I love fit and flare dresses and skirts. The silhouette is very classic and you can pretty much never go wrong with one! I have several dresses, a black one and grey lace one that I love. I have several skirts - a black one and a grey and black one, both from Express last season. I want to add one to my wardrobe for spring so I've been on the hunt for something fun! I also want something a little different than I already have. This fluted skirt is perfect! I love the shape of this skirt because it looks good with a shirt and flats or a blouse and heels. I've been working on only investing in quality pieces to make sure that I have nice work clothes to wear when I graduate and enter the workplace. The color is muted yet bright. I also love the color because jewel tones make everyone's skin color pop!

I really want to get back to posting more regularly. It's so cathartic for me to post about fashion and food after working on some serious math and science. Here are some square snaps of my week so far!

After a little contemplation and a huge push from my friends, I got a couple more things to add to my fall wardrobe. I stuck with classic colors to match with with everything I own. I also tried to stick with things that work with a lot of clothes that I have and that pack nicely for conferences. I have a couple to go this year and I like to make sure I put my best foot forward.

This will be perfect with boots and dark skinny jeans for the fall! I can also pair it tucked into an A- line skirt with tights!

This plaid shirt is perfect layered under on of my various sweaters or with black flats for a casual class day.

You can never go wrong with a white t-shirt.

White with Navy Stripes for a better stripe collection!

You can't just buy the navy without buying the red one too! Striped T-Shirts

Perfect for nights out or for class!

I hate buying thing before I go back to school because I can never tell if it's something that other people are wearing (it's super trendy here) vs. something I think is super nifty. I go to a pretty conservative campus, people usually wear jeans and a tee or gym clothes to class. Due to super sales and some necessities, I got a couple staples to spice up my wardrobe and keep my style casual but still very me.

I picked up a couple of button downs from Old Navy for some fun! I love them with skinny jeans and flats for class or buttoned low with heels for date night. My female professors always love it when I wear button downs to office hours. One told me that I looked very professional. Simple Oxfords Plaid Shirt

I love striped shirts with colorful flats for those colder days on campus. I own a ton of navy, red and white striped shirts but a grey one was needed for my collection. Perfect Striped Tee

I got this Coral and Cream top for some late summer fun. It will also look adorable paired with a cardigan in the winter with some boots. Unfortunately, this top sold out a couple of days ago.

I picked up my version of a peplum top. A little more drapey and a lot more canvas for a statement necklace. Taylor's Version of a Peplum I might pick up a couple more plain tees once the weather gets a little colder but for now, these purchases combine with my wardrobe to make this fall outfits a little better in State College.
