Mixing Your Metals

Hope you’re having a lovely beginning of a new week. Comment down below what you got up. (I always need ideas for next weekend.) This weekend I spent Friday night relaxing and Saturday was spent with my friend, Jade, taking photos and finishing the night with a delicious carbonara and garlic bread. On Sunday, we went over to my roommate, Grace’s, dad’s for a roast which was amazing. I made a chocolate tart and made pastry for the first time. It didn’t turn out too bad! This week at HPR is our press day, so it’s a busy week of prepping and merchandising the new collections. It’s always exciting seeing the new designs each season though. Anyway, on to this week’s post, I wanted to talk about breaking an old fashion rule we all know.

How to Find the Jeans of Your Dreams

Learn to Love Yourself

This Valentine's Day, I've been thinking about how important it is to love yourself. Yes, we all have our little flaws, but loving yourself first is an essential part to being a healthy and overall happy individual, in my opinion. On this day when we're so busy showing everyone else how much we love them, don't forget to show yourself a little love.

Back to Black

I hope you're all doing well on this dreary January morning. Has this not been the longest month ever? It feels like it will never end, and I don't know about you, but we've been having some not-so-lovely weather! Instead of crisp, frosty mornings, we've been having soggy grey ones.

Because of the less than cheerful weather and this never-ending month after the holiday season, I know many of you, like me, is getting a bit bored or feeling uninspired when it comes to your wardrobe. You've probably even resulted to wearing black everyday, which, while easy, can also be quite unexciting. Not to fear though, I'm challenging you to reinvent the way we all wear black.

(My friend from high school, Miranda Meyers took these amazing shots for me, and they're honestly some of my favorites to date. We had so much fun creating these photos and chatting all afternoon! I've been wanting to work with her for ages now. Head over to her blog and instagram and give her amazing work some love.)

Ireland & England Haul 2017

I've finally gotten around to filming my Ireland & England haulł Hooray! I had such an amazing trip visiting family and seeing all of the amazing sites that Ireland and England had to offer, so the amazing shopping was just the icing on top of the cake! I think I found some perfect pieces with the help of my mom, Mrs. Cindy, my Auntie Mandy, and my lovely cousin, Neave! Thanks for the help guys! <3 I'm very excited to share it with you, so I hope you enjoy it!

Galway Girl: My Quick Guide to Ireland

How is everyone today? I'm sending my well wishes your way. I hope you're having as lovely weather as I am here in the UK!

Today, I thought I should just catch you up on my recent trip to Ireland, and what I think. Below I've included all the reasons you need to get yourselves to Ireland, whether it's food, photogenic locations, or shopping.

Just a Touch of Rock & Roll

I hope you're all having a wonderful weekend. This week I just thought I would talk about adding a little rock & roll to your outfit. I have included a few defining elements of a rock & roll look below. As you all know, my style is not very rocker, but I've decided that paired with the right pieces, it's a pretty cool look. So if I can make it work, then so can you!

The Corset: From The 16th Century to The 21st

Who wouldn't want to take a trip back in time to the 16th century when extravagant gowns and bouffant hair were at their height? Although we'd all love to be lords and ladies for a day, a heavy hoop skirt and layers of heavy fabric wouldn't be the most practical for driving cars or going to the grocery store.

Since it's one of the biggest trends of the season, I've decided to take the corset into my own hands and make it my own.

How To Make a Summer Piece Winter Appropriate

I hope you are all having a lovely winter so far! It is almost Christmas and I'm so excited to be with the fam! I feel as though I'm already running out of winter outfit ideas, so I've decided I need to get a little more creative. I think incorporating some usually summer pieces is the best way to expand your winter wardrobe.

Experimenting with New Silhouettes

I hope you all had a lovely weekend and a great Thanksgiving if you live in the U.S.! I had a busy time visiting family and friends, but I loved seeing everyone! Now I am just counting down the next two weeks until the semester it over. It's been a tough one.

For this post, I just wanted to talk about some new shapes I've been experimenting with this fall.
