ROMPER: Bar III (similar Topshop)  //  EARRINGS: Kendra Scott  //  BRACELET: Kendra Scott  //  WATCH:  Michael Kors  //  SANDALS: Zara (similar here)  //  CLUTCH: Gigi New York  //  LIPSTICK:  Mabelline  //  NAIL POLISH: Essie  //  TOENAIL POLISH:  Essie

Red has found a way into my wardrobe more frequently lately.  While I love to play with mixing colors and patterns, going monochromatic can also have a dramatic effect. This darling Bar III romper (similar here at Topshop) matches the hue of my Zara heels to a tee.  I added pops of color with turquoise Kendra Scott jewels.  I’m a huge fan of monograms, so I was so excited about this little leather pouch from Gigi New York.  There’s nothing like getting a fresh self-mani, and Essie is my go-to.  Most of their polishes only need 1 -2 coats and I love that they paint on in the exact color you’re expecting.  Their Mint Candy Apple (seen on my fingers) is the perfect mint green and Lapis of Luxury (seen on my toes) is just the right mix of purple and blue.

I guess you could say I haven’t lost touch with my inner-child.  From playing dress up to my love for Disney, there are a few things that just have’t changed since I was five.  Like many nineties children, Lion King was one of my favorite movies growing up, so when I found this sweater online at Forever 21, I couldn’t pass it up.  I love that the kitschy and playful is currently being embraced in fashion, and thought these vintage style Derek Cardigan glasses were appropriate for this look.

URBAN JUNGLE

TOP: Forever 21  // SKIRT: Forever 21  //  NECKLACE:  Hot Topic //  BRACELET: Kendra Scott  //  WATCH:  Michael Kors  //  LIPSTICK: Mabelline  //  SANDALS: Zara (similar here)  //  SUNNIES:  Kate Spade (similar here)

I love buying separates and mixing and matching for endless, unexpected possibilities. I found both this denim crop top and black and white tribal maxi skirt at Forever 21.  Forever 21 stores can be like a maze, so rather than spending hours sorting through their endless racks of clothing, I often buy online.  At first, I  was apprehensive about the crop top trend, but when paired with something high-waisted like a maxi shorts, I really like the modern meets 50’s look it creates.  As a Disney lover, I do have memorabilia from the animated classics scattered throughout my room, and even in my wardrobe.  Hot Topic (of all places) has an amazing assortment of Disney knick knacks, and when I saw this adorable Snow White necklace (complete with her seven dwarfs), I just couldn’t resist.  Red lipstick is also something I was reluctant to buy into, but I found this amazing, electric shade and I find myself wearing it at least once a week now.
