Hello hello! I think if this post taught me anything, it's that I have absolutely no colors in my closet. Seriously! I think my mission for the spring/summer will be to let more colors into my life. It's not that I don't like colors, I just don't usually utilize them in my wardrobe! I have light skin and dark hair, so I tend to float towards the dark side a bit more. But who know what'll happen! Stay tuned hehe...

This is close to a look I posted just last week. I talked a lot in that post about how I like neutral looks with cool outerwear, so I did that again with a different flannel. This is one of my go-to looks because it's really easy to style. It's quick, neutral, and you can basically wear it with any sort of hair or makeup. Have a lovely Tuesday!

crop top (similar). leggings. flannel (i don't know i'm sorry!). timberlands. lipgloss (by Dr. Dana Beauty).  

Do you guys have those outfits that you wear the same way every time? This is one of those outfits for me. I found this crop top at Forever 21 last year and fell in love. You all know how much I love crop tops and Star Wars. This is actually more of a sports bra, so it looks great with my high-waisted leggings.

I could really wear any color flannel or outerwear with this look, but for some reason I’m always drawn to this purple and grey one my dad got me a couple years ago. I completed the look with my lighter Timbs and and some light makeup.

Again, for some reason I always wear my hair up when I wear this shirt. I’ve worn it down before, but I love the look of this outfit with my hair in a messy bun. I feel like this look is the perfect balance between cozy/chill and flirty. This look will definitely always be one of my favorites!

yes, another flannel

flannel (i have no clue i'm so sorry). shirt (i think it's armani?). leggings. boots. lipgloss (in cairo). 

Hello my loves! Here’s an outfit I’ve been wearing a lot lately. I love it so much because it’s chill, comfy, and warm. I think it’s the perfect snowy day outfit because it keeps me warm, but lets me chill out and be comfy cozy. Essentially, I can feel curled up in front of my fireplace when I’m actually in a lecture that Emerson didn’t cancel!

I started with this plain, long-sleeved white shirt that used to be my cousin’s. It’s a little bit looser, and soooo comfortable. I wore it with my typical warm black leggings and one of my dad’s flannels he gave me a while ago. I love the color and pattern of this one, and it’s super soft! I typically wear this one with this shirt because they complement each other really well, and because they’re just so cozy together. It’s like an explosion of softness.

Last but not least, I wore my tan boots and my matching tan scarf, which I briefly lost in the Providence mall two weeks ago and cried until I found it outside Nordstrom. This super squishy, soft scarf is the cherry on top of this beautifully cozy ensemble.

I also love this look because it can be worn with really any hair and makeup since it’s so understated. Today I chose to let my hair down and went with a more natural makeup look, but I’ll also wear this outfit a lot on super lazy days with my hair in a bun and a bare face, and it still looks great!

Everyone has that one outfit that makes them feel warm and cozy even on the coldest, wettest days, and I’m so happy I got to share mine with you! How are you staying warm this winter? Let me know in the comments!

top (no longer being sold at Urban Outfitters). bralette. leggings. boots. perfume. 

Happy Saturday! Boston’s warming up just a bit, and it may be wishful thinking, but I decided to celebrate the temperature’s ascent into the fifties by showing some skin! I love my cozy sweaters and scarves, but I’ve missed wearing crop tops!

This is one of my favorite tops. I know I’ve shared it before, but I’m absolutely obsessed. I think it really matched the particular day’s vibe. It was sunny and bright, but still a little windy and chilly, even though we’re supposed to be in full spring mode by now. One of my favorite parts about this top is the pocket! It’s a little hidden since the shirt is so flowy (which I also love), and it holds a lot. I just love the way this shirt feels on my body, and how it makes me feel when I wear it!

I wore my leggings and lighter boots, as well as some more understated makeup since my top was so busy. I used sea salt spray on my noncooperative hair, and I was so happy with how it looked. I wanted to go to the beach, not class!

This look is perfect for this weird transitional period between seasons. I did wear my heavy jacket, and threw on a loose grey sweater when classrooms got cold. I’m so excited to be breaking out crop tops again!!!

turtleneck (similar). flannel. leggings. boots. lipgloss (in Sanctuary). perfume. 

Hi hi! Today’s look is one of my new favorites. My lovely father gave me more flannels! He’s the greatest. The two he gave me are actually thicker than what I’m used to, which has been great throughout this winter. Sometimes I can get away with one of these and a jacket or sweatshirt underneath! The other flannel is red, while this one is electric blue. I don’t wear it as much as my red one because it’s so bright, but I love it just the same!

Today, I decided to wear my flannel over an all-black outfit. I really like wearing a plain black turtleneck and leggings and adding some cool outerwear, like a flannel or sweater. It makes this piece pop and gives you endless opportunities for shoes, hair, and makeup! On this particular day, I stuck with my lighter Timberlands, tight braids (you do not want to see what my hair was trying to do), and some darker makeup. I hadn’t gotten fully made-up at any point the week I wore this, so it was nice to feel a little functional again. As I always say, if you look good, you feel good!
