Cropped

So, I'm not what you'd call a "crop top girl."  Every now and then I feel the urge to pull one out because sometimes my tummy cooperates and sometimes it's not having it.  When I do pull one out, it is typically for a look like this - a little longer top paired with something high-waisted.  Just a little sliver of midriff does it for me.  I love the combo of olive green and black (puts me in the mood for the quickly approaching fall season and great transitional colors), so I paired this black crop top from H&M with a wrap skirt from Express. To complete the look, I added some of my fave black ankle strap sandals.  I was going for cute and comfortable, and this fit the bill.  Check out the details below.  Have an awesome week, loves!

White Jeans At Last

I had been searching for a pair of white jeans that I felt comfortable in for some time.  They were either too tight, too sheer, or ill fitting around the waist. After a year and a half of returns and wasted money on those I never got around to returning, I finally found these.  I've come to realize that most of my recent jeans purchases have come from Express and these were no exception.  Until a couple of years ago, I was never a fan of their jeans.  With their recent collections however, they've put out a multitude of styles, washes, and even lengths (realizing that women can vary in height too)!  But most of all, I've found that they FIT really well.  Just enough stretch to not have that "squished booty look" and still fit in the waist.  To celebrate this victory, I decided to pair my new jeans with a white tank and a denim shirt around the waist for a casual look.  To keep it cute, I added camel toned Calvin Klein heels.  Despite the heel height, they are super comfy because of cushioning in the sole and I love the gold detail on the heel.  You may have noticed I tried a new look with the hair.  Tried some twists for the first time for my recent vacay and I'm loving their versatility.  Let's see how long this lasts. :)
