First Look: Karlie Kloss x Warby Parker Released Today



          Warby Parker is well known for their thick framed glasses, but now they're offering a delicate collection of sunglasses with help from supermodel, Karlie Kloss. A driven, businesswoman herself, Kloss collaborated with the brand to create three styles for $145 each. Proceeds will benefit Edible Schoolyard NYC, an organization close to Kloss that provides kitchens and gardens to low-income public schools so students can develop healthy and sustainable habits. And as always, for every pair sold, Warby Parker will donate a pair of glasses to someone in need.

          Not only can you buy these sunglasses with a clear conscience, but they're some of the most stylish pairs I've seen in a while. I was just out shopping for sunglasses today and noticed how prominent thick, bulky styles are. But I've recently grown to prefer thinner, aviator styles, so I like that Kloss' are a trendier take on classic aviators. Each pair has a unique lens shape -- Clara is round, Marple is angular and Julia is the standard aviator. The lenses also come in colors like indigo, sepia, copper, slate and violet clover.

Peruse the exclusive product images below and shop the collection online or in stores.
Check out all of their women's sunglasses here.

The Look For Less: Sienna Miller

The starlet walking the streets of NYC.

   One of my all-time favorite stylish stars is Sienna Miller. I love her as an actress and I love her as a fashionista. She has a bold style that she really takes ownership of. She makes casual bohemian look classy and she makes any gown look glamorous.  The best part about her style is her confidence. Every red-carpet pose dons a big grin and she's never one to be scared of expressing her style. Here is how to get her cool, laid-back weekend look...

Old Navy-boyfriend sweater-$24.50
Doki Geki-ruched sleeve boyfriend blazer-$48
American Eagle-crystal cord-$15.50
Forever 21-soft acid washed jean-$24.80
Wet Seal-stud bottom satchel-$24.50
Urban Outfitters-chelsea crew perforated oxford-$58

Total Outfit Cost: $195.30
Sienna's Loewe Bag: $1,650.37

10 Items or Less


Even if you don't have the chance to go shopping often, you can still find new ways to wear your clothes without spending a dime!

 Here's your challenge:
Go to your closet and close your eyes. Pick out a few random pieces and then open your eyes. You now have your first items to work off of. Continue to pick clothes you think would go well with the first ones until you have 10 pieces total. Now make as many outfits as possible using these and any other accessories or shoes!

 I was amazed by how many outfits I was able to make and how different each look was. I went for a simple color palette with a few touches of pink and blue. This worked well for my first time doing this, but next time I want to add some more interesting colors and patterns for more playful and bright looks.

These are the clothes I picked out...


  1. black cardigan-Banana Republic
  2. little black dress-Rue 21
  3. striped dress-Old Navy
  4. striped button-down-American Eagle
  5. striped jacket-thrift store find
  6. gray sweater-Aeropostale
  7. white shirt-Forever 21
  8. v-neck sweater-Aeropostale
  9. gray skinny jeans-PacSun
  10. blue shrug-Old Navy

 ...and I was able to make nine outfits out of them! I probably could've kept going if I hadn't needed to go to bed. It was like playing dress-up and I couldn't stop thinking of ways to wear the clothes.


Outfit #1-Date Night





Outfit #2-Party Time





Outfit #3-Goofing Off in Study Hall





Outfit #4-Sightseeing





Outfit #5-Shopping Day





Outfit #6-Playing in the Snow





Outfit #7-Miss Daisy





Outfit #8-Workin' for the Money





Outfit #9-Rock Concert

Trend On a Budget: Florals and Wayfarers

One really cute trend I want to try before the summer's over is a floral dress with bright wayfarers. It's a great way to add color to your outfit, and you can do it with full on color like Demi Lavato or subtly with just a splash of color like Ashley Tisdale. The best way to wear this trend is to toughen it up with a leather jacket or bag and black boots. There are some beautiful designer dresses out there, but I looked for the cheaper finds. Here are a few looks that won't break the bank.

belted floral dress-Charlotte Russe-$26
neon wayfarer sunglasses-Wet Seal-$7.50
teal wayfarer sunglasses-Oak-$18
floral pocket tank dress-Urban Outfitters-$29.99
painted floral strapless dress-Forever 21-$19.80
wayfarer sunglasses-Target-$12.99

When I Was Wearing Jelly Shoes

I was browsing around on topshop.com and found these cute sunglasses that reminded me so much of the ones I wore when I was little. Of course the price of $24 is a bit steeper than the $2 Walmart pair of my childhood. I love that some 90's styles are coming back...let's just hope they don't go too far (nobody wants to walk around in floral sack dresses and mom-jeans!) This fall's "it" nail color is said to be deep navy blue, a color I remember wearing in first grade all the time. There's definitely something nostalgic about seeing trends you remember from your childhood coming back on the runway. The best part are the memories of being so innocent and the things you would think of to keep yourself busy...all while wearing clothes you never gave a second thought to until now.

Here Come's the Sun...Didle-Dido...

...Sun, sun, sun, here it comes!
Today was actually sunny...go figure, the day that I was in the mall most of the day! I bought some stuff at Victoria's Secret, then I tried to stretch out my money for as long as I could. My friend and I went to Charlotte Russe where they had a bucket of sunglasses for 50 cents each. Seeing that they were so cheap I went with big, funky ones! We tried on practically every pair they had!



My friend got me this scarf when she went to Scotland.
