#HowWeWear: Black and White

Well, well, well. Look who's back. It has definitely been too long of a hiatus, so I'm back...and with a very special style challenge post! My Poshmark ladies and I styled black and white and I LOVE seeing everyone's looks. Can we say chic?

While I am a HUGE fan of color (who me? hehe) once in awhile a girl's gotta keep it simple. This Asos dress is most definitely one of my favorites-- I just love the split look and that it can easily be dressed up or down. In this case, I went with a very resort inspired style as these photos were taken right before my trip to Bali and Thailand (More on that soon, promise!).

It's good to be back and I can't wait to start regular posts again. Check out the full outfit and link up with my fellow fashionistas below!

Dress: Asos // Shoes: Target // Hat: H&M // Bag: Forever 21 // Lipstick: NYX Cosmetics

Mirrored and Metallic

Jeans: Poshmark // Tank: Forever 21 // Necklace and Shoes: Asos // Blazer, Clutch & Sunglasses: Target // Lipstick: Covergirl

I definitely jumped on the mirrored sunglasses bandwagon and sorry, but I'm not sorry. They are just so funky, fun, and I love that it's almost impossible for you to see through them...in other words- they are the perfect pair of sunnies to wear for people watching. Am I right?

Needless to say I want another pair in a different color. Obsessed.

On another note, I am gearing up for a mini vacay to New Jersey for my grandpas 85th birthday (amazing!), followed by a work trip to Texas so the next 10 days are going to be quite crazy. Be sure to follow me on Twitter and Instagram to see snippets from my trips!

Primary Colors

Shorts & Blazer: Target // T-shirt & Wedges: K-mart // Bag & Sunglasses: Asos // Earrings: Forever 21 // Lipstick: Revlon

Did everyone have a relaxing weekend? I sure did--I spent it with my sister who came into town from LA hanging by the beach, eating lobster rolls and having some much needed girl time. There's nothing like spending time with family to reenergize you for another busy week.

Let's do this, Monday!

Peace, Love, and Fashion

Skirt: Target // Blouse & Necklace & Cuff: Forever 21 // Headband: H&M // Shoes: Ann Taylor (On sale in my Poshmark Closet) // Sunglasses: RayBan // Lipstick: Maybelline

While most of you know this more 'boho' look isn't really my style, I love switching things up and trying things I normally wouldn't...and not going to lie--this outfit was super fun to wear (and perfect for a messy hair day). I did, however, get quite the stares at Starbucks and from some corporate folks near work, but I just held my hippie-esque head high and twirled along in this skirt.

Lastly, while I seriously love the shoes in this post, they are just a wee bit too high for me so I decided to sell them! They deserve a better home, so shop for them in my Poshmark Closet!

Summer Prints: Totally Tropical

Shorts: H&M // Denim Jacket: Target // Shoes & Sunnies: Asos // Clutch: Poshmark // Lipstick: Wet n Wild // Bangles: Forever 21

When I purchased these shorts about two years ago, I knew they would be in heavy rotation...but little did I know that they would be my go-to pair summer after summer. The lightweight material, bright tropical floral print, and slightly higher waist style is the perfect combo of comfort and fun!

And remember my excitement last week when I ordered these pumps? Well, they are just as lovely as I imagined, and thought they were the perfect finishing touch to this look!

Country Chic

Top & Sunglasses: Tobi // Shorts: Forever 21 // Pumps: Boutique 9 // Watch: Michael Kors // Bag: Michael Kors via Poshmark // Bangles: Poshmark // Wrap Bracelet: Gorjana

I'm not sure if it was the recent Brad Paisley concert I went to or what, but I had been hunting for a flannel or plaid-esque shirt lately. When I saw this one on Tobi (while taking full advantage of the 50% off sale) I knew that I wanted to wear it in a not-so-casual way because of the lighter weight, chiffon- type of material. And that's exactly what I did-I fought the urge to throw on my Chuck Taylors, and opted for my fave new nude pumps, sock bun and a red lip.

Mission: Monday outfit accomplished! Here's to a great week!

Flower Power

Jeans: Target // Denim top: H&M // Heels: Charlotte Russe // Assorted bangles: Asos, Forever 21 & Vintage

My closet is full of all different colored and printed jeans, however, I have been searching high and low for the perfect floral pair- and alas- at my latest Target haul the heavens opened up and I scored these babies! I love the brightly colored flowers and the cropped ankle length is perfect for summer with sandals, or fall with booties. I just know these will be in regular rotation from here on out!

Reminder! You have until tonight at midnight PST to enter my Reader Appreciation Giveaway! Don't miss out on winning a 3-month subscription to Birchbox! I will announce the winner here on the blog tomorrow.

Little Black Dress

Dress: LYLIF // Sandals: Steve Madden // Bag: Rebecca Minkoff // Sunglasses: Tobi // Necklace: H&M // Watch: Michael Kors

Every woman should own a little black dress right? Well, it's funny because for the longest time I didn't have just a simple. black. dress and when I finally realized a few months back, I made a conscious effort to add this one to my wardrobe. Now, if there's one thing I can easily say, it's that I don't wear a ton of black (shocker, right?) so when I slipped this baby on I knew it needed to be punched up with this neon necklace, leopard bag, and studded sandals. I really like the simplicity of this look, but this girl always needs some color in her life.

Here's to a bright week!

P.S- Fashionablee Me reached 100 'likes' on Facebook over the weekend (YAY!) and I will be doing a little giveaway later on this week to show my appreciation, so stay tuned! <3

Simple and Summery

Dress: Forever 21 // Blouse and Sandals: H&M // Bag: Asos // Watch: Michael Kors // Bangle: Vintage

I am sure you are all very familiar with this polka dress by now. I knew when I got it I would be wearing it non stop this summer! It is just so light and airy, and looks great with different colors and prints- hence the watercolor floral blouse and pastel yellow bag. Simple and summery, at your service!

Happy, HAPPY Friday!

Summer at the Office

Top: H&M // Shorts: Nordstrom // Blazer: Marshall's // Ring: Forever 21 // Shoes: Target // Sunglasses: Tobi // Bag: Michael Kors

I remember when summers used to be all about waking up late, going to the beach and relaxing all day... As much as that sounds amazing from time to time, I am so thankful I have a career in something I love way more than the beach. So for me, dressing in summer revolves a lot about what I wear to work during the week(and of course I save the relaxing for the weekends)- A lot of my M-F days at the office involve a pair of shorts, a fun top, and of course some bright colors. And now I hope you understand why I have a lack of a tan! :-)
