Bohemian Spirit

Good morning! I am soo tired this morning. I feel like I could sleep for forever! Maybe I will wake up at some point haha. However, I am so excited I finally get to show you this outfit!! It has been sitting in my closet, waiting to be photographed in the perfect background. And I think I found it :). I absolutely love this arch and the courtyard behind it! I think it is one of the prettiest spots on campus. The best part is, it's sort of hidden away so a lot of people don't really see it. So it's a bit like it's all mine, even if I know that's not completely true. Moving on to the outfit...I have been loving this t-shirt dress since I purchased it. I love the maroon color for fall (or anytime really haha), the asymmetrical cut, and it's super flowy and flattering! The dress is also so easy to throw on and just walk out the door. Seriously, people always think dresses look so fancy, but in reality I didn't have to struggle with the skinny jeans, so the joke is on them haha :).







Dress and hat from Urban Outfitters, sandals are old.

Hope you all have a wonderful Sunday! Hugs <3

Details and Nail Polish

Hello everyone! Here are some pictures of this nail polish color I was obsessed with last fall, and I can already tell it will be another obsession this fall. I find it is a pretty neutral color that matches with almost everything. Also, it is not so high shine that it looks sparkly (it is definitely not matte though). Anyway, I just think it is super pretty a perfect for fall! The color is by O. P. I. and it's called "Silent Mauvie". The rings are the only two you will ever see me wear (I really should get more to match them because I love the stacked jewelry look). They are pretty simple, which is great for me because i never like too much sparkle or bling as you guys have probably noticed haha. I usually stick to thin gold jewelry because that is what looks best with my skin tone. The one on the right is from Charming Charlies, and the one on the left is from Nordstroms. I hope you all are having a wonderful week, and remember it's finally Friday!!! Hugs <3

White Baseball Hat

Hellooo!! Guess what daaayyy it is?! HUMP DAYYY!!! Haha sorry guys my Wednesday's are going to be a bit hectic this semester. I have a total of four classes today, and one of them is a lab. So we'll see how my usual Wednesday outfit post holds up. I may need to switch it to a Tuesday or a Thursday where I have more time to take pictures and write a good post. But we will handle that later :). Here is today's outfit. It's not the typical trendy post I usually save for Wednesday, but I thought I'd let you in on my two favorite clothing items for going to class. The first one is baseball hats. I love them soo much! They are perfect for an early morning, or when you just haven't been able to wash you hair and want to hide some of that mess in a cute way haha (this one is definitely me lol). This white one is definitely my favorite. It's so simple and goes with everything. It's great! The second item I love for class is cardigans. They are so super comfy, and if it's hot you can easily take them off in class or walking outside. Sorry you guys will be seeing a whole lot of cardigans in the future haha.

P. S. I hope you like my new brick wall background because Miami only has buildings with red brick or white brick haha. Hugs <3

Comfy Cute

Hey lovely readers! I didn't post yesterday because I was really stressed out about some stuff having to deal with school. Not exactly the first day I was intending to have. But today is way better, so I'm good :). Also, you know how people always try and look really cute the first day of classes? Well I went in about the total opposite direction and wore a work out tank top and crop leggings haha. So cute Jess. At least I was comfy though :). So today I looked a little nicer. I still wore cropped leggings because it's been a little chilly out today. But instead of my tank top I wore this super cute hoodie! (I know super cute and hoodie are words that I never use in the same sentence haha) But I love this top! It's not thick like a sweater, and it has a really flattering loose cut. And this olive/forest green color is everywhere for fall! I am completely obsessed with this green and maroon for fall. So be prepared to see a lot of it guys haha.







I love taking silly pictures sometimes haha. Top from a small boutique in Cleveland, leggings from LululemonHugs <3

Boyfriend Jeans

Good morning everyone! So here is my Sunday outfit post. I decided to take a risk and purchase something I normally wouldn't wear. I hopped on the band wagon and bought a pair of boyfriend jeans. While they may not be the most flattering cut on everyone, I think I did manage to find a pair that looks decent on me. And even if they only look okay, the comfortableness makes up for it! They are super soft and slouchy! I could seriously almost wear them as sweatpants. I cannot wait until the weather gets just a little cooler so I can wear them without overheating :/. I'll show you some pictures from my dorm room set up later this week! It's time for those back to school posts :).

Exciting!!

Heyyy! Today is going to be a really quick post because I am super busy! Between the movers coming to take all of our bigger stuff out of the house and packing everything I will need to take down to college with me tomorrow, I'm just about beat and its only 2:00 pm :'(. But this is a screenshot from a few days ago on my iPhone of my Instagram. And look who liked my picture!! Kenza Zouiten!! I know most of you probably don't know who she is...but maybe you do?? She is the biggest blogger in Sweden and also the designer of IvyRevel. She is one of my favorite bloggers to follow. She is so pretty, so much fun, and the outfits she puts together are just amazing!! Total hearts in eyes guys! Haha. So when I saw she liked my picture I jumped up, and started dancing. No joke. I was so happy haha. Anyway, I hope you are having a lovely day. As always, Hugs <3


(I'm sorry it's so small. I wasn't able to blur the names of everyone else on the screen, so I had to crop them out.)

Missing People and Places

Good morning everyone! So today I'm feeling a bit nostalgic. My little sister went off to college two days ago, and it is really weird not having her in the house with me. I'm usually one that is positive most of the time, but I miss her :(. And with everyone going back to school (including me), it means a close to summer :(. I'm going to miss the freedom of no school work preventing me from doing fun things with my friends, spending time with my family, and the warm weather. So here are some pictures of us from a trip to Lake Erie we took earlier this summer. My sister, mom, and I take this trip once a year to spend the weekend with my mom's best friend Sherri. We spend the weekend eating good food, having so many laughs, learning life lessons (no matter how you have eaten, there is always room for ice-cream haha), and journeying up to Put-In-Bay Island. It is definitely one of my favorite weekends of every year, and I wish I could have it more than once a year. But maybe that's one of the things that make it most special :).






Hope you all have had a lovely summer! Hugs <3

Good Vibes Only

Good morning! Here is an outfit I wanted to show because I think it is so fun! I would not normally wear this on an everyday basis, but if I were to go out, I would definitely wear this. However, I do plan on wearing these pants out and about once the weather gets cooler. I would just tone down the styling by ditching the heels for flats and the crop top for a more basic shirt. But let's get back to the pants because I think they are so fun and different! And on top of that, they are super comfy. It's like wearing sweatpants, but turned up a notch haha. I cannot wait until I can wear these around campus in the fall :)







Today I am going to meet my mom for lunch by her office, and it is supposed to be super hot today! Still haven't figured out if I want to wear a dress or shorts. But I'm always very last minute with my outfits haha. I always seem to pick something and then find something better. So I always end up switching my outfit. Does anyone else get dressed like that?? haha Hugs <3

Yesterday's Maxi Dress

Hello! I have so many cool outfits to show you coming up soon! The past week or two I have been in such an inspiration rut. I just had no idea what to post any more :(. But all of a sudden today a whole bunch of inspiration hit me! I cannot wait for everything coming up. Life just seems to be so good right now! Today I have been super productive. I got some work done for the blog, worked out, took my adorable dog for a walk, and got some little things done that needed to be completed before I move back in to college. Later today I think I'll pack more of my clothes for school, if not finish that. Getting things done is one of the best feelings ever!!

Yesterday I was so busy! I went to the doctors office to get a regular checkup. Then my sister, who also had her checkup, and I went to get lunch. I got a smoothie from Robeks. Their smoothies might be my favorite type of food ever haha. Then later I went to a photoshoot with my mom and sister. My mom's friend, Michael Wypasek, is a very talented photographer, who will do some fun shoots with us when he has time. I've shown you some of his work on my blog before :). Anyway, I don't want to tell you what some of the pictures are for yet because I'm really nervous about it. Ahhh! Hopefully I will know within a few days, but I'm really not sure when I will get the results. So just bear with me guys! Haha. After the photoshoot, we went out to a really nice restaurant called Hyde Park at Crocker Park. And oh my gosh guys the food!! It was hands down some of the best food I have had. I got crab cakes and split the lobster mac&cheese with my mom. Both were soo amazing! Words cannot describe them accurately haha. This is the dress I wore for the evening.






Totally love this dress btw! Hugs <3

Sunday Mode

Good morning everyone! I finally got my internet to connect with blogger after trying for 20 minutes. I was starting to worry I wouldn't be able to post this until after I got off work at 3 this afternoon :'(. I guess that's blogger karma for not posting the last two days haha. So here is some comfy inspiration for your Sunday. I know I plan on staying in lounge clothes all day long ;). This shirt is new, and it's super comfortable! The fabric is soo soft and stretchy. I also love the muted purple pastel color. It adds some color to my outfit without being overly bright. Today I paired it with snuggle shorts, but I would also pair it with some looser fitting denim shorts or boyfriend jeans to wear out of the house.

Today I really need to start making some progress in my To-Do List before I can leave for college. There are only 6 days until I move back in! So much to do in so little time! Who wants to join me in my productive Sunday mode? Maybe we can all get something done that's been sitting on our To-Do List for the past week or so :). Let me know what you're accomplishing this Sunday! Well, wish me luck guys. I'll update you tomorrow on how much progress I'm making haha.

New Hair

Hey there! So today I had a really beauty focused day haha. I finally got my eyebrows fixed after not having been done all summer. It's actually really crazy how you don't notice the difference when they're growing out because they grow so slow. But now that they are done, oh my gosh the difference it makes! Then I got my hair cut today as well :'(. I hate getting my hair cut because I always think they end up taking too much off. But I hadn't cut it since January, so it really needed to be done. I decided to try out the middle part today. I can't decide if I like it or not...What do you think??

Later tonight I'm going to the Feast of the Assumption. It is an Italian celebration, so the streets are lined with soo much good Italian food! My personal favorite is cavatelli and meatballs. Complete hearts in eyes! They also have bunch of other pastas, clams, Italian sausage, cannolis, casada cake, gelato...I could go on forever naming all the delicious food haha.



Hope you're all having a wonderful day! Hugs <3

White T-Shirt and Jeans

Hello!! The past few hours have been a bit rushed, so I am just going to get a quick outfit post out. Whenever I am at a loss of what to wear (which I just did haha), I find myself drawn to super basic combos like jeans and a white t-shirt. This combo is a staple in my wardrobe. I love the simplicity of the white t-shirt (or any white top for that matter because I own way too many haha) and the classic denim jeans. However, this combination can be boring if you go too basic. In order to spice up such a basic outfit, I go for the details. Instead of being bland on the top and bottom, I will go for rips on the jeans in order to add a little something on the bottom. Or if you're feeling adventurous, go for a boyfriend jeans to add interest! Then to balance out the bottom, I will keep it very basic on top. And then come the accessories :). I chose to layer two simple gold chain necklaces for a pretty feminine touch, added a nude purse with a gold chain strap, and a pair of nude heels. This outfit is super simple, super classic, and very appropriate for many casual events. I hope you enjoy! Hugs <3






It was a bit windy haha.
