I know I'm going to the polar opposite as far as my favorite (gothic) color scheme as of late, but stay with me on this one. This little crepe tee dress from Missguided is kinda the sh*t. Who knew white could be so cool??? You know those summer days when you wake up to thirty "are you almost here??!" texts because you're already twenty minutes late for brunch? Yeah, this is what you throw on for those "rare" occurrences when you literally have 4.5 minutes until your uber arrives. Here I paired the simple shift dress with classic sneakers to tone down any potential girly vibes. (don't want anyone thinking I'm feminine or something now...) What can I say, tomboy for life. Even in a little white dress.

If you've been following my blog/instagram/tumblr for any extended period of time you know how much I love leather. Jackets, bags, bralettes and my latest leather obsession: pull on, athletically-inspired shorts. This little pair of vegan leather "soccer shorts" by lovers + friends are my new favorite. Slouchy pockets with cool perforated detailing makes these the perfect alternative to denim cut offs for cooler summer days.

Stripes to signify the finish line are more than appropriate with finals this coming week. I've recently become weirdly super obsessed with skinny, horizontal stripes. Theres just something so effortlessly cool and chic at the same time when you see a chick wearing stripes. Blame it on my fascination with stereotypical portrayal of a chic french woman in stripes, a blunt chin-length bob and red lip stick. Or maybe it has something to do with the sleep-deprived, delirium I've been walking around in for the past two weeks. Between papers, group projects from hell and final exams next week; stripes have been looking hella great to me. Pair a looser fit striped top with low-slung cutoffs for simple, cali-girl cool vibes. The sweet little drawstring pouch, heeled sandal-bootie hybrid and light weight sunnies don't hurt either.

Ayyyyy slouchy jeans, a simple button up and ankle booties. Yup, just a typical Rima Rama Sunday look. I'm in love with this new pair of "mum" jeans by Blank NYC. High waisted, slightly cropped and comfy as F.  I'll definitely be wearing these well into late summer paired with little lacey tanks. Is it weird that I'm kinda really looking forward to hot August evenings??

Yeah, I know summer is right around the corner and ankle booties are not exactly "in season," but f**k it. I'm totally crushing hard on h by hudson booties right now. All perfectly slouchy with cool detailing. They are the perfect ankle height that won't chop off your legs if you pair them with bare stems (summer essential ayy.) Be that one cool chick this spring by pairing lived in ankle booties with your looks instead of going with the jank birk trend. A pair of destroyed bf jeans and an oversized white tee with these babies throw ultimate #coolgirlvibes
