Simplicity Speaks

Crop Tee DIY | Skort Zara | Heels Jessica Simpson | Necklace H&M

When it comes to fashion, I have always been of the mindset that simple truly is better. You don't always have to have bright pops of color and crazy cutouts to make a statement. Sometimes, simplicity can have the biggest impact. To keep from erring on the side of boring, however, I chose my asymmetrical Zara skirt, a chunky stud necklace, and strappy sandals. These items add interest to the outfit without going overboard. Last, but not least, I threw on a red lip: a simple, yet daring touch.

Stay simplistic,

Samantha

Festival Daze | Welcome to the Dark Side

Bralette Forever21 | Skirt H&M | Shawl Vintage | Boots Urban Outfitters | Crown DIY

For my second festival themed look, I opted for something a little darker. Playing with textures like lace, velvet, and tulle helps to keep the outfit interesting instead of falling flat like a traditional black ensemble. Inspired by the more bohemian looks worn at festivals like Coachella and The Governor's Ball, I incorporated a flower crown and a little fringe to my normally edgy style. I had so much fun with this shoot, and I'm really happy with the way it turned out (especially the balloons)! Let me know what you think!

Stay on the Dark Side,

Just thought I'd share a quick outfit of the day with you guys featuring my new sneakers and hat! I am absolutely loving the way white converse can add a sporty edge to any outfit. Today was blazing hot, so I used a floppy fedora to shield my face from the sun. Let me know what you think!

Stay Beautiful,
