My Fall Semester in Outfits

It's official ya'll: I have completed the fall semester of my senior year in college. These past three years have been a whirlwind of incredible experiences and I can truly say that my nearly four years in college have been some of the best years of my life. My time at school has transformed me into a confident young woman who is blessed enough to live a life that I could only dream of living when I was younger. It's been a hell of a ride and I'm excited to continue to learning, growing and pseudo-adulting. 

A lot of things have changed since my first year at school, especially my sense of style. New York has helped me to develop my own taste and establish a unique aesthetic. I'm so glad that I had this platform throughout my college experience to chronicle how my personal style has evolved. It's always fun to look back and see myself wearing outfits that I associate with different events. A lot of the outfits bring back certain memories and others remind me that I should never, ever wear them again :)

In honor of turning in my last final exam today, I decided to take a look back at some of my favorite looks that I wore this semester. I’ve linked all of the items that are still available and similar items if they are not.

Clothing is truly a vehicle for showing your personality and telling your story. Each look that I put together is created in relation to some facet of my identity that I want to showcase. I love sharing my ideas about fashion and personal style in posts like these where the outfits are simple looks that I styled on a daily basis. More posts like these to come.

I'd love to hear what you all gravitate towards while dressing on a daily basis. Do you stick to a particular uniform or go with what speaks to you? I'd love to hear from you in the comments!

Keep checking back for more outfit inspiration and musings on fashion and personal style. Much love :)
