Just Hanging Out!

Look of the Day:
Here is a great everyday type of outfit that is perfect for spring and summer. Its very casual and, best of all, has affordable pieces! You will be comfortable for the whole day! This outfit just has a very realistic feel to it. Not everyone feels like being an obvious trendsetter every day. But that doesn't mean they can't still be stylish. I love how simple these pieces are, yet they still are very feminine. And I would like to point out that this polo shirt is a great deal at $59! Its from Marc by Marc Jacobs and is for sale at Barney's. It Originally sold for $150! A great casual and designer addition to any wardrobe!

All About Plaid!

Plaid is back! But did it ever really go away? I feel like, to an extent, you can always get away with a little plaid. It seems to come and go in waves. There is a lot available right now in, what I am calling, summer plaid. Plaid dresses, shorts, Bermuda's, and shoes! Many fun colors!Personally, I don't wear much plaid. I went through a phase in high school where I owned a pair of plaid pants. But I don't talk about that! Haha! But I think I would be about a plaid dress for summer! I love the dress below from Forever 21. It seems perfect to wear to an outdoor party on a warm evening! And I do love the plaid flats! Those ould look great with a pair of jeans!

Here are some great plaid finds!
