How We Wore It: Floral

Happy Friday! I hope you all had a fabulous 4th of July and hopefully you are enjoying a long weekend and don't have to work today.

Fashion Flirtation's Five Friday Faves:

1. Food for Thought: What I Plan to Teach My Kids About Bikinis by Katilda. And to be completely honest, I don't agree with her 100% on this, but it is a very well post and gives some great insight!

2. Looks I Love: CaraLoren in a pant suit. For real, can she get any cuter? Every time I see her photos, it makes me want to purchase a pant suit. 

3. Inspiration: Brittany Fuson Paper. Okay, this isn't a blog post, but how can you not be so inspired by Brittany's amazing sketches? I'm dying over all of them, and even the luggage tags are so cute! Head on over to her site and check it out. She is amazing.

4. If You Need a Laugh: This video about social media that Story of My Life posted! [There are a couple of swear words in this, so be aware.]

5. Beauty Tips: Twist Me Pretty. If you need any ideas for your hair, head on over tot this site. This girl is amazing at doing hair, and has tutorials for all of her hairstyles! You can purchase the Hairstyle Handbook HERE.

Today, I am teaming up with some lovely bloggers to bring you a "How We Wore It" segment. I have always loved these, because it showcases different ways that you can style a trend. Today we are showing you how we styled florals, which is a definite must for summer. I love this trend because you can literally wear it on any part of your body, and it is going to look fabulous. Floral tops, floral skirts/jeans, floral hats, floral scarfs, floral shoes, etc. They all look great, so don't be afraid to try it!

Check out Love Me, Dani Marie, A Beautiful Heart, and Jessica Jean Blog for some fab looks! [And PS, I took these photos before I cut my hair! :]

Okay--I wanted to start a little something. Fashion Flirtation's Five Friday Faves. [Try saying that 5 times...] I saw something similar on this blog, and totally fell in love with the idea. So every Friday, I am going to share my 5 favorite posts of the week. [It doesn't necessarily have to be from that week; it will just be something that I found that week.] But really, what's better than being introduced to new bloggers/posts? Not many things. 

So this week's Five Friday Faves:

1. Food for Thought: Priorities by Story of my Life. This post was so refreshing to hear. And, this is probably one of my favorite topics. Ever. I could seriously talk/blog about this topic every day and not be sick of it. [Though you guys might ;] I have so many thoughts/feelings on the things we prioritize and why we do or don't prioritize them. [Am I even making sense right now?] We have time for what we make time for. Quit making excuses. Just do it. 

2. Looks I Love: Pearls, Sequins, and Studs by The Sweetest Thing. Guys... possibly my favorite blog. Ever. I just love how real she is about everything. There are so many blogs I read where I'm just like, "Okay, your life can't be that perfect." And it just annoys me. But Emily is always honest and funny and I just love her! Oh, and I may or may not have [but definitely did] buy that Clare Vivier clutch from her this week. I am DYING. But anyway--I love everything about this look. She always dresses so girly and chic--sequins, pink, pearls? Love it.

3. Inspiration: Just Around the Corner by Meet the Thompsons. [One of my best friends. She just started a blog, so check it out and follow along with her!] I always love reading posts that just inspire you to be better and puts everything into perspective. This was definitely one of them. 

4. If You Need a Laugh: It's Not Always Perfect by Always, Maylee. I really do love a good blooper post. I've done a few before, and it's nice to see other bloggers keeping it real. 

5. Beauty Tips: Brow School by Maskcara. But pretty much any of her blog posts. She is the best beauty blogger ever, so you should all definitely head on over to her blog!
