I have found over the years that my style is actually pretty rudimentary. It is more practical, comfortable, and sensible that what probably deserves a fashion blog. However, I always incorporate THE RULE OF THIRDS. What the heck is that? It is easy to learn! Always incorporate 3 pieces of clothing: a shirt, pants, and …
Polka Dot Dress from DownEast Basics
This post is sponsored by DownEast Basics So I saw this really cool blog the other day, called Forage Fashion. As I was scrolling through her outfit posts, I noticed how well done her photos were! I was trying to figure out who took her photos, so I went to her About Me page. It …
Swim in Rainbow
Something completely cool about todays’ style is the fact that one piece swimsuits have come full circle. Back in high school, they weren’t oh-so-cool, nor were they easy to find. I lived in California during my high school years, so many swimsuits were necessary to function in society. I also felt, at the time, that …
Lazy Day Wearing Clogs
Hi, Have we met? I am Lauryn, lover of my husband, dogs, and clothing. Oh, and I am the laziest hair-person (hair-doer?) you’ve ever heard of. We are talking, wash 2x a week, pull it into a pony tail AT LEAST 3 times a day, in a braid/bun for the other waking moments of the …
Why it is Totally Cool to be a Special Education Teacher

Back to Black
FINALLY. I have found the perfect skinny jeans for me. I picked them up at my favorite thrift shop Uptown Cheapskate and have worn them almost everyday since. I lucked out getting them for a cheap price! If you are a jeans girl though, I would highly recommend spending the money on Diesel! Even though …
Cents of Style x The Shopping Bag
I have some good news, and some bad news… The good news, is that I got a job! A real life career job. On Friday the 13th I went in for an interview at a local district, and walked out with a contract! I’ll be teaching in the Fall in a special education classroom. Okay, …
patent leather
Style Note: These Sole Society shoes have been given so many compliments! I wore them to Provo Fashion Week VIP showing last Tuesday, knowing they were my most comfortable heel, and they were constantly mentioned! I feel like the elastic band of the shoe was the perfect juxtaposition for the chiffon and leather collared shirt …
