Fitting Room Diaries

Hey all!  I love seeing other bloggers post photos of clothing they try on, so when I went shopping at Lilly Pulutzer and J.Crew today I decided I would do one.  

For reference I am 5'6 and typically a size S/M or a 4 and a 36C.  

This Deanna Romper in Scuba to Cuba I've been dying to try (especially after seeing Lucky Day Blog style it here).  This is in a size Medium.  It fit very loosely around my hips and bottom, but perfectly on top.  

Tusk in Sun has been one of my favorite all time prints.  I was so excited they brought it back this year. This dress is a size M.  It's not too short or low cut, which is perfect for me.  The material is heavier than I expected too, so it would be perfect for a breezy summer day or as a spring transition piece.  

Now on to J.Crew (ignore my mother trying on Birks in the background).  This tunic is PERFECT!  It's a medium, with a zipper in the back.  It's a good length and it fits on top perfectly.  

This stripe shirt is a Medium and on sale!  It's a little short, a nice in between cropped and full length.  

This neon shirt is in a Small.  Super soft material and I love the color!  Fits well, I just am not a fan of the "bro-tank/wifebeater" look.  

This eyelet top (in Medium) was perfect!  I love the fit and how lightweight it felt.  It is the perfect summer tee.  

Baseball Style with Fanatics

One of my favorite things about summer is baseball season.  I always try to go to at least one baseball game every summer, and watch many more on TV.  I've been a huge SF Giants fan for years, and love cheering my team on. 

 Here's a  look perfect for a baseball game, either professional, local, or even going over to a friends house to watch.  It's a perfect mix of team pride, while still having a cute and casual look.  A nice light top, fun shorts (these Lilly Pulitzer ones are perfect to match the Orange color of the SF Giants), and comfy casual shoes.  If I'm going to the ballpark I always grab a small crossbody bag that can carry just what I need, but isn't so large I'm lugging it around.  Don't forget sunglasses if the game is during a hot afternoon, and fun jewelry in your teams colors (I opted for a Kendra Scott necklace, they come in so many game day colors)!  

Last but not least don't forget to grab your team's hat.  Fanatics is great for getting baseball hats and any other accessory perfect for going to a baseball game!  I of course picked out a SF Giants hat.  Orange and black isn't one of my favorite color combos (it always makes me think of Halloween). but I always wear it for Giants games.  

 Make sure to check out Fanatics to stock up on all your baseball game necessities: team koozie, mug,  jacket, jersey, blanket! They have everything you need for a perfect day at the ball park (except hot dogs).  

What's your favorite ball game look?

Favorite Summer Shoes

Summer is just around the corner, so today I'm going to share some of my favorite summer shoes!  During the warm months you can usually find me sporting sandals (love my Jack Rogers) or Sperry boat shoes.  I've also included some other cute shoes that are perfect for warm weather.  

Also side note Happy Cinco de Mayo!  I celebrated by eating nachos while writing a final paper.

Lilly Love

So I have had this post sitting in my queue for a while (so long actually I've had to keep changing it!). But regardless I am obsessed with some of Lilly Pulitzer's new arrivals for summer!  The maxi dresses (which everyone knows I am obsessed with), the fun colors and they brought back Tusk in Sun (one of my favorite prints!). I'm also loving the tote below!  Perfect for pool/beach days in the summer.  

(Top: one//two//three Bottom: one//two//three) 

And I case anyone was wondering if I was able to grab anything from Lilly for Target I was able to get this dress before it sold out online (didn't even attempt going in stores).  But honestly this dress was the only item I really wanted, and I'm happy I got it!  

What are your favorite pieces from the new Lilly Pulitzer arrivals?

Graduation Dresses

Hey long time no blog!  I'm so sorry for my absence lately but unfortunately my school work is very backloaded this semester (I've had 2 papers and two midterms over the past week). But I'm back today to share with you some graduation dress picks!  I am graduating from college in a month (eek!).  But at least college graduation is a good excuse to go dress shopping, right?  Here are 6 cute dress picks I found from Nordstrom that would be great if your either the graduate or just attending!  They would look great at either a ceremony or a graduation party.

Also don't forget some cute summer shoes (I'll be wearing my Jack Rogers).
