My Style: Vintage Floral



Growing up in Arizona, I was part of the middle school generation who loved everything Hollister.  We carried Hollister bags, we wore Hollister camis, we sprayed on Hollister perfume--you name it, we had to show the seagull emblem.  Having matured and expanded my horizons, I have continued to admire the brand, especially the consistent product quality and the company's ability to update its product line while staying true to its California beach aesthetics.  I couldn't have been happier when the company contacted me to select a few outfits for styling.  This outfit is a dream--the crop top with high-waisted, skinny jeans paired with black ankle boots helps the legs look longer.  The top has a lovely vintage-inspired floral print with a peplum silhouette and crossover back strap detailing. The pants are high-waisted jean leggings, or what many companies shorten to "jeggings," and are a deep black with the signature back pocket Hollister stitching.  To accessorize, I added a wide-brimmed, black fedora, round sunnies, and some of my fave jewelry pieces.  I know school is starting for most students this month. To you, I wish you the best and I'm sorry.  My classes start on the 31st.  Good luck to us all.  Xoxo, Shelly

My Style: Resort Living


H
ave you wondered what to pack for that perfect, casual resort-day outfit--not too dressy, completely comfortable, but nice enough to pop into a cafĂ© for lunch?  A light denim dress is the solution!  This denim dress from adidas NEO Label is relaxed yet classy.  Add a pair of gorgeous embroidered lace up sandals, round sunnies, a straw boater hat, and some pretty jewelry, and you are ready for a great day of sightseeing.  In these photos, I'm enjoying a couple of days in Flagstaff, Arizona.  I have decided to get my Bachelor of Fine Arts (BFA) in Visual Communications from Northern Arizona University (NAU).  NAU was terrific about my transfer units, my academic adviser helped me enroll into my upper division graphic design classes for the fall semester, and I found a lovely apartment.  It has been an amazing week; I started off stressed and not ready for the fall semester and ended with a complete game plan.  Now I just have to start thinking of how to decorate my apartment.  Any suggestions?  I'm thinking colorful, artsy, and bohemian. :) Xoxo, Shelly
