mid-semester blues

First off, let me apologize for my severe lack of posts lately! I just barely escaped midterm season. My first midterm experience. Needless to say, I definitely was not prepared for that. Can I exchange college-level coursework for highschool-level but keep the awesome social aspect of college? Please & thank you.

Now that I'm done with midterms, I'm going to try and be a little more active on here! I used to always go out and shoot/post whenever I had downtime...but now when I have downtime I pass the heck out because I need sleep. Time management never has been my strongsuit. I really should work on that.

In other news, FALL HIT TEXAS EARLY! Expect lots of sweaters and cozy outfits to come.

I'll admit to being a little late on the whole harem pant trend. I've loved them for quite some time, but I have had the hardest time finding a flattering pair. They just never seem to sit right on me. Finally, though, I snagged a pair from Forever21 and I'm in love! They're super comfortable, and I get loads of compliments on them. Definitely a good purchase. Plus, they're military green, so I can comfortably ease them into fall! I also found this little tiger crop top (with pleather sleeves- heaven!!) at Buffalo Exchange in Dallas a few weeks back on a little shopping excursion with my best friend, Mags. I was worried I wouldn't have anything to pair it with, but luckily these pants came into my possession only a few days later and I love the way they mesh!

Finally back in my own bed after a nice, week-long trip to Colorado! Sad to be back to blazing hot temperatures, but so happy to get to snuggle up with my little dog and see familiar faces!
This is the last of my Colorado posts....after this it's back to boring ol' Texas posts :')

pretty in prints

Snapped this shot of two of my current favorite shoes! Wedges and flats- the perfect duo for every day.
For the most part, I am very minimal when it comes to clothes. Shoes, however, are where I tend to branch out a bit more.
These cheetah print flats (Target) go with EVERYTHING. They are the best go-to shoes, comfy, and I suggest everyone grab a pair. They're also super cheap, too, so really there's no excuse not to!
The floral wedges (also Target) are a bit more...out there...than I usually wear, but I love them all the same. I receive compliment after compliment on them, and they make my legs look soooo long because of the huge platform and wedge. They're the perfect accessory to simple dresses for a night out. I wore them to a friend's birthday dinner this weekend with a simple white lace dress and they were perfect for balancing out the simplicity of the dress.
The cheetah print ballet flats work all year round, but the wedges do look a little more spring/summer. To help make them winter-ready you could always just throw on a pair of knit socks and pile them under tights!

first week of summer

It's been a while since I've done a full outfit post....going to try and keep up with that a bit more now that I'm out for summer and will have extra free time!

skippin' skool

some new shoezies i picked up the other day. they're suuuper comfy surprisingly

stayed home from school today and tried on this new lil shirt i got the other day. it was kind of an impulse buy and i didn't try it on beforehand, but i really like it! the material is a little cheap (as almost all f21 pieces are) but i really it so i went for it anyways
