Mid-Low Maxi & Shopping Your Own Closet

Mid-Low Maxi & Shopping Your Own Closet

This dress is one that I have had in my closet for as long as I can remember but barley pull it out! I have no idea why I don’t either. It’s not like I don’t like it or it doesn’t fit right.

How to Create a Crop Top

How to Create a Crop Top

I like to call this look ‘Taylor Swift’. Every time I wear high-waisted shorts I feel instantly like Taylor, since that’s pretty much all you catch her wearing and she pulls off the look flawlessly. I paired these shorts with a simple crop that has ties at the bottom, making it a great choice for beach or pool days. If your shirt doesn’t have the handy ties like mine, you can still achieve the look but opting for a larger shirt …
