Cool town, evening in the city. Dressing so fine and looking so <a href="https://www.prettylittlething.us/" target="_blank"><span style="color: #666666;"><b>PrettyLittleThing</b></span></a>! Isn't that how the song "Summer in the City" goes? PrettyLittleThing kindly reached out and invited me to take part in its Summer Style blog campaign. I chose three outfits, selecting pieces from PrettyLittleThing.com's summer in the city-ready <a href="https://www.prettylittlething.us/clothing/dresses.html" target="_blank"><span style="color: #666666;"><b>dresses</b></span></a>, <a href="https://www.prettylittlething.us/clothing/jumpsuits-rompers/rompers.html" target="_blank"><span style="color: #666666;"><b>rompers & playsuits</b></span></a>, and <a href="https://www.prettylittlething.us/clothing/tops.html" target="_blank"><span style="color: #666666;"><b>tops</b></span></a>. Even though I live in D.C., the outfits I put together are inspired by the NYC fashion scene in one of my favorite movies, <i>The Devil Wears Prada</i>. Clearly, PrettyLittleThing and I are on the same page of <i>Runway Magazine</i> because it sells a T-shirt featuring the legendary Miranda Priestly (Meryl Streep), and Andy Sachs (Anne Hathaway). Speaking of Meryl Streep, can we talk about how fantastic she is in <i>Big Little Lies</i>? That's all.... Scroll onward to see how I styled my favorite PLT pieces into Miranda Priestly-approved looks that are on-trend, yet timeless. </div>

I had to say yes to the dress. Its name alone spoke to me. The rosy pink color and sheen of the satin are standouts. Miranda Priestly would want this dress on the cover of <i>Runway</i>. I can see Carrie Bradshaw, yet another fictitious NYC style icon, wearing it on the streets of Manhattan. Come to think of it, this dress reminds me of the one Carrie wears in her column's bus side advertisement. (Can you tell I'm watching <i>Sex and the City</i> as I write this?) I styled it with simple silver jewelry and barely-there nude heels for an evening look that's chic and summery. </div>

<b>Wearing the PrettyLittleThing <i><a href="https://www.prettylittlething.us/petite-mint-button-blazer-dress.html" target="_blank"><span style="color: #666666;">Petite Black Gold Button Blazer Dress</span></a></i></b></div>

<div style="text-align: center;">
I have wanted a blazer dress for ages, and PrettyLittleThing delivered. The gold button detailing on this one adds a vintage-inspired touch. Emily Blunt's <i>The Devil Wears Prada</i> character would wear this while lecturing pre-makeover Andy about how to be successful at <i>Runway</i>. Speaking of successful, you can probably tell by the hair this look is influenced by Ariana Grande, who just so happens to live in New York City. Inspired by Ari's music video for "Breathin'" filmed in Grand Central Station, I staged this photo shoot in D.C.'s Union Station, which is pretty grand itself. PLT's blazer dress means business, but is better suited for a night out than the office. I styled it with black suede lace-up sandals, gold hoops, and a mini bag. </div>

<i>The Devil Wears Prada</i>? On a T-shirt? Groundbreaking. I freaked out when I saw this tee on PrettyLittleThing's website. It's so me. Did you know the movie is now 13 years old? Hard to believe. I love layering a graphic tee under a denim jumper dress, and this light wash one is perfect for summer. Plus, it has pockets! Paired with canvas sneakers, a mini bag, and simple silver jewelry, this look is ready for the weekend. </div>

Thank you, PrettyLittleThing, for helping me update my summer style. The PLT Petite collection (sizes 00-10) was the perfect place to find my blazer dress, and the straight size (sizes 0-16) pieces I selected fit my five-foot frame well. PrettyLittleThing also offers PLT Tall (sizes 2-12) , PLT Plus (sizes 12-22), and PLT Shape (sizes 4-16) collections. I like my pieces so much, I want to order from PrettyLittleThing for myself sometime. With PLT, my summer in the city is pretty chic. Let me know which look is your favorite!</div>

Lately, I've been wondering what style defines the decade of the 2010s in America? Throughout history, fashion has been used to visually represent societal outlook and change. The 2010s dressed us as we kept up with the Kardashians, looked across the pond to covet Princess Kate's closet, and scrolled through social media in search of style inspiration. Towards the end of the decade, we, as a country, faced deep change that tugged at the already threadbare fabric of our nation. Racism, sexism, and xenophobia, to name a few of many "isms" and "phobias," became more emboldened than before. People protested, chanted, recorded, and wore pink "pussy hats." There was triumph, there were tears, and there was tyranny.<br />
<br />
I finished Mad Men the other day. The clothes in the show are captivating. Patterns were bold, colors were bright, and silhouettes were whimsical. The '60s, much like today, saw protests, chaos, and change. But the clothes told a different story. Fashion was fun. People dressed up. The later seasons showed the hippie culture with its carefree clothes, relics that the likes of Free People and Urban Outfitters try to recreate. A lot of the topics Mad Men covered are just as relevant now as they were in the '60s; racial justice, women's rights, abortion. If the '60s are so similar to today, why haven't we dressed like it? Sure, we have ModCloth and thrifting, but what's lacking is a large-scale movement like the hippie generation that impacts clothing choices. However, one could argue that movement is digital. Millennials tend to dress, so I've noticed, like social media influencers. Sometimes, being fed what you find as you scroll through your feed prompts a trip to Urban Outfitters.<br />
<br />
The hippies showed us how fashion can be a form of protest and defiance, and in this age of injustice, I'm all for it. The latest MET Gala theme, "Camp: Notes on Fashion," was a form of defiance in its own right. This summer, I want to dress in a way that gives a nod to the '60s. This outfit was square one. Call me Mad Woman. I searched my closet to put together this groovy getup. This crochet dress is one of my all-time favorites. Styled with a western belt, head scarf, ankle booties, bamboo top handle bag, and layered necklaces, this look is nothing but peace ☮️ and love ❤️ . Summer '19 is far out.<br />

For me, and I'm sure for many of you who are looking for jobs, internships, and externships, it's application season. I always find job applications incredibly nerve-wracking. From the cover letter, to the resume, to the writing sample, and (hopefully) the interview, the whole process makes me anxious. The part of the job search that brings me joy is dressing for the interview. I have always loved putting an outfit together, no matter the occasion. What's special about professional attire is the empowerment that clothes can make you feel. When I'm in a suit, it's like I'm on top of the world. I want to share my fashion wisdom and help you feel confident walking into the interview.</div>

When it comes to professional attire, fit is key. If your outfit doesn't fit you impeccably, it will look messy. No matter where you're shopping, keep good tailoring in mind. My personal favorite places to shop for workwear are <b><a href="https://www.jcrew.com/">J.Crew</a></b> (petite, tall, and plus sizes), <b><a href="https://bananarepublic.gap.com/">Banana Republic</a></b> (petite, tall, and up to size 20), <b><a href="https://www.anntaylor.com/" target="_blank">Ann Taylor</a></b> (petite, tall, and up to size 18), <b><a href="https://us.asos.com/women/">ASOS</a></b> (petite, tall, and plus sizes), <b><a href="https://www2.hm.com/en_us/index.html">H&M</a></b> (plus sizes), <b><a href="http://us.topshop.com/?geoip=home">Topshop</a></b> (petite and tall sizes), <b><a href="https://www.zara.com/us/" target="_blank">Zara</a></b>, <b><a href="https://www.modcloth.com/" target="_blank">ModCloth</a></b> (sizes XXS-4X), <b><a href="https://www.nordstromrack.com/">Nordstrom Rack</a></b>, and <b>T.J.Maxx</b>. These stores have the best selections; a mix of classic and on-trend pieces. I like to shop at J.Crew, Banana Republic, and Ann Taylor when sales are going on. <b><a href="https://factory.jcrew.com/">J.Crew Factory</a></b>, the outlet version of the store, has more affordable options. I bought my favorite suit there.</div>

Everyone has their own personal sense of style. Stay true to yours. However, I believe there are some staple pieces everyone should have in their wardrobe to help them dress for success: a black blazer, a suit, a white button-down shirt, a black button-down shirt, a striped button-down shirt, and a black cardigan or sweater. These are pieces you will be able to style in countless ways for a wide range of professional opportunities, to interview and beyond. I love both skirt suits and pant suits, but if you're not a skirt person, by all means, stay away. The same goes for a dress. If you don't wear dresses, don't buy one. It will be a waste of money you could have spent on clothes you love. Let your clothes reflect who you are. Don't try to fit into some mold of what you think a "professional" should look like.</div>

If you don't like heels, don't wear them. I am a heel fan, but a lot of times I find them uncomfortable. DO NOT, UNDER ANY CIRCUMSTANCES, BREAK IN A NEW PAIR OF HEELS, OR ANY SHOES, FOR A JOB INTERVIEW!!! You will be in pain, and you don't want that. Interviews are painful enough without blisters.</div>

It depends on how formal the job in which you will potentially be working is. Some jobs are business casual, others require a suit. Before your interview, be sure to research what the environment is like to gauge what attire is work-appropriate. In my view, it's better to be overdressed than underdressed. As the saying goes, dress for the job you want. For my upcoming job search within the legal profession, I plan to wear a suit, with either a pencil skirt or pants, a crisp white button-down shirt, and heels. This is a classic look that makes me feel most powerful. Find your power outfit and wear it with pride.</div>

When one door closes, another door opens. Since I've started law school, I haven't had the time to blog like I've wanted to. Bits of Style took a necessary backseat for my very first semester. Yes, Elle Woods. Law school is hard. Instead of going on photoshoots around the city, I was studying Civil Procedure.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
This blog has been my creative outlet for six years; a space to express myself and my passions for writing, fashion, and photography. Now that (I think) I get the general gist of how law school works, I want to post more this semester. Lately, I've been inspired by '50s and '60s fashion (thanks, <i>The Marvelous Mrs. Maisel</i>) and editorial styling. I want to share that inspiration with you.<br />
<br />
When one door closes, another door opens. My latest photo series utilizes the doorways inside my apartment. I love the retro aesthetic and the way the doorframe frames the photographs. For this outfit, I drew inspiration from the editorial and retro styling I've been inspired by. The result is a bit British and a bit French.<br />
<br />
Pairing red and green is my favorite way to color block. A sleek scarlet coat and an emerald '70s-influenced handbag with a bamboo handle (you'd never guess it is Forever 21) make the look vibrant. My mom gave me the handbag as a gift. She once had one just like it. Classic Doc Martens are my shoe of choice.<br />
<br />
Here's to new doors opening in 2019.<br />

Jessie from Toy Story was totally my inspiration for this outfit. She's low-key a fashion icon and unofficial "it girl." I rarely wear denim on denim, but the vest works well with these flares for a '70s-meets-western, festival apropos look. I've never been to Coachella, but if I did, I would wear this. Sunglasses straight out of the movie <i>Get a Clue</i> (2002) starring Lindsay Lohan (cough, cough, I mean Urban Outfitters) and a bandana at the neck complete the outfit. Come to think of it, Donna from <i>Mamma Mia! Here We Go Again</i> would wear this as well.<br />

Well, hello! Long time, no post! Much has happened since the last time I blogged in April. I graduated from Emerson College with a degree in Marketing Communications and am making the move to Washington, D.C. for law school. I'm excited for what's to come, and a bit melancholy about saying goodbye to four unforgettable years in Boston. Change is wild.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
I'm not sure how much time I will have to devote to blogging when law school starts. I barely had any my senior year of college. I don't want to stop blogging, though. Bits of Style will turn six (six!!!) in December and I want my blog to continue to grow as much as it can. I've devoted a lot of time to this little creation and am like a proud mother (to keep this maternal metaphor going). </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
I've photographed a whole bunch of outfits over the past year, and I want to share as many of them as I can with you. I've cut my hair since a lot of the "older" photos were taken, so bare with me, and pay no attention to inconsistency in 'do length. Through sharing these photos, you'll get a sense of how my style continues to evolve. I find fashion evolution fascinating, which is a big reason why I created this virtual space. I hope you find a thread of inspiration in my collective, clothing musings and the moments that define them. </div>

I couldn't wear this to the office, because, ripped jeans, but I'm still going to call this outfit business casual. A blazer can make any look polished. I hadn't worn blazers in so long until I started working in a professional environment. Now I like to style them on days off. A blazer, jeans, and a T-shirt can take you anywhere, from meetings, to running errands and dinner out. You can't go wrong. </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
I paired my blazer with a boys Hanes T-shirt I got at Walmart for $4. Seriously, buy boys/mens T-shirts to layer with. They're affordable, durable, comfortable, and classic. My favorite jeans I got at the LF sale last year add a laid-back edge to the look. To counter the ripped denim, I wore ankle boots and minimalistic gold jewelry. A mini bag adds the finishing touch. </div>

It's a snow day here in Boston and that means I'm in hibernation mode. What a great opportunity to bring you a new blog post! I am not wearing this outfit today, but it's what I would be wearing if I wasn't stuck inside while 20 inches of snow accumulates around me. Perhaps if it were a light dusting, I would.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
I call this look "snow day-chic." It's comfy, cozy, and captures the essence of what's left of the New England winter. I don't know about you, but I'm looking forward to spring. Snow in March is a big no from me.</div>

"Please, sir. May I have some more respect for women?" - Feminist Oliver Twist. </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
It's Women's History Month; a time to celebrate and reflect on the advances women of all ages, backgrounds, identities, and abilities have made in society. Women are revolutionaries. We are movers, shakers, thinkers, creators, entrepreneurs, and so much more. We're strong and vulnerable, clever and scrappy. We persist and defy expectations. We raise our voices. We say #MeToo and Time's Up. We demand positive social change.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
I love the color red. It's a power color. Red lipstick colors the words I speak with a stroke of strength and passion. A red coat keeps my body warm that others have branded with a scarlet letter for being too vocal. Isn't it strange how women can seemingly never win? How people try to color us with their favorite shades? </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
When someone tries to paint you with a broad brush, make your colors shine brighter. Be unapologetic in the showcase of the masterpiece you call your soul. Be kind to yourself. Celebrate yourself. Support your sisters. Be an ally for those who are not able or are hesitant to express their complete selves. Listen. Learn. Speak and stand up. We are women. </div>

I wish I was at Fashion Week! I've never been, and it's on my bucket list. Since I can't be there, I will be posting every day of New York Fashion Week what I'd wear if I were actually attending the shows. If I were there today, the first day, I'd wear this black off the shoulder dress from Zara paired with tights and feathered over the knee boots. According to the weather app on my phone, it's 32 degrees in NYC. Perfect mini dress weather. Go glam or go home! A black velvet choker completes the look. </div>

Happy Holidays, everyone! I haven't posted in over two months! WOW! I've been very busy with my last year of college and haven't had the time to devote to blogging. Now that it's winter break, I have more flexibility. My hiatus comeback wouldn't be complete without an outfit post, and, since it's wintertime, a festive look is in order.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
I haven't worn this coat in months, so what better time to break it out of my closet than the holidays? I'm festive in furs! I let the coat be the shining star of the outfit and styled it with high waisted skinny jeans, my favorite turtleneck sweater from Tobi, and my trusty Dr. Martens. The storybook aura of Acorn Street in Boston's Beacon Hill is the perfect backdrop for this casual, winter look. Merry Everything!</div>

<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
A few weeks ago, I applied to and was selected to attend the <i>Forbes</i> Under 30 Summit in Boston where I am completing my senior year at Emerson College. I was honored to be recognized as an Under 30 Scholar among a group of like-minded, entrepreneurial peers. I looked forward to gaining industry insight from top young change-makers such as Kendrick Lamar, Karlie Kloss, Tyler Oakley, Evan Rachel Wood, and many others who would be speaking. I was even more elated to receive a special invitation to the Women@<i>Forbes</i> MIT Takeover, a summit for young women in tech. </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
As a self-taught, rookie coder, I am very proud of the blog I have created. Everything you see on <i>Bits of Style</i> has been executed by me, with the exception of a few photoshoots from time to time. I never would have dreamed of being hosted by <i>Forbes</i> and MIT as a top young woman in tech. On Sunday, October 1st, I made my way over to the MIT Media Lab, ready for the eventful day ahead. I envisioned an empowering, inspiring experience with women doing everything to make the event possible from operating the tech booth to the cameras. Was I in for a surprise. When I stepped into the lecture hall, I was taken aback that every camera recording the event was being operated by a man. I thought this was a <i>women </i>in tech summit. I took a vacant seat in the press section and listened closely to <a href="https://www.nytimes.com/2017/07/22/style/uber-bozoma-saint-john.html" target="_blank"><span style="color: #666666;">Bozoma Saint John</span></a>, the new and first Chief Brand Officer of Uber, a company with a history of sexual harassment. Bozoma is a strong, smart woman who gave a moving speech on what it means to be female in the tech sector, and how solving the issues of sexism takes effort from everyone. I have all the confidence in her ability to shape an inclusive and respectful culture at Uber. </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
Uber is by no means the only company plagued by insidious, abusive behavior. The Weinstein Company has been making headlines for producer <span style="color: #666666;"><a href="http://www.npr.org/sections/thetwo-way/2017/10/08/556559288/harvey-weinstein-out-at-the-weinstein-company" target="_blank"><span style="color: #666666;">Harvey Weinstein's sexual harassmen</span><span style="color: #666666;">t</span></a> </span><span style="color: #666666;">and abuse</span> of female employees and coworkers. His mistreatment of the women he works with has spanned decades. Weinstein was fired on Sunday. What is it with men in positions of power in the entertainment and tech industries treating women with such disrespect, like we are a disposable commodity? I firmly believe it has to do with the "boys club" mentality of these sectors which for so long have kept women out and fenced men in. </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
As I looked at the male camera operators, I felt uneasy. I thought about how hypocritical it was for <i>Forbes</i> to host a women in tech summit only to have the individuals recording it be men. There I sat, listening to CEO of Glossier, Emily Weiss, in a room full of women with their eyes on careers in tech, as camera lenses captured our vulnerable, shared experience through the male gaze. How powerful it would have been to see women cinematographers. As someone who attends one of the top film schools in the country, I know firsthand how the film industry is rampant with sexism. Couldn't <i>Forbes</i> have made a statement on creating opportunities for women in the tech sector? Where is their entrepreneurial spirit? I know many young women at my college who are talented cinematographers. What about their representation? I left the Women@<i>Forbes</i> Summit early and did not attend any other <i>Forbes</i> Under 30 festivities.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
Because this all doesn't exist in a vacuum by coincidence, I did some research on the CEO and Editor-in-Chief of <i>Forbes</i>. It all came full circle. The CEO is Michael Perlis and he joined the company in December 2010. I know you don't inherit a high-profile position without some hearty past experience, so I looked into where he worked before. His former title? Publisher of <i>Playboy</i>, succeeding none other than Hugh Hefner. He took over <i>Playboy</i> from Hugh in 1989. I found an article in <i>The New York Times </i>archives all about Mr. Perlis. The 1992 <i><a href="http://www.nytimes.com/1992/11/22/business/profile-michael-perlis-family-man-no-mansion-this-guy-really-runs-playboy.html?pagewanted=all" target="_blank"><span style="color: #666666;">interview</span></a></i> is a testament to his character. In the interview, he calls himself a "feminist." I fail to see how <i>Playboy</i> is feminist media. He is quoted saying men have, "become a subculture like everybody else." Steve Forbes, the Editor-in-Chief, is pro-Trump and pro-life as he openly expresses on his <i><a href="https://twitter.com/SteveForbesCEO?ref_src=twsrc%5Egoogle%7Ctwcamp%5Eserp%7Ctwgr%5Eauthor" target="_blank"><span style="color: #666666;">Twitter</span></a></i>. Mr. Forbes is certainly not a feminist. If Forbes seeks to be a feminist, forward-thinking publication, it must be inclusive from the top down. It is wrong for Forbes to exploit young people's aspirations for equality as a veil for its own corrupt values. Let it be known, <i>Forbes</i>, the leading business publication, is nothing but irony and false advertising.</div>

T-shirt dress + shirt tied around the waist + Converse + mini bag = the perfect busy-in-the-city look. It's comfortable, casual, and can take you anywhere from running errands to treating yourself to a tasty lunch. One of my favorite spots is Tatte Bakery & Cafe, which is right around the corner from where I took these pictures in Beacon Hill. Their sandwiches are some of the best in Beantown, as are their pastries, cookies, and hot teas. Tatte's mint lemonade is my weakness, especially on a hot day. It's hydration and happiness in a cup. To complete the laid-back look, I accessorized with simple jewelry and sunnies. I'm summer in the city ready.<br />

Happy 4th of July! I hope all of you who celebrated the big 241st birthday were able to relax and have fun. It was a gorgeous summer day where I am. I kept it low-key and spent time with my family. Though I didn't wear this outfit today, it would have been perfect for the holiday. I'm obsessed with this navy blue and white polka dot romper from Zara. The ruffle detailing and wrap silhouette make it unique. Paired with cork wedges, Ray-Bans, hoop earrings, and a mini bag, it's ready for any summer's day. The blue and white look wouldn't be complete without a red lip. 'Zip' by <a href="http://bff.glossier.com/fLTE6" target="_blank"><i><span style="color: #666666;">Glossier</span></i></a> is my summer scarlet of choice. I'm patriotic in polka dots. </div>

Happy 2nd of July! Can you believe it?! We're only two days away from the 4th. I'll be delivering Fourth of July outfit inspo all long weekend long here on Bits of Style. My first look is a modern spin on Americana. I wore this same Topshop navy and white stripe midi dress around the holiday last summer. I've styled it a bit differently this time around. I paired the dress with my go-to white Converse to keep the look casual. A vintage wash denim jacket I've had in my closet for ages (I'm talking freshman year of high school) protects arms and shoulders that burn easily. It's lightweight enough that I won't overheat either. A faux leather backpack holds all my summer essentials: sunscreen, sunnies, baseball cap, and a water bottle. For accessories, I chose my favorite gold star choker to play up the stripes on my dress. Stars and stripes scream Independence Day. Gold hoop earrings keep the look well-rounded. Ray-Bans are the finishing touch. Enjoy the festivities, my fellow Americans! 🇺🇸 ⭐ 🎆 ❤️</div>

<div style="text-align: center;">

<div style="text-align: center;">
This outfit couldn't be more '90s if it tried. All that's missing is a CD player. This look says both "give me your lunch money" and "give me your Hulu account info so I can watch <i>The Handmaid's Tale.</i>" I'm, like, getting serious Spinelli from <i>Recess</i> and young Drew Barrymore vibes from this look. I love how effortlessly cool grunge garb is. A black denim button-front skirt paired with a mid-wash denim jacket creates a subtle double denim contrast. I've decked mine out in pins I've thrifted and been gifted. A lace-up tank, fishnets, Doc Martens, and '90s jewelry complete this wicked sweet look. </div>

<br />
About a month and a half ago, I posted on Instagram asking you all what content you would like to see from me. Now that I am on summer break from school, I have much more time to focus on blogging. One of you requested I write a post on where I buy my clothes. I now present to you my Very Official Shopping Guide! Let's break it down. </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<b><u>American Apparel</u></b></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
Okay, so, they went bankrupt, and are a shopping destination of the past, but I have many pieces from AA that I love. Their tennis skirts, halter dresses, and turtlenecks will always hold a special place in my heart. The store on Newbury Street here in Boston is now closed for eternity. RIP to an iconic clothing oasis and my teenage fashion dreams.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<b><u>Aritzia</u></b></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
Aritzia has the most elegant, effortlessly-chic pieces of clothing. They make their pieces in the most luxe fabrics, from suede to silk. I am obsessed with their dresses, skirts, and outerwear especially. Aritzia is a go-to for me for quality wardrobe staples and special articles I will have for years to come.<br />
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<b><u>ASOS</u></b><br />
I love the variety ASOS has. The online-only shop sell clothes, shoes, and accessories that suit any look for anyone. Their range of sizes is incredible, which I give them serious props for. The ASOS Petite collection is my fashion life-saver. The proportions are perfection; pants and dresses are never too long for my barely 5-foot-nothing frame. Plus, the vast majority of items ASOS sells are reasonably priced and the 10% year-round student discount is a win. If I'm looking for something I can't seem to find anywhere else, ASOS almost always carries it.<br />
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<b><u>Brandy Melville</u></b></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
As I write this, I am wearing a Brandy Melville T-shirt, sweater, and sweatpants. Brandy Melville is a go-to of mine for basics. Their simple T-shirts never disappoint and are so soft and cozy. However, unlike ASOS, they are "one-size fits all." SAD! I own all sorts of pieces from Brandy Melville: tops, skirts, shorts, jeans, dresses, chokers, bags, and hats. I've found their items to be very good quality. I've had some pieces on rotation for over three years now and they still look great. Brandy is also one of my favorite accessory destinations. Their jewelry, hats, and bags are not to be missed. </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<b><u><br /></u></b></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<b><u>Buffalo Exchange</u></b><br />
This thrift store is vibin'. They carry secondhand as well as new pieces that are "in" at the moment and make a statement. Their collection is meticulously curated. I found my beloved Ramones band T-shirt there as well as a pair of jeans I'm absolutely in love with (I bet I have worn them over 100 times) and a chic, heather grey knit bodycon dress. I haven't been there in a year, but I want to go back soon because it is a fashion goldmine, although they are a bit pricer than your local Goodwill. </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<b><u>Emerson College</u></b></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
Yes, this is my college. Yes, I am including it as a place I get clothes. Yes, I am being <i>wicked serious</i>. Here's why; at the end of the year, everyone on campus has the opportunity to get rid of clothes they don't want at what we call the "Shop & Swap." I have found the most amazing pieces through this, from J Brand jeans (major win) and pieces with tags still on, to vintage items, all in impeccable condition,for free! Thanks, Emerson!</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<b><u>Forever 21</u></b></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
In my opinion, summer is Forever 21's best season, followed by fall. It's high tide for the fast-fashion retailer right now. Forever 21 has it all. Their jewelry is A+ as are their tops and skirts. Although it can often times be a hit or miss, when I find the right F21 piece, it's a big deal. I either leave Forever 21 empty handed or with a haul; there is no in-between.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<b><u>Free People</u></b></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
When I want to go boho, Free People is my go-to. Their pieces are so unique and intricately made, like they were designed by woodland fairies. Their dresses and tops always make a statement. Side note: I recently purchased a <a href="https://www.freepeople.com/shop/sequin-scrunchie/" target="_blank"><i><span style="color: #666666;">sequin rainbow scrunchie</span></i></a> from them and it is my everything.<br />
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<b><u>Goodwill</u></b></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
Another fab thrift store. Thrifting is honestly one of my all-time favorite activities. (How many times have I used the phrase "all-time favorite" in this post?) Pros of thrifting: it's eco-friendly, incredibly affordable, often times benefits a charity, and is a lot of fun. I get a rush from scouring the racks trying to find that one special piece. Goodwill has a great selection most of the time, but it of course varies by location. </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<b><u><br /></u></b></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<b><u>H&M</u></b></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
What can't I find at H&M? They have practically built the foundation of my wardrobe. Everything is on point all the time. I'm obsessed with their denim, basics, trendy pieces, knitwear, you name it! A trip to H&M has rarely left me disappointed and empty handed.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<b><u>LF Stores</u></b></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
LF has a total Coachella vibe. Their pieces are very unique and inspired by the edgy, bohemian LA aesthetic. Three words for you: shop the sales. They have end of season sales and they are incredible. I found a pair of jeans for $28 that were originally $238 and they are one of my favorite pairs I've ever owned. Seriously; shop the sales.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<b><u>Madewell</u></b><br />
Madewell is another one of those stores that sells great quality pieces. They are a bit more expensive, so shopping sales is what I prefer. Their denim is incredible. I especially love <i><a href="https://www.madewell.com/madewell_feature/capsulecloset_email/otherclosetessentials_email/PRDOVR~F0370/F0370.jsp" target="_blank"><span style="color: #666666;">"The Jean Jacket."</span></a></i> Plus, they offer a 15% off student discount all year long.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<b><u>Nordstrom</u></b><br />
Nordstrom. Where to begin. My all-time favorite department store. I buy everything here: clothes, shoes, handbags and accessories, makeup, you name it. My most-loved brands and designers they carry include Topshop, Free People, Adidas, Michael Kors, and Rebecca Minkoff.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<b><u>Nordstrom Rack</u></b></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
Fantastic for shoes and accessories. I got all my <a href="https://www.nordstromrack.com/shop/product/1671931/14th-union-basic-hoop-earrings?color=RHODIUM" target="_blank"><i><span style="color: #666666;">big hoop earrings</span></i></a> here for $10 a pair. Can't beat it. I'm Nordstrom obsessed, so the fact everything here is on sale 24/7 is a huge win. The savings are incredible. </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<b><u>Rebecca Minkoff</u></b><br />
Rebecca Minkoff makes some of my favorite handbags. Her designs are chic and timeless all at once. My favorite handbag I own of hers is now discontinued, which makes me sad. It was called the "Mini MAB" aka the handbag I carry 99.9% of the time. I was hoping to get it in other colors someday. She has other bags similar to it, but the "Mini MAB" will forever be my fave. </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<b><u>Reformation</u></b><br />
I've only ever shopped the sales here. I will say, I own two dresses from them and they are two of my most-loved dresses I have. What I love most about Reformation is their clothes have a far less environmental impact than clothes from typical fast fashion retailers and are made in LA. Plus, everything they make is adorable and I want all of it.<br />
<b><u><br /></u></b>
<b><u>Sam Edelman</u></b></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
A go-to footwear destination of mine. I own their oh-so-comfy and chic <a href="http://www.samedelman.com/en-US/Product/EC0229513-3008498/Sam+Edelman/Black+Patent/Gigi+Thong+Sandal.aspx" target="_blank"><i><span style="color: #666666;">sandals</span></i></a>, <a href="http://www.samedelman.com/en-US/Product/EC0222363-3016088/Sam+Edelman/Black+Leather/Loraine+Bit+Loafer.aspx" target="_blank"><i><span style="color: #666666;">loafers</span></i></a>, and <a href="http://www.samedelman.com/en-US/Product/EC0208711-3009380/Sam+Edelman/Black+Leather/Petty+Ankle+Bootie.aspx" target="_blank"><i><span style="color: #666666;">booties</span></i></a>. They suit any outfit. If I'm not mistaken, the brand offers a student discount in stores.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<b><u><br /></u></b></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<b><u>Savers Thrift</u></b></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
My favorite place to "pop some tags" is the Savers in my small New Hampshire hometown...who knew?! Whenever I come home for school breaks I stop by. I already went twice this summer and found incredible pieces like a velvet dress that looks like something straight out of Stevie Nicks' closet and Levi's. Honestly, why spend $80 on Levi's jeans when you can find them at a thrift store like Savers for under $10? They'll have that lived-in feel and be just as good of quality. </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<b><u><br /></u></b></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<b><u>T.J. Maxx</u></b></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
T.J.Maxx has been I store I've loved for years. I've been wearing their clothes since I was little. I am never disappointed on a trip to T.J.'s. Clothes, shoes, handbags, and jewelry are my favorite departments. What's great at T.J.Maxx is they carry clothes from a whole bunch of brands and the savings are amazing! I have scored Free People and Tularosa pieces for a whole lot less. </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<b><u><br /></u></b></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<b><u>Topshop</u></b></div>

Topshop is very special to me. One of my favorite stores for sure. Their petite line is perfection. I own a few pairs of the <a href="http://us.topshop.com/webapp/wcs/stores/servlet/CatalogNavigationSearchResultCmd?langId=-1&storeId=13052&catalogId=33060&Dy=1&Nty=1&beginIndex=1&pageNum=1&Ntt=petite%2Bjoni%2Bjeans&dimSelected=%2FN-dgm%3FNo%3D0%26Nrpp%3D20%26Ntt%3Dpetite%252Bjoni%252Bjeans%26seo%3Dfalse%26siteId%3D%252F13052%26langId%3D-1%26storeId%3D13052%26catalogId%3D33060%26Dy%3D1%26Nty%3D1%26beginIndex%3D1%26pageNum%3D1" target="_blank"><i><span style="color: #666666;">"Petite Joni Jeans"</span></i></a> and they are my favorite high waisted skinny jeans ever. I swear by them. Their skirts are fantastic as are their dresses, tops, knits, and outerwear. Topshop's shoes are also gorgeous. Oh, and their jewelry is really good! If it's Topshop, I'll buy it. Topshop has a 10% student discount.</div>

<div style="text-align: center;">
Where do I begin with Zara. They are another one of my favorite stores. Zara has filled my wardrobe with beautiful, fashion pieces that have a haute couture vibe. Seriously. Zara is so good at what they do. I love their outerwear, jeans, rompers, tops, dresses, and knitwear the most. Zara slays the street style game every time. They keep getting better! Idk how they do it! I have done school projects on this store I could go on and on. #Obsessed. </div>

Someone told me this look was very Posh Spice. She hadn't even by my outfit inspiration. I was flattered! My style almost always favors the '90s so it's very on-brand. I am always down to wear a little black dress. I paired my favorite one from Reformation with lace up sandals, layered chokers, and a mini bag. "I'll tell you what I want, what I really really want!" I want to "spice up my life" with more '90s summer outfits. </div>

It's been a bit chilly lately so outfits like these are still on rotation. Who knew it would be 50 degrees when spring is winding down? I'm not going to have summertime sadness, although a bit of sunshine would be nice. This look is one of my all-time favorites. I love how simple yet put together a denim skirt, turtleneck, and (faux) leather jacket is. I like to think the black tights and sock boots make me look taller, but I might be kidding myself. Someone who is barely 5' can only look so statuesque. If these low temps keep up, i'll be living in shades of cool for a while. </div>

<br />
I feel like a Hex Girl from <i>Scooby Doo and the Witches Ghost</i>. That movie is highly underrated imo. If you want to talk about it, lmk. I'm really into clothes that look like I'm in a coven, especially since the country has been put under some political dark spell. These days, you can find me wearing all black singing along to Harry Styles' album. My personal favorites are "Sign of the Times," "Sweet Creature," "Ever Since New York," "Two Ghosts," and "Meet Me in the Hallway." However, all the songs are divine (much like him). If you haven't given the masterpiece a listen yet, please do! (If you're reading this, Harry, I love you.)<br />
<br />
I finally got my hands on the sheer top from Brandy Melville I'd been eyeing for a while. Your first see-through article of clothing counts as some sort of rite of passage, doesn't it? I'm going to go with yes. It's daring. It's edgy. It's totally Cher Horowitz approved. I'm all about it. I paired the barely-there blouse with a lacy black bralette, faux leather jacket, raw-hem denim skirt, fishnets, and Doc Martens. MAC lipstick in <a href="http://www.maccosmetics.com/product/18900/310/products/makeup/lipstick/lipstick-frost/lipstick#/shade/Model_Behaviour" target="_blank"><i><span style="color: #666666;">'Model Behaviour'</span></i></a> adds the finish touch. If you're going '90s goth, you have to go all the way. This look is sheer darkness.<br />

Stripes? For spring? Groundbreaking. In all seriousness, I am a big fan of stripes for spring. I don't care if it's cliché. <span style="text-align: center;">Some patterns are classic in all their seasonal glory. For this look, I paired my favorite striped Zara shirt with an off-white, floral embossed off the shoulder top, mom jeans, and white Adidas kicks. To balance the boho and '90s vibes going on, I accessorized with silver hoop earrings and a delicate Tiffany bracelet, and carried my Rebecca Minkoff mini bag. This look is springtime ready.</span></div>

We are right in the "midi" of spring! Summer is right around the corner and I cannot wait! Boston has been on the cooler side lately, so outfits like this one are perfect for the crisp temps. I am obsessed with this knit midi skirt I got at the Aritiza sale back in February. Aritzia's sales are amazing! You can find some incredibly stunning items. I styled the midi with all black pieces, (no surprise), as its sleek silhouette suits the classic, stark shade. An off the shoulder crop top compliments the high waist and block heeled sandals literally tie the look together. My signature faux leather Zara jacket is the finishing touch. </div>

Greetings, earthlings! I come in peace. It is the year 2017 in the month of May. I have a newfound love for space buns. These past few months, I have been marching for women's rights, immigration, and science. Planet earth is out of this world right now. It's like an alternate universe. The '60s and '70s had their fair share of protests and bohemian flair. Perhaps the late-'10s will be marked by the resistance and an individualistic approach to fashion; a culture that is more collective in ideology than clothing. As for me, I'll be wearing my space buns and dressing across decades. 🌎✨🌙</div>

Hey now! Hey now! This is what jeansssss are made of! Seriously. Lizzie McGuire is singing about them right now. These jeans are the jeans of my D R E A M S!!! They're one of my favorite pairs I have ever owned. I'm in love with the vintage vibe. I got them at LF during their end of the season sale for almost 90% off. If you're going to shop LF, shop their sales. Trust me. I paired my dream jeans with an off the shoulder top from Zara, my well-loved slip-on Vans, Rebecca Minkoff mini bag, big silver hoops, and a velvet rhinestone chocker. I dream of jeans and beautiful spring weather. </div>

Just because it's springtime doesn't mean I won't stop wearing all black. The sun is shining, clouds are in the big blue sky, but I prefer to be cloaked in darkness. (A bit dramatic, I know.) I don't care what season it is; I will wear black.<br />
<br />
For this dark look, I wore a black denim skirt with an off the shoulder crop top, a favorite of mine. Fishnets and Dr. Martens make the look extra edgy. A velvet rhinestone choker and black mini bag accessorize the outfit. Dark spring is my thing.<br />
