Shady Style

I love finding unique accessories to put more of my own flair in to an outfit. And since summer means I'm wearing less layers, I definitely keep my eyes peel for statement pieces. I always keep my eyes peeled, but I can be a little picky, particularly with the price. Especially with sunglasses, I'm rough on them and they break easily, plus they always get misplaced or forgotten. I've always had the price cap of $10, sometimes $15, until I found these.....

They're $40 (from justfab.com) and I'm doing all that I can to find a cheaper pair with a similar style. So far no luck, but I'm hopeful!

My Love for Target

I don't know what it is about Target that I love so much, but I always go in for one thing and come out with a cart full. I just can't help myself! Last week I went in looking for a nice wallet that I could use as a cluth too. I ended up getting #3 in the picture, but all the others were tempting too, even though they were not what I needed.

Summer Dress

I love wearing dresses in the summer, although I think most girls do. They're so flowy and cool in the hot, hot sun. I am always window shopping for them and have found some cute ones this year.

ModCloth is one of my absolute favorite stores! The prices have such a huge range and all of the clothes are so cute and unique. I'm somone who likes to wear trendy items but with a twist, so this is the perfect store for me. {dress 1, dress2}

These two dresses are from Forever21 and I picked them because they're a little different, but very wearable. I have made a rule for myself that I can no longer order dresses online from F21, because even when I double check the length it's never what I expect and it's usually much too short.{dress 1, dress 2}

Target was my last stop, they are alwasy the most comfortable in my opinion. They aren't as unique, but the colors are still bright and fun. {dress 1, dress 2}

Back In Black

I got back from my trip to Chicago last night and it was so wonderful; I love being such a short drive away from my sister. I'll be honest though, I crashed when I got home. I don't know if it I didn't sleep well or if it was something about the drive, but I was wiped out!

After my vacation and week of resting last week it is definitely time to get back to reality. And just in case I wasn't sure of that, I woke up to find my bathroom light fixture full of water and dripping on the floor!! So while I wait for my building manager to come I thought I should get to work on my blog.

I wanted to find some fun black items for summer. Black is the last thing I gravitate towards during these hot months, but it makes for a great accent piece and/or staple that could stay stylish for years to come.

I realize the nail polish and mascara are a stretch - but they are new finds for me that I really love! The Sephora matte top coat would also look amazing over black polish.
