Patterned Prints for Summer


Casual in Cutoffs


Pretty in Pale Pink | Pantone Color of the Year

Okay okay I know the official color of the year is Rose Quartz (which actually is the exact stone in this necklace).


I love when people do looks all in one color so I decided to try it out myself!  In my favorite pink of course!

Casual Campus OOTD


 As you know from this post, I graduated!! The day before graduation I went around campus with my boo for one last time.  And naturally I had to take some #ootd pictures during our final tour ;)



I wore what is now one of my favorite Aqua (from Bloomingdales) dresses.  It is so light and perfect for summer!  It's the perfect fit up top and just the right amount of flowy on the bottom.  The waistline is a lace cutout for a super feminine touch.


My sunglasses, while a little crooked, were just $2!  Totally worth it for some simple gold aviators - they go with everything.


The picture below is right outside one of our favorite study spots - not too sad about leaving that spot!


These steps lead into my major's building, I'll kind of miss that building, but when I go back in the future I'll definitely be visiting this area.


The main road through campus, I wonder how many times I walked/biked/road the bus up this hill?


If you're about to head to college, remember to enjoy every minute!  I took a picture like the one above each year I was there and I can't believe how fast the time has gone by.  College is the hardest thing you will do in your life so far (well maybe it will depend on your major, but I bet they're all pretty hard!  If you're doing engineering like me then you can trust me - it is hard!) but it is also a lot of fun.  Even those late nights in the library are some pretty good memories.  

Don't forget to Sparkle!

Black + Gold


There are two color combinations that I can not live without: Navy and White and Black and Gold.  To me those are 'neutral' and you can build any outfit starting with either of those as a base.



Somehow every time I go shopping I end up with an arm full of black clothes with me in the dressing room!  It's just such a flattering color and I am absolutely OBSESSED!


Last time I went to the mall I purchased this dress at Bloomingdale's, it is from Aqua, my all time favorite brand!  I have SO many Aqua dresses that I need to share with you all.  You can not really tell in the pictures but this fabric has little embossed hearts all over it - so cute.


This is turning into a favorites post because my necklace is from my favorite subscription service - Rocksbox!  This Slate necklace is just so beautiful, so simple yet such a statement.

I love my gold boyfriend watch to go with every single outfit!  My chain bracelet matches perfectly in color and style.  If you go back up to see my shoes you can see the detail on my sandals is exactly the same as my bracelet!  What a fun coincidence that discovery was! 

    


Side note: I just finished writing this post, saved and closed my browser.  Then it hit me that my wedding colors are black, white, and gold!  I just can't escape it and I don't want to!
