Polka

May 12, 2015






Shorts: J. Crew (similar). Top: Banana Republic. Purse: Coach (similar). Sandals: Loft. Hat: Parc Boutique (similar). Sunglasses: RayBan's. 

Hello, happy Wednesday! I'm all mixed up on my days since I just got back from a long weekend in Orlando. I'll be sharing a photo diary tomorrow, so be sure to check back for more pictures and details! This is an outfit I wore on Sunday to the Kennedy Space Center (my favorite part of the trip). These pictures were taken at the very beginning of the day though, so before I sweat my face off and the curl right out of my hair! 

Hope your week is going well!

By Accident

May 4, 2015







Sweater: Zara (similar). Romper worn as shorts: Loft (similar). Sandals: Loft. Purse: Phillip Lim for Target (similar). Hat: Parc Boutique (similar). Sunglasses: J. Crew Factory (similar). 

This outfit came together kind of by accident, don't you love when that happens? I threw this together yesterday for a day of running errands and ended up really liking it! It was actually hot over the weekend so I got to pull out shorts and dresses and rompers! Like I said on Friday one of my best friends was in town so we had a weekend packed with all sorts of fun like going to a piano bar, having a derby party, and then my going away party. Now this is my last week of college, which is actually insanity. Then on Friday I'm headed to Orlando for the weekend. All sorts of fun things happening!

*Keeping it real: so I do love this hat, but the real reason I'm wearing it is because my hair hadn't been washed in a few days...whoops. Gotta love hats and sunglasses, amiright? Also, when I was taking pictures with my sister she said we should do some of me walking, so here's one of those for your viewing pleasure. #sassy



Fabulous Finds

May 1, 2015

1. I've been wanting a white blazer for a while, but I have a love-hate relationship with them. However, this little ASOS number is calling my name. 
2. My (very cheap) phone case is starting to fall apart, so this pretty little lady is on her way to my house!
3. Love love love this J. Crew Factory romper.
4. I'm thinking this short sleeved sweater from J. Crew is perfect for CA weather (I've been using that to justify several purchases since I decided to move)!
5. A simple, but chic chambray dress from Loft. 
6. How fun are these sunglasses from Nordstrom?
7. This yellow jacket from J. Crew Factory just screams spring, no?

Phew, what a week. All of my projects/papers/presentations are due next week (#senioryear), so I'm a bit frazzled. This weekend is going to be so good though. One of my best friends is coming to stay for the weekend and we have all sorts of fun things planned, including my going away party!

Hope you have a good weekend!

Rocksbox Review

April 29, 2015


Today's post is a long one, but it's so good, so bear with me! I'm excited to tell you about Rocksbox, which is a monthly jewelry borrowing service! When Rocksbox reached out to me and offered to let me try it out I agreed immediately, because hellooo jewelry! It's such a fun idea. You take a survey about your style and then they send you three pieces to try out. You can wear them for as long as you'd like, and then return them to get three new pieces! If you really love something, you can purchase it, or send it back to try something new. So today, I styled the three pieces I was sent in my first Rocksbox. It was actually quite thrilling to see what they would send me. It's the little things, ya know?







Dress: BB Dakota (similar). Belt: Forever 21. Shoes: Kohl's. Clutch: Coach (similar). Sunglasses: Rayban's. Earrings: Perry Street Aria Earrings borrowed via Rocksbox. 





Dress: Nordstrom (similar). Clutch: Gap (similar). Heels: JCPenny's (similar). Necklace: borrowed via Rocksbox. Sunglasses: Rayban's.







Top: J. Crew Factory. Skirt: J. Crew Factory. Clutch: Anthroplogie. Necklace: J. Crew (similar). Earrings: Gorjana Mave Shimmer Drop Studs borrowed via Rocksbox. Heels: JCPenny's (similar). 

Overall, I had a really great experience with Rocksbox. While I may not necessarily have chosen all of the pieces, it was fun to try something new! I can't wait for my next box to come :) also, you can use the code "myinnerfabulousxoxo" to get your first month free!

*Keeping it real: My roommate and I took all three of these outfit pictures in an hour. This is your cue to be impressed :) also, I wasn't able to link everything from my outfits because a lot of the pieces are old and I couldn't find anything similar.


Patterned

April 15, 2015










Skirt: J. Crew (on major sale!). Top: Loft (similar). Flats: Old Navy (similar). Belt: Target. Sunglasses: RayBan's. 

Sorry for the radio silence last week! Remember that project/presentation I've been talking about for the past few months? Well that's where all of my time and energy has been spent lately, so the blog took a back seat. But, now it's over and I have my life back! Anyways, this outfit isn't anything revolutionary, just a few of my favorite pieces paired together for a fun, feminine look!

Hope your week is going well!

*Keeping it real: I'm pretty sure I wore an outfit almost exactly like this a year or two ago on the blog, but in all honesty I was too lazy to go back and look. It's a favorite combination of mine, so you'll probably something similar again!






Blushing

March 25, 2015








Skirt: J. Crew. Sweater: Forever 21 (similar). Shoes: Old Navy (similar). Purse: Forever 21 (similar). 

If you can't tell, I'm really loving monochromatic looks right now (as evidenced by two monochromatic posts in a week). I just think they're really chic. I also can't enough of this light pink color. I just got my tax refund (holla) and am considering pulling the trigger on a beautiful blush Tory Burch purse. Treat yo self, amiright? I'm thinking that this look would be perfect for Easter brunch in a few weeks, especially if it doesn't warm up.

Hope your week is going well! Also, I just created a public snapchat account. You should follow along @myinnerfabulous!

*Keeping it real: I wasn't 100% sure about this skirt. I liked it, but I didn't know if I loved it. You know how that goes. It sat on my desk for a few weeks after I bought it, and then I decided to try it out for this post and then I was sold!
