Tuesday- My Week In Instagrams

April has been a pretty relaxed month for me compared to what May will be bringing. I thought it would be nice to share my Instagram pictures for the past week with you so you can see what I'm up to. I went NY for school, started redecorating my room, cuddled with my dog, and spent some time soaking in the nice weather.

I can't wait to share with you everything happening in May. Most notable... I'm graduating, so expect tons of pictures! 

Thank you

Fashion Friday- Spring 2015 Clothing Haul

When the weather started to get warmer I realized something, I have nothing to wear! Alright, that might be a bit dramatic. Sure, I have lots of clothes; however, they are all basics. I was looking in my closet and did not see any eye catching pieces. Over the past couple of weeks I have been picking up clothing that I can wear through Spring and Summer. I went to H&M and Old Navy to browse their racks and came away with some great pieces.


From H&M, I purchased two sleeveless button downs in a sheer fabric, a sleeveless floral print crop top with crochet at the bottom, a white short sleeve eyelet crop top, and a white skater skirt.

At Old Navy, I purchased a navy print skirt that can be worn at your natural waist or hips, a pair of the Rockstar super stretch skinny jeans (which are the comfiest jeans I've ever worn), and a mint print sleeveless v-neck shirt. 

When I was looking through all the clothing I tried to think of what outfits I could make from what I already owned and within my new purchases. I think I have a few cute outfits and I can't wait to wear them throughout the coming months.

Thoughtful Thursday- Impossible Till It's Done

Source

This week has proved to be a struggle. School has kicked back in in full swing! I only have One month left but it's going to kick my butt. I have so many projects to do and papers to write. I'm going to pull myself together the best that I can and get this all done. Right now it may not seem like I will accomplish everything, but I have always finished my work in the past. 

Hopefully, This saying will stick with you whenever you have times where it seems that you can not accomplish something. 

Thank you,

Tuesday- Children's: Spring 2015 Clothing

I'm passionate about all aspects of fashion, whether it's women's, men's or children's fashion. More recently, I've been starting to obsess over children's fashion.

Thoughtful Thursday- Be Silly

Source

If there is one thing I've learned from working with young kids, it's to have fun. Kids are so honest, carefree, and curious. They have no worries in the world. I have tried to take on a bit of this personality in the sense of being silly and joking around whenever I can. It's puts me in such a great mood to let loose. When I saw this quote I was super excited because it's everything I've been trying to do recently in my life. 

I hope you will also start thinking like a child and enjoy life more.

Thank you

Tuesday- Steal Her Look: Rosie & Kate

After seeing pictures of Rosie Huntington Whiteley and Kate Bosworth in the Coach Tent at Coachella, I was obsessed. They both looked so chic and radiant. I love how they both pair white shirts with fun mini skirts. I think it's a classic look that can be played around with!

Thoughtful Thursday- Work Hard

Source

These past two weeks have been a time for me to relax and catch up on my life. I was on Spring Break the week before Easter and this week I'm slowly getting back into all my school work. With my time off I was getting to enjoy the little things in life that I sometimes take for granted. The weather was amazing in the 60s, the plants started to bloom, and I actually took a look around me at the wonderful city I was spending lots of my time in. 

I usually head to New York on the train, get out of the station, head right for school, then right back to the train station. I never let myself see where I am. Sure I notice changes like stores or billboards, but I don't really take in that I'm back in the city that I love so much. I have certainly spent more time taking in my surroundings this week and it was well worth it!

I have a new found love in the work I'm putting out on here. I have fully committed to not being upset with myself if I don't get a post out everyday. I much rather only put out a few great posts than a bunch of mediocre posts. I am so excited to work even harder on my blog in the Spring and Summer months, as I hope the warmer weather will help my inspiration. 

Thank you

Tuesday- One Direction Makeup

For Christmas, I received One Direction Midnight Memories Makeup Collection. Yes, you read that correctly, One Direction has a makeup line out. I was waiting till I used all the products before I talked about this makeup collection. I was pleasantly surprised in the makeup's quality. The pigmentation and formulas for all the products is good. The makeup comes in a tin box with an art slipcover. 

The Midnight Memories Collection contains...

An "Midnight Memories" eyeshadow pallet with 5 shades,

The "Better Than Words" Eye/body Crayon in Black,

The "Little Black Dress" Volumizing Mascara in Black,

The "Right Now" Silver Metallic Nail Polish,

The "Through the Dark" Glitter Red Lipgloss,

The "Best Song Ever" Red Lipstick,

And Body Stencils.

After using all the products, I can say they are worth buying if you know someone who is an avid One Direction fan. I think the money is well spent on this product. The collection of makeup in each Box is combined to be a complete look. I would recommend this for teens just starting to use makeup as well as people who are more experienced. 

Thank you

Coachella is one of the biggest music festivals held in America the spans two weekends. People from all over the world fly to the Los Angeles/Palm Springs area. Starting this week people will be packing into hotels waiting for the madness to begin. But something else that festival goers are doing is shopping!

Coachella is well known for festival goers unique bohemian rock style. We see a lot or fringe, flowy skirts, and wide brim hats. I defiantly think we will be seeing tons of crochet and fringe at this year's festival. Here is a look at last year's fashion and a bit of insight into what you will be seeing this time around.
