Lately, I have had an itch to dress more preppy. I don't know if it's the fact that I am graduating from college in less than 100 days or the idea of getting old. Nonetheless, I love this look because I look pretty and polished.
The quilted sweatshirt gives just enough details for a simple look. I think what sold me the most with this look is the color combination. I saw a girl in my class wearing a similar color pallet and decided that I just had to recreate the look. What color combos do you like to rock? How do you layer your colors and prints?
Be sure to stay connected with me on Instagram and Twitter for daily interaction. I am moving away from posting everyday. I am focus on the quality of my posts and the effectiveness of my work as I intern with Cocoa Fab and DEULX Magazine. I am finding my voice and learning that I am more than a blogger. I am a writer, a stylist, a sister, a budding social media expert, web design lover, and so much more. What areas are you becoming more pretty and polished in?

As I've said before: LOVE that quilted sweater, Jas! I'm surprised you didn't wear a statement necklace or any jewelry with this look. Any particular reason why? Also, congratulations on both of your internships! That's amazing news. I had no idea you were hustlin' hard like that, girl.

Thank you! I didn't wear a necklace because I wanted the outfit to speak for itself. I've starting following a lot of European and Asian blogs and they don't do a lot with jewelry. The clothes make a statement, so I wanted to try that as well.
ReplyDeleteAs far as the internships go, thank you! I had to drop one the day after I posted this for various reasons. I might do a post about that, but it pretty much boiled down to my mental health and poor communication... if you catch my drift. Now in other news, I am still looking for jobs and learning skills to equip me to build my own digital empire. Lol
Your decision to drop an internship was a brave choice, especially in this present culture of "hustling" and "doing the work" no matter what life throws at you. You thought of yourself and well-being first, which I think is important. Re: European & Asian bloggers: true, they do have that minimalist thing down!
DeleteThanks! What's for me is for me, ya know? I wasn't in control of my life and that was an issue for me.
