Off The Shoulder

Watch: Kate Spade

This past weekend I went to one of my favorite shopping centers in my area, The Mosaic District. I went with my good friend Sydney (Prepped In Plaid). Not only does Mosaic have my 3 favorite stores (Madewell, Anthro, and South Moon Under) but it also has some amazing food options! One of my favorite restaurants "True Food Kitchen" (you may remember from this post last year) is here as well as the cutest coffee shop called "Mom & Pop".  I got a delicious coffee with a sandwich stacked high with fresh tomatoes, basil, and turkey. And of course I couldn't go into Madewell without buying something! I got this cute hoodie that is perfect for throwing on at night when it gets chilly.

I am a little late in this trend but I JUST got an off the shoulder top... and I understand the hype! They are  super cute and the epitome of summer tops! I paired this white blouse with my go-to jean shorts. As you can tell from my previous posts, I love pairing white with light denim. 

If you have any questions about my outfit or the Mosaic District feel free to comment or email me!

DC Send Off

Top: Anthropologie      Jeans: J.crew (Similar Here)      Shoes: Nordstrom

This past weekend I went to a send off party for my best friend who also happens to be Miss DC Teen USA. Next week she heads off to Vegas for the Miss Teen USA competition and I could not be prouder! Go Dylan!!

The party was at the Peacock Cafe in Georgetown. I opted for a simple black and white (and denim) look. I am wearing my favorite button down by Cloth & Stone (sold at Anthropologie). It is so soft and flowy and can be dressed up or down. I got my Chanel look alike purse years ago from J.crew. I paired the simple outfit with my favorite Hinge wedges. The sole of the shoes are cushioned making them super easy to walk in.

Nordstrom Anniversary Sale

Today I hit up one of the greatest sales of the year... The Nordstrom Anniversary Sale!! Or as you've seen on Instagram, the #NSale. I went with my ultimate shopping partner, my mom. We had our prompt 10:30 departure to ensure that we wouldn't miss a thing! I thought I would share some of the items I got this year. I hope you enjoy! xx

Booties: Steve Madden

There's nothing more classic than a Black Chelsea Boot which is why I couldn't pass these beauties up!

Bralette and Undies: Calvin Klein

I am a huge fan of the Calvin Klein bras and underwear. They are seriously SO comfy, whether I am working out in them, sleeping in them, or just lounging in them. I already have the grey and black pair so when I saw this hunter green pair I just HAD to get them. 

Desert Booties: Kate Spade

I am so obsessed with these fun Kate Spade booties. They are so different and I can't wait to wear them all Fall. The fringe makes the shoes so fun and unique and they look so cute with a good pair of jeans. 

This BB cream isn't special to the Sale or a new product or anything but I thought I would share it because I love it! I use this product everyday. It is so great because it is SPF 35 so it keeps my skin safe from the sun yet it feels super light weight. It also blends easily and is really good at covering up any red spots or blemishes. I would definitely recommend this Bobbi Brown BB cream for anyone that's looking for new face makeup!

3 Inches Later

Sunnies: Ray-Ban      'H' Necklace: South Moon Under      Tank: Free People

Shoes: Steve Madden

There's nothing more refreshing than a hair makeover, which is why I always start my summers by chopping off a few inches of hair! I find that shorter hair is so much easier to style in the summer and it's better with the heat (I'm talking no sweaty hair stuck to the back of my neck). Short hair is also super on trend right now. Each day you see more and more bloggers, models, and girl bosses sporting a short do. 

I am wearing my new favorite sunnies which I see as an affordable pair of Dior glasses (a girl can only dream). My tank top is by Free People and I have it in 4 different colors. It is seriously my go to top because it is so versatile. I wear it running errands, with jeans, and even when I work out. 

Happy 4th!

What's my perfect 4th of July recipe? BBQ + Pool + Stripes + Denim + Sun. Unfortunately my recipe was lacking sun! Here in DC we had quite the rainy holiday. I had an indoor BBQ with my family, full of hot dogs and watermelon. Since the forecast called for night time rain we opted for day time sparklers.

I have been loving all the denim this season. My absolute favorite denim item right now is this Free People skirt. It is so summery and creates the perfect girly boho look. I paired it with this J.Crew staple striped tank because what's more American than some good stripes? I stacked this statement necklace with a super cute and delicate necklace my good friend got me for graduation. It's from an Etsy store,  My Limo is Waiting, and you should definitely check it out!

Happy 4th of July!! xx
