Stripes and Bright Lips

I've been struggling to put outfits together for this in between seasons weather, especially when I have a long day on campus. This tee was comfortable for both the chilly weather this morning and when the sun came out mid-day.

Honestly, I'm getting a little bored with dark winter colors. Thankfully, I picked up this fun lip color this past weekend and it added the perfect pop of color to my outfit. A bright lip is the perfect way to throw some color in an outfit without being too loud!

I've been obsessing over NYX (especially lip) products lately! This lipstick was just as bright at noon as it was when I put it on at 8 a.m. Would y'all like to see a beauty post soon? I'd love to share my favorite products with y'all. Let me know in the comments!

Xoxo, Caylin

Spring Fever

I am so bored with winter already! I've even starting putting away most of my sweaters. Since I can't get away with shorts and tank tops just yet, I'll just throw on some spring colors to satisfy my spring fever.

I know lavender is going to be on repeat for me this season and these amethyst Kendra Scott earrings are going to be my go-to accessory. This light sweater is the perfect mix of cozy with a spring vibe!

Happy weekend y'all!

Welcome to My Blog

Hi everyone! Thanks for stopping by my blog! I have always wanted to start blogging but I wasn't sure how or where to start. This semester I got quite the push because I am taking two courses on social media and my professors are sort of requiring me to start blogging. However, I'm pretty excited to get started and learn as I go (bear with me okay). So in case you're like, who is this girl's blog that I just happened to stumble upon?? I'll tell you a little bit about myself.

I am 20 years old and in my third year of college. I am majoring in corporate communications at Lamar University. One day I would love to work in social media marketing! I love wearing bright, colorful outfits 365 days a year and anything sparkly.

Now for the outfit.. I'm wearing this tonight for a dinner date. Today had a high of 70 and I know spring is right around the corner (yay)! I'm a little sad to put away these booties though so I'm trying to get my last few wears out of them. This long striped tee is perfect to throw on for those days where its still a little chilly in the morning but warms up by the afternoon!

I can't wait to share more outfit posts and style inspiration with ya'll!
