Second-Hand Summer Outfit

How has your week been? I've had another London packed week I must admit and I'm feeling to lucky to be here experiencing this. While walking around running errands for my internship, I stumbled upon some really amazing vintage and second-hand shops in the Shoreditch area! It reminded me of this gorgeous, Gianni Bini dress I found for a steal, second-hand at my old work, Style Encore Conway, which is a gently-used women's clothing shop! ( I miss that place and my work pals so so much and finding amazing steals!) In this post I wanted to talk about the benefits of shopping second-hand, vintage, or consignment clothes for both your own wallet and the planet!

My Interview Tips

I hope you're all doing well! I've just made it to London, but I wrote this ahead of time so fingers crossed the journey went well! Eeeek! Anyway, I'm so glad you've joined me again here on the blog. You're the best, you know! This week, since I recently nailed a very dreamy internship, I wanted to talk about some tips and tricks, you know how I love my tips, on how to nail the job, internship, college program, etc. of your dreams! I've spent over a year and a half finding and getting this internship, and I've interviewed with my share of companies since I was about fifteen, so I think I've learned a suitcaseful!

Romantic Picnic Outfit

How are you all doing on this sunny Sunday, friends? I hope you're all having warm weather and a relaxing weekend as well! I just arrived at the beach so get ready for some summery beach posts in the coming weeks. For this particular post I wanted to talk about how to rock a romantic look this summer whether it's for a picnic, summer wedding, or any other occasion!

Poolside Outfit Vibes

Thank you so much for bearing with my erratic posting after my sickness. I'm feeling much better this week, other than being tired all the time haha. Anyway, today I just wanted to talk you through a summery look I've been loving recently! All the outfit details are down below for you to shop if you're interested in anything too.

It's All In the Details

How are you all doing? I have to admit I'm on a little bit of a low after coming back from our amazing trip to Ireland and England, but I'm still trying to make the most of the summer months.

For my first post back at home, I just thought I'd talk about the little details and how they can make an outfit.

Celebrating A Year of Blogging

I hope you are all getting back into the swing of school or work without mourning the holiday break too much.

So I have some exciting news that has added a little excitement to my new year! My blog has officially been up and running for a year now! Because of how proud I am of this accomplishment, I thought I would look back on some of the highlights of the past year, as a thank you everyone who has supported the blog!

2017 Fashion Resolutions

I hope you have all had a wonderful start to the new year, and I'm sorry I didn't post last weekend. We had to head back from England, and I wanted to focus on spending the last couple days with my family!

Anyway, as we have now entered 2017, I have made a few fashion New Year's revolutions that you might want to try out for yourself.

Dress to Impress

Goodmorning everyone! This week, since some people have already returned to school and I'm heading back to university this week, I thought I'd talk about the importance of making a good first impression.

Especially when it comes to going to a job or internship interview, making a good first impression is extremely important. According to MindTools, a first impression can be nearly impossible to reverse or undo.
