Game Day Gear

Fall and football are upon us...I might not be the biggest football fan in the world but I love to shop for new clothes and this is a great excuse! Game days are perfect reasons to find some new gear to support your team of choice. Mine being the Ravens, I am always looking for purple and black for Purple Fridays and of course game days! Now that I am on in a fantasy football league with the girls maybe this will be the year football actually makes sense! Click the links below to purchase!
 Go Ravens!

From Florida to Fall

I am all about buying clothing that I can wear now and when Fall arrives, and with this dress, I can do just that. It is under $10 and comes in 12 colors, so I will be buying one or two neutrals as well! It was the perfect dress for our Florida vacation and it will also be adorable with a pair of converses and a flannel or peep toe booties and a blazer. The midi length also makes it work appropriate, just add a cardigan and flats. There are so many ways to wear it! Click the link below to choose a color and purchase!

Neutrality

This top is another find from Forever21 and it is marked WAY down. I bought it for $9.90 and it is now $6.93! Click the link below to purchase and hurry because it is selling out quickly in all colors! It is another great transitioning piece that will be a staple in your wardrobe this fall, I have already worn it a lot! It is the perfect length and it goes with any color or print so you can mix and match it with what you already have. Bonus...it is really soft!

Shift & Transition

I could live in this dress because it is so comfortable and great for transitioning into fall. Once it starts to cool down I will be able to wear it with any jacket (denim, leather etc.) and I can dress it up with any type of boot. It is only $12.90 and comes in three different color ways! Click the links under the first photo below to purchase this look.




Have you ever heard of the lower back strap? It is a lifesaver. You attach it to your bra and wrap it around your torso. It pulls the back strap down so you cannot see it when there is a back opening. It is super comfortable which is great! Click the link above to purchase!

We went go-carting and had so much fun but a dress was not the best idea...oops! Maybe that is why I came in last place?

Tank Top DIY

We all have clothes in our closet that we skip by day after day and never wear. So why not take those pieces and create something completely new?! This DIY will refresh your closet with a new and unique top that will not cost you a cent! This is especially good if you shrunk a top in the dryer (oops!) or it just does not fit you anymore for whatever reason. 

Step #1: Pick out the top that you are going to repurpose as well as the fabric from another garment.

I chose the repurpose these pants.

 Step 2: Cut down the side seams of your top.

Step 3: Measure the length of the side seam to make sure you cut the fabric panels long enough. 

 Step 4: Pin two layers of the fabric together (in my case it was pants so I just pinned both layers). This way you can cut once and get both pieces the same exact size. 

 Step 5: Draw lines to make sure you cut straight. Don't worry if the lines are visible after you cut, they will not be after you sew the panel in. 

 Step 6: Cut. Cut the panels thicker or thinner depending on how much you want it to show. It is okay if they are too long. You can cut the extra fabric off the ends after you sew.


 Step 7: Pin down the fabric to the side seam(s) of the top and sew. If you don't have a machine you can also do it by hand. One by one pin and sew until all four seams are sewn! If the fabric you are using has a print and it is only on one side make sure you lay it and pin it correctly for the print to be facing out and the seam facing in. Also sew along the hem to reinforce and hold the fabric in place. 

There you go! Enjoy your brand new custom made shirt that did not cost you anything!

Drunk on You and High on Summertime

My favorite summer time activity is getting together with friends for dinner and drinks. And this past Saturday that is exactly what I did! It was so hot that I wanted to be casual and comfortable and this was the perfect outfit. I love this top because it is a fun twist on the cold shoulder look we all know and love. The skirt has pockets and the fabric is so soft, it would match many tops already in one's wardrobe. Add your favorite accessories and you have an outfit that is perfect all summer long! Click the links below to purchase this look!
