Wednesday Cravings



Just a couple things I've had my eye on this week. It's finals-grind time here in Iowa City, so finding time to take outfits pics has been hard, however you can follow along on my Instagram to see some of my looks and daily musings. I have some very exciting news that I've been waiting to share with all of you. Be sure to check back Monday!!

On Wednesday's we wear pink! Sorry, I had to....

I decided to go shopping in my closet this week. As much as I would love to hit the shops, it's easier and much more cost effective to look in my closet and pull pieces I haven't worn in awhile. When I pulled this dress out of my closet, I think my heart may have skipped a beat. I totally forgot I had this in my closet and it was exactly the kind of dress I was envisioning for a chilly morning! Long sleeve dresses with a fun print will definitely be a go-to during chilly morning walks to work. Additionally, cotton dresses can be easily dressed up or down. I would pair this dress with some white Chuck Taylors for a laid-back look or some awesome wedges to dress it up. My bow flats have been on-repeat lately and were super functional for a busy day. My pink vest also helped keep we warm, added a pop of brightness to my ensemble, and it didn't seem out of place even though it's my favorite winter accessory!

Have a great day! Thanks for stopping by.

Brunching..

Good morning! This weekend I attended my last-ever Theta Mom's Weekend. It was definitely bittersweet, but my mom and I had the best time! This was the outfit I wore to brunch on Saturday morning. It was a little chilly for sandals, but spring has arrived so sandals are my official protest to the cold weather we're experiencing. 

I'm most excited to wear stripes this spring. Whether it be dresses, skirts, tops, shoes - I love it all! It's easy to have stripes be the main focus, but it helps to add a solid bright color. Incorporating bright solids with stripes can help downplay the severity of the stripes while also highlighting the structure they bring to your outfit. 

Enjoy the day! Thanks for stopping by.
