Everyone's talking about it, so here is a style board I put together full of items that can help fulfill your color blocking fantasy:

Happy Birthday, Tony!

Happy 21st to my boyfriend, Tony! It's been long awaited and anticipated but the day has finally come. Another year of birthday celebrations, even though he hates making a big deal out of it! (I can't help it, I love birthdays!)

Target + Calypso = Love!

As you may know, this summer I am very excited to say that I will be interning at Target! Although my location is unknown, I can't wait to get started. So when the news came that Target is getting together with Calypso to create some fabulous designs, I couldn't wait to see the debut.

Target has released 87 images of the upcoming Calypso St. Barth collection. Full of beachy styles and ton's of tie-dye, they will have not only clothes, but shoes, jewelry, and home goods! Oh my! Starting at $1.99 and capping off at $79.99, the collection will be full of fun, affordable prices.

Only in stores for a limited time (May 1st - June 11th), so make sure to head over to Target soon and check out the new line!...I know what I will be spending my first paycheck on! ;) Here's a sneak peek:

Rain, Rain, Maybe Stay?

As in my earlier post this week, I have been on the search for the perfect trench coat. Did I curse East Lansing? Today has been quite the rainy day, and it doesn't look like it's clearing up any time soon! This rain is only making me envy MORE trench coats than I was before! Here are a few of my favorites from Neiman Marcus that I came across:

Top: Burberry, Moncler Bottom: Burberry (both)

Although they are painfully out of budget, they are fun to dream about! It is also nice to pick out styles so I have a better idea what I'm looking for when I'm shopping.

See, the rain isn't so bad now is it? There's a positive to everything, and this I must say, is the cute trench coats that come with the rain!

Happy Birthday, Dad!


Happy Birthday to the most inspiring and creative dad a family could ask for!


For his birthday this year, one of the gifts he received was found by my crafty sister, Jen, on Etsy. (For those of you that don't know, Etsy features handmade goods of all sorts from private sellers. I recommend you to check it out for a all sorts of unique handmade treasures.)


It's the perfect gift for the Michigander that just seems to have everything! Found on Crafterall's store page, the store features a variety of layered papercut pieces. With every piece handmade, you are guaranteed to get a gift that is truly one of a kind. On my Dad's gift, we had a circle mark the city our cottage is located. Kudos to Crafterall for such a great piece of art, and a gift that many will treasure.


Love you, Dad. Enjoy your day at work, and celebrate another great year! We are a truly lucky family!

London Fashion Week: Burberry Prorsum Runway



Although Fashion Week has come and gone, the Burberry Prorsum runway is still on my mind! I loved all of the colors, styles, and designs that they captured with the Pre-Fall looks. One of my favorite aspects are the shoes that are featured in the top-right. They are a great look for fall, and before the season starts I will be on the lookout for shoe like it!

P.S. I've been searching for the perfect trench coat. Any suggestions?
