Sweater: Frenchi via Nordstroms – find HERE Jeans: Bullhead Black via PacSun Scarf: Old Navy (Find a similar version HERE) Boots: Guess Ring: Giza Ring via Jewelmint – get it HERE This weekend I made the 3.5 hour trek to visit my boyfriend at college. As I recently graduated from the same college, it was nice being back to my old stomping grounds. I had a great time with the boy, but it was definitely hard to leave Sunday afternoon. Long distance relationships are hard and while Skype, phone calls and texts help to make things easier,…
Top: Forever 21 Skirt: Tobi ‘Vegan Leather Skater Skirt’ – sold out but look for restock HERE Shoes: Madden Girl – from last winter Bracelets: Stretchy spike bracelet – ebay and Houdini Bracelet – via Jewelmint Yeah…I know… It’s what I do. A trend I’m pretty much obsessed with this fall? LEATHER (fake ‘vegan’ leather is okay with me too). Too bad the only piece to grace my closet this season as of yet is this ‘vegan skater skirt’ from Tobi.com (one of my new favorite online shops). I love that this skirt is leather, but totally ladylike! Expect…
There comes a time when pieces of clothing in our closet aren’t getting as much love as they need and deserve a new home. With this in mind, I decided to open my own Shop My Closet for Twenties Girl Style! All pieces featured below can be found at Shop Twenties Girl Style. They are all pre-owned (by me…obviously!), and in pretty good condition, unless noted otherwise! I’m starting small, with just four pieces, but expect new additions to the store in the coming months! Metallic Brocade Dress Size: Small Originally from: Forever 21 A…

I’m really enjoying it…especially the days when the smoke seems to clear and we have a bout of blue skies. Oh how I will never again take blue sky or fresh air for granted! I recently received this top from Rire Boutique (if you haven’t checked them out,…
Top: Sister’s Closet 🙂 (American Eagle) Pants: American Eagle Jean Jacket: Abercrombie and Fitch (OLD) Shoes: Sperry Top-Sider ‘Bluefish 2-Eye’ Boat Shoe – find HERE Bracelets: Target Pardon my lack of posts lately…I have been one busy girl! The weather here has been spectacular. Despite the smokey haze that still covers the city, the temperatures have been in the 80’s. I swear it has never been this warm in late September/ early October before! While I’m craving fall clothes, I’ve really been enjoying wearing my summer/spring stuff for a little bit longer this year. Yesterday, I…
Skirt: Forever21 T-shirt: Victoria’s Secret PINK – find HERE Jacket: Forever21 Wedges: Target Necklace: Forever21 – find HERE Rings: Gifted Nails: Essie ‘Skirting the Issue’ I’ve got a major crush on the color oxblood, but who doesn’t?! This deep, rich color is so perfect for fall! I was excited that I could shop my own closet for this trend, pulling out my favorite sheer hi-lo skirt (also worn HERE this summer), that is just a hue more vibrant than the traditional oxblood seen on the runway. I was feeling very matchy matchy, as I painted my nails a similar…

We are no longer threatened by the fire, but the smoke is ridiculous. Looking out my window now, it looks like a thick fog has settled, and I can barely make out the hill behind my house. It has been like this for a week now, and it’s getting old. I’ve remained indoors as much as possible as they are calling the air quality hazardous. This…

Necklace: Forever21 Bracelet: Wild Thorn Bracelet via Jewelmint Bag: Melie Bianco via Little Black Bag Sunglasses: Target Nail Polish: Essie ‘Absolutely Shore’ This week has been quite the experience. On Saturday, my hometown experienced a major lightening storm. By Sunday morning, because the area is so dry, dozens of fires had started. Monday morning, I awoke to the police pounding at my door telling us we were at a Level 1 evacuation and to be prepared. I have been on evacuation…

My sister had a few photo shoots this summer (I will have to share some pictures with you sometime…they turned out amazing!) at my grandparent’s orchard, leading us to the discovery of this fantastic old shed. Needless to say, this place has become our favorite place for photo shoots. Located in…
Dress: Nasty Gal – identical version HERE Shoes: Target Necklace: Gentry – get it HERE Labor day weekend is always the unofficial end of summer for me. I spent my time hanging by the lake with my family, reading good books and relaxing in the sun. I was torn between enjoying my long weekend and already missing summer, but overall the weekend was a success. I definitely feel more relaxed and ready for fall (pumpkin spice lattes, boots, and pretty fall colors outside…yes, please) and have accepted that summer is coming to a close. Accepting summer being over…
Happy September 1st! While I am so sad summer is over, I cannot wait to start dressing for fall. Jeans, boots, jackets and my all time favorite, a cozy cowl. Thats why I’m so excited to share this news with you today! I met Sarah freshman year of college and we quickly became super close friends. Due to Sarah’s job working with the elderly, she learned to crochet and started making cowls. I fell in love with them and had her make me a quite a few in a variety of colors. These cowls are…
V-neck T: Victoria’s Secret PINK – find HERE Pants: American Eagle – similar HERE Shoes: Sperry Bahama’s – find HERE or HERE Necklace: Nordstroms It seems like I’m always on the hunt for the perfect v-neck. I’ve had so many grey v-neck’s over the past few years it’s not even funny. It doesn’t seem like I ever discover the imperfections of one until the 3rd wash, either. Situation: I purchase the PERFECT fitting v-neck. Take it home, wear it once, all is well. Until…DUN DUN DUN..I wash it. After the first wash, I notice the neck is stretched out weirdly…
Top: Forever21 Pants: Target (sister’s 🙂 ) Shoes: DV by Dolce Vita ‘Onya’ Platforms Bracelets: Target, gifted, ‘Cinema Americano’ via Jewelmint Ring: Old Navy This peachy/coral color has been my all time favorite this summer (you can see me rocking it HERE, HERE, HERE and even HERE). You can bet I will definitely be trying to bring it into my fall wardrobe as much as possible. I adored these peach skinnies, borrowed from my little sisters closet, paired with this whimsy, layered polka dot top from forever 21. Of course I would add my favorite shoes (I won’t even give you…
Skirt: Hollister Dress from 4 years ago T-shirt: Old Navy – find HERE Belt: Old Navy Shoes: Target – find HERE Bracelet: ‘Cinema Americano’ via Jewelmint A trend I’ve been obsessing over this summer? Tropical prints. I’m a little late at jumping on this bandwagon as the blogosphere has been blowing up with Tropical goodness all season, but better late than never! I’ve been getting better at shopping in my own closet and have been bringing out so many oldies but goodies. This tropical print Hollister dress was my favorite 4 years ago, as I adored the…
T-shirt: American Eagle – similar HERE and HERE Peplum Skirt: Forever21 Necklace: Gift from boyfriend Ring: Forever21 Wedges: Target I was instantly drawn to pairing this t-shirt with the peplum skirt as there is something about this color combination that I adore. It might sound cheesy, but it totally reminds me of a gorgeous summer sunset when the sky turns that unexpected orangey-pink tone you didn’t think possible in nature. I paired it with a more subtle necklace and nude wedges to avoid distracting from the bold colors but added a bright cocktail ring for a finishing touch.…

Maxi Dress: Target – find HERE Shoes: Report Bracelets: Orange and Blue Man Repeller x Bauble Bar – find HERE and the rest gifted My Nana (Grandma) is selling her house. It’s sort of a bittersweet feeling, as I grew up at this house, spending far more of my childhood there than my own home. I’ve been trying to spend as much time as possible there before she moves out in mid September and re-visiting childhood memories has made me ridiculously nostalgic. Growing up, the house was always surrounded with a beautiful, almost untamed garden. As a child, going…

True. I have it in two colors. Also true. I wear it almost every day. False…more like two times a week (embarrassing!). When I found this Forever21 skirt online, I went a little bananas, purchasing 4…two for me, one for my sister, and one for my BFF. Whats better than a $13, sheer, hi-lo with the perfect fit?! I have paired this skirt with multiple shirts,…

Later in the evening, I knotted a chambray shirt over the top, turning the romper into an adorable pair of loose, flowy shorts for the…
