Trends Worth Trying

If I had to describe my style, I would definitely say that I lean more towards the "trendy" side. This hasn't always been true for me. Personal style is something that I think is always evolving and I know mine has. As I got older, I learned more about myself and my style began to make more sense and compliment me better. (Not to say I always get it right though ;)) One thing that I have learned over time is that you should try to balance classic looks with trends-if trendy is the route you are going. If you can manage to do this your "look" will be on-point annnddd you wont have to start from scratch each season!

Top 3 Looks Worth Trying:

1. Chevron

(photo is from www.shoptherage.com and the photo credit goes to them)

When I first saw this pattern I thought it was decent but not something that I was absolutely crazy about-but it must have grown on me because I decided to try on a black and white Chevron top at TJMAXX and I LOVED it. Something about it seemed so sophisticated and still really fun. I probably wouldn't have spent a ton on this look, but for $12 I don't see how it could really be a mistake-

 

 

 

2. Neon

(I do not have a photo credit for this one, it was on Pinterest without one)

 

When you saw the word neon you might have thought "too young for me" - and I would agree that an outfit entirely neon colored would be young and probably tacky...BUT neon with black is still sophisticated and fun. I love the combo and this look is perfect for summer :) Forever 21 has some cute, bright tops. Here is a link to one I found:

3. Arm Candy

This look seems costly-but can really be done with jewelry you already have. I recently attempted this look with a few bangles and bracelets I already have and a cute watch I got from DryGoods for only $16. Here is the link to the watch that I have :) http://www.drygoodsusa.com/Product.aspx?ID=36567&Sale=n&pg=2

 

 

My Attempt at this Look:

 

 

 

These three looks are enough to spice up anyone's wardrobe for the Spring/Summer! Try them out and let me know what you think!

 

 

 

 

**On another note**

I haven't posted anything about fitness in awhile-but I am currently taking part in a 30 Day Squat Challenge. It is whopping my butt-literally.

I thought I would share the schedule with you guys.
