Must Have of the Week: Rolling Stones Tee
I'm a total sucker for a great band tee - my closet is stuffed with AC/DC, Blondie, and Ramones shirts. So what makes this Rolling Stones t-shirt from Urban Outfitters so spectacular?
Glad you asked.

Summer's most famous week kicked off last night on the Discovery Channel. To celebrate why not try out this fun cap featuring none other than the elegant shark itself?

Must Have of the Week: Gold iPod Shuffle
This week's must have isn't a piece of clothing or a pair of shoes. Nope! It's this little guy.
About a week ago, after days of contemplating, I made the decision to purchase a gold iPod shuffle from the Apple store for $49, an item that many probably haven't given a thought for years, since purchasing their multi-functional phones.
With a smart phone that can hold thousands of songs, why would someone need this itsy-bitsy music player? Let me tell you.
Soon, I will be traveling with my school to Europe and I wanted a device other than my phone to play music on, as not to exhaust my phone's battery. At the same time, I didn't want to spend the amount of money that it would cost to buy a brand new phone on something I might not use everyday. To me, that just wasn't logical.
After I made the decision that I was in the market for a new music playing device, I came to the conclusion that I would prefer it to be small, making it perfect for packing in my carry-on. These few factors led me to the iPod Shuffle.
Style wise, I chose the gold because I found it to be the most chic option. Engraving on the back was free so I chose to have "Carpe Diem MMXVI" imprinted as a way of memorializing my upcoming trip.
All in all, the iPod shuffle might not be for everyone, but for the purpose of travel I think it will be great. I have only had it for a few days now and I'm already in love. Its functions are fairly basic but for a long flight it will be perfect for me.

Must Have of the Week: Madewell Denim Popover Shirt
It's safe to say I have Spring Fever. Here in Massachusetts we've been experiencing some unseasonably warm weather and it has made me all the more excited for the upcoming change of seasons.
This week's Must Have is a denim popover shirt from my new favorite shop, Madewell.
I first fell in love with the top online while I was checking out their sale items. Originally $78, now $49.99, this top is perfect for spring.
First off, the light wash denim looks crisp and light. Unlike darker denims, which can sometimes read more edgy, the top's color is perfect for a classic meets modern look.
Second, the cut of the top is great. Different than the other denim button-up shirts I own, the popover style of this shirt feels chic and breezy - ideal for springtime.
Love this top as much as I do? You can purchase one here!

Must Have of the Week: Spiral Bobby Pins
This week I've been loving spiral bobby pins. I've been wearing my hair up in a messy bun a lot lately and regular bobby pins just weren't cutting it. While at the store I picked up a pack of spiral bobby pins thinking I'd give them a try. They worked even better than I had expected them to. They make my messy bun feel secure and they're virtually effortless to use. All you have to do is create the hairstyle of your choice and then twist the pins in, ta-da! your hair is ready for the day.
Pick up these Goody Spin Pins here.

Must Have of the Week: Forever 21 Necklace
During the Summer I usually don't wear a lot of jewelry. My everyday heart pendant, some simple stud earrings, and the rings I wear all the time is enough for me when the weather is warm. Because of this, I buy way less jewelry during the Summer than any other season. The other day while strolling around Forever 21 I spotted this unique necklace and really liked it. Although it was inexpensive at only $4.80, I chose to pass that day but when I saw it for a second time at another Forever 21 (and liked it just as much) I chose to buy it. Turns out, I actually love this necklace for Summer. It has plenty of sparkle but it is still light enough for hot weather. I love it!

Must Have of the Week: American Eagle Tanks
I don't know about you guys but it has been HOT out where I live. Thanks to a recent mall visit I have found a fashionable and affordable solution, these fun and bright tanks from American Eagle. Don't judge me but I bought nearly every color and pattern these tanks come in. They're just too perfect. I like their unique high neckline, light material, and summer ready prints. My favorite is white with a purple, green, and blue floral graphic (shown above). The fact that I only paid $7 for each tank due to the huge sale they were having only sweetens the deal.
Pick up one of these awesome tanks (or two) here.

Must Have of the Week: Steve Madden Sandals
These Steve Madden sandals are perfect for the upcoming warm months. They can go casual or dressy depending on what they're styled with. Their neutral tan color makes them very easy to pair with other clothing in your closet. The heel is chunky enough where it is still practical for everyday but it will give you the added height like a pair of heels would. These shoes would be a great way to upgrade your favorite summer sandals.
Pre-order a pair of these sandals here.

Must Have of the Week: Red Sox Hat
Baseball season is in full swing and winter is coming to a close. Fenway's season opener was last Friday so I feel as though a Red Sox hat would be an appropriate must have this week. I have been wanting this exact hat for so long. A snapback is the perfect replacement for winter's beanies. First off, they're super cute and secondly, they're perfect for hiding bad hair days. I love this one because it will go with a good portion of my wardrobe and its a stylish way to rep my beloved Boston.
Represent you favorite baseball team (as long as its not the Yankees, just kidding) with a stylish snapback.
You can buy this one here.

Must Have of the Week: American Eagle Jumpsuit
Springtime is almost here... maybe. I know that's hard to believe when there's still plenty of snow on the ground. I don't know about you but I've been obsessing over jumpsuits lately and I want one so bad. I love the boho vibe they give off and I think they'd look great paired with some gold jewelry, a leather jacket, and a pair of wedges. Unfortunately, I haven't found the perfect jumpsuit for me yet but I do love this one from American Eagle. It's chic and casual at the same time and I think the pattern is great. I'm looking forward to stopping into AE and trying it on!

Must Have of the Week: American Eagle Coat
Fur and faux fur coats have been very popular the past few months and many celebrities like Vanessa Hudgens, Miley Cyrus, and Lana Del Rey have been seen rocking them. This week's must have from American Eagle is a fun and edgy version of the typical fur coat. What's great about it is that it's faux leather sleeves add some edge and make it more wearable while the faux shearling will keep you warm. I would love to have this coat in my closet.
