Birthday Girl!

Last week was my birthday, so I came up with a couple really fun looks for the festivities. This first look started with these amazing glitter biker shorts from Topshop. It's one of my favorite trends right now, so adding glitter makes them perfect for a party or a night out! Since the shorts are kind of sporty, I wanted to contrast them with this frilly, feminine top. Mine is vintage, but get a similar one here. I wore these cute strappy heels to add a 90s edge. These are also vintage, but Urban Outfitters has a great alternative. These 90s beaded bracelets are so nostalgic, I'm happy to be seeing them around again. I made these ones myself, but if you're not feeling up to it then Urban has these adorable ones. To add some more sparkle I topped this outfit with these pretty gold hoop earrings from Cali Tiger. They're really simple which I love. For my second look, I only got a couple pics of it because we were out to dinner. I wore this stunning dress from Topshop that's a beautiful shiny jacquard fabric. I love the drawstring detail in the front! I had on the same vintage shoes, and my go-to vintage beaded bag. Get a similar bag here. So those are my two birthday looks! Scroll down for my makeup look! Which outfit is your favorite?

For my makeup look, I tried a brand new makeup line from Urban Outfitters called Ohii. I love the branding so that made me want to give it a go. I am in love with the eyeshadow pallet I got, called the Magic Hour palette. The color I used is a beautiful pastel fairy green. It's very sheer and sparkly. And as always, I used lots of Glossier. I used Lash Slick mascara, Stretch Concealer, and Boy Brow.

Take the Plunge

As I'm sure you've noticed by now, I'm obsessed with the designer Jacquemus. His designs are draped beautifully and so effortless chic. One of my favorite pieces from his La Bomba collection is this amazing ruched shirt dress. Luckily, this awesome new brand called Choosy has made a great lookalike for under $60! It fits like a dream and I love the super low-cut neckline (if you're brave enough!). Since I'm so tall, this "shirt dress" is just a shirt on me so I put my favorite biker shorts from Urban Outfitters underneath. I kept the styling pretty simple. These strappy black heels add class and look expensive. These ones are & Other Stories from a couple seasons ago, but here's a similar pair. I wore my go-to initial pendant and seashell locket and these gorgeous tortoiseshell earrings from Urban Outfitters. Finally, I added one of my favorite accessories of the year, my vintage beaded bag. Grab a similar style from Mango.

Drawstring Drama

I. Am. Absolutely. Obsessed with this dress! It's so chic and easygoing. I love all of the ties and drawstrings because it makes everything completely adjustable. I can leave it down as a midi, string it up short into a mini, or leave one side down and make it asymmetrical. There's so many choices! And you can dress it up or down depending on length and accessories. Okay rant over. But seriously, if you need this dress in your life, get it here. Mine is an amazingly priced dupe, so if you can afford the real thing then go for it. It's from the gorgeous brand Orseund Iris that I'm obsessed with. I went very resort with this look rather than the obvious formal style. I wore my good ol' vintage Gucci sunnies similar to these. I also styled this 90's throwback tortoiseshell barrette inspired by this beautiful Gucci one. Here's a more affordable one. I also styled really simple gold jewelry, like my favorite seashell necklace and initial pendant. These bracelets came as a set from Topshop from a few years ago, so here's a similar one. Finally, I wanted to go with a really unexpected shoe. These babouches scream Moroccan vacation and are super trendy. Scroll down to see how I make this dress asymmetrical!
