how to wear birkenstock sandals-the preppy way!

July 14, 2015

hey guys!

so as I have said before, I own a pair of birkenstocks, now people either love how these sandals look, or hate how they look, I personally love them! here are some cute ways to style birkenstocks!

here we go:

#1: The Preppy Way: You can pair birks with a cute sweater and a nice pair of pants. You can pair a oxford shirt with a sweater and jeans with white birks.

#2: The Casual Way: You can pair a cute pair of patterned flow-y shorts with a plain tee and birkenstocks for a cute casual outfit. You could also do a plain colored shorts with a patterned shirt.

#3: The Cute Way: You can go very plain, but very cute with this denim chambray shirt with these cute shorts!

#4: The Jeans Way: You can also go casual by pairing birkenstocks with boyfriend jeans! I like mine with the slim boyjean in kinsey wash from madewell.

#5 The Dress-y Way: You could also pair your birkenstocks with a dress. They are actually like super cute in this way.

hope you liked this!

Spruce Up Your Room for Summer

July 10, 2015

hey guys!

Today I wanted to share with you guys how I like to spruce up your room for summer! LETS GO!

1. Succulents/Terrarium Planters: I personally think that succulents and terrariums are the bomb. They are pretty plants with basically no maintanence so they are great decorations! Here is the terrarium pictured.

2. Nail Polish Storage: Okay, you guys are going to think this is crazy, but I actually think that this Nail Polish Storage is really cute and stylish. So I own WAYYY to many nail polishes, but I think just organizing the colors and puting them on my night table is just really cute! Here is where you can buy this. 

3. Throw Pillows: This is such an easy way to make your room summery! I just pair cute quirky pillows that match with my plain pink duvet! I paired these two pink pillows and they match so well! Hello Beautiful Pillow and Flamingo Pillow.

4. Picture Hangers: This is just a simple way to decorate your room and add a little personal touch. I love to print pictures of me and my friends on this! Here it is.

I hope you guys enjoy this! And Comment if you like any of these ideas, or tag me on a photo on instagram if you do any of these things!

#3: iPhone 5S case, Caseology® [Clear back Bumper]: This is such a versatile case. You can put a monogram sticker on it and its such an easy way to have a personalized case.

#4: Zoya Delight Collection Sampler: These colors are my favorite nail polish colors. I love these pastels and the Zoya collection is so healthy for your nails!

#5: Personalized Large 3-Initial Letter Monogram Necklace: I like this necklace because its nice quality and its a monogram necklace. I like how the letters are together.

Summer Gift Guide for Girls

hey guys!

So I know summer isn’t really a gift giving season, but there are plenty of birthdays, and its harder to find gifts! here we go:

1. Shoes are always a good option! I like these Jack Rogers and these Heels. These are both very summery shoes, so they can practically open their gift and put them on!

2. Summery iPhone Cases are also great! I like these three (1) (2) (3) These are another one of those things that are perfect for summer, just open and put on your phone.

3. A Pretty Purse is such a good present! I like this Kate Spade Maisie Purse. This is just so pretty and summery.

4. Bangles and Bracelets tend to be a cheaper and really nice option for gifts! I like these ones from Stella and Dot (1) and Kate Spade (1) (2).

5. Athletic Shorts are also a great option for a Gift! I love these ones from Krass and Co. and They are just so easy to wear at home, and oh so comfortable! and for a bonus you will get 15% off when you follow this link and pick which shorts you want!
