Old clothes can be just as good as new items. Take for example the skirt in the picture below. But wait! Looks can be deceiving.
It's not actually a skirt, but a dress, which I haven't worn in over a year.
Try using old articles of clothing in new ways.
You never know just what you might come up with. It can change the whole way you look at the clothes in your closet.

Style Tip: Don't overpay for flats/shoes! I actually bought these flats in the Girl's Section at Target for far cheaper than what they would have been in Woman's because they were on clearance and there was a Cartwheel deal. Not only that, they look exactly the same as something you'd buy in Woman's. It's worth it just to check it out.
AHOY! This is the perfect simple, nautical look. It's also a great way to incorporate stripes into your wardrobe. You can't help but feel cute and happy when you wear something like this.

- Nina Pink Pearl Satin Ribbon Necklace - I'm not exactly sure where it's from because I got it from my sister-in-law for Christmas, but it also has a matching bracelet. There's a close up picture of the necklace below.
I paired it with....
- Khaki Skinny Pants - H&M
- Nine West Pink Flats - TJMaxx
Nina Pink/Pearl Satin Ribbon Necklace
Just picture it.... How perfect would this outfit be paired with a pair of aviators in the summer time? Instead, it's being buried under layers upon layers of sweaters, coats, scarves, and boots.
These two are a perfect summer combo, not to say you can't wear them in the winter, but like I said, they would just look so good out in the sunshine with your aviators on. I guess all I can do is dream for now.
The shirt definitely gives the outfit more of a dressed down feel, but at the same time, you're still dressed up. For some reason, it just works, or you might agree with my husband who thinks these two clothing items don't work together at all, and that's ok! You are welcome to your opinion. I can't say I'd normally put these two items together when I'm getting ready in the morning, but you'd be amazed by the number of compliments I got, especially on my skirt.

With Valentine's Day only a mere two weeks away, it's time to start preparing, especially if you're the type of person that tends to be just down right giddy and in love this time of year, here are some great ways to show it off!
I love the combo of black and khaki. There's just something about the look that's super sleek and clean. So, once I finally ordered a pair of leopard flats, I couldn't wait to wear them with khaki and black. Much to my dismay when they arrived, they were too big and will now need to be returned. However, here's the look I was planning on going for. I figured I'd get a picture before I return the flats and buy a new pair.

With the Super Bowl being less than a week away, it's time to choose who you're rooting for. If you're like me and don't usually support one of these teams and don't want to have to go out and buy something of their's but have a party to go to, that's not a problem! Here are some great options to root for either the Seattle Seahawks or the Denver Broncos. And in all honestly, you're probably only really watching the Super Bowl for the commercials and the halftime show anyways;)
Seattle Seahawks
Denver Broncos
Not only is turquoise great to wear with leopard print, but red is even better, especially if you wear it with a tan/black leopard print. Here are some of the best ways to wear leopard print and red. The options are endless!
