Hello all of you boys and bombshells reading this! I turned into a detective and looked through the internet to find the best mini skirts for under $100. A good mini skirt will be one of your most versatile pieces for fall. I've been able to make so many outfits just off of one skirt! It kind of reminds me of that infamous math problem we all saw in our textbooks where Sue has 3 socks, 4 shorts, and 3 blouses, how many outfits can she make? In fashion, this is the only time I have appreciated math!  If you're planning on running errands or keeping it casual, just add Adidas for a more streetwear look. For work you can wear pointy ballet flats, or add booties for date night and show off those legs. When it get's chilly I'm just going to put a pair of tights on underneath. For tops the possibilities are endless too... I wore a neutral colored sweater which adds texture and keeps me cozy. I also styled it with a lace crop top and moto jacket.

This mini skirt is actually a mini skort. It has shorts in the back so it's super comfy. I got it at Zara last week so it's definitely still available! Some of my favorite places to shop for fashionable and affordable mini skirts for fall that are totally Instagram worthy are: 

ASOS 

American Apparel 

Choies 

Forever 21 

H&M

Nasty Gal 

Revolve 

She Inside 

Topshop

Urban Outfitters 

ZARA 

I hope you can find some adorable options that will be perfect additions to your fall wardrobe. After ripping open the internet, I think the winner of the cheapest and cutest skirt is this lace up one in baby blue from Choies for only $24! I would totally style it with a sweater the same light blue color and black booties! 

How are you going to style a mini skirt for fall? Isn't it sooo much cuter than boring pants?! :)

Is this heaven? I dragged my friend with me to puppy stores in West Village and Chelsea the other day and you can pick out any pup you want...and HOLD IT. I'm not ready to buy a dog (Danny, my yorkie, is at home with my family..mom don't let him read this!).

Shiba! He was super shy and quiet. 

This little morkiepoo fluffy ball is exactly what I will probably get. I love Yorkies and darker haired pups like Danny. Plus they are super playful and want to be loved up. 

Posted up at By Chloe in West Village! My favorite place in NYC for vegan food. I get the kale salad and gluten free fresh baked chocolate chip cookies of course. 

Laying out at Washington Square Park. I'm super happy I had time to blog and restart up my blog. My roommate was gone for the past week and it was sooo nice. I got a lot done and finally got to work on my blog and website. Normally she is always here so it's hard to get work done! It definitely motivates me to get my own place and puppy in the near future. I'm not ready for a dog yet, but they definitely win over my heart way more than any dude ever will. The real question is, what would I name my puppy?

Crushing on Chloe

I've been wanting to splurge and buy a Chloe "Faye" bag for a while now. The design is striking and timeless. It definitely represents my style with it's feminine features and gorgeous color options. I stopped in Barney's yesterday to stalk down my dream bag- i found it in mustard yellow which is fun for spring and timeless black. But I had my eyes and heart set on this oh-so gorgeous tan version.

The "Drew" bag is also another option that I've seen on style blogger's Instagram feeds. It comes in so many beautiful variations: this python and blush // black and pink // and adorable giraffe! 

I can't wait to bring home a new Chloe bag for spring! Which one is your favorite? 

You Don't Have To Show Skin For A Night Out

Location: Downtown Los Angeles, CA. 

Outfit details: Brandy Melville leather jacket (similar here, here), Zara beige shell crop top (similar), Anthropologie knit color blocked skirt (love this option), Topshop heels (bestseller right here.)  

Sometimes a little bit of mystery is the sexiest approach you can take. Whether you are going on a Tinder date or just hitting the town with your girls, it's fun to switch up those cleavage bearing dresses in lieu of a more sophisticated and blasé look. 

Beauty: 

I visited Sally Hershberger salon and saw the amazingly talented colorist, Bianca, before heading out. She added highlights and a gloss to my hair so it would be all shiny and vibrant! I definitely recommend getting a hair gloss done once a month in salon! I'm due for another. 

I also used Tarte Braziliance tanning lotion which is a staple for me! It doesn't smell all funky and the color is instant and dark, plus it comes out brown not orange. 

Since spring is right around the corner it's time to whip out those peep toed sandals and show off your tootsies. I love these Zimmerman heels, the color is so soft and feminine which is perfect for spring!  Or you can opt for the best-selling Steve Madden pair which I think just about everybody owns. 

Find the perfect night out skirt by assessing you can add to your wardrobe (or work with what you already have.) This pencil skirt is versatile for work and still curve hugging enough for a night out.

Behind The Scenes of a Feature Film

We were freezing our bums off so we went down to a tent with heaters and blankets! 

I've only been in LA a few months but I have an immense sense of self responsibility to make each day count. How often do you get to be young and working in film/tv?! I'm most thankful for my attitude, perseverance, and sense of direction that has landed me 3 feature films so far. I graduated from Loyola with a degree in advertising and public relations but my goal since I was a kid was to be in entertainment and a part of movies. I'm a natural performer, rarely get nervous (and if I do i hide it), I love the energy of being on set- it makes my life worth living. Mix that passion with a good attitude and the results will follow. I know it is silly to say, but I believe that thinking positively and having a driven outlook is what excelled me in such a short amount of time. My New Years goals are to keep up my positive daily check-in with myself, continue to feel blessed, and also ask myself what more can I be doing to ensure I'm successful. My other concrete goals are to sign with a top talent agency, be enrolled in acting classes continuously, and get my SAG card which requires 3 vouchers. I already have one!

I wanted to share my experience last week working on the feature film, Climate of Fear. I got to wear a couture gown (the rack of gowns was over $150,000!) and have my hair and make up done with a 1940's vibe. One of my favorite parts about shooting is the amazing people I meet! I always feel like I click right away with people in the industry who share that passion.

Beth look beautiful in pink! One of the few people I've met that I can talk about skincare with for so long and not have them nod off to sleep. 

This gown was so beautiful but ended up being a little too big! I loved twirling around in it!

I brought the book: Love, Style, Life by Garance Dore to read while in between takes and getting my makeup done. It's a great airplane read too if you are traveling over the holidays. 

I hope you enjoyed a little behind the scenes for the film I did last week! I am so excited for this year.  I also was approved for IMBD, I'll list all of the films I am in on there :)

Why You Need A Sexy Lace Up Top (Blogger Approved)

The winter weather in sunny California calls for different textures, but peep toe shoes are still a-okay. It seems like lace up tops are everywhere on Instagram and bloggers alike. I found this western lace up top from Brandy Melville and loved the suede texture and color of it. So LA. This suede top is only $7 and would look adorable with high waisted jeans. I also love this white and red lace up top that is 70's and perfect for bell bottoms and chunky heels.   The lived-in jeans are from Melrose Trading Post, which is a famous flea market that takes place every Sunday in LA. These One Teaspoon jeans make a great supplement if you are not in LA but still want to channel your laid back cool girl vibes. 

I was just browsing for shoes to share with you guys and nude lace up shoes popped up all over the internet for Spring 2016. So it looks like I am ahead ;) I actually bought these shoes a few years back at a Michael Kors sale but I think they are pretty timeless. I also love these, these, and ouu definitely these! 

Accessories are where you get to have a lot of fun. I basically collect handbags at this point, borderline hoard. But hey, they make me happy. I believe that your handbag ties the statement of your outfit together. This Aztec/embroidered bag makes my whole outfit feel western and boho. 

I'm looking forward to heading back to Michigan and Chicago this week until January. Finally get a change in weather and scenery! I get so antsy being in one place for too long. 

What are your holiday plans? Going anywhere cool? Comment below!
