When it comes to celebrity style, Selena Gomez has been one of my favorites for a while. She has transformed her style from an innocent tween on Disney Channel to a grown women dominating the world of fashion. One of the things I admire most about Selena's style is the way she always has an element of class in her outfits.
Recently, Selena was photographed in London for Fashion Week, and her outfits were definitely on point! I chose four of my favorite outfits she was photographed wearing, and put together a less expensive version.

New York Fashion Week

NYFW for Spring 2016 wrapped up last week and it's on to London Fashion Week! I was really hoping to blog throughout the week, unfortunately I had a lot of school work and wasn't able to. That's the one thing I don't like about school, the homework takes up ALL OF MY TIME.
There are so many things I want to mention in the post, so it's hard to narrow it down. I don't want to make this extremely long. I'll most likely have multiple posts about some of my favorite shows and trends throughout the week. Hey, it's better a week late then never, right?

The first thing I was really excited about was the debut of Lauren Conrad's LC line at NYFW. If you didn't already know, Lauren Conrad's LC line is a clothing line carried at Kohl's. I've always liked her line and I love Lauren Conrad's style! Her line debuted on the first day of fashion week and it was everything I hoped for!

The line was a romantic dream. I love the femininity of her line. It included a lot of white, pastel colors, light weight fabrics and floral prints. The pieces by themselves were simple, but when styled they were beautiful and complimented each other extremely well. The main word I would use to describe Conrad's line is elegant. The delicate fabrics and lace were very fairytale-esque.  I love how Conrad incorporated a sense of modesty in her line, yet it is still very stylish!
Now, I couldn't talk about how much I love Lauren Conrad's line without showing you some of my favorite looks. Below are a few of my favorite looks from the collection!

My VMA Red Carpet Recap

On the night of an award show you can usually find me scouring Twitter, checking out the red carpet looks. I love seeing what all of the celebrities wear and who is best and worst dressed. 

Last night was the 2015 Video Music Awards! Like I'm sure many of you did too, I tuned in to MTV at 8pm to watch all the stars walk the carpet. Most importantly, I could not wait to see Taylor Swift's Wildest Dreams music video, which I loved! 

From some of the craziest to most elegant looks, I'm here to show you my favorite and least favorite looks of the night! 

Favorites:

Vanessa Hudgens showed up in a lovely Naeem Khan dress. This dress screamed her name, one hundred percent! Vanessa is known for her signature bohemian style  so it was no surprise to see Vanessa in this ensemble. The floral design on the dress accompanied with longer necklaces and bangles added the bohemian feel. Vanessa completed her look with signature loose waves in a half updo. The only thing I wish was different is the shade of the dress. It seems a little too close to her skin tone. Overall, I really like this look and it definitely fits her style! 

Demi Lovato is nothing less than confident in this stunning skin-tight dress. Demi looked AMAZING in this geometric print, light pink and nude dress. 

I love the simplicity of her look. I'm glad she wore minimal jewelry so the focus stayed on her dress. Another thing I love about her dress is the proportion. The long sleeves mixed with the mini skirt adds a touch of elegance to her look. She looks sexy, but isn't showing too much skin. 

Since Demi is on the shorter side, the plunging neckline was a good choice for her. It elongates her face and torso, which helps her look taller.

I'm really loving this look. It all looks SO good on her, including her makeup! 

Greer Grammer wow'd everybody in this berry colored dress. I think it's the perfect color for transitioning from summer to fall.  I noticed that I tend to like the more simplistic red carpet looks. I think it's because a simplistic look shows the celebrities beauty in a more elegant way. 

Greer's dress features a plunging neckline with a long handkerchief skirt. The neckline and slit on the side shows just the right amount of skin without being too scandalous. Since the neckline is so low, I wish she wore a longer silver necklace instead of a collar one. 

This dress looks great on her and the silver accessories look superb with it!

Least Favorites: 

I know Kim Kardashian is pregnant, but I think she could have done way better than this. The dress isn't a flattering color, the lace up neckline is a little bazaar and the pockets on the hips don't make much sense.

If Kim opted for an A-line or baby doll dress, it would have suited her much better. Let's hope she looks better on the next red carpet. 

Ciara arrived at the VMA's in a very confusing look. I'm not quite sure what is going on here. Is it a dress? Are there shorts under there? The fringe seems a little extreme for me, I'm not really liking this look. I think it would've looked better if less skin was showing on top and middle and then cinch the waist in. This way the fringe would mostly be part of the skirt instead of draping across the entire body. 

The host of it all....Miley Cyrus. Miley is known for her crazy, out of this world wardrobe choices. It was no surprise Miley walked down the red carpet in a close to nothing outfit. We can only hope Miley shows less skin on her next red carpet appearance, but nobody can really know what to expect from her.

An Outfit of the Day

Two days ago I moved into my apartment at school, things have been a little crazy. I finally got situated and thought it'd be a perfect time to post!

I wore this outfit a few days ago and it's one of my go-to's in the summer. I love this dress because I feel like I don't need to accessorize it much. It's patterned and detailed, I wouldn't want accessories to take away from that. My absolute favorite part is the back! The bows down the back make it unique. I haven't seen many dresses like this before. 

My hat I'm wearing is from Target. When I saw a lot of hats this style on Pinterest, I loved how versatile they were! It's perfect for any season. I can put it on and it instantly upgrades my outfit! I've see hats this style at American Eagle, The Limited, Forever 21 and Target. 

Dress- Printemps in Paris

Hat- Target

Shoes- Kmart 

Bag- Longchamp 

3 Fall Trends to Start Your School Year in Style

As soon as the calendar turns to August 1st it feels like there is a little robot in everyone's brain that turns on the switch for back-to-school mode. Working in retail makes this hard to avoid, but I can't help but notice the earlier and earlier arrival dates for back-to-school supplies, clothes, everything! It's crazy that I'm already going back to school in two weeks, I'm excited, but it also feels like summer went by faster than I could blink.

Even though I'm not looking forward to starting schoolwork again (EWW), one thing that always gets me excited about the new school year is the fall fashion! I absolutely love seeing what new styles are in stores, what is popular, what the "in" colors are. Plus, who doesn't want to treat themselves to a new outfit before heading back to school?  I can't forget to mention with fall comes scarves, layering and did I mention scarves?! Here are three fall trends to ensure you start your school year in style! 

1. Booties

Don't say goodbye to your lovely riding boots yet, just make a little extra room for a new pair of booties! I love how this style of shoe is so versatile. They look great with a casual outfit, yet you can dress them up for a night out. I'd say booties are the most popular style of shoe for the fall!

2. Denim Skirt / Jeans 

To be honest with you, I'm still a little iffy with the denim skirt trend. I've seen so many people in magazines and on Instagram wearing these types of skirts. I think they look cute on, but I'm not quite sure if I can pull this trend off. Part of me is like "hey this is cute, wear it" and another part of me is like "oh no this is middle school all over again, don't wear it". I might try some of these on and see how they look, but if you have one, go wear it with confidence because you have the guts to pull it off! 

(starting clockwise) H&M, Forever 21, Macy's (American Rag), Top Shop

As we saw in spring and currently in summer, the 70's has had a major influence in fashion. The 70's trends are being carried over into fall fashion, it definitely isn't leaving anytime soon! Flared jeans which were huge in the 1970's are reemerging, looking hotter than ever! Flared jeans aren't particularly my cup of tea, but if you're into them, they're definitely a staple for your fall wardrobe! 

(starting clockwise) Express, American Eagle, Charlotte Russe, JCPenney 

Girlfriend jeans are another new fall trend that are becoming quite popular. This style is more relaxed than your traditional skinny jean, yet it isn't as baggy as the boyfriend jean. These are great for an effortless, yet put together look! To complete your effortless look, be sure to pair them with flats, a stylish sneaker or a pair of heels! 

(starting clockwise) Express, H&M, Express, American Eagle 

3. Printed Leggings

This is a trend I'm really liking for the fall! Adding a print to a classic pair of black leggings is a unique twist to revamp your outfit! Try pairing a pair of printed leggings with a solid color tunic or a duster sweater to complete your look!

Disney Princess Inspired Outfits

Hey everyone! This post was really fun for me to do! If you didn't know this about me yet, I absolutely love Disney and I wish I could teleport to Disney World whenever I wanted. I got the idea for this post from an article I saw on Seventeen.com called, "If Disney Princesses Went to College", read it here. I thought it would be fun to create my own outfits inspired by them. Using the website Polyvore, I created four outfits inspired by a few of my favorite princesses, Cinderella, Ariel, Belle and Snow White!

OOTD Featuring: The Stone Flower

Hey guys! I'm super excited to share the outfit I wore today!

Dress + Headband- The Stone Flower

Necklace + Earrings- Forever 21

FlipFlops- Old Navy

When I was in Boston last week I found this store in Quincy Market called The Stone Flower. The sparkly jewelry caught my eye, so I thought I'd take a peak. As I got closer I noticed the store had a lot of pink in it and two floral outfits displayed out front. This was it, I knew I had to go in!  

When I walked in I was greeted with rows and rows of headbands ranging from sparkly ones to floral ones and even some with bows on them. If you know me, you know that headbands are sort of a staple accessory for me, I'm always wearing them! On the sides of the store there were many displays filled with all types of jewelry. There were gorgeous earrings, simple and statement necklaces and beautiful barrettes. It was all so eye catching! I didn't think it could get much better than this until I walked upstairs and saw the walls of the store lined with hundreds of floral dresses, there was one in every color! I knew I had to buy one, so the hunt for the perfect dress began! It was hard to narrow it down, but I ended up trying on three dresses and bought the one I'm wearing above! I'm slightly convinced this store was made for me and to top all off, Taylor Swift started playing when I went into the dressing room! 

The one odd thing about The Stone Flower is the sizing. It's odd because there isn't any! All of the dresses are marked free size. Even though this isn't what you'd expect, I think it's really interesting that they size this way because it shows that their dresses are meant for every body type! I didn't have any big issues with the sizing. I think this works because all off the dresses have adjustable straps and stretchy backs. The really neat thing about The Stone Flower is the fact that all of the items are hand made. I think this is so neat and it adds a unique touch to your item!  

It looks like I have found my new favorite store! Check out their website www.thestoneflower.com for more info and locations!
