Back in April my lovely pal Nancy from Spiffykerms.com and I took a little trip to Stanford University. Located in Palo Alto this campus is so huge it’s like its own city!
It was such a beautiful day so Nancy and I took our time walking around the campus and ended up at the Stanford Arches. I am not sure which part of the campus this is but it’s an area with gorgeous architecture. I love exploring places that have a lot of history and Stanford is definitely one of those places. I felt like I had been transported back in time.
Here’s my outfit of the day! Please ignore my super awkward stance. Clearly I am not used to having full body photos taken of me. I look like a statue haha!
What I wore:
- Dress: Forever 21 Embroidered Sheer-Woven Shift Dress (exact)
- Shoes: Aldo wedges (similar)
- Purse: Michael Kors Fulton Crossbody Bag (exact)
Right after this photo was taken Nancy and I started dancing, squealing and goofing around not realizing that the classroom to the left was full of students. And the windows were open. They were all staring at us and I’m pretty sure you could hear a pin drop. Then we ran away. So yeah, that happened.
We could have spent the whole day roaming around this campus. Nancy loves palm tress (I swear she was a Californian in another life) and lucky for her there were palm trees as far as the eye could see.
I can’t imagine going to school every day at a campus like that. It must be wonderful to go to a school that is so beautiful and full of history. If you are ever in the Bay Area be sure to stop by and check it out!
Have you visited any prestigious or Ivy League Universities? Let me know in the comments!

You look so cute here! That campus looks gorgeous. I think it would be hard to study though with all that sunshine!
