taylor.

ta da! i present to you my dear friend taylor, who serves as constant inspiration to me. her style exudes  creativity, nonchalance, and a healthy dose of americana. the way she pairs comfortable pieces like wrap dresses and destroyed jeans with loopy, colorful scarves and unique footwear is wonderful. even at her comfiest, i've never seen her in anything i would consider boring. more than once i've looked at my closet in desperation and channeled her energy enough to say to myself, 'just do what feel right'.

oh and how much does this girl look like jessica stam?? i mean, freelz!

How would I describe my personal style?
My mom used to say that she wouldn't wear anything that she couldn't climb a tree in. I feel myself headed that way. I try to get my style from things like color, texture and solid dependable pieces. There's no point in an outfit if you can't have fun in it! That way it'll also be special when you put on a great pair of heels.

Whose style do I admire the most?
It's easy to dress well when you have money, so I admire people who put their own twist on what they have. Bright socks, hand-made earrings and scarves.

Where do I shop?
Vintage and second hand are staples in everyone's life right now, including my own. I get all my earrings from antique stores or on Etsy, and the rest comes from little places all around. Sometimes I reserve shopping especially for when I know I have a trip coming up because that way clothes have a story behind them. I always steal at least one sweater from my mom's closet when I'm home, too.


What is the most embarrassing thing I've done the name of style? 

 Watch rings. Hands down. I thought they were the best thing in the world. So practical! So chic! There's one in every school picture of mine between 2nd and 6th grade, and I don't really have an excuse for myself.

xo m'dear!
