Leather tote bags have been a staple for many handbag designers for the last several years. The tote is easily one of my most used bags simply because it holds everything! I use my Louis Vuitton Never Full and Gigi New York Teddie Tote on a regular basis but I was excited to introduce this Rebecca Minkoff Unlined Leather Tote to the mix.
From lipsticks, iPhone, planner, notebook, keys, to gum wrappers-- the list of items in my handbag seem to be forever growing. This Leather Tote does the trick just fine and still leaves room for any other goodies I can manage to fit in there.
First, let's talk about the two toned leather. How gorgeous is that silvery-gold inside?
These Yosi Foldable Flats (more colors here) are a life savor...or feet savor I should say. I have about 7 pairs and I would wear them while teaching or even on the weekends if we were going to be walking a lot. They are very comfy and conveniently fold up into that little pouch. I always have a pair with me or in the car, just in case my ...

Off The Shoulder
Summer is here and off the should er tops could not be more in for the season. This mint green version is one of my favorite off the shoulder tops. The embroidered hemline makes it fun and summery, and the color is so fresh and looks great with a tan (or faux tan if you're like me).
This green color looks so pretty with denim or with your favorite white pants for a softer pastel vibe. Off the shoulder tops are definitely a must try for the Summer! See below for more of my favorite OTS picks. Happy Shopping! xx

Recent Beauty Buys
Happy Friday everyone! I have been getting some requests to bring back my Beauty Talk series so I thought it would be fun to share with you some of my recent beauty buys- specifically for eyes and brows.
If you are new to my blog, you need to know I have a thing for makeup and skin care. While in high school and college I worked part time at a beauty salon and loved every second of it. I guess that's where I picked up my love for products and desire to learn more about them and how they work on our skin!
I'm always looking to learn more and hear about your favorites so feel free to comment below!
I've had my eye on the Small York Cosmetic Case for a while, and finally pulled the trigger when my other case wore out. I love it! I was a little worried it wouldn't fit everything, but I have been really happy with the structure and quality of this little bag. It fits the right amount for the girl on the go!
Let's talk about brows. This has been the hardest part for me to "get right". I just could not find the right color or tool to make my ...
10 Things You Need For Summer

My summer favorites are simple. Just give me a great tote bag (more colors here), denim shorts (very similar to these Rag & Bone Shorts, but way less), and a fun tee and I am good to go! I can't share enough how much I love this tinted sunscreen. I don't wear a lot of makeup throughout the week, so this is perfect! I get the light color, and then just use a little bronzer (on sale) and
Crochet Lace
White is an essential all year long, but especially during Summer. This little top (under $35) could not be more perfect for warmer weather and the crochet details make it so pretty and feminine. I felt like I needed some color so I added these earrings for a pop of color and threw on some light denim.
This was an easy look for our date night on Saturday and my Gigi New York Tote (15% off with code FRIENDS15) is always the perfect tote for running around. This whole look will be worn on repeat this summer!

Striped Boyfriend Blouse
Hi everyone and happy Monday! I know last week I wasn't around too much and that is only because it was the last week of school. If you are a teacher or have friends who are teachers, you only know how crazy it can be! With that being said, I am very excited that Summer is here and I am super excited to work on some exciting projects that have been on hold during these next few months.
Now, let's talk stripes. This is a print that will always be a favorite of mine and if you saw my closet you would know I have a hard time saying no to a striped top. However, this past year, I started cleaning out the things I never wear and really looking for those key pieces that will always be in style and remain a wardrobe staple. Like this Striped Button Down Blouse (similar style here and here) .
When it comes to stripes, I typically buy black and white or navy and white, but this grey/blue and white combo really sold me. The versatility is endless!
Thanks for reading! xx

Pink Silk Blouse
Over the past year, I've really been trying to invest in wardrobe staples that don't seem to go out of style. As much as I love a silk blouse, they can definitely be hard on the wallet. Equipment is one of my favorite brands for silk pieces, but recently I tried this version from Vince Camuto (and it's under $100!)
Being the sucker that I am for a classic, silk blouse, this was hard to pass up. I love this with shorts, white pants, or these boyfriend jeans. What are some of your favorite brands for silk tops?

Floral Romper
When I think of my Summer wardrobe, I think of easy, light and fun. This Floral Romper (also worn here) fits my typical Summer look so well.
I love the ease of this playsuit. I don't usually wear a lot of rompers, but this one has to be my favorite. The fabric is (somewhat) fitted and I like the structure. It definitely doesn't feel or look like PJ's as opposed to some rompers you may have seen. I've actually worn this quite a few times dressed up with these heels or dressed more casual with these wedges. This playsuit is the perfect solution to brunch, date night, or better yet- girls night!
Thanks for reading and happy almost Friday! xx
