Highs and Lows.

First, let me apologize for the shitty lighting in these pictures. I would like to photograph outfits in front of these trees, but the lighting rarely ever goes my way.

So today was a productive day. I got my driver's permit, again, and i did some shopping and filmed a video and I'm now making a blogpost! Usually I would be disappointed by my lack of evening plans but I am not bothered in the slightest!

I put this outfit together last night and really liked it, but when I came home today I second guessed myself. I'm not really sure why. Maybe it was my choice of shoes....Until my next post, Elyse.

The Final Countdown.

Christmas is in four days! Let the countdown begin...It arrived so quickly! I went to Target this morning to pick up the rest (except for my mother and father) of my Christmas gifts. Its been raining all day so I haven't done anything else but I thought I'd show you my boring outfit for shopping this morning. Let me just say this hoodie is so warm! It is my go to thing when I'm cold. Expect a Christmas sweater outfit tomorrow or on Christmas eve. Until my next post, Elyse.

layers.

I don't buy really thick super warm coats because they're expensive and I don't have much use for them because I live in California where winter weather rarely goes below 45 degrees. Nonetheless, I still get really cold. So, I thought I would share my tips for layering to keep warm! Until my next post, Elyse.

  • Fitted Long Sleeve: Perfect to put on underneath a tank top, shortsleeve shirt, or even a sweater for extra warmth. 
  • Flannel: good to wear like a cardigan just thrown over something. Adds a nice pattern pop!
  • Cardigan: The best thing to layer over a shirt and underneath anything. Even another cardigan.
  • Hoodie: I love layering hoodies underneath outerwear to make it more casual.
  • Outerwear: I think I have an obsession with outerwear. But great for warmth and to make an outfit look more Fall/Winter. 
  • Leggings: Great for when its really cold to put underneath a pair of pants.
  • Beanie/Gloves: Good things to throw in your bag for when it gets even colder!


change.

For the past month or even more I've found myself in a style slump. I don't like anything in my closet and I've been having a hard time putting together outfits that I love. So, I've come to the conclusion that I need to change my wardrobe a little bit. I have been trying to have a messy thrown together boho/grungy type of look and I just can't seem to do it. So instead, I'm opting for a more simple style of clothing with interesting silhouettes paired with more daring accessories. I can still keep my personal style but be more put together. Until my next post, Elyse.

FUTURE STYLE HOPES:








purple.

I found this hat while cleaning my room yesterday and i knew that I wanted to wear it today. Today is the total opposite of my last post. It was fairly cool today and completely overcast. I didn't see the sun once today, it was really weird. I hate the sweater I'm wearing. When you first put it on it fits okay nothing spectacular, but as time goes by it just gets boxy and extremely unflattering. So, I want to do a DIY with it to turn it into something I like but I have no idea what to do. Until my next post, Elyse.
