Andie: Green Mid Maxi




Today I'm excited to share one of my new favorite dresses for the summer time! I found this dress online at Forever21 during the winter and I'm finally getting to wear it. The color is gorgeous and goes great with a tan. It was also under 30 dollars which is a great deal!

Here are some other dresses I'm loving from Forever21


My big sun hat is from Boohoo.com which is a great site to buy inexpensive fashion items on. This hat was only $15 dollars! 

Hope you all have a great rest of the week!

Emma: LBD



It's a proven fact that sunshine correlates with happiness. And with happiness comes confidence, which is exactly what I feel in this dress and pair of killer heels!




This dress is a total staple piece. It's so simple, yet elegant and classy. There are so many ways it can be worn, which is an important factor in deciding on what to stock your closet with - I know that this dress will be worn time and time again!



I went for a fun topknot look today. I absolutely love how it turned out and will definitely be wearing this hairstyle again! It gives the entire look a chic edge.


I am obsessed with these cat eye Miu Miu sunnies! They are somewhat funky, but are surprisingly versatile!



I wore my two go-to rings for a little touch of jewelry!

Emma: Junior Prom 2016


My Junior Prom was amazing! In this post I'll be sharing some photos and tips for looking and feeling your best at the dance and afterparty. 



First things first: I need to rave about this dress. I searched everywhere but could not find any dresses that I loved, so I took a risk and used Rent the Runway. This dress is a Marchesa Notte, and retails for more than $1000... needless to say, I felt so glamorous.






My corsage coordinated with my dress perfectly! The bag I carried is a Kate Spade that I borrowed from a friend. It looked so classic, and was a beautiful and simple addition to the detail of the look.





So many pretty dresses! Everybody looked so beautiful.



My main tips to a great prom night:

1. Don't settle on a dress that you aren't completely in love with! Find something that you know you'll feel beautiful in. If you are feeling iffy, keep looking. It'll be worth it!
2. Wear heels that aren't insanely uncomfortable. This tip speaks for itself... You won't be able to enjoy the dance if your feet are killing you.
3. Hairspray. Is. Key... Really.
4. Use a setting spray for your makeup. The last thing you'll want is for your gorgeous makeup look to be gone before the night is over!
5. Carry your lipstick and/or gloss in your purse for reapplication.
6. Don't overdo it with your makeup! Make sure your face can breathe.
7. Drink plenty of water beforehand. It's not fun to have to pee constantly, but you will be moving around a lot and it's important to stay hydrated throughout the night.
8. Do NOT pull an all-nighter. Even if you are staying the night at the after-party and think you just have to stay up, sleep still counts on prom night and you will feel awful for the next few days. Trust me... I am speaking from experience.
9. Be safe at the after-party! This is in all regards. You know your limits! In addition to this, it's smart to have a buddy to check up with every hour or so.
10. Have FUN! You only have a few chances in your life to go to a dance like this, so live the night to the fullest!



Emma: Printed Purple



Spring prints! I'm obsessed. 



I found this top online from Nordstrom Rack. I don't always have great luck online with Nordies, but I knew I had to give this adorable top a try. I love it! 


The print is bold, but the colors are cool and subtle--it's the perfect airy spring top. Also, the back is super fun!


I of course had to carry my light purple Rebecca Minkoff Mini MAC! I've been searching for this bag in another color, but I'm just not sure which color yet... If it were completely up to me, I'd buy alllllll the colors - this bag is worth it!



These are currently my favorite sandals. They're a mix between a gold and silver tone, which makes them so versatile.
