My Summer Staples!

Hello Loves, 

Memorial Day weekend treated me well. I recently purchased some new items to add to my wardrobe that I'm just obsessed with. 

First stop, Target. 
One of my favorite things to look forward too in summer are the target sandals! 
Oh mi Oh my, they are the greatest. 
I purchased these two pairs of sandals 
The first pair is by Mossimo Supply Co. and have been seen on the popular page on Pinterest. 
I love how simple these sandals are. They go with everything and are quite comfortable.
The second pair is by Sam & Libby. I how a HUGE love for the Sam & Libby sandals. Last summer I purchased 3 pairs from their collection. 
I have been on the search for classic strappy brown sandals. Everytime I searched for a pair they always had some sort of design or pattern. 
Then I finally found this pair at Target and I fell in love. These sandals are SO COMFORTABLE and I am very excited to wear them this summer. 




I finally purchased new bathing suits. For some odd reason, I rarely ever buy new bathing suits... I'm not sure why. But I always stick to my 3 favorite bathing suits from Target. 

The first bathing suit on the left is from the Candies Collection at Kohl's.
I love the fringe & beading design on this suit and I especially love the periwinkle color.

The second bathing suit on the right is from Victoria Secret. This is my FIRST bathing suit from VS!! I use to think it was a bit ridiculous to spend $30 on a swimsuit top. But I saw this top on the mannequin and fell in love. I now realize why the VS suits are so expensive because the material is extremely soft and the suit fits perfectly.

Last but not least....Free People. 
I absolutely LOVE Free People. 
Although Free People is quite expensive, I love to search the sale section and I always seem to find something beautiful.

The item on the far left I scored at Nordstrom Rack. I had been eying this tunic for a few weeks now and it went down in price and I knew I had to get it. 
I love the elegant and effortless this tunic is. The gold detailing makes it dressy and girly. I am so excited to wear this tunic on a beautiful summer day. 
Here is a link to Free People Tunics since I could not find this exact one online. 

The item in the middle was a random find. I have been looking for a bralette with a intricate design. This bralette was the winner. This item also has nice gold detailing. I know I will be sporting this under different sheer tanks and tops this summer.

Last but not least this is my newest favorite top from Free People. The top has been on my Wishlist for about a month now. Since this top was pretty expensive I had to wait till I started my summer job to buy it. 

First off this top has my college colors on it, red and blue, which I love. Secondly, I have been obsessing over peasant tops. I love how delicate and elegant they look. They are also very easy to style with maxi skirts and high waisted shorts. All in all I'm in love with this top.

Wow. Today's post was long. I hope you all enjoyed, be sure to check back on Thursday for a new post! 
Let me know in the comments below if you would like to see an OOTD with some of these items. 

With Love,

Update + Memorial Weekend OOTD!

Hello Loves,

SUMMER HAS OFFICALLY STARTED and I am now a HIGH SCHOOL GRADUATE. Wow. 

Growing Up and Change all in ONE. 

I will be posting all of my Graduation Weekend Outfits in another post coming this week, along with a video on my YouTube channel. 

Now that the stress of graduating and high school is over. I only have one thing on my mind and that is to have one memorable summer. 

To start off summer right, why not post an OOTD, because who doesn't love an OOTD. 

Yesterday, I had a fun filled day with my best friend, aka my mother. 

We started off the morning by heading to IKEA to start preparing for my journey to college. 

Here is a funny picture of me holding hangers because I have a shopping problem and always need more hangers hehe. 

Then after we shopped till we dropped, we dilly dallied around Downtown Atlanta and headed home.

Later yesterday evening my mother and I saw The Amazing Spider Man 2, which was amazing. Wow. A little scary and a sad ending. But on the bright side I love Andrew Garfield and Emma Stone... So Much. 

Here is my Red/White/Blue OOTD in honor of Memorial Day Weekend and seeing Spidey 2. 

Kimono// Forever 21
Distressed Skinnies// Forever 21
Brown Sandals// Sam&Libby Target 
Light Washed Top// Brandy Melville 

Alrighty loves, that's all for today. Check back on Tuesday for more. 

Sincerely, 
       Katelynn
