  • Summer 2021 Purse Trends

    Hey, pretty girl!

    When it comes to accessories, purses are my favorite way to spice up a basic outfit. Janna got me this adorable butterfly purse on clearance for my birthday and it perfectly matches the trends of this summer’s purse trends.

    Trend 1: Market Tote Bags

    I’ve been obsessed with the market tote trend this summer. I picked up a graphic tote from the Loft for summer hammocking trips with Jack 🙂

    Saturated and pastels colors are coming in hot for summer 2021. Everything from blue, pinks, greens and oranges will add a pop of color to your neutral outfits.

    I love the shape of these bags and they are coming in the candy color tones for summer 2021.

  • The Perfect *Shop Local* V-Day Gift: Eleanore’s Accessories

    Hey, y’all!

    Let’s be honest, Valentine’s Day was created by large corporations (*cough* Hallmark *cough*), in order to make a ton of extra money. Therefore, it can be hard to want to give gifts to your SO on Valentine’s Day, without supporting the large businesses. I have your solution for the perfect Valentine’s Day gift that involves shopping both a local and small business…

    Eleanore’s Accessories!

    Eleanore’s Accessories is based out of Anoka/Coon Rapids, Minnesota. This business is run by Eleanore Lohse and Rowan Olson! These new business owners run a pressed-flower resin jewelry (with total Bridgerton Vibes) business while also studying at the University of St. Thomas.

    Eleanore and Rowen!

    Their pressed-flower resin jewelry is the PERFECT gift for this Valentine’s Day. Their items range from necklaces to earrings (the earrings I picked out are pictured below). This gift is so much more unique than giving your SO flowers, because these flowers will last forever and your SO can wear them everywhere! Each item is handmade and uniquely created, so you don’t have to worry about giving your SO a gift that they already own!

    This is also a super affordable gift! Right now, Eleanore’s Accessories is offering Free Shipping on all orders (and when it arrives, there is a sweet handwritten card). The item you choose also takes less than a week to arrive. If you’re looking to save a little extra money, you can get 10% off with code MARINB until Valentine’s Day.

    All of their shop items are attached below for easy shopping! Be sure to follow their instagram, @eleanoresaccessories, for more updates!

  • 5 Style Tips To Feel Your Best This Year

    Hey, pretty girl!

    One of my goals for 2021 is to post a blog post every single day (yep, that’s right – daily). Since the original inspiration for my blog was entirely centered around fashion, there was no better way to start off my blog posts than with a few overall fashion tips for the year.Just for a little fun, at the end of each one of my posts, I’m going to randomly give a little insight into myself so y’all can get to know me better!

    1.Don’t follow every trend.

    This one is a tough one for many people. Whenever a new trend appears, everyone seems to rush into buying and wearing it. The trend eventually crashes and burns, and you’re left with a “worthless” wardrobe. Instead, I suggest following the trends that suit your style best. For example, I LOVE the schoolgirl trend on other girls (it looks so cute and I love that it’s a trend), however, I personally know that the trend isn’t my style and doesn’t fit my personality. Don’t waste money on items that you can’t heavily incorporate with clothes you already have or your desired style.

    2. Accessorize, accessorize, accessorize!

    The easiest way to elevate any look is with some accessorizes. My favorite accessory is a purse! Quarantine has made this a bit difficult, since there are not too many places I’m going that I actually need to bring a purse with me. Accessories don’t need to be classic items such as jewelry, a purse or belt though. Accessorizing can include items such as shoes or a pretty detailing on one item of your clothing. While there is such a thing as having too many accessories, adding 2-3 accessories to a look can immediately elevate your style and confidence level.

    3. Plan out your outfits.

    If you find yourself constantly wearing the same outfits or pair of sweatpants (me 24/7 since March), the best way to get out of the habit and start feeling your best is planning your outfits ahead of time. While it may motivate you to plan a week in advance, I typically plan my outfits the night before. If you change your mind frequently, I suggest pulling the items off of hangers so that it makes it more difficult to put away and change your mind the next morning. This style tip definitely helps the motivation to wear the cute clothing items you have, instead of wearing the same old pjs (nothing wrong with this, but I find a much higher confidence level when I’m wearing stylish clothes).

    4.Use others for inspiration!

    One word – Pinterest. Pinterest is my go-to for all things fashion inspiration. If you want to accomplish a specific aesthetic or need outfit ideas for a specific event, Pinterest is awesome for gaining some inspiration! While I don’t suggest using this inspiration as a means to purchasing specific items, it is a great way to look at an image and utilize the clothing items you already have to create a similar look.

    5. When in doubt, overdress.

    Finally, if you’re not sure what to wear, it’s better to overdress than underdress. Some people may disagree with me on this, but I always feel much better when I overdress for an event than when I underdress. Plus, overdressing can leave you feeling more confident and stylish than those around you (helping you feel your best). My go-to outfit is ALWAYS a dress. Dresses are more comfortable for me and it’s so easy to bring a jean jacket to dress down a fancier dress.

    What are your favorite style tips?

  • How to Get the #NSale Spanx Leather Leggings without a Nordstrom Credit Card

    Hey, pretty girl!

    Shopping the Nordstrom sale can be a major hassle (especially if you’re a student and don’t have a credit score/large income yet). Typically, a lot of the items are sold out by the time non-credit card holders can shop. This means that the items a lot of people buy (specifically the Spanx leather leggings) are gone. I’m going to share with you how to get these leggings for a cheaper price (not cheaper than the NSale but still not full price) if you can’t get a Nordstrom credit card.

    Step 1: Go to the Spanx website.

    Step 2: Sign up for emails to get a 10% off code sent to your email.

    Step 3: Purchase the leggings for $88 instead of $100.

    Happy shopping!!

  • Nuyu College/Athletic Clothing

    Hey, pretty girl!

    My excitement for going back to campus has been elevating so much over the last few weeks!! I became even more excited this week when I received my Nuyu brand college wear items! I’m going to be an ambassador with Nuyu for 3 months with the help of Zfluence. I’m so excited to continue to promote Nuyu and other ambassador companies!!

    I received two items from Nuyu. The first item, the one I am sharing on my Instagram today, is the “Essentials by Nuyu Strappy Sports Top.” I’ve been living in this top since it arrived! It is so comfy and adorable! This top would be multifunctional!! I could wear it to work out at the gym, paired with leggings and a athletic zip up to class and with a tennis skort for gamedays!

    There are tons of purple and white apparal on the website for my UST girlies!! To shop at a discount use code FLASH75 for 75% off until Friday and TEAMMARIN for 25% off after that.

    Also, the first 75 people to comment “TEAMMARIN” on one of @nuyubrand ‘s posts, and DM me saying they completed it, will be entered into a $15 gift card raffle (winner chooses where the giftcard is from)!!

  • Sustainable Fashion with Rent the Runway

    Hey, pretty girl!

    After spending all week cleaning out my closet (I’ll be sharing clothes for y’all to buy soon), I realized how wasteful I used to be! That was prior to becoming part of Rent the Runway! Rent the Runway is a simple way to commit to sustainable fashion that you can switch up every month so you don’t get bored with the items you have!

    Some facts about Rent the Runway

    • Promote sustainable fashion
    • Offer a student discount
    • Deep clean clothing items (no covid worries)
    • Free shipping
    • Thousands of designer items (purses and jewelry too)

    My Experience so Far

    I have not regretted Rent the Runway for a second!! The customer service is so helpful with understanding how it works, the clothes come in great shape, I’m never bored with the outfits I pick and the sizing info is so accurate!!

    How to Get a Student Discount

    Use the UNiDAYS app for a 25% off discount on their basic 4-item per month / one-swap per month plan!! (Ends up being around $70 per month but you’re receiving $500+ designer merchandise).

    I hope you decide to go more sustainable with this company!!!

  • Mask up, Minnesota!

    Hey, pretty girl!

    Minnesota (finally) put a law into effect regarding wearing a mask in public, indoor spaces (linked the information on the mandate here)! In case you don’t have the masks you need before this law goes into effect on Saturday, I am sharing some stylish masks below!

    I shared masks in a variety of textures (ex. athletic texture for working out) and colors (to match every one of your outfits at school in the fall)

    Please stay safe AND keep others safe by wearing a mask!!

  • The Best Jeans

    Hey, pretty girl!

    When it comes to wearing jeans, I always struggle with finding a pair that fits snug in the right spots but not too snug where I can move. Usually, I settle for a pair that almost fits me right. Well, I have finally found a brand of jeans that is sustainable, size inclusive, has a flattering fit AND is comfortable.

    The brand of these jeans are KanCan. While they can be on the more expensive side, Maurice’s sells them for discounted prices in the clearance section of their stores. Right now is a super good time to stock up on these jeans before fall, as July is filled with lots of clearance products at stores.

    Why are these jeans “the best”?

    • They have sizes ranging from the equivalent of a 0 to 22
    • They hug your curves properly
    • They are made of an incredibly stretchy material
    • Some of their styles are made of recycled denim
    • They aren’t overpriced
    • They come in a variety of colors/styles

    Below I linked my LiketoKnowIt with a variety of KanCan denim styles. There is much more on the website, but the jeans below are fully stocked and at a reasonable price!

    I am a size 25 in these jeans and my measurements are as follows, waist – 25.5″ hips – 35.5″.

  • The F21 of Boutiques: Blush Mark

    Hey, pretty girl!

    Use code BlushMarin15 at Blushmark.com for 15% off! Code expires 7/30!!!

    I was fortunate to have had Blush Mark reach out to me recently for a collaboration. Upon opening their site, I was incredibly shocked at how low their prices were!! The clothing looked like something I would buy at a boutique for over double the price. As a college student looking to save money, I was immediately intrigued.

    I ended up receiving two items from Blush Mark. The first item was the purple dress shown below. The material on this dress is SO soft and it is one of the most comfortable dresses I own. I love how flattering it is, while also giving me comfort. Places I would wear this dress would include a date night at a restaurant (or take-out because that’s what I’m doing these days) or a future game-day at the University of St. Thomas.

    I bought a size small in this dress but definitely wished an extra small was an option! If you’re between sizes, for sure size down.

    Necklace: Soufeel Jewelry Carrie Name Necklace – for 15% off use code MarJay15

    The second piece I got from Blush Mark was the mint green jumpsuit pictured below. I’ve been OBSESSED with pastel colors this year and fell in love with the color of this jumpsuit. I also love jumpsuits because 1) they are simple to make an outfit with 2) they feel like pajamas 3) people will think that you tried really hard to look nice. This jumpsuit is a tad see through in the lower portion, but it makes the material a lot more breathable for summer weather. The ruffle detailing also added a super feminine touch to the look!

    I purchased a small in this jumpsuit and it fit perfectly! Definitely runs TTS!!

    Again, my 15% off code for y’all (BlushMarin15) expires on July 30th, so get to shopping if you want an even better deal than this website already gives you. Happy shopping lovies 🙂

    With Love, Marin
