PS for M&H: Blue on Blue

I have come to decide that crop tops are my favorite item for any occasion. There are so many different shapes and varieties available this season, so the opportunities to style them are endless! Right now I have a tendency to gravitate more towards zip-back crop tops, as they generally have a more structured or intricate shape than the classic pullover crop. I am loving this floral one I found at Milk & Honey the other day. I decided to pair it with my high-waist blue pants to keep a modest look with more coverage for a visit to the DMA with a friend. See how I styled this structured crop and visit the Milk & Honey website to find yours!

Giraffe Print Outfit
As I have said time and again, matching separates are my style weakness of the moment (seen here and here), so of course a new matching Missguided crop and wrap mini would be my go-to for celebrating my 25th birthday this past weekend with all of my amazing friends! I discovered Missguided earlier this year at the rewardStyle Conference and instantly fell in love with the collection. The pieces are so affordable for the quality, and I love the way that if I find a piece I love (like this dress), I can order it in other prints (like this or this)! I paired my giraffe print look with my favorite Gianmarco Lorenzi slingbacks and some bold gold accessories, like this ultra-fab fringe anklet – yes, revisiting the 90s anklets. Take a look at how I styled my set and visit their site to see more of this fun collection!

Seeing Summer

With only one day left until my final exam and one week until my SMU graduation (YAY!), my mind has already switched to summer mode. My summer style is always colorful and casual, which is why J. Crew is my favorite stop for summer staples. These white shorts are a closet must and the perfect fit for any shape! What is your summer style?

Boxy Tops

Boxy Tops

I’ve always heard you should never wear white before Easter, but that rule is just a little too old fashioned for me! There’s nothing I love more than a fresh pair of white jeans in the Spring, and since I’m not a huge fan of skinnys, these J Brand flares are perfect for me. I paired them with this new Ella Moss boxy top I snagged recently, and I am loving the contrast of feminine eyelet with rugged chambray. Be sure to keep an eye out for boxy tops this season, as the structured shape gives a polished look with minimal effort – try this, this, this, or this. I finished off the look with my new favorite necklace (also seen here), which I can’t seem to take off!

Updated Classics

Updated Classics

When I think of a navy dress and a denim jacket, the word classic comes to mind. Despite all the fads that come and go, these are two items that always remain in style. What I love most about this look is this After Pant’s Paris jacket I snagged at Gregory’s a couple years ago. The jacket maintains the same all-American look of denim, but the padded shoulders gives it an updated twist – see this similar one I found for the look for less.  I paired it with this fun and flirty seamed skirt dress for drinks in the Arts District with a girlfriend.
