Summer Reds

by Tinner in , ,

It's not everyday that you'll see me in a bright, busy patterned dress. I am usually pretty hesitant about buying things that are not incredibly versatile as I find that it makes my closet feel small/limited. However, when Lindsay's sister let me borrow this new dress of hers to shoot, I realized I need to be more open to some of my purchases.

This, for example, is a dress I probably would have never picked out on my own (if we're being honest). It's like growing up when your mom would tell you to try something you didn't like on the hanger and ended up loving it once you have it on in the dressing room. I'm so glad Hollin encouraged me to wear this for a quick shoot because I honestly think it's one of my favorites from this summer.

In hindsight it would have been better for me to wear it with flats, as the wedges made it a little short on me but in general I usually have to buy tall dresses  because of my height. So don't let the shortness of this fool you -- it is a normal length. Not to mention really pretty, soft (silk), and super easy to just throw on.

Navigating SHOPBOP

by Tinner in , ,

Shopbop always offers a really nice selection of pieces and accessories coming from an array of designers and incorporating a variety of different styles. They also always have an incredible sale that is filled with rows upon rows of really cute shoes, tops, dresses and everything in between. However, my biggest issue with their sale is that it takes at least a full hour to sort through the 40 pages of apparel that are on sale. 

SO, to make everyones life a little bit easier, we pulled a few items that we've been eyeing for a while. Click the links below to see if there are any you love!

Skirtin' Around

by Tinner in , , , ,

A super hot trend right now is a skirt and matching crop top set.  BCBG Max Azria has an amazing selection of these sets for the summer, most of which are 40% off! After multiple trips to BCBG, drooling over the chic cropped jackets, and  sets, Lindsay finally went for the purchase. This high wasited blue and white patterned skirt shares a matching top that is also very flattering.

 She decided in order to make the most of the purchase, the skirt and shirt need to be worn separately when possible. Yesterday, for work, she paired the skirt with a simple, blush Madewell blouse. She added her new H&M heels (that were less than $30), her stylish Karen Walker sunglasses, and a bunch of her favorite jewelry from Neely by NVB. Also from Neely by NVB is the Brown Evie bag seen here, that is a perfect size for an everyday work bag.

 What also makes this bag so special is that the colors of the bag represent each school that Neely's team visits on their college tours. While Lindsay obviously loves the Washington and Lee Generals Blue and White, she decided the Brown University's colors were more neutral and would work well with any outfit, as it does here.

ITEM OF THE WEEK- Steven Madden Varcityy Heel

by Tinner in

Since we've both started our internships for this summer, our shoe envy of our fellow co-workers is through the roof. When we do find the perfect outfit to wear with our favorite heels, they can either be redundant to wear everyday or brutal to walk around in. Having done an embarrassing amount of shoe-searching this week, I finally came across these incredibly affordable but chic  Steve Madden heels.

Steve Madden is my favorite place to look when I am not willing to spend a ton of money but when I want them to be comfortable and cute. Visit Steve Madden or click on the links below to shop for  new stylish work shoes or the perfect statement heel for your summer events!

Spring SALES

by Tinner in , ,

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!

Coachella Inspired Outfits

by Tinner in , , ,

Everytime I go on Instagram, my feed is flooded with everything Coachella. While I am incredibly jealous of all those that get to go, it also seems like the perfect chance to do a bohemian themed blog post, as Coachella is defined by crochet dresses/rompers, big necklaces, mirrored sunglasses and gladiator sandals.

I pulled a few different options from Revolve Clothing that i feel fit this look perfectly. Coachella is all about fashion and it's fun to see what the different celebs and bloggers chose to wear.
