Snow Day

Today marks the first official first snowfall of the season! I had planned on wearing a skirt and heels to work today, but opted for something a bit warmer due to the sudden snowfall. I picked up these Banana Republic booties last weekend and couldn't be happier with them! They are easy to walk in, comfortable, and warm enough to wear on a snowy, cold day. I try not to repeat clothing or shoes during the week (yes, I'm that obsessive!) but couldn't resist wearing my boots twice in the same week!

Leopard Shift Dress

Dress: thrifted {$12!) | Shoes: Nine West | Sunnies: Vogue {gift from my boyfriend} | Necklace: F21 | Bracelets: F21 | Cuff: H&M

My friend and I went to a thrift store in Lincoln Park on Thursday.  We didn't have much time to shop, but I luckily stumbled upon this shift dress.  It's so comfortable and versatile - I can't wait to figure out other ways to style it!

Leopard & Lace

Shirt: Hollister | Skirt: J.Crew Factory | Shoes: Mossimo | Belt: Banana Republic | Tote: Cynthia Rowley {$89 at TJ Maxx!} | Sunnies: Vogue {gift from my boyfriend} | Necklace: Banana Republic {gift from my parents} | Bracelet: F21 | Ring: F21

There's something I love about this skirt.  You've already seen it here, but I wanted to give it a different look.  I like the soft lace paired with the edgy leopard print, and I think the wedges keep this outfit on the casual side.

My niece didn't necessarily want to be in the photos, but she couldn't resist handing me a flower!

Denim & Leopard

Blouse: H&M {similar here} | Skirt: J.Crew Factory | Shoes: Kenneth Cole | Purse: Coach {gift from my boyfriend} | Necklace: F21 | Bangles: JCP and F21 | Lips: Revlon Really Red {matte finish}

I love taking casual pieces and dressing them up with fun jewelry and a cute skirt.  I usually pair this shirt with colored skinnies, but I love how it looks with my leopard pencil skirt!

Neon Shorts & Gingham Top

Shirt: J.Crew Factory | Shorts: I 'Heart' Ronson ($18!) | Sandals: Mossimo | Belt: Banana Republic | Watch: Geneva, purchased at Juniper | Bracelet: purchased at JCP | Necklace: purchased at Juniper | Ring: gift from my mom | Sunglasses: Vogue (gift from my bf) | Wallet: Coach (gift from my bf) 

My roommate and I decided to take a break from packing up our apartment to get fro-yo and take a walk around campus.  I have a slight obsession with frozen yogurt (this may have been my third one in the past 3 days...) and a new fro-yo place opened up a couple days ago.  Since it is within walking distance from our apartment, my roommate and I decided to scout it out.  It was (by far) the best frozen yogurt I've eaten so far!

I chose to wear a comfy J.Crew button up and vibrant shorts for our little excursion.  The weather has been unusually beautiful for Indiana in May, so I decided to take advantage of my last few days on campus and show off my new shorts!

Well Balanced

Sunglasses: Vogue (gift from my bf) | Shirt: J.Crew Factory | Shorts: J.Crew Factory | Shoes: Nine West | Watch:  Fossil (gift from my bf)

My older sister and I took her 2 year old daughter to the park today.  I knew whatever I wore needed  to be comfortable yet stylish, so I opted for super comfortable chino shorts and a button up.  The feminine and preppy shorts paired with the fierce leopard print shirt created the perfectly balanced outfit for a beautiful spring day!

Thanks for reading!!

She's all smiles at the park!
