Stylish Sundays: Holy Smoke

I’m currently sick right now, because you know it’s fall, and as soon as it even gets chilly outside, I’m ill. However these photos were taken before my birthday, when I was completely healthy.

Top: Bethany Mota For Aeropostale, Jeans: High Waisted Aeropostale Jeggings, Shoes: Keds

On My Face: Nars Tinted Moisturizer, Hourglass Ambient Lighting Blush, The Balm Mary Lou Manizer Highlighter, Rimmel London Scandaleyes Eyeliner, Makeup Forever Smokey Extravagant Mascara, Lancome Rouge In Love Madame Tulip

Necklace: Tiny Owl from F21, Nails: Sugar Plums from China Glaze

I haven’t shopped at Aeropostale in ages, but they’ve revamped everything in the store, and I definitely found a couple things that I’m completely in love with. Like these jeans. They both look and feel amazing. But the best part of this outfit is the tee. I didn’t give the Bethany Mota Collection a second glance when it came out, because honestly I felt to old to be shopping at Aerpostale, but I noticed this top in their sale section, liked what it said, and when I tried it on feel completely in love with it.

Fashion and Happy Things! Stylish Sundays: Holy Smoke

And of course my Grey Keds are still my favorites, but I definitely want to still get a black pair and a red pair. However, my husband did just buy me some amazing boots from H&M that I’m currently wearing to death, so these aren’t getting as much love as they should be.

Have you bought anything recently that you were pleasantly surprised by?

Stylish Sundays: Back To School

It’s back to school time everywhere, which always makes me nostalgic for when I was little. Not high school, but 3rd grade because that was my favorite year ever. Back to School then meant new crayons and saddle shoes and fresh pencils.

That year I probably wore something very 90′s like maybe plaid pants with a peplum and suspenders and a shirt that had a now on it. (No seriously, that’s what I wore. Stop laughing, it was cute…then)

So I decided that I’d put together an outfit that is wear if I were going back to school today.

Shirt: Feed for Target Skirt: The Limited Shoes: Old Navy (but a present from a friend) Necklace: Gift from a friend.

I love this outfit. The top fulfills my need to do good, because it was part of Feed’s Target campaign. If you don’t know what Feed is or what they do, there is more information here.
I’ve had this skirt for a while now and it’s a bit to big so I felt like I could never make it work. I wore it once before here. But I didn’t love how it turned out. However my dad taught me to sew so I took it in a bit, and now it’s perfect.
And these booties were a gift from my sister in law T. I absolutely adore these boots and they’re perfect for fall.

On my face: Nars Pure Radiance Tinted Moisturizer, Makeup Forever HD Setting Powder, Nars Creamy Radiant Concealer, The Balm Frat Boy blush, Marc Jacobs The Lolita Palette, YSL Shocking Mascara, Rimmel Scandaleyes Eyeliner in Black and Nude, Hourglass Liquid Lipstick in Rose.

Hair: Curled with a Flat Iron

And of course since it’s back to school I had to wear my pen necklace that Mrs. Cannady gave me. It’s my favorite necklace.

Stylish Sundays: Summer Love

The pictures were taken before I cut my hair, and I have a few more sets of photos that were pretaken that will go up soon.

Tank: Aerie Summer Love Tank, AE Jeans from Years ago, Sandals from Wet Seal also really old Necklace from a website that no longer exists.

I bought the Summer Love Tanks from Aerie to do yoga in, but the other day was laundry day so I pulled this tank out of my drawer, these old jeans and grabbed random shoes from my closet, then I decided it was cute and couldn’t remember why I never wear those jeans. Then I sat down. These are Low Rise Jeans, and I just haven’t been a fan of them since freshman year of High School.

On My Face: Chanel Vita Lumiere Aqua, Nars Radiant Creamy Concealer, Makeup Forever HD Setting Powder, The Balm Frat Boy Blush, Benefit Watts Up Highlighter, Marc Jacobs The Lolita Palette, YSL Shocking Mascara, Hourglass Lush Extreme Sheen Lipgloss

I found a random bottle of the Vita Lumiere Aqua in the back of my drawer the other day that still had some left in it. Wearing it really made me miss it, and I can definitely see repurchasing this again very soon.

I braided two small braids on either side of my head, twisted some hair from next to each braid loosely around them and then pinned them together at the back of my head. I finished it with some Not Your Mother’s Beach Babe Texturizing Sea Salt Spray. I really liked how it turned out and am interested to see how this style will look with my short hair.

My Nails were Deborah Lippmann’s Blue Orchid, which is my current favorite blue polish.

And a close up of my sandals. On my toes is Zoya’s Robin. I bought this polish because I saw it on Aria on Pretty Little Liars and she’s one of my favorites. Spencer’s my other favorite.

What’s your go to laundry day outfit? Or are you like me and just do laundry when you realize you have nothing you normally wear left?

Stylish Sundays: Keds Again

This is probably one of my favorite outfits right now. I’m pretty sure I just wore this to run some errands, but I must admit since I bought this tee it’s in almost constant rotation. I’m so in love with it.

Tee: Gilly Hicks (Similar), Pants: H&M (Similar), Shoes: Keds (bonus they’re on sale.)

Hair Flat ironed.

Makeup: Nars Sheer Glow, Nars Radiant Creamy Concealer, Hourglass Ambient Lighting Blush, Marc Jacobs The Lolita Palette, YSL Baby Doll Mascara, Rosebud Salve lipbalm

Key Necklace: Gift from a Friend

I know, I keep showing these Keds. Really they’re my current favorites. They’re so comfortable and perfect for everyday wear. I have so many other shoes that are being ignored right now, but time and time again I’m pulling these shoes out. They’re just so cute with everything, but I have to say I love them best with cuffed trousers like I’m wearing them here.

What’s your summer go to look? I pretty sure that this is mine.

Stylish Sundays: June Gloom

I, unlike a lot of people, am a huge fan of June Gloom. It means that I can do things like wear a Cardigan in June, which is basically summer. The Gloom seems to have passed for now, but here’s what I wore earlier this week when it was still rainy and gloomy.

Cardigan: Madewell Tee: V.S. Pink Jeans: Gap Shoes: Keds

On My Face: Nars Pure Radiant Tinted Moisturizer, Hourglass Hidden Concealer, Hourglass Ambient Lighting Blush, Marc Jacobs The Lolita Palette, YSL Shocking Mascara, YSL Gloss Volupte

Hair: Flat Ironed and pulled back with an Emi-Jay Hair Tie

Necklace: Kate Spade

I love this cardigan, I’ve worn it a few other times and it still remains a favorite.

I am still obsessed with my keds. I promise this won’t be the last you see of them this summer. They’re just so comfortable and go with so much of my closet.

What do you do when summers gloomy? Dress for the weather in bright colors, or pretend it’s summer anyway and freeze in a tank and shorts?
