Finals & Fashion Friday

Hey everyone! Long time no post right? Well all the stress, studying and late nights for AP testing and Finals is finally over, and school is finally out which means more posts and maybe starting a Youtube Channel!! Yay! My youtube channel will mostly feature lookbooks, occasional DIYs, I'm not completely sure, but it hopefully should be a fashion/lifestyle channel. (Everything is still in the working, but I've been thinking about making one for the longest time.)

Anyways, back to the post. Yes, finally school is out, and I survived another year of high school. I finished my junior year, and I finally get to say I'm a senior! The (supposedly) best year of high school! Ahh, I'm so excited, nervous, happy, sad - every emotion - just excited to being closer to the end of high school and moving on into the real world and pursuing my dreams.

Back to the OOTD. I wanted to look chic (of course) but be comfortable at the same time by adding a casual flare by throwing on this denim shirt. The dress itself is simple, but beautiful! I love the color, and the floral detailing at the top. It's very girly and flirty. I added a braided belt to add more texture to the plain dress and to prevent me from looking too boxy. This outfit is perfect for lunch with the girls, a casual date, school, anywhere! Just remember to work it!

Pencil Skirt Posh

Hey everyone! It's been a while since my last post. I didn't get to upload this the other day due to circumstances, but here's a late #FashionFriday #ootd

Pencil skirts have made their way up the fashion world lately, and I love the class they add to a look.
pencil skirts aren't just for the outfit, and with this look, I show one of the many ways to dress down or dress up a pencil skirt without looking like a corporate employee. If you aren't into the whole "dressed up" look, you can make the outfit more edgier by buying different texture/material, or prints. You can even pair the skirt with vintage printed shirt, a plain white tee for extra casualness, or even a slouchy sweater for the fall. The possibilities and outfits are endless!

I am in love with this color scheme - especially the color of my top!
 The back (not photographed, sadly) is a laced back, which adds a very cute and flirty touch.
 Peplum blouses are great because they slim down the waist line, especially with a belt to extenuate even more.
 





Pencil skirts works on most body types, but if you're pear shaped, opt for a skirt that lands above the knee, rather than around the calf area.

I wear this necklace very often, but I do love the beaded design.
Very simple, yet it gives a complex and gorgeous style overall. 


Remember to be confident, and work that pencil skirt!
