OOTD: Love This Prairiecore Outfit

This prairiecore outfit was a lot more romantic or “girly” than I usually dress but I loved it! I swanned about work all day in this ruffled confection (similar). The boots (similar) toughened it up just the right amount. The Lauren Conrad overpiece helped bring a little extra prairiecore drama to the look. I picked

Pastels & a Cute Short Haircut

Finally Found: The Perfect Plaid Shacket

Plaid Shacket Hesitation I have held off on the plaid shacket trend for a good long time now. Firstly, because I thought they were kind of ugly to start with haha. Another thing that made me hesitate is that I live in Florida & didn’t think I’d use it enough to justify paying a lot.
