Adventurous Annis

2:39 PM

When i think of a great friend, I think of someone who is a caring, attentive and honest even when it's hard. If I had to choose someone who excels in all three of those areas, it would be Annis. She speaks with confidence and intelligence, she loves the Lord and as a fashion blogger I have to add that her style is "on point."

You can find her dress here and her bag here!

coffee

Lovely Lavender

8:20 PM

It's no secret that coffee is the staple of life. Think about it, what did people do before they realized that completely organic, homegrown urban coffee shops were the place to go? It's sad, really.
If you're looking for a prime spot to munch, sip coffee and catch up with your friends, look no further than The Bad Waitress. (Don't worry, the name threw me off at first as well) Located in Uptown Minneapolis, it has quickly become my favorite hangout spot. It's got coffee, good music, coffee, yummy food and did I mention COFFEE?!?!
For this look, I paired my new LOFT top and scarf together with these Old Navy Pixie Ankle Pants. I love the color of the top, lavender is a trending color for spring! I also included these Forever 21 midi rings to spice it up.

Isn't Al cute :)

Elegance and Elbow Patches

2:21 PM

Is it just me or does 20 degrees feel like -100 degrees? Maybe it’s because of the Mexico trip, but this winter feels extremely long and unusually cold! The awesome thing about doing a shoot inside is that the outside world can’t control what you wear. For this shoot, I focused on a simple timeless outfit. I wanted to incorporate these gray shoes I got at target ($3 clearance!) and this dusty blush colored cardigan (a trending color for spring!)

heck yes it has elbow patches!

Outfit details:

Sweater - H & M

Skirt - Forever 21

Tights - Kohl's

Shoes - Target

Mexico Part 1: Fashion

5:57 PM

A month ago our family took a trip to Cancun, Mexico. It was my first time out of the country, and it did not disappoint! I promise that I will put the family pictures up (Keep a look out for Mexico Part 2!), but for now I want to talk about the fashion side of the story. Every other day, the resort (Shout out to Royal Solaris), would have a fashion show displaying their swimsuit/cover up options. Being the freak I am, I was a little too excited and had to capture the outfits.
