Hi Stylers –

It appears time is flying and I can’t seem to keep up! It’s 2016 already and this is my first blog of the year. I can hardly call blogging once a month (if lucky) consistent, but my goal is to blog as much as possible, whenever possible – that’s my promise to you.

Yesterday I had the pleasure of attending my sister’s performance of Sweeney Todd in Baldwinsville, NY. And of course by standard, traveling near Syracuse, NY warrants a stop at Destiny USA. It’s been quite a few months for me and I had some leftover Christmas money to blow. So of course, today I’m sharing with you a few of my favorite finds from yesterday’s fashion frisk.

While this look is paired with a few of my forever-owned staples, (like the white crochet hat and black dress) the boots and over sized sweater are a few of my fashion finds from yesterday’s excursion.

Booties – Steve Madden

Fashion Tights – Similar tights at TJ Maxx or HUE.com

Oversized Sweater – Francesca’s

Black Dress – PacSun

Crochet Hat – Burlington Coat Factory

We don’t always get the luxury of 65 degree weather come the end of November, so it was clear I needed to take advantage of today by getting outside and getting a few new blog photos in. (Not to mention I had today off from work which gave me another reason and opportunity to do so!)

We’ll call this fall outfit Blue Fall. Soon I’ll be packing away all of my shorts for the winter (except for the ones I like to pair with tights and socks) so I made it a mission to get one last day with them in!

Happy Fall Stylers! I hope you continue to enjoy this warm weather 🙂

Hi Stylers –

I meant to get this post up here much earlier but it turns out blogging while working a full time job isn’t as easy a feat as one might imagine. But none the less – I am going to try my best to get outfits up here, even if that means sporadic posting. After all… doesn’t the saying go “better late than never”? Here’s an outfit we’ll call The Kiss of Stripes.blogimage1blogimage3 blogimage4 blogimage5 blogimage6

Oversized Jacket – Nordstrom Rack

Graphic Tee – PacSun

Shorts – Urban Outfitters

Necklaces – Express and Forever 21

Concert Style @ Saranac

It’s always hard to say goodbye to a long weekend and hello to the work week. Although there are only four days to make it through, it’s still majorly difficult to wake up in the morning! Especially after such a great weekend seeing Slightly Stoopid, Dirty Heads, and the Expandables at Saranac. Talk about a great way to end out the summer! Saranac is such a great venue because you are able to get nice and close to the band. Although the 91 degree weather made it seem like we were a bunch of sardines packed into a sauna, the concert was worth it.

Here is a look at my concert outfit from the weekend:

If there is one thing I cannot wait for, it’s the warmer weather the residents of Maryland claim we receive throughout the year. As exciting as the white walls of my apartment are, I want to get out to explore and take pictures in some of the great Maryland and DC locations! However, for now, my white walls must remain a clean backdrop for some OOTD picture taking. Today’s OOTD is my regular color palette – black and white of course – with a pop of color from my favorite pair of maroon booties!

I hope you all had a wonderful Valentine’s Day! My V-Day outfit this year was another AMAZING Nordstrom Rack find. Not only on sale, but also 20% off. Thank goodness my boyfriend and I decided to stay in and make dinner this year, because there is no way I would have been able to wear this number in the outside cold. A gorgeous black Topshop romper with colorful birds and silver detailing. It is truly my new favorite article of clothing. Paired with Guess heels.

As you may or may not know, I am officially no longer a resident of the state of New York. I now live in Maryland which has been a big change for me, but I have to say I do enjoy the warmer weather! One of the greatest things about MD is that I have found some stores here that weren’t around Upstate. One of my favorites is the Nordstrom Rack – it is now my go-to store for everything fashion. The maxi skirt I’m sharing in my OOTD post today was just $10! While I am still living on a tight budget, it was clearly a sale I couldn’t pass up. Get to shopping at the Nordstrom Rack online now!

Here was the maxi skirt styled in my outfit from last night:

And this beautiful necklace previously belonged to my boyfriend’s grandmother so I believed it deserved a shot of its own:

Hello Stylers –

So today marks my very last day in Rochester – I am officially a college graduate! This means I can FINALLY get back into my blog, so be on the look out for more posts from me! 🙂 Having to send HALF of my closet home in preparation of the big move tomorrow, I had to get a bit creative in my closet this morning. Today’s look is titled textured layers:

TexturedLayersThe black lace top over the white lace tank creates a fun pattern that looks complex, but is actually quite simple! Complete with a black circle skirt, knee high socks and tassel boots!

Shop the featured items to get a similar look!

Lace Top – Abercrombie and Fitch | Necklace – ModCloth | Skirt – PacSun | Thigh Highs – Target

Complete the look with a colored lace tank of your choice and your favorite pair of boots!

I hope you enjoyed this quick post on Liv Your Style – until tomorrow, stylers!

 

High-Waisted Wonder

Hello my Lovely Stylers!

It has been obnoxiously too long since I have last posted here and my fingers are just itching to talk fashion with you. This post will be short and sweet, but don’t fret – this slow start is just the beginning of getting Liv Your Style back into full stride! I excitingly/scarily only have about a week and a half of college left – forever. I am ready to move on and take new steps in my life, but there is always that emotion that comes with signing off a chapter indefinitely. But, as I plan on what comes next, my fashion focus will flourish again!

Today, I just quickly want to share with you this amazing pair of olive green high-waisted jeans (You know I love my olive green!). Typically, I steer clear of anything and everything high-waisted, but my boyfriend approved of these jeans that typically get the ‘mom-style’ rep, and fashion is all about trying new things and stepping out of your comfort zone! Which turned out to be a great choice because I absolutely. love. the freaking pants! Here they are:

HighWaistedAnd did I mention they were just $12 from American Eagle? The seam down the front and high zippers just make the jeans for me. Shop them online now!

Paired with a basic off-white short sleeved sweater and beanie from Burlington Coat Factory, scarf from Marshalls, brown boots from TJ Maxx!

Until tomorrow, stylers!

My favorite thing about clothing is the versatility. While we usually run to the store when we think we have nothing to wear, what we really should be doing is getting creative. You can make a piece look completely different depending on how you pair and style it. This is one of my day to night transition looks from the other day – keeping the striped black and pink skirt in both looks!

day2nightThe left is an edgy yet work appropriate look. The skirt (Kohls) is worn over a pair of black tights (Nine West) with an acid wash button up (Pac Sun) and black vest (H&M) with black combat boots (TJ Maxx).

In order to dress the look up for a night out I added a pair of knee high socks (Urban Outfitters) and black buttoned heels (Burlington Coat Factory), complete with a graphic crop top (Pac Sun).

Two looks, for two different times of day! So next time you think you’ve run out of things to wear, try switching things up a bit! It’s a great way to test your creativity while keeping your money safely where it should be 😉
