argyle + print + flamingo legs

Today I realized I haven't worn a skirt or jeans in just forever. But  almost wore the exact same outfit again. Because of you, I tried something new. It will probably will be a smidge warmer, so I think it's a good choice :) A year ago, I would have been scared silly of this outfit, now I love it :)

 The last time I wore this dress I wore a necklace, but it always got caught in the fabric. Thus, I ditched the necklaces for a pair of lovely earrings today :)

I got this dress for a wedding dress rehearsal of one of my friend's. Speaking of which I'm a bridesmaid in her wedding, and i absolutely ADORE my dress. Amazingly comfortable and classy. [I just need to lay off the ice cream to make sure I still fit into it!]  I'm so glad I got this one. I need to stitch the straps [a bit loose], but otherwise I love this dress.

I love my outfit today. My room-mate always makes fun of me because my clothes are extremely wholesome. She is from the Netherlands and said that there is a church back home called the Black Stocking Church, who all wear really modest clothes. She said I should join, but that's pretty far to go for church. I would have a continual case of jet-lag and I'm just not prepared for that ;) If any of you watch/have seen Will & Grace, she is Karen and I am Grace.

It has been a really long time since I wore a dress [this one has pockets!!], months probably. I should definitely wear them more often, so easy to get dressed in the morning.

Layer Up!

Do you remember those horrible awful, slouchy black boots in my last post? I do. [unfortunately] Well, lucky for me, I have a fabulous mother and she bought me a new pair of boots. They aren't even fabric! Anyway....

I have seen the trend of tights and knee high socks for a long time now. Loved it since I first saw it. Strangely, though, I have never worn it. Well, yesterday after freezing my tootsies [spell check says tortoises] off, I decided to layer up this morning.

Mental note: TOMS are not acceptable footwear in the middle of January. They are now banished to my closet until spring shows its lovely face [hoping--quite delusionally--for March].

Also, I decided to change up my scarf tying abilities. Thanks to Jessica over at What I Wore, which is a fabulous blog I assure you.

Have you noticed that I love Target?

same sweater, different color

I told you. I love wearing newly purchased clothes. What girl doesn't? There is something so fun, new and fresh about it. Even if it is from Goodwill [which, sad to say, I haven't been in months]. My mom kind of laughed at my pink legs today. Ah well, the life of a fashionista. Yes, I just called myself that. The perils of having multiple blogs is that it gets to your head and absolutely ruins your humility. Not me of course. I am still completely devoid of pride. ANYwayyyyy....

white flowers, the II

i love this shirt I got at Target. The flowers sewed on makes it seem like I am wearing a huge brooch. It's quite fun. I loved my outift today, but there is nothing quite like changing out of Sunday clothes and into sweatpants :)
