Disneyland outfit









Top: Forever 21
Shorts: Banana Republic Outlet
Flats: Target
Hat: Target
Jacket: J.Crew (thrifted)
Belt: H&M
Bag: H&M

I look so tired in the third picture. Uhg. I woke up early because we went to Disneyland today. I definitely wore my white wide brimmed hat to protect myself from the sun and I wore the jacket only on the drive down. It was blistering in Anaheim and the weather did not warrant a jacket no matter how cute it was. I decided to use a split-complementary color scheme (red and lime-green) as described here. I love how it looked and I definitely plan on basing more outfits on color theory.

You're the sky that I fell through









Top: Forever 21 (worn backwards)
Shorts: Banana Republic Outlet
Sandals: Banana Republic Outlet
Bag: H&M (shown here)
Belt: Fossil Outlet
Necklace: J.Crew (gifted)
Watch: Timex (thrifted)

Today I didn't work until the late afternoon which meant I could dress how I pleased without having to worry about getting apple juice on my top or accidentally rubbing my pants on a tire as I load the kids into the car. Looking at this outfit as compared to my last, I see they are rather similar... but I guess I don't care. I'm wearing my old lady white sandals again and I just love them. I received a lot of compliments on this outfit today, however I couldn't decide if I looked too trendy or just classic with the high waisted shorts. The necklace is gorgeous and a Xmas gift from my mom. I once had an old lady in doctors office tell me to treasure this necklace for the rest of my life. The top is from Forever 21 and I wore it backwards. I felt like the embellishment on the shoulders looked better on the back, especially with the necklace. Oh, and the watch, which I didn't take a closeup of, I bought at Salvation Army. It actually doesn't work but I don't mind. I really love the look of it and figure no one actually can tell it doesn't work.

Aside from that, the weather is really annoying me. Yes, it's nice that it's finally warm here, but now all the fall collections are coming out and all I can think about is tweed, leather, boots and wooly tights. The end of summer is when I finally am pulling out all my skirts and shorts but it feels too late. Fall semester is starting for me on Saturday and I want to wear boots and coats to class. I have a feeling that we'll be having summer in October this year. Ugh.

New Blog

So this is my new fashion blog. I've been following fashion blogs for a while, and I feel like posting my outfits will give me a reason to be more creative with how I dress.







Close up of the earrings and ring:





Dress: Roni (boutique in NYC)
Belt: Forever 21
Sandals: BC
Earrings: Forever 21
Ring: Forever 21

I got the sandals from Endless.com during the 40% cash back and they were on sale. They were something like $18. I love them and have received so many compliments on them. Plus, they have a zipper back which I just love. The dress is from one of my favorite places in NYC. You have to go if you are in town. If you go to the Prince St location, ask for Alex. He is amazingly sweet and a wonderful associate. I just love him.
