LEATHER + BLANKET SCARVES ON REPEAT





Happy Wednesday!

The temperatures have been chilly (or worse) lately, and walking outside has been especially brutal for my early AM classes and my late night walks back to my place after spending hours in the library (yes...some would call me nerdy). My solution has been to literally live in blanket scarves. I guess they're my winter thing. 

I promise, there's no such thing as over-wearing them, especially when you live in Minnesota. These scarves are the perfect accessory and are totally multifunctional (that's where the blanket comes in). And talk about fun to mix and match. I loved adding a pink speckled sweater to highlight the pink in this tartan red scarf. 

Now, let's talk about the perfect little black purse. I scored this baby at the leather market in Florence, Italy, during my semester abroad. Totally worth the money. It's a great size, and even expands to a fuller body or reduces to just a clutch if you don't want the cross body strap. The best for going out (lipstick, ID, phone...check, check, check).

OK. In other news, life has been eventful the past few days: 

  1. Grease Live was amaze-za-zing. #sorrynotsorry for humming Grease songs all week.
  2. My Big Fat Greek Wedding SEQUAL? Apparently I'm late to the party on this one. But nonetheless, this news is life-changing. amiright?! How many days until March 25?
  3. The Bachelor...To be Continued... (my friends and I made our "Bachelor Babe Bracket." Still hating Olivia. Still loving Lauren B.)
  4. I learned today that college snow days are definitely a thing. HELLO SNOW. GOODBYE CLASS.

hi, hey, hello

HELLO & WELCOME!

My first post...ahh! It's been a long time in the making, and I'm so excited to get started!
Today is kind of a monumental day: my last first day of school...possibly ever. MY LAST SEMESTER OF COLLEGE. Let's just say...scared and excited and nerve-wracking (pinch me!!). As
my May graduation approaches (and it can take its sweet, old time getting here), it's time to kick it in gear and work on reaching my city dreams (PR job, city living, etc.).

City Dreams & Accessories is a creative outlet if anything else. A place for me to share what inspires me most, express my creative heart, and dream ridiculously big dreams... I promise there will be a whole lot of coffee, accessories, and freaking out along the way (because that's normal, right?).

Stay tuned for more posts as I journey through my last semester of school, one final Minnesnowta winter, a job hunt, and wherever else this crazy, beautiful life takes me.

xx, Caroline
