How stinking cute is this outfit?? Don’t mind me as I toot my own horn… I thrifted these fuzzy Steve Madden sneakers a while ago but this is the first time I’m wearing them. They’re just too fun to resist. I paired them with my pinstripe + polka dot button down, dark wash Express jeans, and dainty pearl accessories. The mint Kate Spade New York purse was a graduation gift and my new ‘everyday’ bag (contrary to popular belief, I do not usually switch my purses for every outfit—only for special occasion looks). Anywayyy, now that we got the outfit talk out of the way, onto this month’s recap! Continue reading “July 2022 Month in Review”

But then I realized I don’t have a purse to go with that outfit and didn’t want to post an incomplete look… So I decided to share my go-to going out top instead.

Boy oh boy, March was quite the month! Between several day trips, hosting a friend for the weekend, starting my three-week-long UK tour with my parents, getting sick, and writing three essays throughout it all, it’s safe to say that the first of March feels like months ago, not weeks ago… Somehow each month abroad has been even busier than the last. I’m exhausted, but I’m trying to make the most of the little time I have left here—only four more weeks before I fly to Las Vegas for my brother’s wedding.
