Rad Plaid

Happy Monday Fashionistas! I hope the start to your week was just as productive as mine. I started my day out at 6:30 am to get in a good work out and meet with my career advisor. I'm trying to get into the habit of waking up early and achieving a lot more productivity. "Remember you have as many hours in a day as Beyonce." Today's look was inspired by my hectic schedule as a Editor-at-Large, fashion contributor, blogger and a student. I'm required to dress for all roles throughout the week. My cool sneaks get me where I need on time, my socks help with the change in weather and this jacket is just simply rad and makes me look amazing at my editorial meetings. Thus inspiring today's look name, Rad Plaid.

Casual Prep

Today on the blog is another peek into my room. Here I'm just wearing a nice casual look. I paired a white tank, with denim ripped jeans and my fave leopard print booties. My necklace is vintage passed down to from my grandmother. This just might be the most relaxed look you'll see me in possibly? Ha. These pictures were taken in my room and they were taken in a relaxed state of mind. The best way to play up such a relaxed look is to pair it with some fun and expecting shoes; whether they match or not. It adds an element of fun and livens up your look while still keeping it casual. The plaid adds a hint of prep. Hope you enjoy the look and be sure to scroll on to see where you can find how to create this look!

Summer Cookouts 101: Reusing your Beach Cover up

REUSING YOUR BEACH COVER UP

Hi Fashionistas! Jenn here giving you the scoop on how to bring the heat in your near summer outfits without letting the actual heat get to you!

Today I attended a cookout. It was extremely hot out and I wanted to find a way to have less clothes on without looking completely naked. I was on my way to a cookout so I didn't want to show too much skin. My outfit choices consisted of a graphic tank dress which I turned into a tank top and tucked into my high waist shorts.

I have legs for days and it seems these days no store makes regular shorts without cutting off all the material in the back leaving too much cheeks out for my liking. So I wore a beach cover up to conceal the back of my shorts. Although I achieved a goddess like look walking down the street and my cover up draping behind me, the wind was still exposing the back of shorts more than I liked so I tied the front.

After tying the front I was covered up in all the right places but still able to let my skin breathe! I paired my outfit with a vintage cameo necklace, fun hot pink wedges, a Coach wristlet and a rose gold Marc Jacobs watch.

Looking to recreate this look? No worries, Fashionista Jenn has you covered and all items less than $50! Except for the Marc Jacobs watch... I mean it's Marc Jacobs!

"Jumper" into Spring!

Spring into Style!

Here is a list of what you should keep from your winter wardrobe to transition smoothly into your spring wardrobe...

1.KEEP: Your Sweaters: It's okay to continue wearing sweaters during the spring season. Just go for more light weight and light colored material.

2.KEEP: Your Booties: With the weather getting nicer, everyone wants to start bringing out every wedge sandal known to man. Try save money trying integrating those closed up shoes with your less closed clothes. By the time summer hits you'll have enough to get those pair of strappy sandals you've been drooling over.

3.KEEP: Ankle Socks: If you do decide to go ahead and get those strappy heels. Don't be afraid to pair them with some cool ankle socks with prints or ruffles at the top. Don't be afraid to try something new.

4.KEEP: Winter Whites: meaning... smile! Don't be afraid to show off those pearly whites, it's freaking SPRING! Warmer weather on the rise!
