Sometimes, you plan your accessories around your outfit, and other times, you plan your outfit around your accessories! When you dig up an awesome pair of bright red sunglasses from the depths of your closet, you know you have to figure out a way to incorporate them into your outfit for the day :P With how dreary this year's spring has been, these sunglasses add just the right pop of color. I paired them with a classic black and white dress so that the red of the sunglasses could shine!

I'll be digging through the rest of my closet as I pack up to move in May (yay!) so there might be some more re-discoveries coming your way :)

As simple as this combination is, it is so out of my comfort zone! While this might be considered an easy, comfortable outfit for someone else - for me, flowy tops and dresses are more my speed. I'm really trying to break out of my comfort zone and add more variety to my outfits because if there's anything that life has taught me, it's that you really shouldn't knock it 'til you've tried it! I've loved trying out this casual combination but I'm still deciding if it will be a permanent member of my outfit combo collection! 

What do you guys think? :) Let me know! And as always, thanks for reading

Weirdly American?

First off - let me explain the title of this post. I've always gravitated towards red, white, and blue combinations in my outfits because I feel that these colors pair so well together. Yet when I actually wear these colors together and it happens to not be the 4th of July (aka most of the time), I always feel like my outfit is "Weirdly American". Maybe I'm the only one who actually notices how patriotic my outfits are, but it always makes me laugh at myself when I put together a new outfit combo and realize that I've, yet again, chosen a patriotic color palette.

Anybody else have these patriotic outfit tendencies? Or am I the only crazy one out there?
