outfit of the day 11/24: free people nation

I'm obviously feeling patriotic today! I'm also wearing two Free People pieces! My America tank is from free people, along with my purple floral printed cords. I'm wearing a handcrafted silver necklace my mom made and my shoes are vintage brown short lace up boots! It was a little breezy out, but not too cold to wear a sleeveless blouse! I love the lace detail on the back of this tee because it gives the whole shirt a vintage feel, combined with the faded USA! P.S.- a quick tip: if you can't find the time to search for vintage pieces, free people is great for vintage look- a - likes! :)

dresses over jeans: trendy or trashy?

Hello, hope everyone had a wonderful, fun-filled weekend! I've been very sick for the past few days, but i'm back and ready to blog now! I reckon many of you have seen Perks of being a Wallflower with Emma Watson and Logan Lerman, yes? Well, as I put together a last minute outfit this morning, I realized I was wearing a dress with jeans. Fashion no no right? Maybe not. I was appalled at myself at first, but at second glance really loved the mix of a loose floral dress and skinny wine-coloured jeans. I don't have a picture, as I've been rushing around today, but maybe I'll take one later. Anyways, my point with Emma Watson being that she rocked this trend on the Red Carpet at the premiere of "Wallflower" back in September, and it's very classy and forward, if I do say so myself! Here's her outfit, in case you haven't seen!

Pretty amazing, right? I'm really in love, and have been wanting to post it, but never had a good reason too! Anyway, if Emma thinks it's in, then I'm not going to be the one to argue! Under this are some pictures I found of casual style that has made this trend work.

November TopShop Must Have List

Alexa Chung Style

Alexa Chung has honestly been my number one style inspiration since I became interested in fashion. Her looks are so unique and new, but have a very vintage feel. She's so effortless and looks amazing whether she's on the red carpet or on the streets. Here are some of my favorite looks!
