Lazy Saturday Outfit

I am loving outfit posts at the moment!  On Saturday I went to my nieces' birthday party.  I wanted to look nice but still be comfortable.  This is the perfect outfit for that.  I wore a slightly oversized blue striped shirt.  It is longer in the back with two pockets in front.  I love how the stripes go in different directions.  It makes it more interesting.  I chose a pair of lightwash jeggings.  They are super comfortable and the rip details make it more casual.  Last up are my ankle booties.  These are my favorite shoes!  The chain details are just perfect!  All my clothes are from Kohls.  For my hair I did a messy braid with my sea salt spray for slight waves.  Let me know if you want more posts like this.

4 Last Minute Halloween Costumes From Your Closet

Most of us will probably be going to some sort of Halloween party this weekend.  There is no reason to go spend $80 on a costume because all you'll need is your closet.  If you are like me then you probably have no clue what to be.  Don't worry I've got you covered!  I came up with 4 costumes that you already own.  Let's get to it!

First up is a scarecrow.  All you'll need is a plaid shirt, preferably red, some ripped jeans, and brown boots.  You can add makeup and a straw hat if you would like.  All you need is a braid and your look is complete.

Next up is a witch.  All that you will need is a black dress and black boots.  Any dress will work as long it's black so just pick your favorite.  The only thing you'll need to but is a witch hat which is less than $5.  If you are crafty then make your own.

Next is a flower goddess.  You'll need a flowy white dress, sandals, and a flower crown.  Think Coachella vibes or the Snapchat filter.  This my favorite for sure.

Last up is a fitness girl.  All you need are yoga pants, a exercise top, and sneakers.  This is probably the best one.  You can go straight from the gym to your party.  Plus you will be super comfortable all night!

Well that is what I came up with!  What was your favorite?  Also, let me know what you are going to be for Halloween in the comments!

My 2016 Summer Nail Polish Colors

Hey everybody!  I'm SO glad that summer is coming very soon.  I've been into painting my nails lately so I went shopping for the perfect colors.  I found six colors that I will be wearing all summer long.  What is your go to nail polish?

This is Chillato by Essie.  It's a pistachio green color.  I fell in love with this color last year and then I forgot to buy it.  I'm glad I finally have it.

This is Peach Side Babe by Essie.  I also fell in love with this color last year.  It's the perfect coral peachy color.  This will look excellent with a tan!

This is Skylark by Sinful Colors.  I'm OBSESSED with this color!!!!  This is a peach color.  I picked it out the second I saw it.

This is Mint 2 B Cool by Sinful Colors.  This is a light blue/aqua color.  I never really go for colors like this so I went out of my comfort zone.  I think it will look great.

This is Let's Talk by Sinful Colors.  I love shiny colors so I obviously needed this.  It's a dark purple color,  I will probably put glitter with this.

This is Innocent by Sinful Colors.  It's a neon green color.  I love neon especially during summer.  It makes you look more tan.

Perfect Spring Outfit

It's officially spring!!!  I'm SO happy because I had the winter blues for sure.  One Saturday, my mom and I went to see the Phantom of the Opera.  We love going to live shows together plus I get to dress up.  I really want to do more fashion posts so I thought I'd share my perfect spring outfit.  We'll start with my hair.

I really wanted something super easy and simple.  So I pulled all my hair to one side and started with a twist.  About half way down I started doing a fishtail braid.  After I finished the braid I pulled it so it would look thicker and I was done!

I'm obsessed with rompers!!  I bought this one from Delia's and I love it!  I love the detailing and the tassles.  It's part of the festival collection.  I wore my black sandals to dress it up a little bit more.  I would totally wear sneakers with it though.  To finish the look I put on my purple and green sunglasses.  They are just so cool and I love the shape.

If you want more posts like this then let me know!

HUGE Clothing Haul!

I told myself I wasn't going to buy anymore clothes for awhile.  I totally failed!  I got a bunch of emails with a ton of sales.  I just couldn't resist!  I'm a girl and shopping is just my guilty pleasure.  I know you girls understand me.  I bought from Boohoo and Kohls.  These are my go to stores.  Everything I bought was on sale plus extra percentages off.  What stores do you love?  Enjoy!

We'll start with Boohoo first.  I've been wanting a leather jacket for a super long time but I refuse to pay $300.  This was only $37 and it's AMAZING quality.  If you saw my My Galentine's Day post then you can see how I paired it.

Sunglasses are my life!  Last year I wanted a round pair but also a mirrored pair.  Good thing I waited because this is both in one.  I'm obsessed!

The last thing from Boohoo are also sunglasses.  I love the gold frame a lot!  Plus the lens change different colors when you move.

Next up is Kohls.  I really wanted dressier tops because I have a few formal events.  I love the print and it really isn't a color I wear a lot.  I'm expanding!

I'm a sucker for graphic tees!  Ninja Turtles just reminds me of childhood.

I'm obsessed with crochet clothing right now.  I also have no striped clothing so I picked this up.

Notice a trend yet?  I loved this color and it looks super cozy!

This my favorite thing I bought!  It's faux leather and the sleeves are sweater material.  I've seen these everywhere but they were not in my budget.  This was only $22!

Who doesn't need sweats?  I love the sequin detail though.  It just makes them more classy.

I love peplum anything but I just never buy it.  I liked that this was casual but you could dress it up.

Basically my motto in life!

I wanted a nice dress for Easter and I thought this print was perfect.  It's great for spring as well.

Lastly I bought three of the same racerback tanks.  Bright colors are my thing!  These are perfect for summer.  Plus they were only $8 each!

My Galentine's Day Outfit

In case you didn't know Galentine's Day is celebrated on February 13.  Basically it's just hanging out with all your girlfriends with no boys around.  I went to a party where we ate dinner, played games, and watched movies.  I thought I would share my outfit because I loved it!

I'll start with my hair.  I did two braids and then used my perfect bun to put my hair in a bun.  I wanted to do an updo because it looks like you took a lot of time when you really didn't.  It took maybe 10 minutes.

Next we'll talk about my nails.  I knew I wanted to do pink because of Valentine's Day.  When I saw this grey color I knew it would be perfect.  I just did hearts and dots.  It turned out pretty well.

Now it's time for my outfit.  My leather jacket is from boohoo.  It's super light and soft.  My sweater is a coral color with a chevron heart.  It's from kohls and I like it because it's dressy but casual.  I wore my faux leather leggings from kohls.  Lastly I wore my tan booties which I'm obsessed with.  They are from kohls also.

Weekly Obsession!

Today's obsession isn't new but I just rediscovered.  My weekly obsession is....a workout tshirt!  Now I don't workout AT ALL but these shirts are the best!  They are by Danskin Now and cost about $9 which is a good deal.  I have a neon pink and a neon orange and I wear them all the time.  I bought mine at Walmart in the Women's section.  These shirts are lightweight and perfect for this time of year.  It gets really hot and muggy here so you tend to sweat a lot.  The shirts have a mesh back and side so it really helps you stay cooler.  Plus people will think you workout even if you don't.  I really like that for some reason.  I highly recommend them!  What are you loving this week?

Weekly Obsession!

I'm going to be going back to school next month.  That means it's time to buy new clothes!  Last year my all time favorite store closed.  I was SUPER upset!  It is now back!!!!!  My weekly obsession is...Delia's!  I can't even explain how excited I am that this store is back.  I absolutely love all of their clothing.  I'd say about 80% of my wardrobe is from them.  It is only an online store now but I'm fine with that.  The sizing chart they use is very accurate.  I've never had a problem with my size.  I love the deals as well.  I just put everything in my cart and wait until I feel the price is acceptable.  Last year I put a pair of shorts that were about $32 and I waited and got them for $7!  I'm all about the deals!  The quality is also really good.  My favorite items are the graphic tee's.  I highly recommend that you go check them out!  Be looking out for a haul soon!!!!!  What is your favorite store?

My 4th Of July Style

Can you believe that 4th Of July is tomorrow?  I'm SUPER excited because it's one of my favorite holidays.  We spend the day hanging out and eating way too much food!  At night is when all the fun begins!  Today I thought I would share what I'll be wearing for the holiday.  What are you wearing for the 4th?  Let me know!

This year I'll be wearing a romper for sure this year!  It's perfect because it looks like you spent a ton of getting ready but you didn't.  I love anything that cuts down my getting ready time.  They are really comfortable and not too tight.  This is perfect because then you can eat as much food as you want!  Also it's shorts so you will stay covered if it gets windy!

I'm OBSESSED with gladiator sandals this year.  I feel like they go well any outfit.  They are really comfortable as well.  I spend most of my day outside playing with my nieces so I don't want my feet hurting.  The only downside is you can get crazy tan lines but I don't mind!

Since I'll be outside most of the day I'm going to need sunglasses.  I've been loving the round style this year.  I wear prescription glasses but I normally wear non-prescription sunglasses.  My eyesight isn't that bad but now I can buy these.  These sunglasses are from Salt City Optics which is a prescription sunglasses site.  There are many styles, brands, and colors to choose from.  Check them out!

Hats are always a must during summer.  There are so many benefits!  It shades your face so you don't get a sunburn.  It also keeps your head cool which is always good.  This hat is from Forever 21 and super patriotic.  Go America!

I love fringe anything!  It just really makes me feel like I'm at Coachella when I'm not.  If I'm using a purse I prefer using the crossbody style.  It keeps your shoulder from hurting and it also helps prevent somebody from stealing.  I like the smaller sizes because them you are only carrying the essentials.

I wear bracelets with everything!  I love the odd shapes ones especially.  You can be as creative as you want and create different combos.  This set is from Forever 21 and I'm in love!  You can where them separately or all together.  You could even mix them with other bangles.

♥Boohoo Haul♥

Hey guys!  Today's post is all about clothes!  I really needed some new outfits for summer but also some exciting adventures coming up.  Don't worry you'll find out what they are soon enough!  I went crazy and filled my cart full of stuff at first but then I couldn't justify spending $100 on 5 items.  So I narrowed it down and only spent $45.  The great thing about this site is a new deal happens every 24 hours.  I waited until it was 40% off all items.  Also If you spend over $40 it's free shipping.  Now lets get to the clothes!!

I'm a sunglasses addict!  I buy a new pair every single summer so when I saw these I knew I must have them.  I love the old Hollywood vibe of these.  I'm obsessed with the 50's and 60's era.  I love the baby pink detail as well.  I wanted to try a cat eye pair but I was nervous they wouldn't look good.  These have a slight cat eye so it's perfect.

My obsession with rompers is real!  This a neon orange romper.  I thought this would be perfect with a summer tan.  It's also dressier compared to others that I have.  You could still go casual though which is always good.  I really like the waist area because it will give you more of a figure.

I saved the best for last!  This is everything that defines me in a romper.  The only thing missing is glitter.  I fell in love the second I saw it.  I love anything tie dye so this is perfect.  The best part is the coin detailing across the top!  I love Esmeralda from the Disney film Hunchback of Notre Dame and this just reminds me of her.  I can now live out my dream of being her somewhat.  I just love it!!!!

My OOTD: Baseball Game

Every year around this time the College World Series comes to my hometown of Omaha, Nebraska.  I go every year and it's basically the kick off to summer.  Last night I went to a game so I thought I'd share my outfit!  If you want more like posts like this you can email me, tweet me, or leave a comment!

Outfit: I wore a light blue romper that had different colored flamingos on it.  I bought this for $7 from Delia's at the end of last year.  It was perfect for a game because they are super comfortable.

Shoes:  I wore my black sandals.  I got these last year from Walmart for $10.  They dress up every outfit but not too much.

Sunglasses:  I own LOTS of sunglasses!  I wore the ones the start out purple on top the slowly fade to green.  I'm pretty sure I got them from Target for $5.

Hair:  It was about 90 degrees yesterday so I did a messy top knot.  Then I added a black headband to keep all the baby hairs contained.

3 Easy Hairstyles For Short Hair In 5 Minutes Or Less

I recently cut my hair short.  I was pretty freaked out because I went a bit shorter than I had planned.  So I asked my cousin, who is also my hair stylist, how to style my hair.  I'm going to share 3 easy hairstyles that I do that literally take 5 minutes or less.  If you have any ideas let me know!

Beach Waves:

I really wish it was summer right now!  Instead I just made my hair look like beachy summer waves.  All you need is a spray.  I use the Aussie Sprunch Spray.  It is only about $4 at most drugstores and it still leaves your hair smooth.  All you do is spray on your damp hair and grab hair to scrunch it.  That's all!

Bouncy Curls:

I was worried that I couldn't curl my hair now but I found a way.  Use the biggest size barrel of curling wand you have.  Curl every other section of your hair.  This will give you bouncy curls and tons of volume.  Use hairspray to make it hold.

Halo Braid:

This is my favorite one.  On each side of your head braid a section of hair and secure with an elastic.  Then move both braids around to the back of your head and secure them together with bobby pins.  This is perfect for mornings when you are in a hurry.

Valentine's Day Gift Guide For Her

Welcome to day 2 of my Valentine's Day week posts.  There will be a new Valentine's Day themed post every day this week.  Today I thought I would do a gift guide.  This is for guys who aren't sure what to buy for their girlfriends.  It's also for us girls who just want to buy ourselves a gift.  Let's be honest, single girls rule too!  You could even give them to your best friend.  Let's get started!  What do you guys want?

This is the Fuji Instax Mini 8.  I'm obsessed with these!  It is a Polaroid camera which I'm glad are coming back.  The picture instantly comes out right after you take it.  It has an amazing variety of colors!  Personally I'm loving the baby pink.  It is a bit pricey at $70 but I think it's totally worth it.  It makes your photos so vintage and just cool!

You may sense a theme right now.  This is the Crosley Cruiser Turntable.  Record players are making a comeback.  My dad had a vintage one that I would play all the time.  The music just sounds so raw and real.  There are many colors to choose from as well.  The price is $80 but I think that is a great price.  You won't regret it!

This the perfect gift idea for somebody who want to stay healthy.  This is an Edible Arrangement.  I think these are perfect for any occasion.  They are made fresh and I like that you can add chocolate.  Nothing beats fruit and chocolate!  The price ranges from $35 to $679 depending on what size you'd like.  I highly recommend it!

You can never go wrong with jewelry.  This is a Slim Bar Pendant.  I have been loving simple pieces lately.  I like being able to wear my jewelry with any outfit so this is perfect.  It comes in gold, rose gold, and silver.  This is $34 which is a bargain.  Especially since it is the perfect stable piece.

I love perfume.  This is the One Direction You & I perfume.  Their perfumes always smell SO amazing!  You can choose any one that you want.  This one costs $50 but trust me it will last a really long time.  If you don't know what kind of perfume the person likes, just buy a sample set.

I Cut My Hair!

With the new year I wanted a new look.  So today I cut it all off!  I was inspired by Taylor Swift's short hair.  I also added highlights and bangs.  Here is the look!

I took a pretty big step.  I told myself that it's just hair and it will grow back.  I'm obsessed with the bangs though!  What do you guys think?
