Fashion: White Out

{via}

I searched almost the entire summer and FINALLY found some white denim skinny jeans that fit me well and are flattering. You wouldn't believe how many pairs I had to try on to find the right fit. Some fabrics were way too thin, some cuts were not flattering for my shape or they were not the right size. I finally snatched up a pair on sale at Lord & Taylor and was doing the happy dance in the fitting room when they were just right.

Trust me when I say finding the right pair is worth the wait. They can be really unflattering if you don't have the right cut for your shape and type of fabric.

Here are some of my favorite looks I found on Pinterest.

Sadly, it's almost Labor Day but you better believe I'm wearing these as much as possible before then.

What do you think of this look? What's your favorite way to wear white denim?

Fashion: To Romper or not to Romper

Romper - BCBG, Belt - Forever 21, Watch - Fossil, Shoes - Steve Madden

I used to think I could never rock the romper trend. I have a short torso and some curves that just didn't work with the romper style. Until I found this one. It's not too short in the back like most of them are on me and it doesn't make my short torso look even shorter. Please excuse the wrinkles - I was sitting for a long time before I convinced Jay to take some pictures of me. We may or may not have been in the parking lot of the restaurant for our photo shoot. 

It was a fun easy outfit to throw together for our date night. I plan on bringing this outfit with me on vacation and I can't wait to wear it again.

What do you think of this look? Are there any trends you never thought you could wear?

Fashion: Maxi Love

Skirt and Shirt Forever 21, Sandals Gap

I have spotted so many maxi dresses and skirts this summer that I've lost count. I LOVE this trend and up until now I haven't owned anything this length. I was always afraid that it would make me look shorter or bigger than I was - but I've discovered that it's not the case at all! I have recently purchased a few skirts and dresses of my own and can't stop wearing them. It's an easy and comfortable trend that can be worn very casual or dressed up. I love the way this looks and when done right people of all shapes and sizes can rock this trend.

A few looks I'm loving right now:

OOTD: What I'm Wearing

I love layering pieces when it's not quite warm enough to wear skirts or shorts yet but I just can't make myself put on another pair of pants. These were taken by the very talented Cassandra when it was much colder outside.

Shirt, Skirt, Blazer and Scarf - Forever 21, Tights and Thigh-high Socks - Target and Knee-high Boots - Elle for Kohl's. 

It was a relatively cheap outfit even though there were tons of layers. It keeps you warm even on the colder days! 

Would you rock this layered look? What's your favorite layering piece?
