Revamp boring shoes: with things from the dollar store!

So I have a few pairs of oxfords and theyre all pretty plain. Tonight at the dollar store I spotted these cheetah print nude colored laces and instantly knew I wanted to put them in my black oxfords! Love! They will be super cute with jeans and a red top, or a casual red dress in the summer.

Styling Bright Denim/ Leggings

LOVE this trend! I have red jeans, some teal trousers, and just purchased a pair of pink leggings yesterday! I feel like mixing a pair of bright pants with even a white v-neck gives you a trendy appearance. Mixing a pair of bright denim such as red with a black leather coat and combat boots is also a hot trend! I am so excited to mix my pink leggings with a long sheer lace blouse and some more edgy black shoes for a girly look with a twist! Check out my favorite fashion blogger (Dulcecandy87s) advice on the trend!


Here are some pictures of celebrities rocking this adorable look!

POLKA dots!

Polka dots are adorable.. Every girl had a polka dot dress, skirt, or some article of clothing as a little girl. This spring they are coming back with a BANG! I've been seeing them everywhere and loving it! From a black and white polka dot scarf, or a polka dot hair bow, add this simple yet fun print to spice up your warm weather wardrobe. These 3 items were found at my local thrift store for no more than 2 dollars a piece!

First piece, a navy and white polka dot blazer. So excited to wear this in the spring with a pair of red oxfords or flats.. would be perfect!

Cropped tops are in.. have been for a while! But the new rave is cropped tops that tie in the front! I just love them.. show off the toned tummy you've been working hard for, or pair it with high waisted denim or shorts if you're not comfortable. The bright green is an added trend plus with this top! It also still had the tags on it.. was being sold for 20 bucks but i got it for 2!



This next piece is an orange button up shirt with white polka dots. Totally fell in love with it! Fits perfect and will be adorable with a summer tan and some royal blue high waisted denim shorts!

BLAZERS GALORE!

As I get better at posting more frequently you will see how much I LOVE thrift shopping! I noticed that once I went into a thrift store my love for fashion grew. You open your mind to new fashion possibilities, and I pride my fashion sense on mixing new pieces I may have gotten at H&M or forever 21 with a thrifted item. It gives your outfit flair and personality! Here are a few blazers I have gotten at local thrift stores.

Denim blazers, jackets, and vests are adorable all year long but I especially love them during spring and summer. Throw on a denim blazer with a bright pair of jeans, or a denim vest over a frilly lacey dress. Simply adorable.

Next, a coral cropped blazer. I love finding things at the thrift store that look similar to pieces I see at the mall. Bright neons, and pastels are also very in.. along with color blocking.. So throw on a cropped bright colored blazer with a simple white tee and dark skinny jeans, or a royal blue bodycon skirt.

Next, this is a find that I just found yesterday! Literally 2 dollars! How can you be afraid to play with fashion when you find cool pieces that are so inexpensive?! Like I said, bright colors are very in.. this oversized rainbow blazer will be perfect in the spring with a tight pair of skinny jeans and simple flats.. maybe even some interesting glasses.

So, I literally have almost a closet full of blazers.. chose a few that represent current trends. At a later date I will post pictures of these peices styled with an entire outfit. This blazer is adorable.. looks totally brand new and is the perfect accent to a nautical themed outfit. Mix with a simple white tank and a red tight skirt, or high waisted denim shorts and oxfords in the summer. love!
