today is my LAST FRIDAY IN DC! so i’m doing some live updates on my instagram story with all the cool plans i he for today! definitely CHECK THAT OUT! but before that, i’ve got an outfit post for you! i usually share some super cute outfits but not outfits which i’d call “everyday” outfits, so using that knowledge i’ve styled an outfit today which is more like most of my everyday looks!

madewell cardiff checkerboard sweater / levis wedgie high wasted jeans / urban outfitters bdg faux sheerling jacket / velvet ribbed socks / l.l. bean 8′ bean boots

almost everyday for me has been looking like, a pair of my favorite levi’s wedgie jeans (i have 3 different colors and they’re the only style i like) pairing with a sweater, jacket and some comfy but versatile shoes! today i styled this look with bean boots! i just got my bean boots (because i finally needed them) but no lies i’ve wanted them for YEARS because all those new england preppies wore them, and NOW since i have my own i wear them all the time! i picked this madewell sweater because i saw it online and scrolled past it, and then scrolled back up! on first glance i didn’t like it, but now i really do!

enjoy & happy shopping!

hey all!

its my LAST DAY OF CLASS today! like of the FIRST SEMESTER OF COLLEGE is almost over, we have finals and then its officially over! i’m really sad about that because – honestly – i couldn’t have asked for a better first semester. i made amazing friends, have had some pretty life changing experiebnces and grown in practice of my art. its been a whirlwind but we’re finally to christmas and i’m sharing my wishlist today!

to be frank with y’all it was REALLY DIFFICULT to make this wishlist this year because i find myself pretty content with what i have for the moment – and although i won’t deny that there is definietly stuff i always ‘want’ i think this year i have moved away from that because those ‘wants’ are something i see in the road ahead of me, and they’re not really what fits into my lifestyle today. but regardless, i did find some stuff to share with everyone!

as always, a note to all my readers – this post does not mean i own any of the above, or that i will buy any of the above. it just means that i like it visually and (unless noted) i do not own it; all that i will write about is stuff i hear from friends and other users of the product as well as the visual aspects of the product which i will mention in the comment below!

here we go!

washington dc notebook / staud bisset bucket bag / casetify saffiano leather personalized apple watch band / elago charging hub / slip silk face mask / fuzzy pompom hat / skin gym rose quartz roller set / drunk elephant big reveal kit / lululemon yoga mat / ‘beverly’ LA tee / girlfriend collective paloma sports bra / the daily edited personalized leather phone case / comme des garcons high top converse

so, you see it! off of this list i’ve been wanting the staud bag for a LONG WHILE, (so you’ve probably seen a lot of it on m&mh) but i’d most like the charging station so i can organize my cords for my phone, watch and headphones and the yoga mat because i’m taking a LSPA class next semester because i’m taking yoga! other than that, simply you could never go wrong with a sports bra (i wear one to run EVERYDAY) or a baby pink monogrammed phone case!

enjoy all!
