via

Guys, seriously. 
I called this like a year ago but be honest with me, are overalls back? 
You can't tell me your junior high self isn't just a little bit excited. 






 * Oh yeah, those are wedding overalls! 


What do you guys think? Would you rock the overalls?

spring 2013 trend report: black and white




 Black and white is HUGE this year. This spring is all about bringing back the basics in your wardrobe whether its your jeans, nude nails, or having natural makeup. Being a simple girl, I am so happy about this. The best part about this trend is that I can still play up an outfit whenever I'm feeling spunky: the pop of a bright lip, standout shoes, chunky and colorful jewelry.

DVF lip clutch DIY by Sprinkles in Spring



When I first saw Diane Von Furstenberg's Carolina Lips Clutch Bag, I just about died. And then I saw that it was $345.00. I mean, seriously, how can anyone justify spending that much money on a bag, no matter how fabulous it is? I'll blame this way of thinking on me being a practical, penny-pinching, Minnesotan. Either way, I was still sad that those gold lips wouldn't find their way into my life..... UNTIL I came across this DIY project by Sprinkles in Spring. It's like it was meant to be, right? Looks like I'll be molding some lips in my near future! (Not really a sentence I ever imagined I'd say before)


perfect for valentine's day!

spring 2013 trend report: boxy cross body bags





Well ladies, time to start prepping your closets for spring! You have no idea how excited I am to throw out my salty boots and oversized knits. It's time for some color and shoes that show off my cute pedicures. Ah, warm weather, I miss you so. 

There are a lot of new and reoccurring trends popping up this spring. Over the next few weeks I'll be show casing some of them for you guys. Today is all about boxy cross body bags. They are everywhere lately! Don't let their casual feel fool you. You can still wear one of these bags for a night out - think white blouse, black cigarette pants, pumps, and anstudded crossbody. Just throw on some lipstick and you'll be all set for the night!

Would You.... Wedge Sneakers?


Wedge sneakers have been seen every where lately. I know they might seem intimidating. How do I style them? Can I pull them off? But, think of it this way: it could be the best of both words! You get the comfort and causality of a sneaker but you also get the height of a heel. What do you think? Is it a spring trend you can rock?

** Please forgive me for the quality of this photo. Naturally, I would spend an hour making this collage on my iPad only to upload it and have it be illegible. Oh, well. Ya win some, ya lose some.

Will I rock the wedge sneaker? Possibly. I'll get back to you.

Style Obsession: Kendi Everyday


To say that I'm obsessed with Kendi Everyday would be an understatement. If it were possible, and not creepy at all, I would somehow make her my best friend. She has the best style and is so funny. I enjoy every post of hers. Lately, I've noticed that she's been indulging (she thinks a little too much, I vote not enough) in the new trend of colored jeans. I love how she's not afraid to mix colors and prints. 



Check out her blog and trust me, you will not regret it.

pick pastels for date night





Pastels are back this spring! If you're too afraid to wear an entire outfit of these candy colors, then simply wear one item: a pair of mint skinnys or a sheer pink blouse. The above outfit would be an ideal date dress for me.
