on trend: beanies

With winter (finally!) right around the corner, it's also (finally!) acceptable to wear my favorite cold weather accessory. Despite the fact that I unjustly wear my beanies year round, it becomes even more exciting to put them on when I know they're going to look cute, and keep me warm! My favorite and most worn hat is a grey/multi-colored knit beanie from Free People, but don't let that limit your beanie-spectrum because this season the trend is becoming more and more a part of every type of style. From athletic-themed fashion, to girly/feminine style, and even edgier outfits, beanies are making a statement nearly everywhere. BCBG Max Azria sent their models down the runway in them, celebrities like Rihanna and Cara Delevigne wear them regularly. I'm not going to be one to argue with the experts. Are you? You can decide for yourself! Some pictures are below :)

fashion/editorial photography

So since I've decided to share my photography on here once, I thought I'd go ahead and do it again! I took some cool, editorial type portraits of my friends this weekend. Some of the props included walking sticks, flower crowns, and full length fur coats.. anyway here they are!

falling into a u t u m n

so i know i'm a little late on the "fall outfits" post, but I promise it just only started getting cold where I live! Of course, I wish it would get cold quicker, and stay that way longer, but hey, that's oklahoma for you. Autumn, for me, is a time where I'm happy for no reason. I could wake up in the morning and just smile because. The dreary sky brightens my day, however oxymoron-esque that sounds. It may be in part due to the fact that the cold air hitting my skin means that I get to wear my favorite type of outfit-sweaters over dresses. I'm a sucker for a cute summer dress, but my true loyalty lies with my cozy knitted friends. So when I can pair my two loves? I'm one happy girl.
