Styling March Madness: Round One

Howdy, friends and blog readers (although I hope to count you as a friend if you read my blog). If you didn't already know, I am currently an intern for College Fashionista where I write weekly style articles focusing on accessories. Every Friday you can see the lovely people around my campus, but for the next few weeks they are running a competition on their Facebook page starring those of us usually behind the camera!

Jacket- Forever21

Top- H&M

Jeans- Gap

Heels- H&M

Necklace and Sunglasses- Thrifted

I wore this outfit on the last day of my California trip before changing into more practical airport friendly clothes, but it seemed like a pretty good representation of my style for the contest. Minimal and clean yet up to date with a little girly edge.

So what I would love is a little help from my readers. If you could follow THIS link and like the photo, that counts as a vote! That's all you need to do! Feel free to friend request me if you happen to see my Facebook page, but just one extra vote could put me into the next round. YOU HAVE TO ACT FAST THOUGH BECAUSE THE 1ST ROUND ENDS TOMORROW (March 19) at 11:59 EST. So vote as soon as you see this! haha feel free to share it with you Facebook friends as well! Of course, only vote if you do like my outfit, but hopefully you do if you're following me? I'd like to think so at least. Thanks, friends (yes, I'm assuming we are all friends now).

xoxo, Katie

Thrown Together

Shorts, Vest, & Necklace - Thrifted

Top - Shop Q

Shoes- Urban Outfitters

This is one of those outfits that went like this "oh, I think I want to wear this today...oh and this...oh and this...ok well I guess this all kind of goes together. Let's see what happens" and in the end you're not all that happy with the result, but you're already 10 minutes late so you're stuck. I do wish I'd gotten a picture of the back of this shirt though. It has dolman sleeves and a cute zipper that runs to about the middle of the back. It's simple, but there is still a bit of interest. 

As the week wages on, I've officially registered for my classes for next semester and my (new :p) boyfriend kicked my butt at the gym today. It's both a blessing and a curse to have a certified personal trainer at your disposal...pray for me.

How Would You Wear It?

Ever since I made this post, I've been obsessed with this neon sweater from Dorothy Perkins. I'm not sure if it's the combination of summery florescent green with the chunky winter-y knit or if I'm just obsessed with anything from Dorothy Perkins, but I feel either is a valid excuse. The only problem is that I can't decide how I would style it! 

I've come up with two different options that have very separate feelings about them. Tell me- which would you wear? Or would you wear a completely different combination? What would that be?

Track Pants- Nordstrom

Hair Clip- Forever21

Necklace- Kelly Wearstler

Shoes- Aldo
