Stripes and Floral Accents


Thrifted J Crew cardigan // Old Navy sweater // Elementz stripe shirt // AEO tie dye jeans (from giveaway) // ALDO 'Rinks' floral wedges

I didn't realize how much I needed a vertical stripe shirt until I got one. It goes with everything, and now I don't know how I ever lived without one! Next step: looking for a new vertical stripe skirt. I think stripes might just be my new favorite print of the moment! Also, I've been wanting a pair of bright, printed wedges since way last spring. Specifically, I really loved these wedges and the Steve Madden 'Winonna' wedge. Of course I couldn't resist when these went on sale last fall, but never got a chance to post with them until now. In other news, today was my first day back at school, and unfortunately the homework is piling on already. Looks like I better get started on that AP US history. :(

xoxo, Elly

  5. Oh my gosh! Talk about making me want to dance around out of happiness - YOUR SMILE!!! You are fantastic.

    Seriously. I am in love with these pictures. ANyone who has this much fun with fashion is a star in my book.

    I'm not usually a fan of these floral platforms, but something about this pair is more subtle and beautiful - like a painting. And you style them just perfectly. In love love love w/ the first pic here. Your'e sooo cool!

  11. You cute thing you! Goodness. So much cute I cannot handle. Your smile is contagious--I love that! :D

    A vertical shirt does seem rather handy, now that you mention it... huh, maybe it's about time I got one! Love how you layered your sweater over it. n___n good luck in your AP class! It'll get better. I know how you feel about starting classes... it's always so difficult! The first week, even though it's usually just introduction and syllabus stuff (even in college), is so stressful because it's all new things and you're like HOW WILL I MANAGE MY TIME and yeah. I'm taking a film photography course and have to buy a film camera and have pictures by monday and panic panic yeah. So good luck to the both of us lol!

    Woopsies. Sorry for the ramble, but anyway, I'm following you now because YOU"RE CUTE!

  21. Hi Elly! Sorry I have not been back here sooner. You are such a doll! You seriously have one of the funnest/put-together styles ever, and I always love your outfits. I'm dying over these shoes! They are gorgeous. And the vertical stripes are fab especially because they are a little different than normal stripes (I guess that would be horizontal). Anyway, love.

    Also I totally took APUSH in High School!!! Definitely a lot of work (especially reading) but let me tell you, it's still one of my favorite classes I have ever taken! The amount you learn is soo rewarding, I can still name all the presidents (I made up a song to Hannah Montana "Life's What You Make It." haha)

    One last thing, not to be creepy, but do you live in California? Specifically, Northern? Because I've been looking at these pictures like thiisss looks a lot like where my home is...just curious!

    perfectly priya
