Sense and Sensibly stylish

Hey lovelies! I'm back with part 2 of my Jane Austen fashion series! I'm going to do another one of my Austen favorite: Sense and Sensibility. This is Jane's first published work and my first attempt a men's fashion! So lets get to it!
(Psssttt: If you missed Pride & Prejudices click here)

Elinor Dashwood

Elinor Dashwood is the one with the common sense in the Dashwood group. She's the one who keep a level head, even when her man was being shady as hell. Elinor doesn't want any fancy bright color, she was comfy shoes and a nice handbag.

Marianne Dashwood

Oh Marianne, what ever are we going to do with you? You are straight up the typical teenage stereotype: Head over heals for the charming bad boy and almost die when he dumps you. Marianne is youthful, so the sky-high heels, flower dress, and this cute purse go great with her personality. Sire she grows up at the end, but right now she's forever young.

Edward Ferrars

Out of all of Jane Austen's male love interest, Edward Ferrars is my least favorite. Maybe because I have a strong thing against momma's boy (Long story, high school suxed) But as fair as Austen men go entirely, he's okay. Kinda boring, kinda waited for mom to find him a job, drags his feet on marrying Elinor, and has a whole secret engagement he kinda forgot about. But hey, it's super loyal and honorable in the end. Could Elinor do better, probably. But hey, #betterthanwickham.

John Wiloughby

Boy, what can a girl a say about John Willoughby? When I putting together Wiloughby outfit, I thought to myself: "What would a punk-ass douche bag wear?" this is what I came up with. Wiloughby is really a rough draft version of George Wickham we see in P&P but with one thing different: a redeemable moment. My favorite part in Sense and Sensibility is when we all think Marianne dying, he comes in and apologizes for being a piece of shit and said he should have treated her better. And this leaves her alone forever. It's perfect. It's something that every girl wants after a bad breakup: "I loved you, i'm sorry, I'm an asshole I'm leaving forever" It's honestly a perfect sense.

Colonel Brandon

I have a weird love for Colonel Brandon. Is he too old for Marianne? Maybe. Does he have a screwed up dating history and totes hot for damsels in distress? For sure. But this man has style.

So there we have it. This weeks, Jane Austen fashion. Love it? Hate it? Have a suggestion? Tell me in the comments! And check out my Polyvore page more great style at flymetothemoon23

Best Sunglasses and Swimsuit Pairings

Image
Hello loves! Summer is finally here and I am so happy! It’s been a hard winter, but summer seems to finally set in, and I have embraced it with open arms.  One of my favorite thing about summer is the fashion! I love shorts, tank tops, sandals, and dresses, all of which were made for summer. However, my favorite summer outfit is probably a bikini and a pair of sunglasses, a.k.a the one true pairing. I love more than anything is to go for a swim in my pool and then dry off with a good book. I go through tons of sunglasses over the years, always on the hunt for the “perfect pair”.  Which is why I got so excited when Warby Parker, an online shop that sells gorgeous prescription glasses and sunglasses at affordable prices, announced the launch of their newest collection of sunglasses called “The Summer Edit” with different styles for everyone!  My eyes were particularly drawn to the more feminine styles (because when am I not drawn to all thing girly? lol). Plus, th...

Fashion History Lesson: Chokers

Image
Hello, lovelies! I hope everyone is doing well today. It's actually supposed to be in the 70's here this week and I'm super excited. I'm trying not to get my hopes for an early spring...but I'm totes getting my hopes up for an early spring. Today I'd thought I'd talk about my two favorite things: fashion and history. I am a huge history buff and I actually love watching different trends turn up again in different ways throughout history. What's cool about fashion is that it's circular, even though they may look a little different with each go around. So we'll start off with one of my favorite trends going on right now: the choker. I'm obsessed with chokers you guys! Like they are the perfect way to have a little edge in your lives: whether you're trying to channel a little bit of 90's kid vibes into your style, or go full blown Edge Queen.           See? From 90's Princess to Power Witch, get a girl who can do both. Or you ...

My Top 24 Outfits

Image
Hey loves! Hope you all are having a wonderful Wednesday and just having a good month in general. August is my favorite month, not only because it's my birthday month, but because I can enjoy pumpkin spice everything and Halloween decorations in 80-degree pool weather. Speaking of birthdays...my birthday is tomorrow! I'll be turning the big 24 and kinda feeling meh about it. I've never really been excited about my birthday unless I was going on a trip or something. Idk, I get weirdly sad about my birthday. Plus I feel like I celebrated it a week ago when I got my first byline in Teen Vogue  which was an amazing experience and like I'm so proud of it, and a friend came over and celebrated with me which was really nice. I don't think of doing much tomorrow. Maybe go to Barnes and Noble, but nothing really cool. Helloooo adulthood. Anyway, in honor of my 24 birthday, here are my top 24 favorite outfits that I've ever put together. From vintage dresses to fancy ...
