Myth: Short Girls Can't Wear Maxi Skirt/Dresses
This is a myth that I can definitely empathize with. I'm 20 years old and stand a solid 5' 2", but I love the maxi look. Maxi skirts and dress have become very popular recently, but I'm constantly hearing shorter girls say they can't rock this look, which is, in a word, false. Like most trends, it's all about styling. Exhibit A:
Jacket: Lauren Conrad for Kohl's
Tank Top: H&M
Skirt: H&M
Sandals: American Eagle
Purse: H&M
Ring: Lauren Conrad for Kohl's
Because of the maxi skirt I chose, it's hard to tell that I'm fun-sized (or any other euphemism for short there is). Like I said before, I suffer from a short complex, that I've managed to come to terms with. My tips for maxi skirts are opt for a higher waisted skirt. It lengthens your legs and helps create the illusion of a taller figure. This myth is almost backwards and can make you look taller if anything. If you're still iffy about it or you have a maxi dress you can always go for a pair of heels or wedges.
Now we can safely say this Myth has been officially BUSTED.

Stripes are a really big trend this Summer and a personal favorite of mine, although my wardrobe does not reflect that. I tried for something a little casual, but I dressed it up with my favorite periwinkle wedges.So, here is my take on this Summer fad. Enjoy:
Striped Peplum: Kohls (Similar

The peplum is making a comeback! And who doesn't love a good comeback story? It's a very interesting and flattering shape. It's so popular it comes in every variety.
1. The Peplum Dress:
This peplum is a little more subdued and very flattering for anyone.
2. The Peplum Blouse/Shirt:
This peplum top is from Abercrombie & Fitch and is very versatile.
3. The Peplum Skirt:
This floral peplum skirt from Zara is a little more prominent and can looks great with a fitted top.

A very big piece this summer is the tie front shirt. There are so many out there to choose from. I love this style, so I went with a teal lace-back tie-front shirt from Kohl's and paired it with linen shorts and a bandeau to go under it.

For me, jewelry is the last thing I'm willing to spend my money on. So, I've boiled it down to 3 basic types of necklaces that every jewelry box should have to make the most of your accessories and outfits.
1. The Big and Bold Necklace
This type of necklace is an essential. I suggest picking a necklace in either a silver, gold or black to increase the versatility of it. It's perfect for going out and can be easily used to make a statement. These can be worn with something as casual as a blazer and skinny jeans to something as formal as a dress. It can turn a regular outfit into a head turning one.
2. A Long Pendant Necklace
Again with these you may want to choose a neutral color. These go with virtually anything. They can go over a big sweater or a casual dress. This accessory is never overpowering, but can make your outfit all the more interesting.
3. The Simple Yet Elegant Necklace
These smaller elegant necklaces are great and I can wear them anywhere. I wear them to work or with just a t-shirt and jeans. They just added a little sparkle to an every day outfit.

Summer is upon us! One of my favorite styles and obsessions is nautical themed clothing. These shorts are nautical style with four buttons on either side and high-waisted. They cost me 15 bucks at Love Culture. I think they're a great piece to have in a wardrobe. It's definitely a piece that will stand out in a crowd. Here, I've paired it with a 5 dollar shirt I bought from H&M (score!) and a pair of oxfords from Shi by Journeys. A good pairing with these shorts could also be a striped shirt with a pocket or anything simple really. It's a very low maintenance outfit, which is why it's perfect for Summer.
