OOTD: Lazy Day with the Best Friend



I went to a Giants game last night (so fun!) and so today I'm just being lazy and hanging around at home. I'm watching Modern Family with my best friend, eating ice cream, and slowly packing up my clothes to go back to Scotland.


I got the tee shirt and the leggings from Topshop (the leggings were a present from my best friend, I love her!), and then I'm wearing my slippers from CVS, I think.

PS You should totally follow me on instagram @carrrrrrrro.

Love,

Find the Nomads

So I'm not sure if you know this, but I'm a bit of an internet nerd. I spend way too much time on my computer, and one of the things I love to do (like much of you, I'm sure) is watch youtube videos. There are some youtubers that I absolutely adore, and I follow them on instagram, twitter, etc. One of my favorites is Fun for Louis, which is actually the second, vlog-type channel to Food for Louis, and just started selling t shirts online, and I absolutely love them!
 
Since I'm usually very picky with my graphic t shirts, I thought Louis did a great job with these! I really like everything, but I thought I'd share my two favorites (that hopefully I'll be ordering soon) with you all.
 
The first is the Palm Tree Pocket T-shirt Grey. It comes in white and grey, but I prefer the grey just because I already have some white graphic t shirts, and most of my bras are colorful, and since I'm lazy its helpful to have some shirts that are not at al see through. I would pair this with some high waisted cut off denim shorts, some Tomes, a messy bun, and some aviators for a cute and casual summer look. For the winter, I would wear it with a pair of black jeans, some black moto boots, and my oversize cream biker jacket.
 
The second piece is the Peace Out, Enjoy Life T-shirt. I love the saying across the front, and paired with the cute yellow background and a little cartoon mountain for the A in adventure, I was immediately sold. In the summer time, I would pair this top with a skater skirt (preferably black or denim, but I honestly think any color would work), a light grey sweater, and some black t-strap sandals. When it gets colder, I would wear this with some distressed boyfriend jeans, a leather jacket, a cute white fluffy scarf, and some converse or tennis shoes in a light color.
 
 I honestly can not wait to get my hands on some of these t shirts! At around £20 each, these shirts are a pretty great deal if you're in the UK.
 
Let me know what you guys think! Are you planning on ordering some? Comment below!

Updated July Wishlist


So I didn't get the exact item that was on this list, because that white Topshop shirt was $60 and I've spent way too much money lately. But, I found this amazing Forever 21 shirt that looks literally exactly the same but it was only $22.80. And it is so cute and flattering! I definitely recommend it.

If you wanna see what it looks like on, I've already worn it in an outfit of the day for July 4th.

Love,

Caro

Sales!

So I'm not sure if any of you are aware of this, but it is sale season once again, and almost every store has pages upon pages of deals on their website right now. And once again, my wallet has taken a painful hit as it does every time there are lots of sales. What can I say, I'm a sucker for a good deal.

That being said, I thought I'd share some things I've picked up from various stores in the past few weeks.


So from the Topshop sale, I got a pair of Jamie rip knee jeans, a pair of joggers, a long sleeve crop top, a high-waisted check skater skirt, a fox jumper, and a washed v tee by boutique in green (I couldn't find a picture of the green shirt). 


From the Zara sale I got a shirt with tiny skulls all over it and a tee with little tigers all over. 


From the American Apparel sale I got a few different pairs of running and lounge shorts. It's not super exciting, but they were all only $5 and I have an obsession with pajamas and exercise clothes. When I don't go out, I tend to just sit around in sweatpants and other things like that/



And finally, I got a floral dress from LOVE clothing, and a floral playsuit from Lashes of London.

So that's everything that I've gotten from a bunch of different sales. I'm so excited for them to come in the mail! I have so many ideas for cute outfits for these pieces, from summer to winter.

Did you guys get anything from the sales? Tell me in the comments!

Love,

Style Icon: Emma Stone


Emma Stone: this style icon really doesn't need much of an introduction if you haven't been living under a rock for the past few years. She's hilarious and fun, and more than an awesome personality she has a cool sense of style. 


I absolutely love Emma's street style. From day to day she lives in jeans and a top, and when it gets colder she adds a cardigan or a cute jacket. For events, especially recently, she rocks a timeless, 1940's inspired glamour in her dresses and her hair and makeup.


To get Emma's look you need a lot of basics, like dark wash jeans, loose and comfy t-shirts, collared shirts, and jumpers. You can mix and match anything from these basics, and you have a cute simple outfit! Then, to add something extra, you can layer on a cardigan or a boyfriend jacket or a biker style jacket with an interesting print. For shoes, Emma loves ballet flats and brogues for most of the year, and some simple sandals when it gets warmer. Add a large tote in a neutral color to any of these outfits, and you have an Emma Stone inspired casual look. She doesn't wear a lot of skirts or dresses casually, but she almost always wears them for events. For a more formal look, stick to 1940's inspired dresses and skirts. 

The thing that I love most about Emma's style is how relatable it is. I could wear anything that she has worn and feel completely comfortable in it. 

What do you guys think of Emma's style? Do you love it, or is it too simple for your taste?

Love,

Caro
