H&M

Red, White and Blue Baby

June 30, 2015

necklace Swell Caroline | skirt Zara on sale! | shoes (sam edelman old) | bag (forever21 old) | top H&M (old)

There’s something to be said about the red lip classic thing that goes hand in hand with one of my favorite holidays, fourth of July.  Since budgeting for Italy, I’ve had to really focus on the classic pieces in my wardrobe that are mix and matchable and make me feel like me while still feeling like a fresh version of myself (I swear the thoughts in girls heads haha!). So what better way to start the July fourth festivities early than to invoke my inner Taylor-Swift-meets-friends-for-4th-of-july-festivities persona?

If I Was a French Girl…

June 4, 2015
olivia palermo inspired look

striped top H&M | chiffon shorts (old) similar | target flats | red clutch (vintage) love this clutch | necklace (old) kate spade similar

If I was a french girl, I would wear stripes, red lips, a beret and sit eating macaroons all day long in front of the Eiffel Tower before jumping on my bike with a straw basket on the front full of fresh blooms, a baguette and champagne. Fortunately, I at least have the perfect outfit that I would wear in this super specific day dream of mine! I know this is a super literal take on being a french girl, and they’re so much more than stripes, red lips and vespas with boys, but thats the literal french girl in me I guess.

Destroyed Denim on Repeat

May 21, 2015

denim H&M (less than $20!!) | linen tank (old) similar | sandals (old) Sam Edelman Trina , love leopard print ones too | utility jacket (old) similar | layered necklaces dogeared short & long similar

If these black destroyed denim shorts look familiar to you, its because you’ve seen their medium wash twin before in my lazy sunday look and in how I dressed up that lazy look for night lol! I seriously can’t rave about these H&M destroyed denim shorts enough. They fit really well, aren’t too tight or too loose and at less $20 are an obvious choice for dark destroyed denim shorts of the year, am I right?

Bringing 50s back

May 19, 2015

top H&M | skirt re:named | sandals (target sold out) similar | clutch (mom’s closet) similar

Growing up I can remember riding around in my dad’s weekend car with the top down and singing motown, do-wop and the blues with my dad. It was some of the most fun times I had while growing up and made me really fond of that era. Which leads me to the inspiration behind this look and this skirt! I’ve been tying up my button ups alot lately with skirts and high-waisted denim because its so playful and fun.

Last week I shared with you my new favorite high-waisted denim shorts from H&M and how I styled them for a casual day of grass laying, fruit-infused water sipping and book reading. But these denim shorties aren’t just a one trick casual pony. No way! So today I’m sharing how I styled these H&M shorties for a sassy girls night out to an old favorite Mexican food joint, el Alma.

Lazy Days Are The Best Days

May 11, 2015

shirt (Zara old) similar | cut-offs H&M | sandals (Tory Burch old) similar & splurge | hat (old) love this one | bag (old) similar

This is one of my favorite times of the year in Austin, because its just past that cold enough for an extra layering piece but not so warm that I can only stand to be outside mid-day if I’m either by water or in water. During this small window of weather perfection, I love to take advantage of laying around in the park next to my house and reading books, doing some yoga poses and planning upcoming trips.

Earth Day Every Day

Staying positive! #livewell #bloglovefest @seekwandershare

In honor of Earth Day, I wanted to share some of my favorite eco-friendly brands that are changing the world. I’m such a fan of companies that are committed to making this earth a better place for future generations. I sound like such a hippie but it’s so important that we take care of the resources on this plant and consume in a responsible manner. From sunglasses to concrete planters, you’re going to become huge fans of these socially responsible businesses.

Let’s get started truth or dare

March 13, 2015

Next week, the music portion of SXSW is starting and Melissa and I can’t wait to take over FashionxAustin’s blog and Instagram as their exclusive SXSW Fashion and Music Insiders! While doing some research and I mean really just listening to the 8tracks app while working, I stumbled across an amazing song: Coconut Water by Milk and Bone . And as luck would have it, they will be gracing Austin, Tx. this week with their presence at SXSW! Long story short, this look was inspired by the feeling that their song Coconut Water and Pressure gave me whilst listening to them.

What to Wear for SXSW

March 11, 2015

SXSW is right around the corner is a huge event in Austin. Growing up in Austin, I never really got into SXSW considering I was a big scaredy cat and thought all bad things in the city happened downtown, which turns out Austin is a pretty safe city and I’ve been enjoying downtown life for the past year and it suits me just fine. This year, along with Melissa, I’ve purchased a wrist band, which I’m not quite sure what it guarantees me, but am so excited to roam the city and check out a few bands I’ve discovered throw 8tracks and soundcloud.

Whatever with a Twist

March 5, 2015

Despite it being freezing cold lately, no exaggeration here although I wish, I’m not letting the glum weather get my spirits down. Which is exactly why I pulled out this super cute graphic pom hat when it went below 35 the other day. I have always loved hats and think that they can be the perfect accessory to an outfit that is seemingly missing something but you can’t quite figure out what.

Feeling Tribal…

February 6, 2015

Last weekend was I met up with my girlfriends for queso, tacos and drinks after a working all day (fun work that is) on the blog. Being from the south and growing up in Texas, tex-mex is just a way of life; in fact my dad loves it so much that I think if we could eat it every time we meet to somewhere to eat, we would lol! If only it wasn’t for my pestering him to try new places, we probably really would! Anyways, we met at La Condesa which is one of my all time favorite places for girl talk and the BEST drinks this side of the Mississippi. I didn’t have time to run home and grab flats so I wore what I had previously been wearing which was a super cute outfit built around a statement skirt!

Layered in Lace

January 30, 2015

Last weekend I met up with Melissa on Saturday morning to brunch, talk blog and shop (by shop I mean literally talk shopping lol). When I was getting ready that morning I had my heart set on wearing a cute little draw string dress from Forever 21 that is incredibly comfortable, so I threw it on, grabbed my sunnies and DVF wedges ( similar nude wedges ) and headed out the door. As soon as I stepped out side, I felt the chill. Ladies you know what I’m talking about, you have this idea of what to wear in your mind and totally don’t even bother checking the weather so when you get outside you realize holy goodness, its freezing, what was I thinking.

C’est Tout Bon

January 24, 2015

This look is an absolute favorite of mine because it makes me feel so beautiful and girly! Not only that, but its super easy to pull off and flattering on every figure; after receiving so many likes for this outfit and variations of it time after time on my personal instagram, I decided give the people what they want!

Warm & Fuzzy

January 22, 2015

It’s been extremely cold and rainy here in Austin lately (and by extremely I mean it could just be me lol). I’ve been craving spring already but in the mean time have been obsessed with wearing the softest sweaters because if it has to be cold you might as well feel like your wearing the softest sweater blanket ever.

All White Everything

January 7, 2015

I am so ready for spring it isn’t even funny! Winter was great, and even though its still cold here in Austin, I’m hoping that if I embrace by inner feeling of spring that it’ll come early this year… think I’ve got a shot? Well I’m wearing all white anyways.
