May 26th is the anniversary of MyLifeConsistsofStyle and this year we celebrate the 3rd birthday of when I first started this blog.
I was a freshman in High School and just had a passion for all things fashion and beauty related. My idols were Bobbi Brown and Rachel Zoe. I loved to go shopping, read books by Bobbi Brown and Rachel Zoe, read magazines and paint my nails.
I am now a senior in High School awaiting graduation in a little less than a month and not much has changed. I still dream of meeting my idol, Bobbi Brown and maybe one day getting a makeup lesson from her. I met Rachel Zoe in June of freshman year, and I would love to meet her again.
Here's to three incredible years on MyLifeConsistsofStyle and to many more, thank you for reading!

I love mixing floral print with leather, it transforms the whole look from soft and feminine to edgy and bad-ass. I do think I could have used a little black liner to help enhance the look though.
I am wearing a printed Free People Voile and Lace Trapeze Slip with a black long sleeve shirt underneath. Over the dress I am wearing a black leather vest and for shoes I wore my black Superga sneakers.

Monday's are so drab, but with a little color in your outfit your mood and outlook on the day can instantly change.
Today, I am wearing an Empire Extreme Shirt Dress by Free People with black Birkenstock's. This dress comes in three different colors and I am wearing the multi color combination. I really love the bright, vivid color and pattern on this dress. It is something I don't normally go for, but I think that is why I was drawn to it. My black leather Birkenstock's add an extra bohemian feel to the look and help to tie the whole outfit together.

The weather has been cool these past couple of days so yesterday I decided to wear a lightweight black & white plaid Free People top (SHOCK), with skinny jeans, and my Michael Kors Nikko sneaker wedges.
This top has cool cutouts in the front of the shoulders (see pictures below) that are connected by thin pieces of fabric. It adds a cool edgy vibe to the top. I really love this top because it can be styled multiple ways. You can wear it with the buttons open or closed, with leggings or with jeans, with sneakers or boots. This top can make an outfit look really tough and edgy.

Today the weather was beautiful and the wind had a slight chill that felt really great when I drove home today with my windows rolled down.
Shock. Elyssa's wearing Free People, yet again.
My outfit today consisted of cropped jeans, a navy Free People top, and Michael Kors Nadine sneakers.
