisp white button up top and a tassel necklace. And of course, I topped off this outfit with red lips (NYX matte lip color). I'd suggest snagging this dress while it's available! |

| While it's still warm in Florida, it's fun to still dress seasonally. This red and black flannel top, from H&M, is the perfect versatile top for fall and winter. I paired this top with black leggings and leopard print flats to mix things up a bit. Need some other ideas for how to wear this top? Here's a few... 1. Try this top with a high-waisted tulle skirt (below the knees in length) and fun heels. 2. Leave this top untucked with skinny jeans and riding boots. |
 |
| My favorite thing in life (ok, perhaps this is a bit of an exaggeration) is not only layering but jazzing up ordinary pieces (like a sweatshirt) with a little sass. Luckily for me, Forever 21 already helped me with a little of the jazzing with the sequined pout (love). I would pair this combo with some ripped boyfriend jeans and heels or cute leather sneakers. Dress it up or dress it down, darlings. |
 |
| This white button up shirt is my best friend, my soulmate. I wear it with just about everything. Now that it's "winter" (in the 80's here today, however), it was time to add a little dimension to my work dresses. Throwing this white top under my dresses make it feel like an entirely new garment! Not to mention, these colors are quite perfect for the holiday season. Dress: H&M Shirt: H&M Necklace: Express Watch: Michael Kors |

| With as much coffee as what's consumed at my job before 9 am, we might as well all step up our coffee swag. Spice up your desk and morning with a precious and sassy mug, like the ones below. Find trendy and unique drinkware from Kate Spade to Tiffany & Co. Bottoms up, y'all. |

| If you follow the "no white after Labor Day" rule, time is ticking for you, honey. Get out those fresh white pants and start planning your outfit for the weekend before the whites get placed in the closet, not to see light for many moons. I'm loving a little color blocking with the white pants for a fun weekend look. This hot pink top (from Tibi) plays nicely with the Saako Design teal necklace and yellow Yves Saint Laurent heels. Keep the rest of the accessories simple with jewelry like these Tory Burch earrings and H&M stacked rings. It's the summer, so keep the makeup light with Maybelline Dream Fresh BB Cream and a pink summerly gloss stick. |

| What is a gal to wear to a friend's dinner party? It sure seemed like the perfect time to bust out these new snakeskin shorts from H&M ($12.95). I went on a rampage in my closet, trying on five different tops with these shorts but ultimately opted for this t-shirt (H&M - $7) and this blazer (Kardashian Kollection). I wore my silver scalloped necklace (Judy's Antiques) and a top knot. For shoes, I tied in a little subtle snakeskin with these White House, Black Market wedges. It was a success! |
 |
| It's fun to mix two of my favorite colors...not to mention throwing in some leopard print and layering. Holy fashion heaven. This J.Crew pink sweater is perfect for layering with my Forever 21 white collared shirt. These acid-washed teal pants (H&M) are cute as can be all rolled and ready to rock. I layered this necklace (from Charlotte Russe - $10) in my usual fashion. To throw in a curve ball and since everything was getting a bit "matchy matchy", I opted for these leopard flats. Voila - fun Friday outfit! |
 |
| If I can find ways to sneak in some of my favorite trends into my work outfits, I'm all about it. This top, from TJ Maxx (for probably $12.99) works perfectly with my mustard pencil skirt (H&M). I layered on my scalloped silver necklace (from Judy's Antiques - $1), dressing up the skull patterned top. I wore my black patent leather Aldo sky-high heels to finish off the outfit. Plus, what a perfect time to flaunt my new skull bracelet from Charming Charlie! Love. |
 |
| I am so jazzed about these fun pants, that I had to bring them out of the closet again. The first time I sported these patterned pants, I opted for a Kurt Cobain shirt...such a fun twist. This time, I went with a spiked top (from TJ Maxx) to add some edge. For heels, I went with my tall, black, patent leather Aldo heels. To finish off the look, I chose a red lip stain (L'Oreal) and a top knot (duh). |
 |
| A short trip to Charming Charlie turned into quite the adventure for my friend, Mary, and I. Not only did we find amazing arm party pieces, but I found this lime scarf which I "had to have". This is the ultimate summer accessory. Am I right or am I right? What screams summertime more than limes? When I saw this scarf, I was mentally taken to a place or margaritas and beach life. To keep things fresh, I kept the rest of the outfit completely white. My white pants (H&M) and white v-neck (J.Crew) kept things simple and truly made the scarf and lime green loafers (TJ Maxx) pop. I topped off the outfit with some fresh arm candy (from Charming Charlie, Francesca's, Forever 21 and H&M). |
 |
| I was excited to wear this super fun and feminine dress - I mean, how precious are the details? I found this dress at my favorite local boutique, Lindsay Nicole. Paired with sky-high patent leather heels from Aldo and this fun ring from H&M, I was having a ball twirling around in this little get up all day. |
 |
| Hot pink and sequins? Welcome to my heaven. I was beyond enthused about these hot pink suede heels from Zara and couldn't wait to find the ultimate outfit for making them pop. This white sequined blazer was a fab find at H&M for $30 (it's probably not necessary to say that I almost cried tears of joys) and I think it's the perfect mix of summer crisp white and glittery glam with the sequins. The necklace added the additional bling factor (from Charming Charlie - $27). Of course, this outfit wouldn't be complete without some fun hot pink lipstick (Urban Decay). |

| I'm a huge fan of these watermelon-colored pants (from Gap). Not only do they have a little stretched to them, but they are the perfect length (everyone knows it's a tough world for a girl with short legs to find pants that are the correct length). In order to not be too overpowering in this hue, I opted for a toned down denim top (TJ Maxx) with nude heels (Zara - not majorly uncomfortable!). I layered gold bracelets (a mix from H&M, Forever 21 and Francesca's) and my Michael Kors boyfriend watch. The bold necklace (J.Crew) ties the outfit together and adds a little color on top. Not bad for throwing something together before rushing out the door. |
 |
| This has to be one of my favorite outfits that I've put together in the last few months. The Kurt Cobain t-shirt (from Forever 21 - $8) gives a little edge to these patterned pants (H&M, duh). I love the unexpected mix here. I chose my new Zara black heels and a chunky chain necklace (channeling my inner Mr. T - available at Express). Topped with red lip stain and white nails, the look is complete! Edgy and fun - perfect attire for a girlfriend reunion! |
 |
| Sometimes you just have to have a little fun and forget about being so matchy-matchy. These three bracelets (all from H&M) were the perfect way to jazz up my plain dress for shopping. |
