Bobby Pinned

Recently, I have been really into the whole easy hairstyles look, and this bobby pin look is a piece of cake! I love how simply elegant you can look by just pulling your bangs back with a couple of colored (or not) bobby pins. I especially love the retro curls look that Emma Stone is sporting.  Another plus? You can wear it with your hair up just like the one on the top right! There are just so many options: hair up, down, wavy, straight, curly, short, long, it doesn't matter they all look good! 

Oh and it doesn't hurt that its a super easy hairstyle! It is a two step hairstyle. All you have to do part your hair and clip up the bangs!

Happy Saturday everyone! Today I went out with the family to go shopping, run some errands, and while out in the city we decided to go take a quick lunch break at an adorable little bakery! While I am shopping and running errands I like to wear shoes that are cute but also super comfy so I don't injure myself (I have had tons of injuries as it is, don't need another one).  I also am not one to carry a tote, instead I like one that I can swing over my shoulder and go.

A Summer Like No Other

{All pictures from Pinterest and Google}

As you can probably tell from the pictures it is officially SUMMER VACATION for me!!! To me, summer is the time of the year where I can do all those crazy things that were planned during the school year. All those crazy adventures can finally take place! My 9th grade year ended just Wednesday, and while I will miss school (weird, I know) I will definitely be enjoying my school free Summer!

If you want to see all the crazy fun things I will do this Summer follow me!

Classic White Tee and Blue Jeans

{Top:Nordstrom, Jeans:7 For All Mankind, Cardi:Nordstrom Rack, Shoes: Sperry Top Sider/Nordstrom, Belt: Abercrombie}

Hi all! I hope you are all having a fantastic week so far! Today was my last full day of school! Summer is almost here, I can just feel the sun against my skin! 

For my outfit today I chose a simple, classic, never out of style outfit. It is one of those outfits that you can wear year after year because it is so simple but still chic.  Personally this outfit reminds me of the "All-American white t-shirt and blue jeans." Is it just me?! Anyways this outfit was my little "update" of the white tee and blue jeans. Instead of a plain white tee I chose a white t-shirt with a subtle pattern. I did pair it with a pair of blue jeans, and threw on a blue cardi. However, that wasn't enough "Nicole" for me so I added the belt and Sperrys to pull the whole outfit together.

Prints Prints and More Prints

{Top: Boutique, Skirt: Target, Necklace: Vintage}

Happy weekend! Weekends blow by so fast for me, that I hardly have time to cherish them, but soon I will be able to live in shorts, tanks, and the salty sea!

 However, this is the weekend I am dreading. It will mean I am one day closer to the "make it or break it" test I have to take at school. Wish me luck (I will need it)!

Skinny Kick

{Top:Hollister, Jeans: Nordstrom Rack/Citizens of Humanity, Shoes:Target}

Happy wondrous Wednesday! I am in love with this new pair of jeans I got from Nordstrom Rack! They are my first pair of Citizens of Humanity jeans, and I absolutely adore them.  They are super comfortable and I love wearing them with heels, since they have a slight kick (flare) at the end. 

I am still counting down the number of days till school ends, and so far I have 5 days left! Can't wait!

Thanks for reading!

Stitched Together

{Dress: Macy's, Shoes: Steve Madden/DSW, Bag: Gifted}

Hi everyone! I am sincerely sorry that I have not been posting much lately.  I have 7 days of school left which means finals, finals, and more finals! I have a couple more test finals, and one more presentation (its the make it or break it kind!) 

Anyways, I utterly adore this dress because of its unique colors and patterns! It even has lace cut-outs on the side! I also love that the cut of the dress is a sweetheart neckline, but that there is lace above it too.  It creates a really interesting eye-grabbing top half of the dress.

Thanks for reading!

Happy middle of the week, or otherwise known as Wednesday! Yes I am a bit late on my "Monthly Must Haves" but better late than never! I have chosen some of my favorite items from many different stores to share with you guys. These are items that I would definitely wear myself, and some of them (the ones that fit into my budget) will definitely be bought by me! For summer I love bright colors, fun prints, and something different and unique.

Happy June everyone! I hope you are all having a fantastic day. Sorry about being a little MIA recently, I have been ridiculously overwhelmed by finals at school. 

On the bright side, in Washington the sun has finally decided to shine, and so I am doing a celebratory dance (in the last picture)! Hopefully the shinning June weather is here to stay!

Thanks for reading!
