New Bohemia

/ Forever 21 dress / J.Crew sandals / Cotton On purse / Michael Kors watch / David Yurman + Syracuse University class ring  / 

In thinking of describing my sense of style, bohemian is not a word that I typically use, though one I wish I could pull it off better.  I had been eyeing this Free People dress for a while, but with the higher price tag, and a bit unsure of how to style it, I resisted. Luckily though, on a quick trip to Forever 21 with some girlfriends a few days ago, I spotted this look alike and instantly snatched it up. It is surprisingly wearable, in a fresh length to my wardrobe and I feel like it makes me even walk with the sort of sway that I associate with bohemian pieces and gauzy fabrics. 

Style by City : Austin

While most of your weekends are just ending, in a way, mine is just starting. A couple of my friends from college are taking a cross country road trip and I am heading up to Austin to meet them in our capital city for their first time in Texas. It's always interesting to me how each Texas city has it's own personal style. When it comes to Austin, I always think of it as the funky boho younger sister of the Texas bunch. Cowboy boots, turquoise and suede are what comes to mind for this city which is sort of a shift away from my usual style which makes quick trips to Austin so fun. 

Hope everyone had a good weekend. I'm looking forward to good conversation, gorgeous hills, and great live music.
