And the Black

  In a world that is full of color sometimes it is nice to wear simple black. Ignoring all of the flashy and bright colors that make people really stand out it is good to blend in sometimes. I mean obviously sometimes doing or wearing something understated makes you stand out. There is this blog that I follow called and the black and her style seems so effortless when she puts no color in her style. I thought I would give it a try. It really makes the world around you pop out even more!

Life Overview

Wow! What a whirlwind of a week! Sorry that I haven't been able to keep up with my blog that much but work has kept me on my toes! We had a our first orientation this week which makes it so I have to wear a lovely polo and pair of khakis everyday. Not very stylish right? But I guess I can make it work. Hopefully I can get back on track with taking pictures and such! 

Before I leave you, what is the worst job uniform you have ever had??

Hope you are all having a fabulous summer!!

Neverland or Wonderland?

Hello world! I hope you are all doing fantastic! New York is so lovely! I cannot believe how lucky I am to be living here over the summer, even if it is on Long Island. Though I will have plenty of time to do fun photoshoots around the city for now I am sticking with the beautiful campus of Hofstra! 

I know that I have said it before, but I still cannot get over how absolutely gorgeous this place is. It reminds me of either our own little Neverland or Wonderland.  I still cannot decide! As I went exploring today I found this coy pond garden thing. The last time that I saw it, it was winter and everything was dead and just sad. Today, however, it was absolutely magical. There were huge flowers and trees everywhere! It is just the place that I just want to sit and read in! 

For the day I wanted something extremely relaxed and comfortable since it is the day of rest and all. My entire outfit is from Urban Outfitters except for the shoes which are F21. For days like this I think it is a perfect outfit; something that doesn't take that much thought. When I added the bow I suddenly felt like Alice. And when I enter this little garden area I felt as if I had fallen down the rabbit hole. Or maybe I finally reached the second star to the right and went straight onto morning. Whichever it was everything around me disappeared and I was in a trance. Do you ever have moments like that?

What is your favorite fairytale book? Have you ever found a place that somewhat resembles it or makes you feel like you are there??

Model Behavior

Hey world! I know it has been quite some time since I have done a model behavior post, but no time like the present right? So for today's model I went with Jasmine Tookes. Now, I do not know that much about her since she is a new comer. 

The first thing I noticed about her style is the simplicity of it. She never is too over the top with which style she is going with. In her streetstyle she tends to keep her color palet very neutral. It goes along very well with the simplicity of everything. She is definitely someone to keep your eyes on for years to come! 

Thanks for reading, loves.

Not Dark Yet

I cannot believe that it is already June 1! This summer is already speedy by really quickly! I have been so busy with work training and it is wonderful! 

For the last few days I have been dressing very simply. nothing too drastic and outrageous. I think that for style you do not have to necessarily be over the top with what you wear. You can wear just a simple outfit consisting of just black items and look totally chic. For the day I went with an all black base and added a little color from the white cardigan. It is something that did not take too much think about. It is a very easy goto outfit if you are in a rush. 

 What is your perfect goto outfit in the summer if you are in a rush??

The Living is Easy

I'm back, lovelies! Sorry that it has been like a million years since my last post; I have been so busy with finals and rugby that I couldn't find time to take pictures and such. Rough life, huh? Anyways it it now officially summer! I am so excited! So many fantastic things are going to take place for the next three months! 

First off, I am finally done with my freshman year of college! I cannot believe this year has gone by so quickly! It seems like just yesterday I was getting ready for graduation and packing for Thailand! Now I'm getting ready to spend my entire summer in New York! It is crazy how much things have changed. I get to stay and work for my school on the Orientation Staff. It is such an amazing opportunity and I cannot wait to spend the next three months with such awesome people! 

Before I start my job though, I was lucky enough to go home for a week! I never thought I would be excited to be back in the lovely corn fields of Ohio, but alas I was quite pleased. I have one week to see all of my lovely friends and family till I the next time which is Thanksgiving! Whilst home my mom and I went shopping and I found these fantastic shorts! I'm literally in love with them! I am kind of in love with everything polka dot so these are perfect. I think that they are the perfect summer piece! You can pair them with almost everything and for almost every occasion. My best friend Allie was nice enough to take these pictures for me. Aren't they fantastic?!? I feel as if the capture everything that is home for me. 

What is your favorite summertime activity? 

Thank you all for reading!

Layers of Spring

Hi all! I hope you are all having a wonderful week full of fantastic weather! We are currently in the state where it can't decide if it wants to be hot or cold. It has come to the point where I have to put on so many layers in the morning and slowly start changing into something completely different by the end of the day. And let me tell you it is not an easy feat. 

For today I decided to go with and extremely boho look. They usually involve tons of layers so it would be easy to shed them throughout the day. I paired my leather leggings with a denim top, F21 scarf, Anthro jacket, and moccasins. It is such a casual outfit when i do not want to take the time to choose something truly cute. 

Thanks for reading all!
