HOME INSPIRATION

I've been thinking about how I'm going to decorate my new apartment since I signed lease! I move in less than 15 days and all I can do is scroll through Tumblr searching for home decor ideas. For my new place, I think I want to go for a very minimalistic polished look. I'm talking whites, neutrals, lots of glass with maybe little hints of black. The theme is quite different from my personally actually. Typically I'm very into a colorful printed space but I think trying something completely opposite than what I'm use to will be interesting. My new apartment is super light and airy which is a perk I absolutely love! There's huge windows in each room that'll go great with draped white cotton curtains. But, as far as my room goes, I think that will be the only place that will consist of much color because its MY actually space where I can sit back and escape. Plus I have this huge colorful tapestry I picked up in Colorado last year that I use as a backdrop behind my bed so that one will definitely have to stay for good. I just seem to love the simplicity of it all. Coming home to a fresh apartment after a long day where the cleanup wouldn't be much. I know it takes time to fully decorate an apartment but these inspirations will just have to suffice for now.

INSPIRATIONS // SLUMBER SUMMER

Have you ever had a themed look for the summer?? A couple of friends and I were talking last night about how excited we were for summer to get here and how the city will feel somewhat alive again after that horrendous winter. Then they began to talk about what their "summer looks" were going to be. One of my friends said: "This summer I'm doing pops of neon!". Another said she was going for a "gangsta femme" approach. 

Then it made me wonder...should I have a themed summer? Personally, I've never had a themed summer -- I've always just gone with the flow. But then again, how fun would that be to change up your wardrobe a little by sticking to one style all summer long?

After some thinking, I finally came to a conclusion. I obviously want to be comfortable, chic, and casual all wrapped into one while I attempt to bear this hot summer. 

So SLUMBER SUMMER it is! Bring on he drapey t-shirts, silk pants, oversized button ups, and Birkenstocks. Yes, I said it, Birkenstocks! 

I think this summer I just want complete comfort. It probably won't happen everyday but let's see how long I can keep it up! What do you guys think about my #SlumberSummer inspiration? 

Sweater weather, better weather

Phew, it's been awhile since I've posted! Sorry to all my readers but it's been quite busy these past couple of weeks. Regular style/fashion posts will resume as soon as possible, but for now, lets talk about how excited I am for one of my favorite seasons, fall. Sweater weather = better weather in my book. I'm so ready for beanies, fedoras, layering light jackets over sweaters, and knitted scarfs. But, besides the fashion, another great part about fall are the leaves changing colors which completely changes the entire vibe of the city. With the chilly summer evenings that just started to occur, which is essentially requiring long sleeves at night, we're finally getting just a taste of what fall is going to be like.

What's your favorite go-to piece for fall?

Sundays Stripes

Here's a little Sunday inspiration! And quite frankly, an inspiration that should be a must have piece in any closet. Stripes. There's just something about a striped shirt that makes me so happy. And lately, I've been in nothing but stripes and prints. It's probably because stripes (no matter what color) go with every single outfit and instantly give off that nautical feel.
Well, I'm hoping everyone is having a great weekend! I'm off to brunch with a couple of friends. (in stripes of course) 

Weekend.

I know I've been talking about summer for the past couple of weeks but today is the first official day! I'm so looking forward for a break of relaxation so I decided to share some weekend inspiration photos.

Anyone have any exciting plans over the weekend?
