Tuesday- FIT Graduation

For the past month, I haven't been keeping up with my blog and I was so upset that I had to put it aside for the time being. All of May I have been working on finals projects, papers, and Final Exams! However, all of this proved to be worth it because on May 21st I graduated from College! I attended the Fashion Institute of Technology for 3 years and finally have gotten my Associates Degree in Fashion Merchandising and Management. Now I could go on and tell you all the hardships I went through to get my degree but, instead I'm going to share some of my pictures from that day with you.

After what felt like the longest car ride of my life (only 2 hours), we made it to the Javits Center in NYC where my graduation was held. I was surrounded by my family who have helped me he most during my time at school. I also graduated with my best friends and could not have asked for a better day.

Unfortunately, I have no pictures of me in my dress without my gown on as well. I will most likely be doing another post about my outfit soon.

Thank you

Tuesday- Steal her Look: Candice Swanepoel

Candice's everyday style is very classic and laid back. Plus, she always looks put together. Considering she's a model, would we expect anything less? I love how she is only using basics in neutral colors to create this look. Because all of these pieces are basics, the look can be transformed from a day look to a night look with just a switch of accessories. This style of skirt looks good on every body type and you can change the shirt to something a little looser if you are wanting to hide something. 

White Silk T-shirt: Joe Fresh

Rust Textured Skirt: H&M

Brown Sandals: Target

Grey Wallet: Target

Brown Sunglasses: Forever21

Thank you.

Tuesday- Met Gala 2015

The Metropolitan Museum of Art hosted it's Costume Institute Gala 2015 on May 4th. This is a huge fashion inspired event that many people from the industry attend. Each year the Met hosts the Gala to showcase their new Fashion Exhibit. This years theme/exhibit is "China: Through the Looking Glass".

Everyone in the industry gears up to see who will be wearing the best and craziest fashions of the night, all inspired this year by oriental fashion. Some people went very literal and others went more laid back with their interpretations. Here are some of my favorite looks...

Georgia May Jagger

Jennifer Lawrence

Sarah Jessica Parker

Bee Shaffer

Emily Blunt

Rihanna

Jennifer Lopez

Cara Delevingne

Thank you

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

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. I find it interesting that their clothing options are not far from adults options. I think it's adorable to see young children/toddlers dressed like their parents (yes, I'm one of those people). I wanted to share some cute children's outfit ideas of my own for Spring/Summer.

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!

Light Mint Mini Skirt: Topshop

Brown Crossbody Purse: Coach

Sunglasses: Forever21

Pearl Necklace: Target

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

Tuesday- New Sunglasses

I mentioned when I posted about my new Eyeglasses that I also purchased Sunglasses. Guess what?! They are here and I'm so happy I picked the frames I did. They look so good.

I purchased a pair of Ralph Lauren Tortoise shell/Light Blue Cat-Eye Sunnies from LensCrafters. I personally think the Cat-eye shape suits a lot of different face shapes, especially if you have a rounder/fuller face.

It's been years since I've had a pair of sunglasses and even longer since I last liked my sunglasses. I honestly act like I'm a movie star when I put them on. I don't care what anyone says about that bit of information, I just love my sunnies! haha :)

Thank you

Tuesday: Steal Her Look- Emma Stone

I love Emma's laid back style. It's perfect for running errands on the weekend. With this warmer weather that has come upon us we won't be needing as many layers!

Most people don't like mixing Black and brown, I will admit to being one of those people, but I've been gravitating more towards mixing them. The style rules have changed. Depending on the color brown you choose, it will look good! by keeping the colors all neutrals it makes the look sophisticated. Change up the scarf or bag to make the look yours, but I would recommend keeping the colors to black, brown, and white.

Sunglasses: BooHoo

Black Lightweight Sweater: H&M

Straight Leg Jeans: Gap

Brown Boots: DSW

Taupe Scarf: Forever21

Reversible Tote Bag: Target

Thank you

Tuesday- My New Glasses!

This weekend I went to Lenscrafters and got new eyeglasses which I am in love with. I have always worn eyeglasses that were of a more small rectangular shape and I was slowly hating my old ones. These are a bit bigger but I think they suit my face way better than my old ones! Also, Lenscrafters has a great variety of brands and prices. Plus all of their frames are very classic and yet still current. I also purchased sunglasses but they are being shipped so I will show you them once they are here!

I purchased a pair of Coach "Fannie" eyeglasses in Dark Tortoise with Green inner arms. 

Thank you

Tuesday- Places to Visit

Since this winter has been extremely cold and we get snow almost every weekend now I've been thinking of all the warm places I want to visit in the future. I can't wait to be able to travel around the world an experience new things. But a few places that are on the top of my list are...

Santorini, Greece

Mykonos, Greece

Sydney, Australia

Port Douglas, Australia

Sorrento, Italy

I hope this brings you some warm weather cheer!

Thank you
