Flora

April 23, 2014






Sweater: Zara (similar). Trousers: Target (similar, similar). Necklace: ILY Couture. Purse: Coach (similar). Shoes: Old Navy

These pants are just plain fun. I wore these when I was interning in London last summer, and my coworkers asked me where they were from. I then proceeded to tell them that they were from Target, which was met with blank stares. So then I had to explain what Target is, which isn't easy. It was very difficult to get across the magnificence of Target, and I don't think I did it justice. They don't have anything like it in the UK. I don't think I could live somewhere that didn't have a Target. #addicted

Five Spring/Summer Must Haves

April 22, 2014

Now that spring is finally (pleasepleaseplease) here for good, I thought I would put together a list of my must haves for the coming season. Every girl should have these basics ready to grab for the warmer months. There's options for every budget!

1. A great wedge, that goes with everything, is essential for spring/summer months. They can easily be dressed up, or down, and they're so easy to walk in! (#holla) I would go with something in the tan/beige/brown family so that you can get maximum wear. (steal // save // splurge)

2. A cute sunhat. Let's be sun-savvy this summer ladies. These hats are all cute and practical! (steal // save // splurge)

3. A striped sundress, stripes = versatile. The perfect sundress can be worn a million different ways: with a patterned belt, with a leather/combat vest, over a swimsuit, under a blazer, etc. (steal // save // splurge

4. Every girl needs a comfortable, simple sandal that can be worn with everything. Since sandal-season comes and goes all-too-quickly in Minneapolis I don't like to buy too many pairs. I like to buy one pair that can be worn with everything from denim cutoffs to maxi dresses. Look no further for inspo: (steal // save // splurge

5. A great carry-all tote. Is it just me, or do we have more stuff to lug around during the summer? I feel like I'm always reaching for a tote to throw an extra pair of flip-flops, sunscreen, and a light jacket in. (steal // save // splurge)

What are your spring/summer essentials?

Sunday Best

Skirt: J. Crew. Shirt: J. Crew. Wedges: Steve Madden. Belt: Target. Necklace: J. Crew Factory (similar). Sunglasses: Ray Ban. Purse: Coach (similar). 

This was my Easter outfit from yesterday, thank god it was warm enough to wear it! My family keeps it pretty low-key for Easter: church and brunch. I basically love any reason to get dressed up and eat breakfast food, so it was a lovely day :) it doesn't hurt that it was absolutely beautiful in the cities yesterday. Hope you had a wonderful Easter weekend!
