Cute & Comfy #1

Cute & Comfy outfit #1! 

I wanted to start off my series with one of my favorite outfits. I wear this outfit more in the spring because of the oversized sweater. To those of you who asked me to make an outfit and incorperate a white crop top... here you go. Hopefully this still meets your school dresscode for you highschool students. If not, don't worry... there will be a lot more that will be. 


Top: 
This outfit looks best with a loose crop top in my opinion, but it still looks good with a tight one. For a wide variety of options, printed crop tops look good with this also. 

Price: $1.00
Where is it from: I found mine from the thrift store, and then cut it to the size i wanted it. It started off as a white plane scoop neck t-shirt. 



Bottom: 
Now you can replace these with any pants you want obviously. I also like plain shorts (no studs like these) with this outfit and colored high wasted shorts. 

Price: $3.00
Where is it from: Thrift Store! These were normal straight leg high waisted jeans that i cut and destressed. I also added studs to the pocket of mine.


Sweater: 

Now this is the main part of the outfit. On a colder spring day i love throwing on a oversized gray cardigan. You can find them in many lengths, textures, and fits. 

Price: $6.00
Where is it from: Also thrifted. This sweater is orginally from Urban Outfitters



Shoes: 
I personally love wearing my Doc Martins with this outfit. If you don't have/like them, any combat boot would look great. This is a perfect opportunity to make your favorite boot pop since you don't have long pants on! Also, because this outfit is so plain, you can wear a printed shoe/boot. I also like wearing floral Doc Martins. 

Price: $120.00
Where are they from: Doc Martins website. You can find these in the mall at a Bakers shoe store, but mine didn't have this color in my size. 

Accessories: 
 I think any pops of color/hardware you want to add to this outfit would look great! I personally like wearing Gold or rose gold. If i'm not wearing doc martins or a printed shoe, i'll wear a colored scarf or colored necklaces/earrings.
For bags, i love my go-to black studded bottom purse. I do use this for class occasionally, but if you wear this to school by all means wear your backpack or whatever tote bag you use. 








Also with the accessories, wearing a scarf would be really cute, any color and any print would bring your outfit together.

New Series!

Hello Beauties, i just wanted to make a quick post to let you know about something new that's going to be starting here on my blog!!

I always get asked by people in school and on the internet what are good school outfits that look cute but are comfy. Cute and Comfy is how i dress for school, and i'm putting together a series of outfits that i feel would be an inspiration to you guys! 

So for every post i make, there will be an outfit & information about it, also some may have pictures of me wearing the outfits.

BUT.... i need your help. 
Since you all are the ones asking for help, i figured it would be easier if you told me a piece you'd like me to incorperate in the outfits. For instance, if you wanted outfit ideas to wear including a white crop top, let me know & i'll give you my help. 
Hopefully i explained that well, 

You can leave your ideas in the comments or let me know on my YouTube/Tumblr (listed below)!

Thank you so much,
Lexi

Shoe Day Tuesday #1 - Steve Madden Valatne Flates


Shoe Day Tuesday!! 

This is going to be a short post, but i wanted to show these shoes some love for a "shoe-day Tuesday". 
These are the Steve Madden Valatne Flats. Steve madden shoes can be purchased at any Steve Madden store, Department Stores (Macys, Nordstroms, ect), SteveMadden.com, and many other websites. I bought mine for $117.00 off of the Steve Madden website. I'm sure you can find them cheaper on other websites such as Overstock.com, or belk.com/SteveMadden. 

These shoes are perfect to wear with any outfit. You can Dress them up, dress them down, wear it in a flirty outfit, or even edgy. When i go to school, i like wearing these with Leggins and a long sweater (only in the winter), Jeans and a oversized White V-neck, and now i've been loving them with high waisted shorts. These shoes are perfect for Spring, Summer, and Fall. I LOVE THEM. I would highly suggest these shoes.
