Weekend Wrap-Up May 21st

Song of the Week: Malibu~Miley Cyrus. I know i’m pretty shocked by this too. But it's a catchy feel good tune and I’m pretty sure this will be my song of the summer.
Currently Reading: The Hobbit. I started it over Easter and now that finals are over I’ve finally had time to read it. I’m loving it so far, this is the pinnacle of an epic fantasy adventure. Also I have been reading a lot of contemporary novels recently so this is a nice change of pace.
Quote of the Week: “This is the beginning of everything you want” This quote is extremely relevant to my life right now.  I am in a lot of beginnings right now. Beginning of summer, beginning of my internship, and of course the beginning of this beautiful blog I have created and already love with my whole heart.
Life Update:This week concluded the second week of my summer internship. It was also the weekend of our summer exhibition at the museum. On Friday night we had a members gallery opening. This opening was so much fun because it was also my first night as a docent and even though I was very nervous about this beforehand, being a docent has become my favorite aspect of this internship. I just loved being able to interact with all the attendees and discuss the art with them, as well as help them with any questions they had. I can already tell this internship is going to keep me very busy and satisfied all summer long!

Outfit of the week: The dress I wore to the members opening at the art museum. It was a simple shift dress that I ended up borrowing from my mom (perks of having a fashionable mom who is also the same size of you.) I paired the dress with black boots and my hair tied half up with a bow in it. The bow and the dress made me feel like the character Kiki from Studio Ghibli’s Kiki’s Delivery Service. (BTW if you haven't seen this movie already, you really should. It is one of my favorite Studio Ghibli films!)

Starting With the Basics

Image
For my first official blog post I decided to start with a classic. And what is more basic and classic than a white button down shirt and jeans. I love the casual breeziness of this look and the fact that is it a true classic staple. I decided to amp up this look with a bold red lip and a large floppy hat.  This look is also perfect for this springtime, when the weather is nice but you're not quite ready for shorts and a tank just yet.  One thing you should know about me now, is that I always like to have fun with style. Whether it's fun prints, statement accessories, or bold makeup I will always do my best to bring my look up a notch but still feel comfortable and confident in my look. Because honestly it doesn't matter if you are wearing the most basic or out there thing, if you wear it with confidence you will always shine!  Tell me some of your favorite classic pieces? What is a item that you think will never go out of style? Feel free to comme...

My Fall Break: Doing All Things Autumn in One Weekend

Image
Ya this is about a week late, sorry but I've been pretty busy (sadly my senior thesis isn't going to write itself) But I did recently have a great Fall Break back in Ohio. During this break I succeeded in my goal to do all things Fall related. I arrived Friday night, so first on Saturday I went to the farmers market with my friend Jess. Also on Saturday my dad and I went to the Ohio State game (my first time actually attending an OSU game if you can believe it). It was so much fun we walked around beforehand and checked out the tailgating scene. Going to Loyola I miss out on football tailgating so it was great to experience it. We also saw the marching band perform before the game which was also a great experience. The actual game was a lot of fun, even though it was pretty stressful. Even though it was 80 degrees it was still a perfect fall activity. Also that weekend my family and I went to a corn maze and market. The corn maze itself was fun (not very decorated or diffi...

Im Back Baby!

Goodbye Ohio Hello Chicago! It feels so great to be back in the city to start another school year. Junior year honestly creeped up on me so quickly I'm still in shock. Every year I'm worried about adjusting back to city life after a whole summer back in my home town and every year the second I get back I am right back in the swing of things city views I can't wait to see what this school year has in store for me. New classes, New internships, Friends old and new, and New experiences galore. Be ready for more posts coming up where I give a tour of my new crib (best decor yet), showcase my new work wardrobe, try my hand at cooking, and just share new experiences in this city I have chosen to become home. And FYI Ohio is still home to me (It is possible to have more than 1 home) 1st day of classes outfit Also I am a person who focuses more on School Year Resolutions, as opposed to New Years Resolution. This year my resolutions are to focus on my own happiness and ...
