Boyfriend Jeans: Splurge vs. Save

I don't know about you but for spring I have been eyeing some pairs of boyfriend jeans and I fell in love with them. They would look so good with one of J Crew's baseball tees and a navy blazer with some colorful pumps or maybe a cute cap! My favorite pair is picture number one but those are such a big splurge {$466} especially for jeans... so that wont be happening. There is also pair number two and those are from J Crew, they are less but still too much. I sort of like pair number three but I feel like they have a bit to much going on with the distressed denim and the destroyed denim! Although they are a good price! I think I will have to keep looking!

Room Inspiration

Its been a long process getting my room finished because I have been so busy since the school year started. The main parts of my room are done and now I just have to finish it off! One major space I am focusing on right now is my desk and what art work I want to go over it. I have been finding a ton of inspiration on pintrest and tumblr for cute desk ideas check em' out!

{Peonies are a must}

I love the idea of prints and decorative books/candles/perfume bottles on my desk!
Also gotta love the Ashely Brooke mug! {I have a tea obsession}

I like the clean look too!

I know this is a kate spade store not a desk but I love the miss-matchy wall and I am definitely doing this {I already have a sketch drawn up!}

This is basically all of the pictures in one! definitely a chic desk!

Wish List Wednesday!

Since I have been sick lately and spring is just around the corner (sort of) I have started searching for the perfect spring additions to my wardrobe! Since I have stopped growing it is easier to make bigger investments into clothing than in previous years so I am excited to start expanding my collection. As a preppy person I love the spring because it is a chance to bring color pack into my life, fall tones are fun but in the winter I just feel so drab half the time after the Christmas red has faded away. 
So in an effort to find the perfect Winter Formal dress my mom and I headed to the mall and we first stopped at Neiman Marcus. Now the reason we were at the mall is totally irrelevant to the situation but I think anyone can agree that it is pretty much the easiest thing to fall in love with everything you see at Neimans! There is a thing called Cusp which has all of the Neiman designers and products at Neimans on their website for a reduced rate (at least that's what I've been told) so for the past few weeks I have been glued to the site! Here are my favorite finds...

Sick Days

Well I'm sick... In a polar vortex... just slummin' it in my room. I don't know about you guys but when Im sick my day just consists of a jcrew night shirt, chamomile tea, Chapstick, tissues, and Netflix. I can't really muster that much energy because I barley ever get sick so when I do I am beyond exhausted and all I can really is emerse myself in dream worlds like manhattan, Castleburry CN, the Upper East Side, and where ever Holly Golightly lives! If you got all of those references (which most of you did!) My top sick day shows/ movies are...
1. Gossip Girl
2. The Carrie Diaries
3. Breakfast at Tiffanies

{Unless you have a cold}

{You always need a blonde best friend! Shout out to Lauren!}
