Boohoo: Back to School

You know, this definitely shows my age but I am loving this 90’s trend in fashion these days. The other day, I went shopping and it brought a really big smile to my face to see things I used to lust over as a teenager but clearly could not convince my mom to buy. Hours and hours sifting through the latest Delia’s catalog and circling my favorites, which then led to calculating how much the grand total would be. It was always hundreds and hundreds of dollars (shopaholic since birth). It has been really strange being able to nab stuff off my teen wishlists, but I have to say, it’s been a complete trip to get to wear things from my youth.

I especially love the back to school collection from Boohoo because it looks like it came straight from Cher Horowitz’s closet, and I am so down with that. Like, if you were a 90’s teen and didn’t emulate her, were you even a 90’s girl? I personally wished that I had her revolving closet (and still do to be honest), but looking through this collection was the next best thing. I am beyond obsessed with these overalls, and I’m sorry for all my readers because you are going to see them over and over and over again. Can you imagine them paired with Mickey ears? Ugh, I can’t.

Boohoo #TBT Style Icon: Audrey Inspired

Everyone bases their style on someone, right? Sure, I love my geekery, but the basis for the way I style those geeky outfits, makeup, accessories and hair comes from the most perfect lady in the history of ladies: Audrey Hepburn. I like high waists, form flattering silhouettes and classics paired with tons of personality. I like high buns, cat eyed sunglasses and strong brows. But most importantly, I like the heart and soul behind the icon that was Audrey Hepburn, and hope I can portray even 1/4 of that with my own style and life.

That’s why when Boohoo asked me to recreate a style icon’s look using a dress from their immensely awesome dress line, I jumped at the chance. I think I chose the perfect dress that reflected what Audrey’s style would look like today, paired with a little Melificent on the side. The result? A whimsical shift dress paired with fun and kitschy accessories, and topped with Audrey’s iconic top knot (thanks Blo Coral Gables!). Plus, you know I had to throw a little geek in there – check out my denim jacket’s button details! 😉

Lovable Friday!

1. Chevron Candles

I think candles are so pretty and I love having them around the house, but I never want to light them. Is that normal? I know I definitely wouldn’t want to with these pretty chevron candles from the always fabulous zgallerie. I mean, how amazing are they? Definitely too amazing to light, that’s for sure.
