Metallics

Going to school for fashion means always having to know what's up and coming trend wise. A trend predicted to be popular this upcoming Spring season that I'm totally in love with and already mentally preparing for, is metallic accessories. My favorite way to utilize this trend, is with metallic shoes. Below are a few outfits I put together featuring some adorably bad ass metallic shoes that I'm hoping to get my hands on. Let me know what you think of my looks in the comments below!

Do you think you could get into the metallic trend? How would you put your own spin on it?


Metallics

I really love taking simple shapes such as boyfriend jeans, and basic tees or sweaters with this look, so the attention is on the shoes. Floral is another way to keep the look girly. 


Heavy Metal

This is my more tough look. I love the metallic Doc Martens, keeping the colors muted will ensure the look stays tough, not sweet. 


As The City Grows Dark

This was my more glam look. Again, simple shapes keep the look more focused. I chose to use accessories in golden tones to draw attention to the shoes as well.

Boyfriend Jeans

I just recently bought my very first pair of boyfriend jeans. I know. It's crazy to think I've gone this long in my personal fashion career without a pair, but all that's changed now and I haven't taken them off. Unfortunately, my schedule hasn't allowed me to take many outfit photos the last few days. Because of my new obsession and the fact that I can't let it go unmentioned on this blog, I thought it would be fun to make a few Polyvore outfit concepts, and share them with you. For each of the three, I started with a pair of boyfriend jeans. I made a girly/fun outfit, a more "cool" and effortless outfit, and lastly a casual, feminine outfit, all of which work amazing with a pair of boyfriend jeans.

Which look would you rock?

What to Wear This Summer!

         Hey everyone! I don't know about you guys, but here in Portland, it has been so hot! The transition between fall clothes (which are my favorite to shop for!) to summer clothes can be challenging for everyone, and my summer clothes wishlist is getting longer every time I check out a shopping website! With the summer time juices flowing and my wishlist growing, I took some time to create three awesome go-to hot weather looks! Take a look!

The Maxi Skirt

I am so in love with maxi skirts with chambray shirts. It's so casual and effortlessly cool, and perfect for summer time! Not to mention the coral color is so in this summer!

The Sheer Dress + Bandeau Top
Okay, you got me. I don't necessarily have a specific summer trend I was following with this outfit, other than the fact I just love it. One of the hardest things about summer for me can simply be that my most favorite clothes to shop far are more fall time appropriate. I prefer darker colors and layers, so I created this outfit with that idea in mind, but it's also light enough for summer!

The Sweet Dress

I totally picture a southern bell going to a country club or something in this dress, or maybe one of the Gossip Girls! I think it's a really cute outfit because of it's simplicity. I'm usually not girly enough to wear something like this on a daily basis, but I think it would be fun and a cute idea if you had a reason to get a little dressed up while still keeping cool.

Aria Obsession

I don't know if I've ever mentioned this, but I am a huge Pretty Little Liars fan! One of the main reasons I began watching the show was because of the awesome wardrobe's the girls all have. But out of all the girls, I definitely have a favorite - Aria! She has this perfect mix of feminine cutesy-ness, with boho chic, and a touch "rocker chick". From her flawless hair, to adorable booties, Aria is constantly stylish and effortlessly cool. In honor of my Aria obsession, I made a Polyvore collage in dedication to her awesome style!
