Trenches and Knee High Boots For The Win

It's finally getting cold around Atlanta, so I'm posting a quick OOTD to keep everyone happy!

Dear Santa...Here's My Christmas Wishlist

Dear Santa, hope this letter finds you well....it's been a pretty good year for me, so I hope it's also been so for you! I bet you are getting all of the presents ready for the little ones, so I'll make this quick and easy. There's only a few things on my list, but they aren't much, but just enough for me. 

Mickey, Minnie, and a Trampoline

Around her at The Style Selections, we like to have fun!! So when I saw that my friend who helped me with my portfolio had a trampoline in her backyard, I knew that I had to take pictures for a post on it. 

Coat - Topshop Boutique (S/O, similar here) | Crop - Forever 21 (S/O, similar here) | Leggings - Vintage (similar here)  As you can see above, I obviously had tons of laughs during this shoot! I got lots done this day and I can't wait to show you all my final portfolio!  Have a great Christmas break if you're off and if you have exams, may the odds be ever in your favor!

My Christmas Vinted Wishlist

Christmas is right around the corner and I can't believe how fast the year has flown! In the spirit of giving, I thought I'd share with you all my Vinted wishlist! If you don't remember, I talked about the fabulous clothes re-selling app a bit ago on my Tech Tuesdays and now I'm back to share with you all the joys of what I may be buying off of there in the Christmas age! 

For those of who have been following me for a while, you know that I'm obsessed with many things, jumpsuits being at the top of my list. If you didn't know, now you do know! I love them because I can always dress them up or down depending on my mood and they are super easy to travel with! My dream for this Christmas is to get loads of jumpsuits, so I've scoured the Vinted site and app to find my favourites out of the thousands available! I'm linking you to them in my writeup of what my choices are and why, so if you find something and fall in love, GO GET IT! 

The first 5 are all similar, dungarees/overalls what ever you want to call them. The majority of the ones on my list are denim of course, but I've also added some others for variety!

I'm going to explain my choices left to right, so first up is the denim pair on the end! The price drew me to these. Before I tell you how much they are, can I just talk about how great they are? Cute, good condition, classic cut. And best part? They cost $5. $5! No kidding!! You can find them here to verify my statement, but I swear I'm not pulling your leg! The second pair are just a simple pair of light wash denim overalls. They're $12 on Vinted which is alot better than you may find them for at a vintage store! Find them here if you like! My third choice is from Wet Seal and these are actually acid washed denim! I don't own much acid washed denim, but these are great and I can wear them so much once it heats up! They're available here in a size 4 for $18 if you click here! The fourth pair is from Bebe and if you want to try and buy them before me (they're great so I wouldn't blame you), you can find them in a size 8 for $32.50 by clicking here! The last pair is from Wet Seal also and the person is selling these GORGEOUS floral dungarees for $15! Who doesn't love cheap clothes, but also adorable cheap clothes?! You can find them by clicking here! x

The second part of my wishlist is full of colorful jumpsuits that aren't in the overall/dungaree cut. I really enjoy jumpsuits because they are so versatile and the ones below are just that!

Again, left to right, so first up is the beautiful purple one on the end! Okay so you know that fabulous English brand Motel Rocks? Well this is Motel Rocks and gorgeous and $25.50 and satin and UGHH! Can you tell how in love I am? It's a great price and fabulous romper so if you want it, click here and grab it before I do! The second one is from Jantzen and it's more of something that I would wear on vacation than everyday or on a night out. The deep V is so sexy and it's backless and all summer I'm going to be showing off (what I hope will be) my toned back. It's the fabulous price of $6.40 so click here to find more! From the picture above you can tell that you're about to be hit with florals for the next 2! The third romper is from Mimi Chica and is so cute! It's something to wear when it's warmer obviously, or if you're daring, with tights, ankle boots and a sweater in the cooler months! It's very cute and available for only $10, so I'd recommend it!! The fourth pair is another from Motel Rocks that is available for a fabulous price! It only costs $8 and is in a size 8, and is available here! The last one is perfect for the Christmas season! It's already a dressier romper and the peplum detailing will make it  look fab on any body type!! You can find it here for $8.70 (which is a fabulous price!) x

We're almost at the end of my wishlist so I thought I'd end it with a couple classic long jumpsuits! 

The first of the jumpsuits you see above is in this beautiful turquoise fabric that will look beautiful on vacation somewhere tropical! It's simple and pretty and can be found here for $6! For the second one, even though the belt doesn't come with it (insert crying emoji), I really love this jumpsuit and it's cut! It's classic and gorgeous and I can buy my own belt and recreate the look!! You can find it right here for $15! I love elephants, which is why I picked my third jumpsuit! It's got an elephant pattern on the bottom which is really nice and a simple halter top! It's great and has an awesome print so why wouldn't I love it?! If you like it as much as I do, find it here for $15! Just as much as I love jumpsuits is my love for biker jackets and the fourth jumpsuit combines both and gives me so much life! It's not leather but is an awesome jersey fabric! Guess makes amazing clothes and this jumpsuit is no different! It's only $25 which is such a steal! But remember, my paycheck comes in about a week, so you'd better get it here and fast! So for my final jumpsuit, I've brought to your attention another simple spaghetti strap one, and this one comes with a really cool pattern on it! It's only $19 and comes in a size 4, so check it out here! 

Well this is the end of my Vinted Christmas wishlist! You've become witnesses to my jumpsuit obsession so if I start putting a million jumpsuits up on the blog, don't act surprised!! I hope you enjoyed and if you're interested to see what I'm selling, pop on over to my Vinted store here and find it all! x

Parental Advisory FYI

I recently did a photoshoot with my friend so I've got exciting things to share!! I'm finally back with outfit posts! I took a bunch of pictures so I've got enough to balance outfits, videos, and other things for you all until my finals are over! So starting it off is my new favourite jumper that I got a bit ago from Sheinside. It's a fabulous knockoff to the Alexander Wang one that would cost me a pretty penny and I LOVE it!

New (Shoe) Bits: ShoeDazzle "Oren" Knee High Boots

Boots. Boots. Boots. Knee high boots to be more specific! I've made an investment and I'm in love with them! If you've heard of Shoedazzle you know that they are known for their shoes and bags and now I know why! This is first time that I have shopped with them and I am thoroughly impressed! I recently bought a new pair of boots through them, the GX "Oren" boots and oh gosh they are life!

New (Fashion) Bits : My Beautiful Wolfhardt Clutch

Sometimes as a blogger, you have to find new ways to make connections. I recently got in contact with a German company named Wolfhardt and I don't regret my reaching out to them. They were beyond nice to me and plus, they gifted me this GORGEOUS clutch!!! 

InstaOOTD: Fall Shopping

Just a quick InstaOOTD to tie you all over for today!! 

I went shopping with a friend a little bit ago, and I was so happy to find my new favourite (almost) all black F/W staple outfit! Everything in this ensemble is so comfy, so you'll definitely see these often!

Fedora - ASOS, S/O (similar here) | Tee - ASOS, S/O (similar here) | Pants - American Apparel, available here for $98 | Shoes - H&M, S/O (similars here) 

Alexander Wang x H&M: His New Killer Collection

Alexander Wang. H&M. One of the biggest designers in the world. One of the biggest chain stores in the world. Now imagine that the two were working together on a major collaboration that comes out in a month. Oh wait. This is actually happening! 

10 Items Your F/W15 Wardrobe Can't Live Without

It was this time last year when I was doing my F/W Things To Love Series, so I wanted to do a bit of an update, and in case you want to read last year's feature, click here for the entire week-long series! Fall and winter are quickly approaching with the end of the summer sadly, so it's a fabulous idea to go ahead and grab those F/W pieces that will be sure to make your wardrobe rock this season!

Cozy & Comfy in my OnePiece Onesie

During the fall/winter, I think I can get a bit of sympathy for not dressing up all the time. It can get really really cold in Atlanta (nothing compared to in the Northeast, best wishes for this season, you troopers), so I got well prepared this summer for the fall/winter season. I bought myself a OnePiece onesie offline, and OH MY GOSH, it's the most comfortable thing that I've bought in my shopping career! 

It's my 1st Blogiversary!!

On September 26st, 2013, I posted my first blog post on The Style Selections. Safe to say that I've progressed...alot. I remember my first style post like it was yesterday. I dragged my mom to a school football game and forced her to take pictures of what I was wearing. You can find the post here if you dare!! 

The NYFW SS15 Roundup

Oh the joys of college/uni applications!! My life has been more than hectic for the last few weeks, so if you're still around, a big hug from me goes to you for sticking around!! 

Now that I'm back, I'm going to kick off with something EVER FASHION LOVER KNOWS JUST HAPPENED! THE START OF FASHION MONTH!! (Can you tell I'm excited?) Here I'm going to cover some of my favourites from New York Fashion Week, which happened a few weeks ago! I'm also going to list a celeb or two who I think would wear the collection! 

First up, Rebecca Minkoff!

My Labor Day Festival Essentials

Labor Day is the last big day of the summer in America, and this weekend I'm going to be hitting up Imagine Music Festival so I thought I'd write up what's going to be in my bag this weekend!!

Reminiscing at Utah & Omaha Beach

I found some more pictures out of the 1,400+ photos I took while in France, so I thought I'd share, along with posting the outfit I wore that day. 

Everything's All Skorted

When skorts made a comeback this season, the first thing I thought of was the terrible skorts I wear for school. Khaki, kneelenght, forever wrinkled skorts. I was happy to find out that the the skorts that would be taking over the fashion scene this year are nothing like that. They are fun, colorful, printed, and ever changing, which is great for someone like me, who has a different idea on what to wear every day! 

New (Shoe) Bits: Topshop Kapa Boots

I came across these shoes during the Topshop summer sale and I bought them immediately. Like no hesitation whatsoever. They were the last ones in my size, and I did what most rational sale shoppers do. I bought the shoes! 

Topshop Acid Floral Dress

Ahh France I miss you!! I absolutely love it there and I can't wait to go back!! Rouen was so gorgeous and the weather was great,on top of the great time I'd had travelling! I wore this amazing Topshop cutout floral dress, and I love how the cutouts hit and how it hugs my body and how it looks!

End of Summer Accessories Roundup

Summer is nothing without the accessories, and since it's the end of the summer, I've put together a post of accessories that have gotten me through the summer!

Flash Much?

Dim lighting calls for extreme circumstances, and in these photos....a little flash was needed. These were taken RIGHT after I got my Rebel, so I didn't know how to explain the new flash to my friend...With a teensy bit of light editing, I think they turned out alright for a first time!!
