Hi dolls! Nicole Richie is one of my spirit animals. Yes, I have more than one spirit animal, I am a complex human being okay? #DontJudgeMe. Anyways, Nicole has come a long way from her Simple Life days. She has really come in to her own, whether it is her fashion brand (House of Harlow 1960), her philanthropic work, her own television series Candidly Nicole, and of course, her style. I

I especially like how you can be dressed up on top with a blazer or a flowy blouse and then adding the ripped denim, which gives the look an edge. I kept it

      My good friend Laura recently left town for a little while and I miss her already. I've mentioned before that this lovely girl is the one who most often helps me take pictures for the blog (and we have a lot of fun doing it!). In what can only be perfect timing, I found some outfit pictures we shot some time ago and I thought it would make a good post. I

Hey dolls, Fall is in full swing and I'm sure the novelty of crisp mornings and windy afternoons have all but faded. Well, where I live, let me tell you, it is getting old. It gets super cold super fast in these parts and dressing cute really helps motivate me to brave the crazy weather. For today's post, I am going to share how to style one of the hottest colors for the colder season.

It's that time of year again ladies. As much as we hate to see summer end, we secretly get excited for the opportunity to flaunt our favorite fall fashion. After all, there is nothing like crisp weather and lots of luxe layers to make a girl feel glam. Without further ado, here are some of my favorite trends for Fall/Winter 2014-15: Color Trends: Red-Handed Aurora Red and Sangria (like

Hello Lovelies! Summer is in full swing and everyone seems to be happier! Warm weather can certainly have wonderful effects and dressing up is one of them. I'm sure many of you have already tried the rompers and jumpsuits that are super trendy right now. I thought it would be fun to do a post on how best to wear rompers and look good doing it for a number of different occasions :) First

After sharing my Best Dressed list with you guys, I decided to play a little game of fashion police and make a list of the worst dressed celebrities and also those that I am on the fence about. So without further ado, here are my thoughts: Misses: This is just too costume-y. It's comical and not in a good way. I love NPH but this is just an epic fail. Katie has the potential to be very

I've had to wear glasses since I was about 6 years old, and because of that I have a huge appreciation for stylish, yet functional sunglasses and reading glasses. I've seen a couple of ads for Warby Parker and I remember thinking to myself, "hmm, I must get my hands on this brand." Since it's beginning in 2010, Warby Parker focuses on high-quality prescription glasses and sunglasses that

This year has flown by -- can you believe we're almost into the fourth month? I am trying to branch out into new things, learn new skills and do more with my time, but it hasn't been so easy.

Hello everyone, I decided to include recipes as a new addition to the blog. I am by no means an expert cook, but my mom is a great cook and she has taught me well. I am a bit of a foodie and I like experimenting with cuisines from around the world. I recently made this ginger chicken curry (popular in Thai and Indian cuisine) and it was super good, not to mention easy to make. I got the recipe

Spring may have sprung, but here in North Dakota there is fresh snow on the ground. The rest of the world is in bloom though, so I have to be a good blogger and keep up :) A lot of what's in this year are trends that are making a comeback like fringe and button ups, as well as seasonal staples like florals and tropical prints. Here are my favorites for Spring/Summer 2014: Color Trends:

Hello fashionistas! Spring is almost here and in what can only be perfect timing, I was recently introduced to Havren, a UK based clothing store. Launched in Spring 2013, Havren is a luxe designer label with a style that is feminine and sophisticated with a modern touch. I love the clean lines and simplicity of all of their pieces which make them very versatile; they can be worn anywhere from

I sometimes get questions about styling and fashion from my girlfriends and even guy friends since before I started this blog. It has always been a fun thing to do and although most of my friends have great style, it is still fun to help them out in the fashion department! This is the first installment in my new feature "Style Q & A". In this edition, I will talk about how to style Harem
