I've returned home from vacation which means summer for me is just about over. July was busy though! Between internship events, birthday celebrations, and family vacation it seems like every single moment so far has been scheduled down to the very second. Despite the hectic month, it was a full of laughter and love, which is all I can ever ask for when I'm with my family and friends. I've gotten much better at stopping and taking pictures of beautiful or intrersting places an

So much to recap after an insanely busy week. The blog was a little sparse the past few days with me readjusting to a new work schedule. I'm excited to start sharing more on the blog though as summer quickly approaches! This past week has been full of internship updates! I started on Monday and already love it. I never really traveled into downtown Richmond growing up, so I'm a late bloomer when it comes to navigating the streets. I did end up taking a wrong turn on the way t

It's skirt season! I almost never wear skirts or dresses before April and now I can finally style my favorite minis for the spring. This cute look is brought to you today courtesy of NA-KD fashion! They supplied me with this cute as ever Levi's distressed black denim skirt. I styled this skirt with my white flutter-sleeve blouse from J. Crew. Sadly, this top is from two summers ago, but I linked a few other down below! I love the contrast of black and white, even in the sprin

Spring fashion is here!! When it comes to dressing for the springtime, I try to keep things on the simple side. There's no need to excessive layering when the weather is warm and the sun is out. I think you can show off you personality with a unique pair of jeans or shorts and a cute blouse or bodysuit. With a simple outfit, throw on a pair of cute sandals and some fabulous accessories and you'll have a fashionable and trendy look that was pretty effortless to create. Right n

The art of pitching has been around for centuries and has evolved over the past few decades. Not only is this a way to captivate employers and investors, but it's a critical skill to know for when you go on internship and job interviews. Now, pitching walks a fine line of confidence and narcissism and it's important to know what to say and how to say it. Today's post is to help those who are currently searching for internships, research projects, creative projects, and other

Dressing up and going out with friends doesn't have to be complicated. Even I overthink what to wear to dinner with my girlfriends or out to a party, but I feel like I'm exhausting myself in the mean time. I love a simple outfit that I feel confident in and right now it's styling a neutral sweater with my denim skirt. This denim skirt is from H&M and only cost $25. I did a little extra distressing on them, but I love this high waisted skirt. It looks great styled with tights

Every day when I get home, my roommates and I convene in the living room while we take turns cooking our dinners and talk about our day. Sometimes we're venting about professors or assignments and other times we're celebrating small accomplishments like 100's on quizzes and the fact that we made barely made it to the bus before it drove off towards campus. With each evening though came the inevitable question, "how was your day today?". I used to always respond "you know, it

Like normal, it's been a busy week for me at JMU. This week is all about Student Ambassadors. For those who don't know, I give tours at JMU and we call that organization "Student Ambassadors". This week, all of us older members are welcoming in new members. After four long months of applications and interviews, we narrowed it down to the select few who get to wear the purple polo and we've been celebrating with them all week. On top of the busy evenings of extracurriculars, H

So I know Christmas was about a week ago, but I have a short wish list for January of things I want to slowly add to my closet. I kept things relatively inexpensive this time because we all just splurged on the holidays. However, if you're interested in spending a few dollars on some pieces that would live in your wardrobe for the rest of the season, this list is a perfect place to start. I can't stop shopping for leopard print items. I shared both a jacket and skirt that I f

Let's start 2019 off with some truth. My style has changed. Over the past six months or so my style has expanded. I say expanded because although I still love my Lilly Pulitzer shift dresses I also love crop tops, year-round neutrals, and cheetah print. I wear hoop earrings just as often as I wear my pearl studs and I find myself shopping at Forever 21 just as much as I shop at J. Crew. For me simpler, tailored style is more up my alley. I love pairing a simple turtleneck wit
