Styled: Coachella pt. 3
As you’re reading this I’m likely sitting uncomfortably, next to a stranger, in window seat 7A, jetting across the country and soon to cross over to the land of Waffle Houses and In-N-Out Burgers, amongst other great American legends.
Day three of Coachella is all about my favourite lace shorts from Zara. I have this thing for lace that means whenever it’s present in the room I gravitate towards it, resulting in multiple lace skirts, and dresses. So sad, I know.

Watercolour Mini
With the weather playing tricks on us, it’s hard to know when your next summer-like day will be, so it’s best to take advantage of the sunshine, even if some people continue to sport wool and fur-linen hooded jackets. On a particularly hot day, I paired a new Forever 21 by Rory Beca pink watercolour mini with a tied Joe Fresh blouse. It was all very silky and very simple for a day that seemed like July.

Manicure Monday: White Out
I went through a white nail phase when I was younger, after I first got this nail colour (Powder Puff by CoverGirl) from my grandma. It seemed to be the perfect colour for summer especially with a tan. I feel like white is slowly making it’s comeback. Typically seen as tacky, I think this somewhat off-white is the one to shine. With spring I think I’ll be adding orange tips or half orange, half-white, as inspired by my bedspread and these two new bracelets from Forever 21.
And look, even Audrey of Frassy is doing it. Though I think the white white is a little too “I got bored in math class and painted my nails with Wite-Out,” there’s something so mod about this shade, don’t you think?
little-lbd and a jean jacket
Here’s segment two of our first Barbie Dream House outfit photos. I found a theme within these two outfit post segments: cheap bangles and cheap sandals. SOMETIMES (rarely) we try to be frugal.
Jean Jacket: Levi’s, Dress: Wilfred (Aritzia), Sandals: Wal-Mart, Sunglasses: Kensington
I’ve started to accumulate a lot of inexpensive jewelry, mostly from F21 (above bangles) and H&M. The only issue with cheap silver jewelry is that it turns copper fast, but if you don’t want your finger to be dyed, paint clear nail polish on the inside band of the ring. These black, bandage, gladiator-inspired sandals are from Wal-Mart! Great buy, only $17, picked them up last week. Go now before they are sold out, they also come in dark tan.
blogger muse
These day bloggers are one hot commodity. Not only are they stealing the seats of celebrities and editors during fashion week, but now they (or we) are inspiring fashion lines!
The newest collaboration is Danny Roberts, blogging artist of Igor+André, for Forever 21.

Who knows, maybe if we actually keep this up and stop slacking someone will make us our own top! Sharpie on cotton accepted.
harriet the spy
every good spy needs a gorgeous trench! structured, but oh so casual…and although Harriet may have had it a little wrong with her tent-sized yellow rain coat, we appreciate her effort. we think these trenches are much more appropriate for sneaking around town, whether you’re strolling in the rain, shopping on a spring day, or exploring the city with a venti americano in hand!
though we would love to have an original Burberry, our student (soon to be graduates) budget is limiting, so instead i think these alternatives are appropriate substitutes. i’m thinking the navy Club Monaco trench, although i may have to stick to the classic look and go beige.

keep this in mind when buying your trench: “a good spy never gets caught!”
oh hello!
