This time last week, I was sitting in the sweltering heat of Bonnaroo. At first, I wasn’t too sure how the whole weekend was going to go. I’m a little bit of a diva, so the idea of roughing it was not too appealing to me. I am incredibly glad to say that it ended up being one of the coolest weekends of my life! The music was spectacular. My favorite bands that played were definitely a tie between Young The Giant and Red Hot Chili Peppers. They put on such great shows. Along with the music though, there were definitely some fashion stand-outs the whole time I was there. Some outfits were very cute. I loved all of the cute dresses that I saw people wearing! I also really liked how there were so many accessories that were used to glam up an outfit. For example, in one of the pictures above, the heart sunglasses are nice. I thought that bandanas were a really fun touch too, and many people added them to their outfits. Boots were another thing that I frequently saw people wearing throughout the Centeroo. Bonnaroo is a great example of how you can look stylish without needing to create an elaborate outfit. In addition to the cute outfits, there were some absolutely outrageous ones! I also tried to look nice every day that I was there, but under the circumstances of having limited showers and being...

It doesn’t matter if you’re going to be at an outdoor concert, art festival, or if you’re just at an outdoor hangout in general. You’re going to need a cute outfit! With the weather being as hot as it has been lately, dressing to match the weather can be a challenge. It can be hard to find an outfit that is both weather appropriate and cute. Hopefully with these suggestions, you will be able to come up with an idea of what to wear the next time you’re at an outdoor event. Maxi dresses: These are one of my favorite things to wear to something in an outside setting. They are airy and flow in the wind. They also are spectacular when you love dresses like I do. Plus, they won’t stick to you as much as jeans will. Cowboy boots: You don’t have to be going to a country music concert to be able to rock a pair of cowboy boots. They can be worn anywhere! I would suggest wearing shorter ones to an outdoor festival though. You don’t want to wear high boots because they could make your legs sweat, and no one wants that. A pair of short cowboy boots can add just the right rustic touch to an outfit. Vests: I am in love with wearing vests this summer. I think that blue jean vests look the best. They add a vintage touch, and you can accessorize them as much as you want. One thing that always looks neat is...

It’s finally that time again! Exams are over, grades are in, and we can all relax and take a little breather. I am so glad it’s summer because summer is one of my favorite seasons. One of the main reasons I love summer is all of the fun fashion opportunities that it offers! Here are the top five trends that I am loving this summer: 1. Neons: Neon colors can be integrated in different ways. Sometimes they are used just to add a pop of color, like a pocketbook or belt. Other times, a neon dress may be accented with a neutral black or a natural leather. They look great when you are out in the sun. Don’t be afraid to add in a pop of color by wearing neon colored jeans or bright accessories! 2. Button ups: This is a trend I love because it applies to both girls and boys. Button ups make any outfit look sophisticated. You can make an outfit casual by throwing one on over a blouse or t shirt. If you want to make it dressy, all you have to do is wear it with a nice pair of shorts or jeans. They are also light, so they won’t make you sweaty on hot days. 3. Hats: Another trend that is for boys and girls. A hat can really tie an outfit together! I’m currently obsessed with wearing my fedora hats with everything. I also think fedora hats are great on guys because they add a fun touch to an outfit. 4. Baby doll pink/coral lipsticks: Since it’s summer, you are able to have...
