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 🙂

Trend 2: Candy Color Purses

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.

Trend 3: Teardrop Shapes

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

Trend 4: Hair Scarf Bag

I saw this on TikTok and had to share because you probably have a hair scarf lying around somewhere!

Hey, pretty girl!

It’s been a while! I’m back in my second semester routine and am excited to get started up on writing on my blog again. To start back off, I wanted to share this amazing launch from Pink Lily Boutique!! I’ve been purchasing from Pink Lily Boutique for a long time and was so excited when I heard Caitlin was launching a summer/spring vibe line with them (let me tell y’all, it did not disappoint).

I separated this post by item type and linked everything for easy shopping! Be sure to start shopping quickly, these items will sell out insanely fast (use code CAITLIN for 20% off).

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.

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!

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?

Hey, pretty girl!

Let me introduce you to a brand new company that just launched… Solar Eclipse!! This company’s focus is that “women are everything.” This company, created by women, focuses on celebrating a woman for who she is now (this motto is absolutely everything). They are not only focused on supporting women but also only sustainable and beautiful designs. Every style is made from cruelty free materials including vegan leather and vegan faux fur. Even the packaging is plastic free and recyclable!!

I’m a current ambassador for their company (meaning y’all get a discount!!)

Hey, pretty girl!

This week, I asked y’all via Instagram polls what content you would like to see for the next couple months. While I’m definitely planning some great holiday content already, fall content is what most of y’all are looking for! I got an overwhelming number of you who wanted/needed outerwear for fall. Today, I found a 30% off sale at Maurices for all outerwear (including the shacket trend ahhh!!)

If you’re looking for a basic blazer coat, shacket or transitional winter coat… I got you.

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!!

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!

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!!!

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!!

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″.

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.

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

Hey, pretty girl!

I have a shopping problem…a huge one. I like to buy new things but once the “newness” wears off, I’m ready to purchase something else. This started to become a tad problematic for my bank account, so I decided to try out Rent the Runway.

With the “one swap” subscription, originally $89/month, plus the discount from the UNiDAYS app, it only costs approximately $67 a month to rent four items. At the price I typically buy clothes, this saves me about $100 per month! It’s also more eco-friendly to rent clothes (clothes are the #2 polluter after oil!!!)

In my Instagram post today, I am showcasing two of the items I have this month! I am wearing the BlankNYC Bowery Skinny Jeans (which I plan on purchasing because they fit way too good to give them up) and the Slate & Willow Red Leather Moto Jacket.

I will be showing y’all my other two rentals late this week or into next week! Hope everyone is staying healthy and at home!

Hey, pretty girl!

This one is going to be a quick post! Wanted to share a causal but feminine look for Valentine’s Day & a song I’m lovin’ right now that was the inspiration for my IG post today!

Sweater : This sweater is from my favorite store, Red Dress Boutique. This sweater is casual but has a feminine feel to it w/the see through holes and frill! Unfortunately, it is sold out right now. However, if you add your email to the list you will be notified when it restocks!

Jeans : These are the BEST jeans y’all. Especially for my fellow not thick, thick girls. It hugs your curves in all the right places and fits like a glove! I got a size 26 for reference.

Purse : This purse adds a pop of pink for a cute & simple Valentine’s Day look. This would look adorable for a night out with your girls or a date with your man!

Boots : Sorels are my go-to when it comes to boots! Not only do they incorporate heels into a boot design, but they are SO comfy. They are on the spendy side but totally worth the price.

Hairband : This hairband takes me back to when I was a little girl. Sometimes it’s fun just to throw a lil innocence into your adult look!

When wearing this hairband I immediately thought of a Kelsea Ballerini song and knew I needed to use it as my caption: In Between.

The lyrics of this song are so relatable for us first year college students! We are in this in between phase that can be so complicated to navigate it at times. Give the song a listen to for me!
