H&M DRESS (in stores, similar here) // H&M JEANS // H&M FEDORA // (STEVE MADDEN SHOES
Way back when (during a very questionable phase in the 23-year evolution of my style) I used to always wear dresses over my jeans. This was about 7th grade and I remember my mom and sister begging me not to wear certain outfits out of the house. Thinking back- yeah they were pretty horrible (at the time, Gwen Stefani and her posse of Harajuku Girls were my fashion ICONS if you want a visual).
That being said, 7th grade sticks out in my mind as the year that I knew I loved fashion – it’s when I fell in love with looking at outfits online, putting looks together, and dressing a bit different than everyone else in my town (at a time where Abercrombie & Fitch was the ONLY acceptable option). When people ask me to describe my personal style, it’s a hard question for me to answer. This is why: Ever since I can remember, I just wear what I feel like wearing in that moment – maybe one day I’m a awkward 7th grader dressed up like Gwen Stefani, and the next I’m rocking a chic (and affordable!) fedora and lace eyelet dress from H&M. You never really know!
Here I am, years later, putting a dress over jeans again (& sharing it with thousands of you online). Really coming full circle here. This morning while I was looking through entries for the 2016 Bloglovin x H&M Awards, it dawned on me that I never posted this look…and, it just so happens to be head-to-toe H&M!
What do you guys think of this look? No jean-or jeans?! Comment below to let me know what you think!
Thank you H&M, BlogLovin, and Leandra of Man Repeller for this amazing opportunity. To all my fellow blogger-friends that entered, good luck! xo
