paisley and stripe
I finally made a visit to my favorite hair salon Paisley & Stripe for a much needed haircut. Alex shaped up my hair and we added a "lob" sort of aspect to my mane, although the 100 degree Kansas heat makes it a little hard to notice. On another note, I'm really sad to see this summer coming to an end. Nevertheless, I'm very excited for the fall, school year, and the rest 2015 has to offer. As summer is closing and I've finished my online class, I'm hustling to reread all the classic Nancy Drew books I didn't read when I was a teen. I've read 45/64 thus far! Ever since I was little I always wanted to be Nancy Drew, and as I reread them I yearn to be her even more. To me, Nancy Drew is truly the ultimate, "It girl." Lets see if I can finish the series on my Starbucks breaks, my cruise to Puerto Rico, and before I head back to uni.
I hope the rest of your summer is filled with lots of smiles & laughs, lemonade, long life talks, and huge iced coffees!

There's something about black and white chevron that just really gets me.
When I saw LeTote had this chevron blazer, I knew I had to have it. Black and white chevron, so simple. Today was a really great day. I went to my favourite salon, Paisley & Stripe, and saw my favourite stylist Alex. I haven't seen Alex since August, so it was fun to catch up and remake my look. I know my hair doesn't look all that different, trust me do I know, but it feels different to me. I wanted a sleeker, smoother, and ultimately healthier look. Of course Alex always knocks my hair out of the park. Going to the hair salon is always one of my favourite things to do, and with only a week left of vacation I'm filling it up with things I love. To make my day even better I got to get coffee with my favourite French teacher from high school and some very good friends. This blazer is so fun and much more versatile than I initially expected though it also looks just like my duvet cover in my dorm. I liked pairing it with a simple band t-shirt rather than a dressy blouse. Gives more of a punk rock feel to me which is always what I'm going for.
I am wearing: Lidia Zig Blazer c/o LeTote, The Hawks & The Found shirt, black jeans from Pac-Sun, shoes from Love Culture, wrap bracelet from Stella & Dot, Black Gold Gear Bracelet c/o LeTote.

Today is my last day in KC, and I feel pretty bittersweet about it. On one hand I have been anxiously waiting for college since my first day of senior year, and on another I am having mixed feelings about leaving. Yesterday I said goodbye to a job I had been at for 3 & 1/2 years, like WHAT? I'm surprised I didn't cry with the amount of goodbyes I said.
I spent my last day running around doing errands and stopped by my favourite salon ever Paisley & Stripe to get a fresh look for school tomorrow. I wanted to try something that I've never done before so I showed Alex a bunch of inspiration pictures, and we decided on a more straightforward long look with one set length, more manageable layers, and why the hell not a middle part option. I had a great time laughing with everyone at P&S and it was pretty sad to give Alex a hug and say goodbye to the salon until Christmas. I was set on wearing all black today (as usual) but since it's 90 degrees I wore a blouse from a thrift shop, skirt from Love Culture, Steve Madden sandals, and I have For Audrey by Chinaglaze on my toes. Most of my clothes are jam packed into two huge boxes it's quite depressing actually. On a good note, I bought a sick pair of Tommy Hilfiger loafers. (Never thought I'd say that) Wish me luck!

Maybe it was because I've been growing my hair out since October or that Alex's schedule is always the opposite of mine, but I was really excited to finally get my haircut today. I've always been one for really short layers, but last October I was told that my hair layers were too short so I made it a goal to not get my hair cut til' summer. So today when I stopped by my favourite salon Paisley & Stripe, I told Alex that we had some major detox to do.
