Misunderstood & Miscalculated


Skorts are perceived as "so circa 1980's", but it seems like the trend is starting to resurface, and I'm not complaining. With the scorching heat and unbearable humidity also resurfacing, skorts are a definite must-have of the season. They appear dressier than shorts and they have more coverage and movement than skirts. I added leather ankle boots and edgy jewelry to offset the femininity of my lace shirt and floral skort. 

Although I didn't really go anywhere spectacular in this outfit, I would add a leather jacket if I was going out at night or exchange the boots for some nude flats if I was running some errands throughout the day. I did, however, end up at a Panera with my very best friend, Joanna, who I'd like to thank for taking these amazing pictures for me. As always, thank you for checking out my blog and enjoy the rest of your week!

Stairway to Success


As cliché as it must always sound, you truly can never go wrong with a "little black dress". Finding the right LBD that is both aesthetically pleasing and flattering to your body type is the tricky part. The black lace-like overlay and the cinching at the waist on this dress completely sold me. Plus, it gave me an excuse to wear my ankle strap heels again, that matched perfectly! 

I was incredibly late on posting this outfit (2 weeks late that is), but classes and finals are finally over and I can't wait to post more outfits on a daily basis. Thanks for checking out my newest post and stay tuned for more of my summer-filled outfits (and by summer-filled, I mean black)!
