The day I left for college was the day my semi-nomadic lifestyle began. Moves to and from small crusty dorm rooms, more livable apartments and flats in foreign cities have all lent themselves to collecting stuff. Fashion stuff, beauty stuff, memorable stuff.. and just plain stuff stuff. I can’t say it’s gotten easier over the years, but I can say that I have learned to consolidate and let some stuff go with each phase of life.
What I Learned from Graduate School
They say if you want to make God laugh, tell Him your plans. I auditioned for the University of Michigan School of Music Theatre & Dance on a trivial weekend in February 2015. This was the fourth of five grad school auditions. I’d flown to Ann Arbor in a cute peacoat and soon found out that this was a horrible, horrible outfit decision. Upon arrival, I was greeted by 15 inches of snow. The school had canceled classes for the first time in years and there was a slight possibility that the audition could be delayed or even rescheduled.
Strutting in the Street
I was gifted with this beautiful pleated skirt and I love how comfortable and stylish it is! We all need the one piece that flows in the wind when we walk. It goes perfect with an off-the-shoulder top and is synched at the waist for a flawless spring look.
Styled on Easter Sunday
We were blessed today with beautiful weather to celebrate the resurrection of Jesus! I decided to wear something fun and not as floral or traditional this year. It’s been years since I’ve owned anything with polka dots! I found this fun and flirty skirt from SheInsider and couldn’t pass it up. The material is incredibly durable, high quality and can be worn throughout the spring and summer seasons.
It can be dressed up or dressed down which provides a sense of flexibility for every fashionista. The soft pink crop top was an accidental find. I stumbled upon it and it ended up being the perfect addition to this outfit. I rarely ever wear crop tops, but since the skirt is high waisted it really balances out proportionally. Check out the outfit details.
