Happy Monday Munchies!

Start your day and week off in a super healthy, filling way. breakfast doesn’t need to be bland to be healthy, and i don’t know about you, but keeping cereal in the house is like torture. i WILL snack on it. so, i don’t buy it. i make interesting, healthy alternatives that keep me satisfied.

The first is super easy- plain greek yogurt, a sprinkling of cinnamon, sliced almonds and dried cranberries. mix em together and eat em up! yum!

The second is not for when you’re on the go, but is a yummy treat for you veggie lovers (like me) out there. After de-stemming & veining my kale, i put it in a roasting pan with about 5 halved cherry tomatoes, a tablespoon of olive oil, some salt and some pepper.pop it in the oven at 350 for about 15 minutes (or until you like it). On a fry pan, i  ’fry’ an egg  (no oil, just cooking spray on a non-stick pan) when it is done, serve the egg with your roasted veggies and enjoy!

Hello & Happy Sunday Style! 

Here I am at home wearing my favorite cowboy flare shorts (flare shorts available to purchase here!) and a boy’s tee from american apparel that i cut the collar off. My shoes are gingham Mariels by Jeffrey Campbell and my belt is vintage. my new favorite funny necklace (that i wear everyday now) was a gift and my leopard headscarf was made by me. 

I love my flare shorts so much. they make me feel and look so thin and comfortable in the hottest of summer days! 

have a wonderful long weekend!

Happy Fashion Friday! 

In celebration of the launch of my new collection of circle skirts, i wanted to do a post on how to style your circle skirt throughout the year. this is, by far, my favorite garment and i wear them almost daily. my acid washed denim skirt is my favorite because it really fits into all parts of my design aesthetic.

Spring A cute crop top works wonders with a high waisted skirt. showing a little midriff is a cute way to show some skin in a not-so-scandalous way! i paired that with some sparkly oxfords and a coordinating gold belt! 
Summer Stay cool & take a stroll down the boardwalk in a tube top and wedges paired with your circle skirt. 
Fall Play Ball! I love how casual a denim circle skirt can become when you throw your hair up, pull on a raglan tee, and tie up some converse! 
Winter Brr…bundle up with a tied up sweater or cardigan, a leather jacket, a beanie and some booties! (layer on some thick black tights when the weather gets extra chilly!)

Happy Thrifty Thursday! 

I had to brag about the sweet savings that took place last week. Why pay if you don’t have to? just look what i saved last week while shopping at vistaprint.com! i had purchased a groupon for vista print- for $17 i received $70 worth of goods. with the 30% savings that i got alongside it and vistaprint’s wild offers, i took my total of $126.07 to $25.82 saving me $100.25! woo hoo! (i splurged on shipping, which i never do…but i wanted these products sooner than later). Happy shopping! don’t be afraid to save! 

xoxo, julie!

Todays Tutorial Tuesday comes from one of my best friends (and freshman roommate), Miss Doniella Davy. Donni is an incredible photographer and make up artist that makes up the tripod that is Donni, Katrina & Julie!

In Donni’s words, her “nails started mad chippin yo” so she painted in the chipped areas with another color and painted an additional layer of sparkles. They were originally the light color in the photo. She suggests trying it out with some totally contrasting colors, like sparkly turquoise and matte coral! 

Happy chipped nails Tuesday from DD all the way from Cali!

Happy Monday Munchies! Spruce up your saltines!

Saltines aren’t just for when you’re sick or if you have an upset belly. Saltines can make a super healthy snack, depending on what you put on them. here are two varieties i’ve recently snacked on- and what a fun take on cheese and crackers at your next dinner party! I am showing 2 varieties- avocado & corn salsa and hummus and a halved cherry tomato. both are super delicious and super cute! enjoy!

xoxo, julie!
