Just a twenty-something doing her best to stay fashionable in the Derby City.

I love fun prints! Apparently a lot of other people do too. I tend to get compliments with this skirt. One of my better thrifts.
I also love throwing on this structured shirt. It was a good purchase too.

Simplify. Sometimes it’s hard to not throw on a necklace or a belt. I think it works better with less. Especially when the weather’s warm.

New swimsuit! Yay! (and out of the entire internet that’s the best picture I could find. I swear it’s much cuter in person).
I love one piece suits and there’s so many cute ones out there, but being long-waisted is the worst thing ever for cute one pieces. Nothing ever seems to fit right and everything just stretches weird. I found the solution today: strapless one piece! Fit perfectly because there weren’t any straps that had to stretch all the way to my shoulders.
Marc by Marc Jacobs! TJMaxx strikes again. Didn’t even consider it until a coworker mentioned trying it for floppy summer hats. Not much in the way of hats but most definitely in the way of swimwear. Also, a suit that retails for $151 and that was bought for $49.99 is one of the greatest things ever.
Sometimes simple is all you need with a fantastic statement piece. Although, it was hard for me to not throw on a belt with this. It’s such a fun necklace and definitely speaks for itself. Not something that you can get away wearing with many things.

I bought this top on a whim and it’s slowly becoming one of my favorites. It’s definitely going to get a lot of wear in the fall. Pairs great with these awesome thrifted pants as well.

Finally got around to taking some pictures off my camera. No excuses, just plain laziness.
I’m definitely becoming more adventurous with my pattern mixing. A bit more bold than I would normally go for. It’s fun, trying new things out. This thrifted skirt is becoming one of my favorites. It’s such a great pattern.

It’s pretty amazing how wrinkled stuff gets at work. I blame sitting in the car.
Red and purple are so underrated. They’re such a perfect combination.

Blazers are definitely one of my favorite ways to amp up the professionalism of any outfit. Adding the skinny belt to this oversized boyfriend blazer is just the perfect touch.
Also…pattern mixing for the win. I’m working on it. I love how unexpected the patterns are. You never know what’ll look good until you try.

I really need to find a better solution to indoor pictures. They always come out so crappy because of the bad lighting.
I love this one so much. Throwing a blazer on instantly classes you up. And it looks great with my olive skirt.

Thanks to a credit from my wonderful sister I just picked up this super fun high-top Keds from Rue La La. I love the velvet laces. Can’t wait to try them will all sorts of tomboy inspired looks!
