The Caribbean Rose

Today, I teamed up with eShakti to show you how I styled my favorite trend with this amazing, customized top. That's right, I customized this top to my liking for the perfect fit! That is the wonderful thing about this company! Knowing that not every woman is the exact same size, you are given the option to add your exact body measurements to your order for the perfect fit! This top was originally t-shirt length but I wanted it to be just a bit longer so my bum is completely covered when paired with leggings. How did I do this? I fibbed about my height. ;) I'm 5'4" but instead, I added two inches to the height and chose the "Hip Length" option versus "Above Hip Length". I've even worn this as a mini dress on a night on the town. So technically, I have a top and a dress in one. Boom. B-) More info about customization here and here. Check out their new line of jeans you can customize as well! I'm uber excited because finding jeans that will stay on my hips WITHOUT a belt is a constant struggle. D;

Oh my gosh, you guys....I'm dying. Not really, I'm just being a drama queen, but I am exhausted from school. SCAD is no joke when it comes to the work load, but oh how it is so worth it. I'm so grateful to have been accepted to such a wonderful, prestigious school. I've even heard that it is the 'Harvard' of Art Schools. ;) Go me! *passes out from lack of sleep*

Any who, Fall is finally here so you know what that means.....Pumpkin Spice EVERYTHING and new trendy pieces to add to your closet! Although it is still hot as heck outside, transitioning into the upcoming season is still easy without bursting into flames. "But how, Autumn???" Dresses, my love, and these three dresses from Tobi are exactly what you need. Styling this babydoll dress with my favorite choker from Zara and a pair of ankle boots to give it that 90s grunge look was definitely mandatory. If the grunge look isn't your jam, switch the choker out for a blanket scarf and add a black wide brim hat for a more comfortable yet put together look.

Having a stylish change of heart, I styled this grey wrap dress with my nike's for that cool girl vibe. 

As for my favorite dress, I added my own sophisticated hippie touch with these Lennon inspired frames and leopard heels. If high heels aren't your thing, this dress would look just as amazing with a pair of patent oxfords or flats. Believe it or not, this would be my date night look....if I had a date. Elle Oh Elle.

Finals are coming up a week from today, and I gotta tell ya....it sure feels like I never have time for anything. I've said 'f*ck it' to making an effort to looking cute everyday.....that is until I discovered how convenient dresses really are. I mean, think about it....you can just toss on any ol' dress and dash out the door. There's no struggle with finding bottoms to match the pattern and color scheme because your dress IS your outfit. Lately, I've been wearing a lot of dresses (a few on repeat ;) to school and have been dressing them up and down, creating different looks with what I have. I've even paired sneakers with a dress you guys! *dramatic gasp* You know what that means right? ;) I've had a stylish change of heart. More on that coming soon. Here, I have a few faves I found all under $30 on BangGood, and as a college student (and an art major...) I appreciate these low prices. My overall favorite is the chambray shift dress that ties in the front. It's so minimal, chic and I can already think of 4 different ways I could style that dress.

Let's face it...we're all doing the count down to the 1st day of the Autumnal Equinox, but the weather tends to fall behind (no pun intended) leaving some of us confused as to how to properly dress for the season or maybe you're not ready to push your summer staples to the back of your closet. Today's post will give you some ideas on how to hold on to your most worn and love pieces just a little bit longer. 

Romper | Denim Vest (thrifted) | Platform Boots (love this)

As I mentioned in this post, I live in the south, so in order to avoid sweating like crazy, adding one layer is my only option until the temperature begins to drop. I wanted to go for a 70s look, so I added my denim vest and velvet platform boots to give this feminine romper a more relaxed, boho vibe. This romper would look just as amazing as a top with a pair of medium washed flares. Have you ever worn a romper as a top? No? Try it!

Co-ord Set | Sweater (thrifted) | Heels

For fun night outs with my woes, I thought it would be super cute to pair these striped shorts with a light knit sweater and a pair of lace up heels. You could also opt for thigh high boots instead if you're feeling extra sexy. As for the top, a pair of ripped boyfriend jeans and flat ankle boots for a more tomboyish look.

Co-ord Set | Skinnies (thrifted) | Booties | Denim Jacket (thrifted) 

I'm so obsessed with this structured crop top and high waisted skinnies combination.  Although summer has come to an end, every business keeps the AC on 'blast', so I'm always prepared with this denim jacket I thrifted a while back. For a contrast of color and a bit more edge, replace the denim jacket with a military jacket.  

Thanks for reading! Comment below on how you would style these pieces!
