A Nation of Taylors|OOTD

ANationofTaylorsHave you ever been stuck between preppy and sporty? Well why complicate things when you can just mix the two looks-after all, that’s what personal style is all about.

I was in a risky mood (talk about a big risk *chuckle*) when I decided to pair a striped button up from Forever 21 with this navy blue boydcon skirt. Lately, I’ve been crushing on this skirt and I thought that it complimented the shirt, but I couldn’t figure out how I would wear the two items without it looking unflattering. While I was playing around with it I decided to turn it into a “crop” top by rolling the bottom up and tying both sides together and voila! This is a great way to reinvent some of your shirts and it’s super easy! IMG_0069 IMG_0100 IMG_0081 Now for the star of the show *drum roll*!

I think it’s safe to say that a pair of Converse should be a necessity in your wardrobe. Trust me, I’m not a sneaker person at all (have you seen my blog?!), but there’s something about a fresh pair of Chuck’s that bring any outfit to life.

I threw mine on and I instantly fell in love with the look. I loved how the preppy and sporty look just complimented one another. It was fun to step out of my comfort zone and come up with a look that I genuinely enjoyed.

I kept my accessories very minimal because I wanted to focus on the look being very crisp and clean. I love dainty accessories and my crown midi ring from Cassie Garcia has been a favorite of mine! It fits perfectly and the best part? It’s hand made! I can’t seem to stop wearing it lately!
