Inspiration: Morocco

As I think about life at university, I think about study abroad options and where I might like to visit during and after that time. One of those places is Morocco. My parents had me watch Casablanca when I was a freshman in high school, and that sparked my interest in the city and the country. The architecture and culture I later spent hours researching sealed the deal. Here are some of my favorite pictures of the amazing country and its architecture.

Style: Flare Overalls?

I have seen tons of celebrities wearing flare overalls lately, especially this lovely Frame Denim pair in a darker wash. I was skeptical about them at first, but I've discovered with the right accessories, they can be a perfect statement piece in any closet. Here are some sets in which I've styled various pairs of flare overalls.

Style: Black Out

"I'll stop wearing black when they invent a darker color," is how the saying goes. And for me, this quote applies more than I can say. Black is my favorite color to wear. I wear it year round, buying black summer dresses, black jackets, black booties, black jeans consistently. I go shopping and wish they made certain pieces in black so I could convince myself to buy them. I don't know what it is about black (maybe because it matches my soul... just kidding... not really), but over 50% of my closet is black. Here are some all black outfits that have been inspiring my outfits this year. (I know one has a non-black blouse, but let's just pretend it's black)

Inspiration: WeWoreWhat (Part 4)

In case you don't know, I am moving to New York City! I am so beyond excited, this is a dream come true. But what you probably know is that I'm obsessed with Danielle Bernstein's (of WeWoreWhat) style, and she posts a lot of NYC shots on her Instagram that make me want move in day to come a lot quicker.

Style: Bandana Scarves / 70s Fashion

Bandana scarves have been popping up everywhere recently! I think they are so versatile and can be worn with a variety of different outfit styles, from urban grunge to seventies summer. The seventies styles have been back in fashion lately: flare jeans, fringe, bandana scarves, peasant blouses, denim on denim. Combining all of these styles into one outfit can be overwhelming and costume-y; however, if you take one or two individual pieces and work them into your everyday style, it can work very well. Here is how I incorporated the bandana scarf, along with some other seventies fashion pieces, into my style.
