Double Denim

I recently came upon a new to me fashion blogger - Wendy of Thankfifi - and I'm enamored! She lives in Glasgow, which I visited in my semester of studying abroad in Manchester, England. I've already been inspired by quite a few of her ensembles and can't wait to get our own dog that can become a model in my outfit pics. 

Have a great Memorial Day weekend and I can't wait to share the details of our trip to Traverse City with you next week, but follow me on Twitter & Instagram to stay up with our fun adventures!

300

I have worn these waxed, coated, leather-like jeans many times, like double digits, yet they've never been photographed...even though they're so photogenic! Seems only fitting that on a countable post (my 300th), I wear such an "every day" outfit - blazer, roomy tee, skinnies, and flats. No pattern mixing, no backwards cardigans, just a few items that we can all feel comfortable wearing.

Half Tuck

There is a serious trend happening with blouses, and all it takes is a little tucking. The key is to tuck in the front "under" side of your blouse but leave the front "over" side untucked. It works best with pants, from loose to skin tight, since it showcases the separation, and therefore, the shape of your leg. Despite the fact that you can pull this look off with trousers in tweed, silk, and all other 9-5 textures, it still displays a casual mentality...like it's 6pm on a Friday and you can finally loosen the tie or shed the suit jacket.
