preppy spring outfit idea
The other day, I was wandering around Culver's Arts District and was immediately drawn to this funky little parking lot. There's a ton of random pockets like this around warehouses and office buildings, giving the whole area a unique feel. Anyway, I figured a backdrop of blooms would be an adequate replacement to an actual floral print dress. You know I love my florals, but I've decided to lay off the prints for a while and spare you a hackneyed "florals for spring" post.

To replace my trite spring staples, I've been gravitating towards simple t-shirt dresses. If my extensive collection of printed pants are like pajama bottoms, then these dresses are the hottest nightgowns of the season. Also, I highly suggest saving yourself the blisters from some chic pair of flats and slipping on worn out sneaks instead. (Sneakers also make it easier to run away from the owners of said funky-little-parking-lot when they discover your impromptu photoshoot.)

There you have it. Groundbreaking spring style secrets :) I'm here all season, people.*

I normally avoid shoulder pads at all costs, but there was something about this blazer that convinced me to take a risk and buy it. I love how preppy it is, so I decided to go for a schoolboy look and paired it with my favorite gingham shirt. Something tells me that if I lived on the east coast I would wear outfits like this all the time.

Anyway, this weekend went by way too quickly. I'm just looking forward to Halloween and being done with midterms! Naturally, I have no idea what I'm wearing for Halloween and am hoping I can pull together some sort of costume at the last minute. Right now my costume choices include: girl wearing sequined dress or the (way overdone) "Gatsby-inspired" look. HELP.
