Happy July, babes! Can you believe we’re already halfway through the year? It doesn’t even feel like summer. Thanks, Coronavirus! I’ve been trying to make the most of the nice weather by going on walks, hanging out in my backyard, and enjoying some outdoor dining. 

This look has been a go-to for a while now. You all know I live in my bodysuits, but I’ve been switching it up with my cashmere joggers. If you’ve never worn cashmere pants, I’m begging you to at least try a pair on. They will change your life. They’re a little pricey (okay, a lot pricey), but I have no regrets and you won’t either. 

I usually add a flannel to this insanely comfy look. My chambray shirt has been my favorite lately since it’s so lightweight. And to make things even more comfy, I throw on my Ugg moccasins.

Start with something tight, like a bodysuit. Tanks are preferred, but sleeves are fine too! We don’t discriminate here. Next, pick some tight pants, preferably leggings, and make sure they’re super high-waisted. Like, up to your boobs high-waisted. You should look like you’re in a catsuit with no wiggle room.

Then, pick some comically large outerwear. Bonus points if it’s a hand-me-down from your dad. Throw that over your all-black ensemble to make it pop. Next, pick some boots. My favorites are Timberlands, but whatever makes you happy! To top it all off, throw on some sunglasses that you’ll probably break in the next month, and pile on the mascara. 

There, you have it, you’re me! You did it! Have fun surviving on CapriSuns and Chipotle for the next month!

Happy Monday, my loves! Today’s look is also brought to you by my increasing separation anxiety from Disney World. I wore this on our last full day when we went to Magic Kingdom, my favorite park! It’s home to Big Thunder Mountain Roller Coaster, my favorite ride of all time. I have so many amazing memories in Magic Kingdom. I went to Disney World for the first time when I was six, and my parents and I ate dinner at the castle. We met Cinderella in the elevator, and she asked me what my baby doll’s name was. When we saw her later in the dining room, she went out of her way to say “Hi, Isabella!” to my doll. I was (and still am) so in awe of the fact that she actually remembered her name! 

Anyway, since it was a little chilly when I went as a twenty-one year old, I wore my lighter leggings and my Star Wars letters. This cropped tee is great for chilly days because it covers the parts of me that usually get cold, but it doesn’t make me overheated! I wore this flannel and tied it around my waist when it started getting sunny. 

My rose gold Minnie ears have to be my favorite part though! I had been looking forward to getting these ears for literal months before we actually got to Disney. I loved them so much, I didn’t take them off for the entire trip and for about a week after I got home.

Happy Hump Day, my lovely readers! Here’s a look I’ve been holding onto for a while. Last semester, I went to a Met Gala pajama party. Yup, you read that right. The theme was essentially fancy loungewear. Since I was actually a huge fan of the look I went with, I wanted to share it with you all.

True to my style, I kept things pretty grungy. I got this slip to wear to my 20th birthday party, and wore my black tights because ya girl was freezing. My flannel kind of acted like a wrap. I loved the way it looked with the dress! I wore my black Timberlands and dark lipstick, then partied the night away.

I looooove theme parties! It’s so fun to get creative and go all out with your look. Obviously, I love to play dress-up. The birthday party that I wore this slip to originally was 1920s themed, and my apartment threw an awesome 1970s party last year. I showed up to a Paris-themed mixer dressed as a French fry to find that my Little had done the same! That’s some sorority magic in my opinion.

What’s the best theme party you’ve been to, and what did you wear? Let me know in the comments!

Hey loves! I hope this has been a great week for you all so far. Here’s another look I’ve been holding onto for a bit. Sometimes I miss my old room :( My dad got me this awesome shirt two Christmases ago, so I love to wear it when I see him to make him happy. Isn’t it so cool?!

I don’t know why, but I don’t usually wear outerwear with this shirt. I decided to wear my ~beautiful blue flannel~ and I loved how it looked! I wore my Converse, which I think looked really cool with the black and white of the shirt and shorts.

I always say I need to experiment more with my wardrobe, but I never fully realize how much I need to until I try something new and it works. I went Black Friday shopping the other day and didn’t get one black thing. Not one! I even got a pastel pink sweater. I usually don’t even try things on if they’re not a more muted color, but I really love everything I bought. Maybe I’ll make a post about it!
