Now Trending: Blush + Off the Shoulder

The more blogs and websites we come across, the more we see blush everywhere. I hesitate to call blush "pink" though, because I think it turns a lot of people off (including myself). But recently, it seems like its being worn by everyone under the sun - anyone from chic to preppy.

What I like about blush is that it is very soft, elegant (no matter how you dress it), and easy to wear in the spring/summer, as you can pair it with any white bottom. The color looks amazing with all skin tones, but especially if you have a little summer glow!!

This ASOS off the shoulder, blush top is definitely already one of my favorite summer pieces and is something that I am going to wear often in the coming weeks. In addition to the elegance of the color, the off the shoulder style allows you to effortlessly dress up the outfit.

Spring SALES

As the first day of my summer internship approaches, I've been starting to think more about what I plan on wearing and what work clothes I need more of. So, yesterday my mom and I set off for the mall to find a few staples -- tops, skirts, nice pants, and everything in between. (I even surprised myself and bought this amazing navy jumpsuit that J.Crew came out with the day before).

While it totally depends on the culture of the company you are working for, a cute t (like this one from J.Crew) paired with a blazer and white jeans can be a very easy and classic outfit for work. The blazer definitely makes this ensemble a little more work appropriate/presentable but the t is really cute on its own and would look great with a pair of ripped jeans (for a more casual look). Plus, the jewels on this shirt make it a bit different and dress it up more than a regular t. 

These sandals are a recent purchase from Forever21 and come in a variety of metallics as well as a deep red (incredibly hard to find the right size online though). I am obsessed with them, and for only $8.90 I think they are the steal of the summer.

More to come with ideas for what to wear for your summer internships/jobs but for now, shop this look below and take advantage of all of the sales J.Crew has going on -- don't forget about their 15% off discount and show your student ID!
