Obsessions Right Now!

Hey Preps!
     I have seen a couple blogs lately do their "Current Obsessions" as a post and I wanted to jump in on the fun! Here are some of my current obsessions!

1. Vests- I have been loving styling outfits with vests! I have a vest from Lands End with navy and pink floral designs, I also have the J.Crew Navy Puffer Vest. I think they add a perfect "pop of preppiness" into outfits and I love them so much! I think that they look so great over sweaters and flannels and they help warm you up in the cold!!

2. Bean Boots- Bean Boots have seriously been my go to shoes lately. I have been wearing them a lot in the rain, snow and even on just regular days! I like to wear them with some cute socks. I have some from H&M and I also have some adorable J.Crew trouser socks. Some girls at my school like to wear the Sperry's Bean Boot alternative.
3. Alex and Ani Bracelets- Alex and Ani bracelets are definitely an everyday wear item. I have three, one is the "Path of Life" that a good friend gave me and then I have two of the same. I have two of my birthstone. I think that they are super cute and they go well with anything. Recently, I had been having trouble finding some nice, gold bracelets to wear with my gold watch. One of my good friends gave me an Alex and Ani bracelet as a gift and it happened to be gold! Now whenever I wear my watch I wear that bracelet.
4. Kate Spade- I recently got a Kate Spade purse and earrings for Christmas. I wear the earrings nearly every single day. They are the gold bow earrings and I absolutely adore them. They are practically my favorite earrings ever. They look super cute with any outfit and they are very nice earrings. I think they are perfect.
5. Scout- Scout is such a cute brand. I have purses, wristlets, lunch boxes and even a backpack from them. They have the cutest patterns and the cutest items. I have an adorable storage bin in my room with a Scout pattern on it and it looks so good. My backpack is super cute, bright and hasn't let me down. I have had it since the beginning of the year, and it doesn't have one scratch, stain or tear on it. A huge plus about the Scout fabric is that it is waterproof. I first saw Scout when my Mom got a pool bag from them and I thought that type of fabric was only used for the pool bags. But each item is like that! Whenever I am at the bus stop in the rain, none of my school supplies get wet or ruined from my backpack getting wet! The water just rolls off! I love Vera Bradley, but when I had their backpack, in the rain my supplies would get soaked. I definitely recommend Scout.
6. Jadelynn Brooke- Jadelynn Brooke is absolutely adorable. I love all of their products and they are so well made. Before I was introduced to Jadelynn Brooke, I was obsessed with the Simply Southern brand. I love their shirts and thought they were the coolest thing ever. Once I got my hands on a fabulous Jadelynn Brooke Shirt, I have loved them ever since. What I had noticed about Jadelynn Brooke is that their shirts were way softer than Simply Southern. I still have all of my Simply Southern Shirts, and when I put them on they feel way more stiff than Jadelynn Brooke. Also, Simply Southern's prints on the shirt can crack and peel. None of my Jadelynn Brooke shirts have down that. I am hoping to be a High School Rep for Jadelynn Brooke next year because they have absolutely the cutest brand and their products are so "happy."



Jadelynn Brooke Sweatshirts!

Hey Preps!
     Long time no see! Sorry I haven't done a post in a while, school started back up again and exams are coming so I have been a bit busy. Here is a long awaited blog post:
     It has been really cold here, in fact this weekend there is a snow storm! It snowed and sleeted today so I went out sledding. I had to bundle up, and I immediately went to my Jadelynn Brooke sweatshirt for underneath my jacket. I got the "Preppy Nation" sweatshirt for Christmas and I love it so much! On the inside it is super soft and it is so adorable on the outside. Also, it keeps you so warm and adds style to a bundled up day. I like to wear mine over leggings since it is a bit long. I wanted it in a larger size, because the model online wore it with leggings and Hunter's. I liked that outfit a lot and wanted to recreate it! I like to wear either my Hunter's or my Bean Boots with my adorable sweatshirt. Another plus about these sweatshirts is the adorable design on the front. They have come up with the cutest pictures and styles for any preppy girl. I absolutely love all of their "Squad Goals" sweatshirts. Especially their old sweatshirt for the TV show Friends. I have been watching that on Netflix and I like it a lot. Another favorite sweatshirt of mine is the "Deerly Southern" mint sweatshirt with their logo "Happy" on the front. I definitely recommend these sweatshirts.

Layered Necklaces!

Hey Preps!
     I have been sporting an adorable, layered necklace. I think it is super cute and it goes well with so many of my outfits. They look very nice when you wear just a plain top with a cardigan. If you pair it with a preppy outfit that you'd normally wear with a long, simple necklace it adds a different look. I have one of the Francesca's necklaces and it is very simple and neutral to go with any outfit. I definitely recommend this type of necklace.
