Patterned Pants

Now that the sun is coming out I decided to pull out my patterned pants! I am loving lighter colors this spring. Spring is great because it is getting warmer but its still not hot so you can get some last minute wear into some of your fall/winter items while pulling out your spring/summer wear. It is really fun to mix items from different seasons. For example, I did an earlier post about pairing a sweatshirt over a pretty dress.

When wearing pants with a bold print I like to stay simple with my top so that my pants are the focal part of my outfit and can really stand out! I did layer on a textured cardigan (It's kinda hard to tell in the pictures...) when it was chillier that day, as well.  Anyways, these pants just add a little spring flair to my outfit and they are super fun. I get so many compliments when I wear them; I think because they are so different!

I only have a month left of classes until summer! I am so excited to make all these fun summer memories and make it the best summer yet! I have never been too big on summer fashions... BUT this year I have been really excited for Spring and Summer so I will try to still make posts and step up my warm-wear-game!

What fashions are you looking forward to this Spring/Summer??

Edgy Details

Last month, while in Paris, I decided to stop into a store I've never been to, Zara. Now I had heard of Zara before through other fashion bloggers or fashion youtubers, but have never visited it myself. The store had so many classy, unique pieces that also had some edge (which is totally what I love)! I got this dress there that is a tubular silhouette with gathers in the back that add a little more movement to the dress. I love this dress because I don't have anything else like it and the blue color is just lovely! I love pairing this dress with edgy details like my spike bracelet and my combat boots!

Spring Flowers

Spring is such a fun time! The weather is getting warmer, and fashions are starting to change. One fashion element that I loved last year and will continue to love this year is flower headbands! They are such a cute way to add some sweet girly-ness to your outfit. My outfit in these pictures is already quite girly... but flower headbands can give any outfit a kind of "flower child" edge and is such a cute boho accessory.

Bonjour, Paris!

Last month, I had the amazing opportunity to travel to Paris, France with my parents and my sister. It was absolutely beautiful and everywhere I turned, I wanted to take another and another and another picture! We ate crepes, spoke some french, and saw Notre Dame and the Eiffel Tower, and much much more. That was my dream trip. Ive always wanted to go there :)

Heres some photographs..

Mug + Sharpie

Here's a fun little craft I did this week and it's such a fun gift idea for birthdays or just a fun art activity!

All you need is a ceramic mug, plate, or bowl, etc. and a sharpie and an oven and KAPOW you have a super-cute and original item of your own!

You can get so creative with this kind of thing. I really like the idea of writing a positive quote on something that you can look at and read each morning. Those positive words can seriously start your day off right!

After you write on your mug and have your desired design, just stick it in the oven at 350 degrees and set your timer for 30 minutes. Place the mug in the oven during preheat. Bake; When time is up, turn the oven off and let your mug cool completely in the oven.

All done! :)

Twinkle

Leather has been a HUGE trend for fall/winter this year! I personally am loving the "leather" legging. Its a perfect way to add a little bit of edge to an outfit. I'm so glad I was finally able to find some I liked at H&M a few months ago. They are blocked with a knit fabric on the back so they fit nicely :) They have gone to good use, let me tell you. 

Leather leggings are super fun to mix with dresses and long shirts. In this particular outfit, I had A LOT of fun with layering different items. I wore my mini-stars dress over my leggings. To add warmth, I included my black cardigan with my new jean-hoodie vest from Forever 21. This look is fun because it is edgy but still feels a little girly because of the flirty star dress.
