Ah, the button down shirt. Pretty much everyone has at least one in their closet and you can find them at pretty much every, any store. And understandably so. The style is a classic.But while you might wear a button down in the traditional way {buttoned down!}, you can absolutely have fun and remix it. You can even turn a button down into a trendy crop top and even a halter. Don't believe me? I'm showing you how. And it's ridiculously easy.Black printed button down shirt styled as a crop top

My birthday is exactly one month away {woo hoo, Cancers!} and I naturally can't stop thinking about what I know now that I wish I knew then. That includes everything from love to finances and even personal style.My 20s were full of style envy. I worked at fashion magazines so I was naturally envious of the celebs on the pages of the mag and even the coworkers I encountered every single day. They just looked so great and I just...well, I wasn't really sure.But looking back, there are a few things I know for sure and that I'd tell my younger self.White Coastal cat eye glasses, gray v-neck shirt and printed black pants

While I love a good dress, there's just something about denim. I practically live in jeans. Denim is just so...timeless. And appropriate for so many different occasions. But a few years ago I realized I was getting bored and that was mainly because I only wore skinny jeans. Um, I had to switch that up! Fast.Because jeans are so versatile {skinny, high waisted, mom jeans, boyfriend jeans, cut offs, distressed, etc.}, it's only a matter of finding the fits that work for you and then having fun styling them.5 Ways to Wear Jeans: cut off high waist jeans with a silk top and mom jeans with a crop top

After completing the Try It, Wear It, Love It challenge, it became clear to me that I appreciate casual garments with a bit of flare. Comfort is certainly key, but looking cute is also a factor for me.And for a few months I had been on the hunt for a hoodie dress. I'm sooooo not a hoodie girl, but something about a hoodie dress just looked so comfortable. While I saw a few cute pieces online for $50-$60, I wasn't willing to spend that much for trendy gear. Instead, I made a mental note that I was on the hunt for one and my retail prayers were finally answered when I found this hoodie at the Salvation Army.It was a simple neutral color, super soft and there was a ruffled hem.
