Featured Lady of the Month! Camilla & Me

Meet Camee aka PopTart (well that’s what I call her at least)! A small town girl with big fashion dreams. Bringing Minnesota nice to the Big Apple has given her a huge appreciation for small town living but also has opened her eyes to bigger ideas and a plethora of fashion trends and the freedom to experiment and stretch her unique self. I’ve had the pleasure of knowing this lovely lady for over 7 years. Since spring is right around the corner (we hope here in Minnesota) here are a few favorites from Camilla & Me, followed by a  little Q&A.

 

Matching separates; those of you who have trouble putting together outfits this look is for you.  Whether you prefer shorts or pants this is a great day to night look.

 

Pastels; what better to say spring then a beautiful pastel!  Now this sometimes is over done in my book, nobody wants to look like an Easter bunny basket.  Whether it’s a top or bottom it is best to let one item stand out.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

No collar jackets; with a pair of pumps this is a great way to dress up a casual outfit and a perfect jacket for spring.  Jackets are one item (along with shoes) that you can never have too many of.

 

Boho chic; flowing skirts, crocheted tops, floppy hats, turquoise jewelry, and wide leg pants all things I can’t get enough of this year.  Places like Urban Outfitters and Anthropology are great spots to get this look.

Q & A TIME!

Q: When and why did you start or take the leap with this fashion blogging adventure?

A: I started Camilla and Me 2 months ago but worked on getting it started long before that.  Fashion has always been a love of mine and people are always asking me where I get my clothes or how I put together an outfit.  At first this was something I wanted to do as a hobby but the more I put into it and the more feedback people give me the more I want this to become something bigger.

Q: What’s the best advice you’ve been given?

A: “Listen to advice but make the decision with your own common sense”. Every adventure I have taken people think they know what is best for me and I am learning I need to just trust myself because ultimately I am the one living with the decision so I should be the one making it. It sounds so simple but I have found learning to trust yourself is so much harder than trusting someone else.

Q: What do you splurge on?

A: Shoes and bags
