Kaylie's Lookbook ~ First day of School

Hey everyone!

Today I wanted to share with you guys some cute back to school outfit ideas that you could get inspiration from.  It's always fun to dress for success on the first day because it gives everyone their first impression of the new you!  When dressing for school it's important to stay with the trends, yet still look semi-casual and not to over done.

Outfit #1



This first look is one of my favorites.  It is for the girl that goes to school in a hot climate, but her school can get a little cold.  It is really simple but girly look.  The bright colors on the scarf make it so on trend.  To make this outfit I got this dark blue short-sleeve top from Forever 21 that I actually got on sale for about half off.  I chose my Abercrombie dark washed denim shorts to go under. I love how they're short-shorts because it really adds some contrast to the heavy scarf.  However, if your school has a dress code, some high-waisted shorts would look cute too.  Then I added the star-piece to the outfit, the scarf.  I got it for $9.80 at Forever 21 and I absolutely love it!  It's this sheer texture that won't make you too hot and the vibrant colors really attract attention.

StyleSunday- Bustier Tops

Hello my lovelies! Welcome back to another issue of Style Sunday! With the hottest month right around the corner, it's the perfect time to put together some airy summer outfits!

They're stylish and flattering, and definitely wearable!

Let's get started!

Look for Less ~ Wildfox Heart Jumper

Hey girls!



I hope everyone is having a great weekend!  Today I have an exciting find to share with you guys.  For a while now I've been eyeing the Wildfox heart jumper that a lot of celebrities have been sporting like  Taylor Swift, Miranda Cosgrove, and Jennifer Lopez!  It's this super cute baggy sweater with an adorable heart in the middle!  While it looks super cute and comfty, I just can't shell out the $100 to spend on one sweater.  However, when I was browsing Forever 21 as usual, I came across a really similar one that is so adorable!  However, I'm thinking about exchanging it for a size larger than usual so I could get that same baggy effect from the Wildfox jumpers.

WorkoutWednesday~ Summer Outfits

Hello girls! Welcome back to Workout Wednesday! I have a styling post for you, but instead of the usual fashion inspired outfits, I'm doing workout outfits! I know most people might not think of it this way, but there has to be so much versatility when wearing clothes to work out, because there are infinitely many ways and places to work out! Summer's been flying by, and I cam making it my goal to workout everyday!

1. This is for the girl who prefers the cold and loves adventures! I've spent a good amount of time at the lake this summer, and it gets really windy during the day, and the temperature changes and surreal! You're freezing 1 minute and sweating the next!  A long sleeved shirt and leggings are perfect! This is my go-to outfit for kayaking in the lake, so I don't get swet, or to run at night, or to even hike in the woods! No bugs will be bite through all these layers! And if it gets too hot, a sports bra and leggings are classic and adorbs!

Shirt- Forever 21
Leggings- Forever 21

Trend to Try ~ High Low Skirts

Hey lovelies!


Today I have a fun post to share with you guys.  During the summer high-low skirts have really made a huge appearance!  I love them because they are so feminine and flirty and can be dressed in tons of different ways.  For this post I decided to dress a high-low skirt in different ways so you guys could get some inspiration as to what to pair with a skirt like this.  I was so ecstatic when I found this skirt at Forever 21 for $19.80!  It may seem like a lot, but high-low skirts can usually cost way more so this was a total steal, considering the number of looks I can get out of it!

Too see the looks, keep reading!

Tag Tuesday~ $50 Outfit Challenge- Graphic Tees

Welcome back girlies! I'm sorry I've been gone for a while but we have had some huge plans for you guys! Stay tuned for contests, giveaways and some new series we're starting! P.S. Don't forget to enter our giveaway!

We're starting to do more and more tags and I've come up with this one! A spinoff off the $20 dollar makeup challenge, but with clothes! I believe I'm the first person to do this tag so the guidelines are:

  1. Clothing and accessories (jewelry, belts, handbags, shoes etc.) must all be under $50.00. You do not have to have accessories. Just an outfit you would wear!
  2. You do not have to use full priced items. They can be bought on sale or at discount store
Everything else is free for you to choose! The theme, the purpose (Where are you going in this outfit? Is it going to be multipurpose?)

Today, I'm going to do an outfit that it perfect for a day out with your friends. It's super casual and very daring!

Look for Less ~ Urban Outfitters Coincidence & Chance Revel Dress

Hey girls!






Today I have an exciting "Looks for Less" post.  I love finding clothes that look identical to an expensive counterpart but for a fraction of the cost.  One of my favorite clothing stores is Urban Outfitters because of the gorgeous hispter style clothes they sell.  However, the prices can be absolutely absurd so I try to find dupes for some pieces with a nicer price tag.

Eve's Lookbook~ Affordable Fourth of July Outfits

Hello everyone! How are you this FABULOUS third of july.... in T- minus 5 hours... depending on when this post goes up, it will be the 4th of July!! WOOTWOOT I have to say, this is one of my favorite holidays! Not only do I get to eat nonstop for 24 hours at my family barbecue, I can also go to my friends' barbecues and have some tasting too. Let's just say I'm a food enthusiast. I'm definitely going to be running around, sitting on the grass, eating LOTS of food and watching fireworks! 

My two outfits, although very similar, a basic tank top and shorts, meet my list of requirements. They're easy to move around in and the top stretches so if I eat a little too much, I won't be suffocating. I might even have to loosen up the belt too! ...woops

My first outfit is a little understated, but still screams 4th of July. Instead of doing blue or white shorts, I chose an acid washed pair to bring in some white and blue while still not screaming LOOK I'M AN AMERICAN FLAG! The red tank is basic and comfortable and the necklace gives it a nautical edge. To cuten up the outfit I added a denim headband with a bow! Almost house on the prairie like! SO CUTE! 
Headband: Claire's
Tank top: WetSeal
Belt: American Eagle
Shorts: Delia's

Kaylie's Lookbook ~ 4th of July

Hey everyone!!

I'm super excited for tomorrow because it's the 4th of July!  For all of you readers that live in the states, tomorrow is one of the best times of the summer.  It's a great way to wind down and enjoy a nice barbecue and fireworks with family and friends to welcome the summer.  I love dressing for the occasion, and the 4th of July is one of the most fun to coordinate your outfit for.  Since the holiday lands in the peak time of the summer, dressing smart is essential for comfort.  I love to wear breathable clothing without much jewelry since outdoor activities can become really sweaty outside.  Also, it is essential that the clothing be easy to run around in since there are always water fights and volleyball matches nearby.


Outfit #1


I love this outfit for a more fancy event, although it can easily be worn to casual outings too.  It is super cute and trend, as well as easy to wear since it doesn't involve many components.

NYC Bound~ Eve's Fashion Haul

Hello everyone! You guys have no idea how excited I am to post this!! This past weekend, Kaylie and I went to NYC and of course, did some shopping!! We spent a lot of our time watching Broadway shows and eating authentic NYC food, but we hit up H and M, Forever 21, Strawberry, Victoria's Secret, Inglot, Sephora, Walgreens, Duane Reade and CVS. We couldn't pass up all these beautiful stores!

We did most of our damage at Forever 21, obviously! The store in Times Square is better than my wildest dreams! It has all the clothes you could possibly imagine and has these gorgeous sections that look like little boutiques inside the store! There are sections of romantic clothing, edgy clothing, casual clothing, workout clothes, skincare and makeup, shoes, accessories... basically the entire online store right in front of you! 

First, we went to H and M and we were shocked to see that they were having a HUGE sale! There was SO much gorgeous stuff but, as per usual, H and M clothing does not fit me that well, so I walked out with two things, not too shabby.

I purchased this cheetah romper for $10 thinking that I could style it, but after really trying it on and seeing how it looked, I think this is something that will stay on the hanger. Do you agree?


We can get up close and personal if you click read more!

NYC Bound~ Eve's Beauty Haul

Welcome to Part 2 of my NYC damage! I couldn't fit all my fashion and beauty purchases in one haul so I decided to break it up into twice the fun! Although I went to Inglot, Sephora, Duane Reade and CVS, I only purchased makeup from CVS and surprisingly enough, purchased some skincare items from Forever 21!


In Forever 21, I could've done some serious damage in the skincare section, but I restrained myself and limited myself to face masks. You should've seen me in the store! I was walking around with 10 or more face masks, nose pore strips, eyeshadows, nail polishes... it was crazy! I've been interested in trying out some asian beauty products and I saw that these face masks were made in Korea! I haven't seen these at my store an I decided to get 1 of each kind just to try it out. I will order more online if I really like them! Reviews are on the way!



The glitter and sparkles await you!

OOTD ~ Day at the Outlets

Hello Beauties!




Today I'm heading off to the outlets and a dinner so I decided to write up a quick OOTD.  I love this look for the summer because it's light and simple, yet able to be dressed up and worn to a nice dinner.  After the outlets I'm planning on dining with some of my friends at a delicious Italian restaurant just across the street.  This look is comfortable enough to spend a whole day shopping in, but also posh enough to wear to a fancy restaurant.

Keep reading to find out how I put this outfit together!

Summer Jewelry!

Summer is one of my favorite seasons for jewelry!  There are so many fun events and places to show off your favorite pieces.  Jewelry is one of my favorite things to dress up an outfit.  However, I still love a few casual pieces to accompany an outfit for the beach or a shopping trip.



I absolutely ADORE my Michael Kors watch in rose gold.  It's a staple piece in my wardrobe that literally matches with everything!  I love how I can wear this with a really fancy dress to a dinner or with a t-shirt and jean shorts for a more casual look.  For a less expensive option but the same look, Fossil makes watches that look very similar and are lighter on the wrist.

StyleSunday~ Summer Dresses!

Hey everyone! Welcome to StyleSunday!! I'm so happy to be debuting our weekly tips, tricks and ideas on the how tos of fashion! This week is going to be styling versatile summer outfits! I'm going to be styling 3 summer dresses around the same jewelry! Hope you enjoy!

Jewelry- I went for an eclectic, laid back look for my jewelry. No necklaces. Just bracelets and rings. I kept 2 simple bracelets on. The pink of the evil eye bracelet brings out the pink in the braided bracelets and gives it a casual by sophisticated look. The owl ring keeps things glam but quirky. It also has a stretchy band so anyone could wear it!

On the other hand, I kept it simple with 2 chunky rings, no bracelets so they wouldn't be fighting for attention. The thumb ring also has a stretchy band so it can be worn on any finger!

OOTD~ Lunch with the Girls!

Hey everyone! Yesterday was officially the start of my summer and the girls and I decided to go out to the country club to get a bite! 

This dress is the Urban Outfitters Coincidence and Chance Revel Dress. It's one of my favorite buys for the summer and it's on sale right now! http://www.urbanoutfitters.com/urban/catalog/productdetail.jsp?id=23395015 It's perfect for a hot summer day! It's lightweight, the perfect length and super cute! I paired it with a belt from a local boutique that has some floral detailing in it. It brings out the lace detailing in the dress and totally completes the earthy, natural look!

Check out my arm candy for the day! I decided to glam up the dress a little with some sparkly arm candy! Pearls add class to any outfit, and who wouldn't want to wear a crystal tennis bracelet to a country club on a nice afternoon? And to top it all off... this adorable bangle set from Claire's! Who said inexpensive jewelry couldn't be fashionable! You just have to keep your eyes out at stores like Claire's, Forever 21, H&M, Charlotte Russe and WetSeal! You're definitely going to find something!

To bring the look together, I wore a pair of Steve Madden wedges. These wedges bring together the whole outfit, tying in the brown belt and finishing off the rustic, boho glam look I was going for. They're not too casual for the country club and they give me a little boost. The 2 inch wedge is comfortable and practical! This is definitely another one of my favorite summer buys! I purchased them fro TJMaxx for $39.99 US, and they're sold at DSW online, although they're currently out of stock! If you want the shoes... keep checking! http://www.dsw.com/shoe/sm+women's+shelbi+wedge+sandal?prodId=216503 I'm sure you can find a pair of similar shoes anywhere! A pair of staple brown wedges are necessary in a girl's closet!

This outfit is one of my favorites for the upcoming season! It has a soft, natural, effortless look with a touch of elegance! Definitely going to be one of my staple outfits, how about you?
