Polka Dots and Mint

I absolutely love Disney. It just always puts me in a happy mood and brings out the kid in me (not that it ever left haha). Anyways, I recently went to Downtown Disney and I wanted to wear an outfit that fit well with the fun vibe but also agreed with the hot, humid weather. The final ensemble consisted of these super cute and fun polka dot shorts that are short enough to keep you cool but long enough to maintain a classy and somewhat conservative style, a light mint top, green strappy sandals, and my favorite teal purse. For accessories I am wearing a mint/ light teal watch, a chain statement necklace that has little turquoise rocks in it, and some nautical looking aviator sunglasses. And by nautical looking, I mean that it has a little anchor charm on it haha. I think this is a great stylish and girly summer outfit for vacation or even just going out to the mall! It was definitely comfortable and I think it matched the Disney theme well! Another thing I love about Disney would be the food. Oh. My. Gosh. Everything is just too cute, especially the Mickey Macarons. Besides that, I also found a really cute book called "The Little Dictionary of Fashion" by Christian Dior. I wanted it so badly, but I'm saving for a camera, and since my computer is almost full with all of my pictures and videos, I should probably invest in an external hard drive too. But anyways, I really hope you enjoyed this post, and I'm sorry I've been posting mostly videos lately. I got so excited starting my YouTube channel that I forgot how much I loved taking pictures and just blogging. So I hope you have a fab day!

Fourth of July 2014

Happy Independence Day for everyone who lives in the United States! I always love dressing up in red, white and blue and doing fireworks! Today I am wearing a sheer white floral top from TJ Maxx, a blue bubble necklace from Charming Charlie, a blue hair bow that I made, and a dark red skirt from Brandy Melville but you can't see it in the picture haha! You'll just have to imagine what it looks like because the minute I stepped out to take a full body picture, it started pouring rain outside. Anyways, I found this really cool layered drink idea on Pinterest and basically you fill a cup with ice then you pour in your different drinks. The one with the highest sugar content goes first (the red in my case) , and then you pour a drink with less sugar (the white) in the middle, and the last layer (the blue) will have the least amount of sugar. I used cranberry juice, coconut juice and Gatorade. And then I cut watermelon into stars to go on my favorite blue plate! :) I hope you guys liked my outfit and diy ideas and have a fabulous day!

Casual OOTD - Bass Pro Shops

 

I used to never like going to any other stores besides clothing stores and fabric stores, but now I'm pretty much open to going anywhere! One place in particular that I think is a really fun store would be Bass Pro Shops! It is literally soooo cool in there and its HUGE! I'm not even into fishing or hunting haha I just like looking at how they decorated, AND there's a huge fish tank too! So yeah, as you can tell, I went to Bass Pro Shops recently and I decided to make a post on my casual outfit of the day! I've been really loving the fashion kimono trend and when I found this knit kimono/ cardigan, I literally freaked! It's super perfect for spring!

OUTFIT DETAILS: knit kimono/cardigan (Ross), blue tank (Forever 21), fish necklace (Forever 21), leggings/ yoga pants (Aeropostale), cross body bag (Target), sandals (DSW), sunglasses (Urban Outfitters)

Hope you guys have a fabulous day and check out the video I filmed for this outfit here!

Explore

I love to explore. I enjoy going to nature parks, the beach, new neighborhoods, pretty much anywhere you can walk around and find new things. Besides physical exploration, I love to explore through books and, of course, fashion. They can take you places you've never dreamed of and help you discover adventure in ordinary settings. I recently just finished "Gulliver's  Travels" by Jonathan Swift and it was very enjoyable. I had to read it for my English class, but it felt like I was reading for pleasure because it was so interesting. If you haven't read it already and you like adventure books, I definitely recommend it!

Outfit Details: Teal Shirt (Kohls), Leather Jacket (Aeropostale), Orange Infinity Scarf (it was a gift), Jeans (American Eagle), Black Combat Boots (Target)
