Simplicity

watch: Nixon. necklace: Monograms by Francesca (to order email: [email protected]). bracelets: Forever 21, David Yurman, DIY. scarf: Forever 21. shoes: Converse. hat: Forever 21.

Truth be told, I’m a simple kind of gal. When I’m not in heels, I’m in sneakers. I usually wear the same set of jewelry: monogram necklace, my nixon watch, and a few bracelets. This is why I love the fall season so much. It’s a season all about simplicity in it’s core but topped off with experimental risks and fun. My core pieces for the fall are always a good pair of boots, my converse, a scarf and hat. Throw it together with a pair of jean cutoffs, a dress, or even add them to lady like outfits like a bouclé jacket and short set. Agh, I love it.

the canvas backpack.

canvas backpack

I love canvas backpacks. I’ve always owned one and I never ever want to let them go. They’re easy to wash and light weight. Perfect for traveling or as a beach bag for the Summer. And now, they’re back in style and all the rage. I couldn’t keep these gems as a secret any longer — so here’s few that I’ve got my eye on that are easy on the budget.

1. ASOS Two Tone – On sale for $27.27
2. Herschel Supply – $64 at Karmaloop
3. Forever 21 – $32.90
4. BDG Neon Contrast – $49
5. ASOS All Black – On sale for $45.45
6. Target – $29.99

It’s Monday.

it’s monday. it’s the last month of school. it’s time to dress in comfortable library attire without lookin’ like a fool.

Now that my final semester of college is coming to a quick end, the projects and studying for final exams are getting the best of my brain this month. I didn’t have enough time this AM to shoot today’s outfit, but here’s a mock up. I’m loving side split maxi skirts a lot lately. You’ve seen me wear them here and here. They’re fun, they’re casual, and a little spicey! I paired mine with a Forever 21 white tee, turquoise necklace, Michael Kors bag, and my Shoe Privee heels.

That being said… let’s get the week started with a Splurge VS Steal action.

Splurge: Michael Kors. Steal: Forever 21.

I spotted this steal over the weekend while I was browsing shopping at Forever 21. Once I picked it up, all I could see was the Michael Kors Jet Set Tote. Minus the fact that it comes with silver detailing instead of gold. But who cares! It’s a $30 bag compared to $200. With that kind of steal, you got yourself a new purse and some extra spending money for what you’ll get this MK bag for. Now that’s a good dosage of happiness to cure the Monday blues. Don’t you say?
