Hey my loves! Out of all the trends I've been seeing this spring, one that I promised myself I would get my hands on is jogger pants! One thing that I adore about these pants is their comfy-casual feel. Not to mention, they're super versatile for those days when you want to switch it up to something classy and sassy! In the look I decided to rock, I went for both--something comfy-casual, yet classy and sassy. One of my absolute favorite prints this time of year is floral, so once my eyes landed on these babies I was in fashion heaven! I also loved the feminine, dainty vibe the print gave to these pants, so it was a win-win for me. When wearing printed bottoms, I always like to keep things simple on the top, so I opted for a basic black v-neck t-shirt. To mix in some girly sass, I went with my chic black single-sole heels and threw in these pink and gold bracelets--and I couldn't forget a midi ring so that my hands wouldn't feel so naked (haha)! I fell in love after styling this outfit and I can't wait to create more jogger looks like this. What are some ways that you ladies style your jogger pants?

Hey everyone! This season for me has been all about color, color, and more color! As I'm sure most of you can tell from the title of this post, I've been having a huge orange crush lately. This shade is quite different from the usual bright pops of color I'd be wearing, and to be honest, I love it! It's amazing how it just warms up my skin and gives me that summery, sun-kissed glow. So when I found this Portofino blouse in this shade, I just knew I couldn't resist. I was feeling casual-chic vibes today, so I paired this blouse with some basic skinny jeans. I love a good pair of skinnies--you can dress them any way you want, and they're amazing at slimming those legs and flattering your figure in all of the right places. I normally would've gone for a cool statement necklace, but since my shirt is so busy at the top with its pockets and buckles, I added in these multi-colored bracelets for a contrast of color. The mix of brights (yay for orange!) and neutrals in this jewelry is EVERYTHING--especially with both looks being so popular this time of year. Lastly, I went with these dark brown wedges to add to the neutral mix. For my petite women out there, I'm a firm believer in a chic pair of wedges! They're perfect for elongating our legs, plus feeling/looking a few inches taller never hurt anyone :) Casual-chic never looked so flirty to me with this look! Do you have a color crush this spring?

Hello, May! I felt a bit on the relaxed-chic side of things, and I definitely didn't want to go for anything blah and boring. So I turned it up a notch by going for some brights! If you ask anyone close to me what my favorite color is, they would be quick to tell you that I actually don't have a favorite--shocking, huh? I've always been that girl that could never like just one color. Instead, there are several--mainly brights and pastels--that capture my heart. Since florals and brights are in this spring and summer, I opted for a cute, flowy tank top...in tropical florals! One thing that I absolutely adore about this top is the vast array of colors--yellow, red, mint, lavender...these are shades that I can NOT resist (haha). Plus, they serve as the perfect attention-grabber and this tank is super flirty! The pleats on the front and zipper detailing on the back make for a creatively-chic finish to this piece. To add in a bit more of that fab and chic factor, I wanted to incorporate these pastel bangles, which are in mint, lavender, and gold...and of course my midi rings! As I said before, I wanted to go for something relaxed and chic, so to master the relaxed part to this look, I went for a pair of dark-wash skinny jeans and gave them a simple cuff. To put the cherry on top, I threw in these awesome mint Converse sneakers...a.k.a. Chuck Taylors. These babies add the perfect touch of relaxed and chill. Not to mention, the mint color on these shoes allows for a stylish tomboy edge! This look definitely had me feeling laid-back, yet springtime fine! How do you ladies style your relaxed-chic looks for Spring? I'd love to know :)

Hey everyone! Lately I've been feeling a bit on the chill, laid-back side. Usually, I would just go for my trusty pair of skinnies or a baggy pair of sweats and call it a day...but I didn't want to wear "the usual" and I definitely wasn't trying to "bum it out". Yeah, I've been craving the loose and comfy look--maybe even a bit masculine--but I still wanted to keep my feminine appeal going. This is where the idea of boyfriend jeans came into play. This trend has been all over the place this Spring, and it's definitely one that I've always wanted to style, so I figured now was the perfect time! Even though I could easily go to the mall and buy a pair, I told myself, "Why not save a few dollars and re-create the look yourself?"--And that's just what I did! To get this look down, I used a pair of dark-wash jeans that I've had in my closet for a while and rolled the legs into a messy bubble cuff. To give it more of a baggy, masculine feel, I slightly ruffled the bottom of the legs. I wanted to keep this vibe going while maintaining my feminine touch, so I paired my jeans with a super sweet, black and white cropped sweatshirt and some chic single-sole heels. A bit of gold arm candy goes a long way, so I mixed in a gold cuff, a few stylish bangles, and midi rings (I love the "midi" trend--especially on jewelry)!

One of the most important details in this look is the message on the sweatshirt, "Hope". Over time, I've realized that this point in my life is the most important in my journey to get to where I ultimately want to be. Yes, I've had my obstacles and struggles, and to be honest, I still face some now. As a young woman trying to find her way, these things are definitely expected. But instead of stressing out about what I have not accomplished or how far I have to go, I thank God for every moment, all that I have achieved, and how far I've come. I look forward to all of the great things to accomplish in the future and all of the memories I can make from them, taking it one day at a time. As long as I keep hope and faith strong in my heart and mind, I know that anything is possible! :)

With festival season kicking off, I'm sure many of you can tell by the title of this post where my outfit inspiration came from. Coachella, one of the season's biggest music and arts festivals in California, started this past weekend. Unfortunately, I was unable to attend, so I've been living vicariously through all of the posts of the festival-goers that I've been keeping up with online. But that didn't stop me from getting into the spirit of things with this outfit! With this Spring being all about brights and neons, I went for this boho-chic crochet top in mint. This color has quickly become one of my favorites for this time of year. Not only is it unique and extra refreshing, but it gives the perfect pop of color to any spring look. I love the mix of tribal print and crochet in this top--so earthy and festival-ready! I decided to pair this with jeans since it was a bit on the breezy side today. My favorite part about this look is how I dressed around my top. You can never go wrong with chic and cool accessories, and anyone who knows me knows that my collection of them is endless! This multi-color geometric necklace is the perfect contrast to my top. It's full of life and its many colors provide some amazing colorblocking for this look. For an extra pop, I went with this gold Aztec cuff bracelet. I was so into styling this outfit that I didn't realize until later how well the cuff and my shirt match each other. It's amazing the new ideas that are created and how everything just comes together when you get lost in doing what you love. For the finishing touch, I added these comfy gladiator sandals. With so many cool pairs out there this season, these fit this look perfectly. They definitely help bring out that boho/tribal vibe even more. I'm so looking forward to rocking this outfit to the next festival I go to!
