Floral Meets Denim

Today I found a dress in my closet that I do not remember purchasing or ever wearing before. Figuring it deserves to get some type of use, I threw it on and added a denim shirt, left unbuttoned, to take away from its strong pattern and because it works so well with the subtle hints of the blue in the dress. Some white wedges just seemed appropriate since it is that sunny season and I'm starting to feel pressured to wear all of my lighter colors before the leaves start falling.

Easy Transitioning

Today I had three interviews on campus and plans for dinner with my boyfriend afterwards. All of my interviews were pretty casual. However, I still wanted to look put together and professional for them. My challenge was to create an outfit that could easily transition from interview appropriate to dinner appropriate with as little maintenance as possible on my end.

I started with a simple white romper that is very versatile and worked perfectly for this outfit transition because it can easily be dressed up or down. Next, I added a belt around my waist to break apart the white. The belt I chose was perfect because on the front it is just a solid beige color but on the back it has a fun, bright pink design. Lastly, I threw on a black blazer and rolled the sleeves up for a more casual look. The blazer not only covered up the pink part of the belt and my super fun bra, but it also made the look seem a lot more professional.

After interviewing for three hours I was starving! All I had to do was slide off my blazer and add a cute pink bow to my hair and I was ready for dinner at this awesome hibachi-style Japanese steakhouse.

Seriously, how cute is the back of this romper?

Outfit of the Day: Job Interview

If you follow me on Instagram, you know this outfit is from yesterday but yesterday was a little hectic so there wasn't much time to post. Anyways, I had a job interview for a position on campus that would start in august (yay!) and this is what I decided to wear.

I wanted to look casual but still like I tried to look nice. I paired these black scalloped shorts with this ruffled top that adds a nice pop of color. Of course I had to throw on the blazer to add that "professional" look. The sandals are partially because I wanted to be casual and partially because they're the only shoes I own that I felt were appropriate. All together I feel like the outfit came together really nicely and... I got the job!

Outfit of the Night: County Fair

Tonight I went to my local county fair with my boyfriend and we had a blast! It was my first time going to this fair and even though there wasn't much to it, we still found a way to make it fun.

Since we were doing a lot of walking around, I wanted to be comfortable. I wore a patterned romper and threw a crochet cardigan over top to add something more to it. I thought the pattern on the romper needed to be broken up a bit so I added a thin braided belt around my waist and just twisted it around the hardware to hide it. On my feet I just wore a pair of simple sandals with a braided detail. The outfit was super comfy and easy to move around with. Plus, nice and breezy for a hot summer night!
