I started reading Kelly in the City when she was a teacher in NYC and still continued to read her blog as she moved to Chicago (want to visit there so badly) and takes on fun blog projects. Her style is very me - a ton of J. Crew, lots of layering and cute bags and shoes. She also has THE cutest dog -Noodle. She's always a blog that I can get an idea to wear something for class or for a casual night with friends. Check out some of her best outfit posts recently below!

Jessica Sturdy or Bows and Sequins' style is something that I love because she takes way more risks than I would and looks awesome doing it. She's got that whole glam awesome thing going on and I really like how she layers clothing as well as her combination of colors. It's rare that I really like someone's style who is as girly as Jessica is but she really has the balance between too feminine and really classic. Check out my favorite outfits from her recently and see if you can get some glam inspiration for class or a night out!

Kat and Em of The Refined Woman are two women to watch out for in the blogosphere. They are loud in their wants for women of today and I love reading their posts on their outfits to manifesto for women today.

I love Hallie or Coral and Cognacs' writing style. She is a breath of sassy air from some of my other favorite bloggers. I really like that she is so real in what she writes, her experiences, and how she takes living and working in New York City. I really appreciate when people give their true opinion and do not hide themselves in their writing online. I try to emulate that here in this space - I give you all the truth about my experience as a engineer - a fashionable one at that. Here are some of my favorite outfits that Hallie has worn recently. She's really different sometimes but still really classic in the lines she goes for in creating an outfit and I LOVE getting inspiration for going out from her!

At first, I hated this blog because I thought that she spent a lot of money on clothes and that was not practical. As I have gotten older and wiser, I realize that good quality basics will last forever and ever and ever. I also have realized that the simplest approach can be the best. Outfits do not need to have 700 accessories to look good. What is important is that you take care of your hair and skin so you glow! Also, allow yourself to shine in an outfit, not the outfit overshining you. Kat Tanita from With Love From Kat is so good at this. Everything is simple, pretty and put together. Her style is what I emulate on vacation. People wonder why a dress so simple looks like a million dollars - take care of yourself and you totally know why! Check out some of my favorite looks from Kat!

You know when you read someone's writing and you die of laughter because they are sassy and witty and also great at putting together fun outfits? That's Kendi Skeen of Kendi Everyday. I love her style and it really tells me a lot that me at 21 thinks that her at "25" is killing the outfit game. I love her combinations of high and low, her store and everything about the shoes she wears. Shoe girls have to stick together, nah mean? Anyway, check out some of my recent favorite outfits on her blog!

I've been reading The College Prepster or Carly Heitlinger since my freshman year and she always has great advice on studying and keeping organized. Since she has graduated, her blog has turned into a lifestyle blog that I really enjoy reading. My favorite posts are the outfit posts and the weekly recaps of cool things on the internet. One thing I really enjoy about Carly's style is that she tries a lot of different things within her preppy bubble. I love to get inspiration for class and work outfits from her. Below are some of my favorite outfits featured on her blog!

I love Sydney Carver's style aka Summer Wind. Her blog is one of my favorite reads and I love her take on classic style in a modern world. She loves a lot of the same things I do: going out and having a good time, working hard in her field of choice and J. Crew. It's hard to find people that get what I like style wise but she is spot on. There is a way to be modest, sexy and sophisticated all in the same outfit. She also always has like perfect hair and makeup all the time - a feat that I am most definitely working towards achieving! Below are some of my favorite outfits from her blog recently!
