About Me

My photo
I have always been interested in fashion and dressing up for as long as I can remember. When I was little, I always made it a point to “match” everything, and even wore dresses everyday to school for my entire 2nd grade school year. This interest has stuck with me to the present day and has grown into something that I have become very passionate about. I plan to take this passion and turn it into a career. I attend FIDM LA as a Fashion Design major. Coming from a small town and living with a small budget, I have to be creative in achieving the kind of style I like. This blog is a side project that shows that fashion can be affordable by posting my favorite outfits, DIY sewing projects, and documents my journey at FIDM.

A big trend for this Fall that has been seen all over the runway's is an abundance on rich, jewel tone pieces. With a variety of colors, it is easy to wear them through accessories, bottoms, and even outerwear!

A is for Accessories

I've been getting into the whole idea of incorporating more accessories into my everyday looks lately. I'm beginning to realize that jewelry, bags, and shoes are the things that can take a basic outfit that a hundred other people can wear and make them into an outfit that is unique and personalized to fit your own style. Here are a few accessories I have purchased in the past few weeks that are basic enough to be worn with a variety of outfits, but each exemplifies a part of my personal style.


 Brand new red clutch I found today at a local thrift store. $3
 Basic black purse I bought on clearance at Target for $13. You can buy it here.
Modern edgy ring from Burlington-$2.99
 Feather earrings from Burlington-$3.99
 Statement necklace from Burlington-$5.99
I wore the necklace today with a printed blouse. This purchase was actually inspired by Kelly of The Glamourai, since her jewelry is somewhat similar to this.

Currently, I am working on a few more D.I.Y projects that include a few accessories as well(with tutorials of course!), which I hope to have up soon.
