I first came across The Design Studio one day while on Tumblr. Their jackets immediately caught my eye because of their unique designs and use of faux fur. After I later did more research in to the line, I found out that each jacket is one-of-a-kind and handmade by the mother daughter team that makes up The Design Studio. I could not wait to order one for myself. I love the bright aqua and turquoise accents on this one. I’m hoping to get another pastel colored piece for the summer.

These photos were taken back in June of 2014. It is really fun for me to look back at pictures to see how my look has grown and how my personal style has evolved over the years. I used to be very into loud prints and bright colors, which I think worked for me at the time. Now, though I still love prints and incorporating color into my looks, I do so in a much more subtle and sophisticated way. It is very clear, though, that my love of gold jewelry, oversized sunglasses and cool handbags has only strengthened over time. I know I will be wearing big, gold hoops into old age! The banana leaf print dress was from ASOS and the pink handbag was from Kate Spade.
