Desert Days // A Summer Lookbook

Western Ways

Wearing: Garage Clothing shirt, Forever 21 culottes and purse, Birkenstock sandals

This past week I traded New Jersey's hot, humid and sticky climate for Arizona's even hotter yet dry temperatures. I'll have many blog posts up from my trip with this being the first. Once we arrived in Arizona the first destination we hit was the Desert Botanical Gardens and to describe it simply, the gardens were basically a half mile square filled (every square inch other then the walkways!) with variations of instal-worthy cacti and other desert plants that were just as beautiful. Considering that I visited the Gardens at sundown, I was able to wear my culottes- which hit right below my knee- without passing out. To add a western touch I wore a bandana simply tied around my neck, definitely one of my favorite trends at the moment!

My Top Summer Trends // New Video

Between fringe, denim and bandanas there have been one too many trends I've been constantly wearing this summer. Check out my latest video to see what they are!! 

White Kicks // Air Force 1s

Wearing: American Apparel top, F21 shorts and hat, Nike Air Force 1s, Mansur Gavriel bucket bag

My obsession with white sneakers is not something that I try to hide... in most of my posts I am proudly rocking my Adidas Superstars, but even I admit sometimes my obsession can be a little overdone which is why I decided to snatch up another pair of white sneakers. This time around I chose a pair of Nike Air Force 1s and they have definitely satisfied all of my white sneaker desires. Today I went for a simple look to place focus on my new kicks as well as this hat from Forever 21, I've been eyeing the concha hat from Free People for the longest time and this hat is an incredible dupe.

Back on Black

Wearing: F21 kimono, h&m overalls, Urban Outfitters bralette, Adidas superstars, Bauble Bar necklace

Black during the summer definitely does not satisfy everbody's taste. But, I have to say, black is consistent at least. Year after year many people daringly rock black on black despite the season or occasion... hence why I decided to feature this look in my latest video also: Summer Outfits 2015.

High Bun High Hopes

Wearing: h&m top and pants, vest from some boutique in london, h&m sneakers

This oversized cape/vest was hands down one of my best finds while in Europe a few months back. Although I kind of feel like superman (or is it batman?) at times when wearing it because of its fluidity, I absolutely adore the effortless feel it gives. I paired the vest with a summer favorite of mine: culottes: I haven't featured many culottes in outfit posts yet but if you check out my YouTube channel- where I've featured them plenty of times- you will definitely be able to see my culotte obsession!
