year one | top | skirt | necklace | bracelet | heels

This Friday will mark three years since I started my blog.  I’ll save the sentimental spiels for later on in the week, but I thought it would be fun to look back on a few of my favorite outfits throughout the year and see how my style has evolved.

In the first outfit, I remixed the skirt that started it all.  I was no stranger to prints back then and I’m certainly not today — except now, I would choose a skirt in a more whimsy print (think enlarged florals) and a lace top in a punchier color.  If there’s anything that NYC has taught me, it’s that more is more.

year two | shirt | jeans | bag | flats

During my second year, I was still living in Arizona where short shorts reigned supreme.  These days, my casual look is a bit more refined, but also a lot more laid-back (does that even make sense?).  Today, I would choose a chambray shirt over its silky counterpart and pair it with white skinny jeans.  And those leopard shoes?  Same favorite print in every shape there is, please!

year three | top | pants | necklace | clutch | heels

During year three, I completed my first year of living in NYC, chopped off my hair and dressed with a little more edge.  I still love me a bold cobalt blue, but next time around, I’ll be trying my hand at a structured crop top and slouchy pants.

Oh man, what a difference three years make.  Sometimes it pains me to go back to the beginning and flip through some cringe-worthy looks, but that’s all part of evolving/adapting/experimenting/discovering your personal style.  Thanks for following along!
