graduation part I : what i wore

today was a crazy hectic day in our house, my baby sister graduated eight grade. i know i know, it doesn't seem like a huge deal, but my baby sister is now a freshman in high school. that is so crazy to think about! she looked so grown up (and not only because i got her ready) but because she is now a living teenager. this is scary. yes very scary.  unlike a few people there  i decided to dress up. *shocker* lindsey wore something nice, perhaps even above what everyone wore... or maybe not. but i did adore my outfit, keep scrollin if you want to see it

*classic lindsey pose* for the graduation ceremony i wore a vintage dress, with eyelit shoulders and eyelit bottom. i am in love with the color of this dress, it is a rustic cream color! with the dress i wore a necklace from a boutique in new jersey. i am obsessed with this dark blue layered tear drop bead necklace.

here is what i wore on my nails, it was my first time trying to use the sally hansen gel nail strips, and i promise i will do a review on the product asap! but i love it so so solo much! can we say the new essie wicked nail color!! i think yes!

this is the bottom of my dress with my heels. can i just point out how (wet. due to the rain) and how fabulous they are!! omg these suade colbalt blue pumps made my outfit. im obsessed.

might i just point out how stunning my un-edited/un-photoshopped legs look. all thanks to sally hansen, and her fabulous flawless leg airbrush spray. trust me i know i would never in a million years think this would work, but it did. and it paid off! this is one spray of the light legs!

NY STREET STYLE; Bright & Early

Good morning guys! Today, I'm sharing with you an outfit I put together the other day that's perfect for this last week of May.

One of my favorite easy and creative thing to do with flannel-type shirts is to put them over dresses. Here, I'm actually wearing a paisley-print dress from Urban Outfitters, and I put my light denim American Eagle button down on top! I buttoned the shirt all the way up, but tied the bottom into a cute little knot to create a more summery feel to this outfit!

I've paired this easy outfit with a cute triangle necklace from Forever 21.

the first look we have here is similar to what georgia would wear on a night out with the gals, or perhaps to run to the mall with some friends, or to wear to a summer carnival. georgia says: i will admit, on my lazy days i love yoga pants and a cute tee, but when it comes time for friday night its time to dress up. Pink is my favorite color, so in this outfit i love how we included some feather earrings and the pink glaze tote.

this look is very different than the first one, probably because this is what lindsey would wear on a spring or summer's night. lindsey says: mint green jeans are my new must haves. I feel like i can pair them with anything, heels, shirts & blouses, but what i love about this outfit is that its so chic and cute! The shoes are a must, love those to death. the opal ring (which i own) is perfect in every which way. the heart sunglasses have been on my wanted list for like ever.

oh my mary! this outfit is on the top and off the hook. this is out of mary's realm but is still a chic look that is fitting for her! mary says: oh my goodness i love this outfit, it is beyond belief. an upward trend this spring is the high low skirt, another one is the color yellow, so it was a must to add this to my outfit. I love the phone case as well, but i will admit that normally i am a kate spade girl, this marc jacobs case is amazing! the earrings and the necklace also complement each other and look stunning off and on, but preferably on!

alanna's look is different than all the looks put together. alanna has more of an edgy style that is also boho chic! alanna says: this outfit is perfect and is something that I would wear on the weekend hanging out or going shopping, maybe even a night out with the gals. printed jeans have been a huge fave of mine for awhile now, and i love to pair jeans with a cute cropped top, elongating my torso. another one of my favorite things is the diy studded phone case, i can't wait to make it for myself. as for shoes, i love to throw on my favorite jeffrey cambell lita's, they're fierce head-turners.

god karen why are you so fashionable? this outfit is soo cute and is surprisingly the only one that contains shorts. karen says: the top is really what sold the outfit to me. if i could i would totally wear this in a heartbeat, the shoes are awesome, even though im more of a nike sneaker girl, i like the bright yellow keds. i also love ripped shorts for the summer, it is so stylish and adds depth to my outfit.
