Hearts on my Sleeve ♡

Blouse: Forever 21, Similar Here // Jeans: Hollister // Shoes: Bongo (only black & tan are currently available)  Purse: Dooney & Bourke

I am obsessed with high waisted jeans right now! These are from Hollister, and if you read my previous post you will notice that those were from Hollister as well and actually high waisted. I just think they are perfect for just about any outing! AND they are actually super comfortable. You can wear just about anything with them like a cute crop top with some strappy brown wedges all the way to a sweet blouse tucked in, like I am wearing here! 

If you are interested in getting a some jeans like this, Hollister always has a good sale going on! If you keep checking the website you will eventually see their sale that they do every few weeks where all jeans are $25! That is when I always buy mine :)

EDIT: I saw that Hollister is having a sale today (4/29) where all Jeans are $29 ... I am hoping that this isn't the "new" sale price and we will see the $25 again but we will see! 

Stripes & Converse

 The weather has been a little crazy recently. Last week was full on summer and this week is a little chilly with some wind! I really don't mind though, especially if the weather allows me to throw on a cute chunky sweater! This is one of my favorites from Forever 21, it is actually made pretty well and is pretty heavy. I am not a huge fan of spending too much money on sweaters since I live in a perpetual summer but when I do, Forever 21 is the place to go :) I believe this is currently sold out, but I will link similar items below!

I have shared a few photos here and there of my re-decorated room but thought that it was time to sit down and put together a blog post as well as a mini room tour video for all of you! 

 I was hesitant for awhile to repaint my room, mostly because I was going to have to paint over my favorite color that a) took forever to find  and b) it had been on my walls for almost 8 years.

pictures of my old room >> (one, two, three)

Anyways, here it is! I am going to link as many of the items below each photo above! If I am unable to find a product, I will link something similar :)

ps.. This paint color is called Grayish by Sherwin Williams

Grey & Cheetah

Jacket: Target // Dress: Bungalow123 // Shoes: Steve Madden // Purse: Dooney & Bourke

It has felt like summer these last few days! I wanted to stay cool while I ran some errands, & this dress from Bungalow 123 is perfect! Best thing about this dress is that you can either dress it up with some cute wedges or a cute pattern like I did above with the Cheetah print :) Or you can even throw some converse on for a casual day of shopping! I love it.

Fridays are for cats ... on your skirt

Hello! Happy Friday everyone :) If you have been following me on instagram, tumblr, or any other social media platform you know that I am constantly changing what I am doing online. I just graduated from college and my original purpose of blogging (sharing my study tips) is becoming a little more difficult! So, I thought why not go back to what I love... which is sharing my outfits and anything fashion related. Obviously, I will still share as many study & school tips as I can but I have to make sure I stay happy in the process :)

Here are just a few photos of what I wore today! And if you can't tell.... my skirt has CATS on it.

Top: Forever 21/ Skirt: Urban Outfitters/ Purse: TJMaxx/ Boots: Steve Madden
