Mixie Match


One of my absolute favorite trends this year has been pattern mixing! I love it because it allows me to be creative and it makes me step out of my (fashion) comfort zone a little. Sometimes, the outfits I "create" totally work, and sometimes, they end up looking like I was dressed by a four year old! But that's honestly my favorite part of fashion; playing around with different trends and seeing what works best for you.
I paired this mini-gingham print with a larger coral print, and I love how the two colors and pattern sizes complement each other. Not to mention the pop of coral in these adoreable wedges! Hope you like it!

Bubbles & Ruffles

Happy Friday ! With this outfit I chose a simple and cheap base, a black maxi skirt and a plain white t-shirt. Pretty much anyone and everyone can do that! Then I simply dressed it up with a brown braided skinny belt, a j-crew bubble necklace, and a gold watch and the gold j-crew link bracelet. Super light weight for a hot day but so cute and fashionable !

Xoxo,
Madison

Cardigan Class


This is one of my favorite outfits because its so bright and fun! I love the vibrant blue with the kelly green cardi, topped off with my favorite chain-link necklace. You really can't go wrong with gingham and a cardigan! It is definately one of my "go-to looks!" Annnddd, you can pretty much wear it at any time of the year! I can't wait for fall, when I can wear this outfit again, but with jeans, boots, and a scarf! (Did I mention how excited I am for Fall fashion?)

Quotes

Here's a list of some of the quotes that inspire us to keep doing what we are doing. We love fashion and want to share our love of it with the world just like some of these people did. We have had this idea for our fashion blog for months and months and we just never did it. We were scared it wouldn't work or that we wouldn't be good at it, but we finally decided we will never know until we try. So that's what we did. Thank you to all our readers ! We are so grateful to be doing something we love so much and hopefully inspiring all of you do the same.

Love : Madison, Jamie, and Annie

Pop of Color

One of my favorite "night out on the town" outfits. So simple but with a colored jean you cant go wrong. The black wedge dresses it up for the perfect chic and classy look. I love pairing the styled neutral top with a colored jean. Makes it perfect for any occasion from a fun get together to a night out.

Xoxo, Madison

A Sunset and A Straw Hat

Hey guys! My outfit for today is one of my go-to summer looks; a light-weight shirt, distressed denim shorts, sandals, and fun accessories! It's perfect for summer because it's light and casual but still looks put-together.

Let's just talk about these shorts for a sec-- I would wear them everyday if I could. Or maybe I do ... (oops) They're "boyfriend" shorts, and sooo cute. Because boyfriend pants or shorts tend to be a little baggy, I just bought them one size down, and I love how they fit!

Enjoy!

A Little Bit of Sunshine...

Hi guys... this is my first post, so bare with me here! I'm currently posting from Hershey, PA while I'm on my summer break from school and away from my lovely roomies!

This outfit is pretty simple, but I love the mixing of the bright and pastel colors, especially the yellow! It's so bright and lively; just what I need since my summer is slowly coming to an end...
