Fill in the Blank Friday

{the little things we do}

1.   I am looking forward to: sunny weather and vacations.  Over the Memorial Day weekend I'm going with my BF and a couple friends to Vegas, and I absolutely can't wait.  

2.  Something kind of embarassing that I still love anyway is: old Mary Kate and Ashley movies.   I've always watched shows and movies they're in since they were on Full House. 

3.  My favorite car is: a black or silver Land Rover.  My BF always tells me that I shouldn't like them because they're expensive to repair and what not, but a girl can dream!

4.  If I could pick one type of weather to live with for the rest of my life it would be: low humidity, 70-80 degree, sunny weather.  To me this type of weather is perfect because it's not too hot, but you can still go swimming, and wear dresses, shorts, and sandals.  

5.  My favorite thing to do after a bad/stressful day is: clean or organize.  There is something that is so therapeutic about being in control of something and seeing it become done. 

6.  This weekend: I will try and be outside as much as possible.  The weather is supposed to be nice, so I'm hoping that I'll be able to read magazines in a park, drink coffee outside, and also eat dinner outside.  I'm also getting dinner and going bowling with my BF and a couple pals.

7.  If I were a color, I'd be green because, to me it means that something is alive in nature, and it's also one of the two colors of my favorite football team and school.  Go Ducks! 

Outfit Crush

{sterling style}

It's safe to say that I've become obsessed with skirts in either pink, orange, or red tones.  I love this look on Taylor, and the pop of additional color with her adorable turquoise heels!  Turquoise heels are definitely going to be added to my spring/summer wish list after seeing this outfit.

Black & Chrome

Do you ever find yourself going into Target only looking for a couple things, like toilet paper or Tylenol, but then find yourself in the shoe or clothes section? Yeah, that's just about me every time I go into Target.  The last time I went it didn't even bother me that I was only there for allergy medicine, I still went to the shoe section.  At only $6.24, these heels were just too inexpensive to pass up.  Not only were they inexpensive, but they're also pretty comfortable which is definitely a win-win in my book!

Mixed Patterns

{kendi everyday}

I had some free time on Saturday, and decided I would try mixing patterns in outfits.  I haven't had a chance to wear any of my ideas yet, but I am so excited to try them all out.  It's really no surprise that Kendi can mix patterns well, and I love how she mixes two different stripe patterns.  What are your favorite prints to mix? Stripes and floral, polka dots and stripes, or plaid and polka dots?

In honor of Earth Day, I wanted to show you all some of the new Conscious Collection from H&M.  I'm in love with several of these pieces, and it's even better that they are environmentally friendly.  All of these pieces are perfect for summer and spring, and even better because now I think I've found a perfect all white dress!

Outfit Crush

Portland gave me false hope that spring was here, and then let me down today.  As I write this it's raining and the temperature has definitely dropped.  Nevertheless, I plan on making this outfit one of my first the next time the sun decides to show it's face.  I'm hopeful that will be this weekend!

Afar, Afar, Away

{Les Nouvelles}

I stumbled upon this pretty white summer dress today, named the Afar two way dress, and haven't been able to stop thinking about how perfect it would be for so many occasions.  Although the price is more than I would normally spend on any clothing item, much less a dress, I'm definitely going to look for a more budget friendly equivalent.
