        The pattern that is making a comeback! The big trend for summer 2018 is gingham and I am here for it. I have been seeing this pattern across the internet from swimsuits to dresses to shoes. My sister (pictured above) found her high school graduation dress in this pattern and looked super adorable in it. I never thought I would want a piece of clothing with that pattern, but I was wrong. My family went out shopping for Mother's Day and I found myself a dress that I fell in love with. It was a t-shirt style dress,...

            I love dressing up, taking photos, and styling my younger sisters for photoshoots.

This allowed for a simplistic photoshoot that focused on flowers and the arrival of spring.  Let's talk about the process of gathering supplies because that...

    Valentine's Day is almost here! I'm sure everyone has noticed the influx of pink and red at the stores and not to mention the candy aisle that might just erupt. The outfits I put together would be great for a casual night with friends or your significant other. Go watch a movie and binge on all the snacks. It's Valentine's Day, it's acceptable right?! I love oversized sweaters so both of the outfits above feature one. I wore tan heeled booties with both outfits because they are versatile and let's not forget comfortable. They are some of my...

        You know the great thing about fashion today? There are so many opportunities to pull inspiration from the past and make it your own. Style is what you do with the clothes you have and each and every one of you has the opportunity to create something unique. Lately, I've been into the 90's fashion trends. To make these outfits featured above I had to head to the thrift stores. Thrift shopping provides a unique experience and allows you to find special pieces that you couldn't just go to the mall and find. Thrift shopping is also held...
