Blair Waldorf Is My Spirit Animal

H&M Top
Gap Scarf
Old Navy Peacoat
Leather Skirt from Random Place

*Disclaimer: If you don't watch Gossip Girl, first, I highly suggest you do. Second, you'll prob get annoyed by this post....but read it anyway!

To say I love Gossip Girl is an understatement. Maybe "I am obsessed with Gossip Girl" or "I breathe Gossip Girl" or "Blair Waldorf is my spirit animal" would suffice. Maybe. Now that we've established that, I can also reveal that my outfits are inspired by Gossip Girl at least one a week. This week's just happened to be more Blair than anything. Underneath, I'm wearing a bright yellow top from H&M with a white leather skirt. It was super super cold so I put on a red plaid scarf, legging, high socks, and boots. Finally, I added a navy peacoat and a bright yellow headband. This outfit seems complicated, but it's really just layering and colorblocking. I get really bored with dull colors in the winter and I'm always looking to spice things up. Hence, the bright yellow with red, navy, grey, and white. When you get too bored of black and white this winter, try adding pops of color!

love,
Maggie

TRIP TO NEW YORK CITY

 
 
Hello all, if you have been following me on my instagram, you know very well that I FINALLY MADE IT TO NEW YORK! Visiting, seeing, living, even touching New York City has been a dream of mine since before the pre-reconstruction era (sorry I've been missing APUSH lately). Basically I've been obsessed for my entire life (I blame too many viewings of Eloise at the Plaza) and actually getting to go to the greatest city in the world was indescribable for me. Not to mention I got to experience the city with my two best and longest friends! A dream come true right?! YES! The trip could not have been more perfect, from sightseeing, to Bergdorf Goodman, to minor shoe mishaps, the trip was like living in a filterless scenic instagram picture. But okay, here's the quickest synopsis ever of my three and a half day trip: We arrived at our hotel around 3:00pm on Saturday and went straight to the Upper West Side. We saw the Gossip Girl made famous Empire Hotel, Lincoln Center, Century 21, Central Park, Columbus Circle, and more! Next day(Sunday) we toured, shopped, walked, lived, kissed(just kidding), the Upper East Side and Fifth Ave! We went to the MET, the Plaza, Bergdorf's, and more and I DIED! Monday(I'm so dead of happiness by this point) we went shopping in Soho(loved), then went to the Top of Rockfeller Center(loved!), and that night saw Phantom of the Opera on Broadway(LOVEDDDDD!). Finally, our last day, we awoke super early to stop by Good Morning America then to catch a quick brunch before our flight. Our plans were slightly altered when we realized KARLIE KLOSS was going to be on GMA! Of course we stayed and my friend Eric even got a picture with her! And, just like that, our trip was over and we were back on a flight to Nowhere, GA.
 
 
Now here are my main OOTD's from the trip. Let me just say there were a lot of wardrobe changes on my part:)

So, sorry I've been so nonexistent lately... To my surprise, summer is actually one of the busiest times of the year. And I've been spending a lot of it wearing the high fashions of t-shirts and tank tops! What kind of a fashion blogger am I? Anyway, this was a random outfit I wore to lunch with my mom. I am simply mixing the colors yellow and navy with brown accents. Super fun, super classy looking color combo, I would wear it everyday honestly. Also, they are both solid pieces, making the outfit more dressed up and sophisticated. Till next time!
