Denim is a trend that isn’t going away anytime soon & I love using it in unexpected ways, like with an all denim button down shirt dress! It’s so easy to throw one of these on & make it look chic & put together for a day of shopping or a night out to dinner. I added some chunky printed platform shoes & a fringe bag to my look to make the light denim dress a little funkier.

MIXED MESSAGES [& PRINTS]!
A summertime wardrobe should always include lots of hat options to keep you feeling shaded! I specifically love structured fedoras; especially when they have a fun twist like a bright color or pattern detail. Instead of sticking with a basic necklace, why not mix things up with a vintage looking bandana tied around your neck as a cheeky, unique accessory!? Shop all the outfit details below!

TEEN VOGUE #BTSS RECAP!
I had SO much fun this past weekend at the Florida Mall being on the style panel for Teen Vogue’s Back To School Saturdays event! We had a blast doing a VIP meet & greet with fans at Macy’s before the panel started. For the day, I wore a printed romper with a peplum waist + a leather jacket + my favorite statement shoes! My bag is actually a vintage find from my Grandmother’s closet & I always get compliments on it – I love the pop of bright blue with this outfit.
