A Rolling Stone






(Dress: Vintage, Hat & Sandals: Free People, Purse: Italy)

There are few things I love more than a good vintage dress. This one I especially love since it's both denim and floral! It was originally floor length, but I knew I'd wear it more often as a mini, so I made it shorter. I broke out my old huarache sandals from last summer today as well, I thought they paired well with the dress. 
I hope everyone enjoyed Father's day! I spent mine down at the beach with my family and had a wonderful time. 

As for me, I'll be busy packing and getting ready for my trip to Costa Rica all week! Plus my little brother graduates from high school this Tuesday. Busy busy busy, but I'll be sure to post as often as I can! 


Thriftaholic






(Entire outfit is thrifted!) 

I may be a thrift-aholic...I seriously love it so much. It's so satisfying to wear an entire outfit that's all finds from Savers! Just goes to show that you don't need a lot of money for fashion. 
This is just a typical outfit I wear throughout the summer. The majority of my shorts are diy's from long pants I've found, which is nice because then you can decide what length you want them to be! I've had great luck with finding vintage levi's lately which I'm really happy about.
And look, no hat today! My hair is normally pretty boring looking or messy which is why I typically add a hat to most outfits, but I switched it up today.  

It is pretty hot out already today, so I'm planning to spend the rest of the day reading out on the porch, soaking up the warmth! I especially love summer vacation because I get back into reading. I've had so many books piling up that I've meant to read but never go to. First up: Palo Alto by James Franco.

(Dress: Urban Outfitters, Hat: Urban Outfitters, Jacket: Vintage, Shoes: old DSW find) 

Well it certainly was windy this morning, but I'm glad I got a quick chance to snap a few photos before heading to work. The dress wasn't having this weather though.. I pretty much had to hold down the whole time! 
I'm really getting into this minimalistic look, not quite sure how I feel about it yet. I know for sure that I'm loving this t-shirt dress from Urban, though. It's literally the most comfortable thing -- since it's basically a t-shirt! Stripes have always been an unknown for me, but I've decided I like them in the right outfit. Also I'm psyched that I found this hat, it's a little bit smaller than my other ones so it's perfect for everyday indoor wear. 











(Dress: FreePeople Bag: Vintage Jacket: Marshall's find! Boots: Steve Madden)

I've been in such a grungy mood lately with my outfits, so today I decided to break out the whites. This slip dress from Free People is adorable, I love it so much I have it in black too. It was the perfect thing to put on for a very warm Easter! 
Definitely a more minimal outfit, which is nice for a change. I've been so inspired by all of the minimalistic style trends lately and am trying to incorporate that into my everyday looks. 

Hope everyone's having a lovely holiday!

There's no better accessory than a good hat. I've literally hoarded hats in my room without ever wearing them for years, but I'm finally beginning to incorporate them into my outfits. They add such a unique touch. 
This hat in particular holds a special place in my heart. I bought it at a street stand when I was in Verona, Italy. The seller was so sweet, and since I walked by and tried it on about 5 times before buying it I definitely appreciated his patience. 
I'm so glad that it's finally warm enough to break out my vintage denim jacket, it's my favorite! It's goes well with almost everything, and helps brighten up my look since I tend to lean towards darker tones. 
This dress is also a staple in my wardrobe. It's one of those go-to pieces I can always rely on. The pattern and colors are perfect for me, and go well with so many things.
