hassle-free holiday hair

thrifted blouse, loft earrings

The quickest, easiest version of "holiday hair" -- ever.

(You can purchase the rhinestone chain from the last photo, but I just took mine off an old necklace I didn't wear anymore.)

instinct of color

Obsessed with this short film from OPI. The song featured in it -- "Down the Road" by the French DJs C2C -- has also been on repeat.

colin stuart pumps/"how music works" by david byrne/forever 21 bag

I don't know if it's me trying to fill the void left by the complete lack of snow here in Nebraska, but I can't get enough of anything in a sleek in a shade of white. This white leather moto jacket is making me seriously question the important of groceries and rent.

there is a winery in nebraska

photo cr.: lindsay zautke & paige stark

Old Navy polka dot tank, high-waisted Gap shorts, Target boots, vintage bag.

Spent a completely magical weekend at a local winery + lakefront campsite with all of my favorite females. From stumbling upon a pair of llamas to consuming more smores than I'll ever care to admit, I have to say it'll be hard to top this trip.

Barbara Palvin is stunning in one of the best beauty editorials I've seen in a while. The over-the-top accessorizing is perfectly complemented by a range of simple, easy-to-obtain makeup looks.

I'd wear looks #1 and #6 exactly as they are. Perfect prints and inspiring color choices. I'll be looking to this collection frequently as I seek to really narrow and define my sense of style - hopefully an achievable goal!

breton box cut

express top, forever 21 shorts, steve madden wedges

I wore this outfit out on a date with a super good-looking guy and the zipper on my shorts broke while I was in the bathroom. Spent the rest of the evening nervously shuffling around with my left thigh way more exposed than I intended.
