NOLA Daze | Feat. Maddie + Zach

Posted in Fashion, Lifestyle

on 01/06/2016

I finally was able to take a real break this week and I always love the idea of playing tourist in my own city for fun. Living in Baton Rouge, we don’t get to go to NOLA as much as I did in high school since it’s not the quickest trip. When I’m home, I make it a point to head into the city. It’s one of my favorite places in the world, and hopefully someday I’ll be able to live there.

Maddie, Zach and I went Uptown to Magazine Street, Oak Street and St. Charles to do a little exploring and picture taking. The weather has been super duper bi-polar this winter, and it was surprisingly actually pretty chilly. I’m one of those people who wouldn’t dare to ruin an outfit with some chunky layers just to keep warm, so of course I had to stay warm in style.

Maddie and I both chose to rock our Hunters (which we LUURRVE) and some jeans. We are super into ripped jeans, especially in this medium wash. I opted for a monochromatic top half featuring a chunky oatmeal colored knit sweater from Madewell (which I borrowed from Maddie #blessed), and my cream quilted puffer vest from J Crew. Maddie is sporting a pale pale blue colored basic tee from Urban and for warmth she added an olive army-inspired jacket and chunky scarf.

I took a few shots of Zach just to show y’all how much he was SLAYING. There are so many things I could say about Zach, but really I’ll just leave it at the fact that he used to wear ugly tennis shoes and jeans… Look at him now. Started from the bottom now he’s here. Zach doesn’t get cold easily so he opted for some short navy shorts with a belt, basic white tee and denim jacket. His urban, yet preppy look wasn’t complete without a Vineyard Vines hat and some Adidas Stan Smiths.

I’ll link all of our outfit details here.

All I want for Christmas is…. | LGIP Christmas List 2015

Posted in Lifestyle

on 12/21/2015

Is it just me or is it every time Christmas rolls around I have the HARDEST time coming up with a list? Throughout the year I am always on Pinterest, Tumblr, Instagram and seeing things that make me go “OMG I WANT!” but then Christmas list making comes and hits me like a brick. I seriously struggled this year, y’all. I think the older I get, the more I realize that I don’t really need anything for Christmas, ya know? Well after some thought, I present to you my Christmas List 2015.

Ray Ban Aviators // J Crew Factory PJ Set // Blanket Scarf // S’well Bottle

// Ray Ban Aviators //

As you all well know- I am sunglass obsessed. Back in July, I broke my favorite pair of Ray Ban Aviators {I talk about this and about my newer pair in this post}. It was such a sad day for me… I had those glasses for four years. They were the first pair I was able to keep up with in the history of EVER. Nevertheless, I miss them dearly and thought I would ask for a new pair of them for Christmas this year.

// J Crew Factory PJ Set //

I’ve recently been on a PJ kick.. Is that even I real thing? I’m not sure but all I know is I’ve been really wanting a PJ set to cozy up in on Sunday mornings when I have nothing to do. Sleeping in a PJ set actually makes me feel like I have my life together somewhat.. lol only me. I plan on monogramming these to add my own flair to them!

// Blanket Scarf //

Blanket scarves are all the rage this season. I’ve seen them on my Instagram feed at least once a day for the past month or two. I love scarves but unfortunately it hasn’t really been cold enough here for me to rock them :( I’m hoping the weather will cool down and I can rock a chunky blanket scarf one day! A girl can only dream….

// S’well Bottle //

Along with being sunglass, PJ and scarf obsessed at the moment, I have always been a fan of water bottles. My favorite are Camelbacks and Tervis Tumblers. I always bring a bottle of water with me to work or to my classes to be sure I’m staying hydrated. Having an adorable water bottle really does make me want to drink water. S’well bottles keep cold drinks cold for 24 hours and hot drinks hot for 12 hours. They’ve got so many patterns and colors, it was so hard to choose.

Well there you have it readers, my 2015 Christmas List. What are y’all asking for this year? Any of the same things that are on my list?

And if you’re still doing some last minute shopping… believe me I feel your pain. Keep this in mind!

Much love y’all. Until next post..

Back to Basics

Posted in Fashion

Even as someone who loves to get dolled up, sometimes I like to throw on a tee and some shorts and call it a day. With this Louisiana weather, things heat up pretty quickly around here. This simple little outfit I put together is compiled from basics that all girls most likely have in their closets. Outfits like these are lifesavers when you’re out of things to wear (I often look at my closet full of clothes and say ‘I have nothing to wear…’).

I paired a simple back tee with my all time favorite pair of distressed high-waisted denim shorts from Articles of Society. Since I was running errands, I added my monogram necklace (simple, but it’s such a statement piece), my Jacks (because obviously…), and my Mini MAC (which is the best cross body bag I’ve ever owned!).

My formula for the perfect simple outfit:

Solid Tee + Denim + Accessories

Chambray Love

Chambray popover {similar} // Textured white shorts {similar} // Jack Rogers // Black faux leather tote {similar} // MK sport tortise watch // stella&dot gold chain-link bracelet // Ray Ban Clubmasters // Monogram necklace

How adorable is this combo?! I’m so obessed with easy outfits for the summer. Just throw on some chinos and a shirt, and I’m good to go. Today I styled my Bananna Republic textured chinos with a chambray popover from Old Navy. Unfortunately both of these items are out of season so I linked something similiar for both! I’m really digging the simplicty of this outfit.

As for accessories, I’m sporting my MK sport watch in tortise (Are y’all seeing a trend here? This is my fave everyday watch! Expect to see it again!), and this gorgeous gold chain bracelet from stella&dot. The piece is so great to stack with a watch and some bangles. It’s so eye catching and I love how simple it is! My 3 inch monogram necklace makes its return as well (another everyday staple of mine! I may have to get a new one soon, considering I’ve worn this baby down!). I’m still carrying my Forver 21 black faux-leather tote because I can fit soo much stuff in it! Today I managed to fit my computer, camera, a book, my agenda and a notebook in this bad boy! Not too shabby for a bargain bag! I’m also wearing my Ray Ban Clubmasters (remember how I told y’all I was a sunglass hoarder. Well here’s exhibit A.), which are the cutest! I can’t get over the vintage vibe they add to the look.

I’m wearing my Jacks as well, no surprise. These are the Hamptons sandals in bone with white whipstitching.

Is there any thing y’all want to see on the blog? Give me your suggestions below in the comments!

Ray Ban Vision

Posted in Fashion

on 07/18/2015

Holy cow, mail day is my favorite thing. When I got home today, I was so overjoyed to see I received these bad boys in the mail! In Maine recently, I broke my Ray Ban Large Aviators with the green lenses and gold frame. I was so devastated. It’s a good thing I’m a sunglass hoarder and brought two pairs with me!

I immediately knew I needed to replace the pair I had broken. My aviators are such a staple in my wardrobe– I never leave the house without them! They provide sun protection and style! I hopped onto eBay and ended up finding a new pair in the box and everything for $70! How crazy is that? I’m super into eBay, so I have some strategies I use to win bids (lol eBay ain’t no joke!) and they helped me win this pair!

Now onto the specs: these are the Ray Ban Large Metal Aviator sunglasses (style number RB3025) with green flash lenses. And let me just say– I’m so so in love. They have matte gold frames, which I’ve never actually seen before, so I thought that was unique. The large aviator style is the perfect size for my face (I wouldn’t say I have a particularly big or small face, but normal size). I’m loving how much glam they add to any look. They are the perfect accessory to top off any summer look. Ugh I’m seriously imagining soo many outfits I could make with these bad boys. They definitely grab attention!

If you’re in the market for a pair of sunglasses, I would 10/10 recommend the Ray Ban Large Aviators. Regardless of what color lenses and/or frame, you’ll end up loving them.

Do you have a pair of Ray Ban sunglasses? If so, what kind?
