I'm loving my awkward dancing pose in the above picture. I never know what sorts of pictures of myself to expect when Jeanie takes them. Usually me doing some strange dance or posing with trees.


I hadn't worn this pin yet even though I've had it about a year. I'm trying to start incorporating the pins I have into my wardrobe. I find it difficult to accessorize sometimes simply because I have so many options.  This one is made of some sort of porcelain so it's pretty fragile. But it's so cute and happy!


I realize now that I should have pinned the straps shorter than I had them. I'm very short-waisted so the top part is a little too big and bags up on me a bit. Oh well!

Only a couple days until the Harry Potter premiere! I'm getting so excited. Jeanie and I are going to the midnight show and we're planning some Hogwarts costumes. Be prepared!

Have lots of fun at the midnight showing! I had a group of friends go see the midnight showing for the last movie and we all made shirts that said Hallows or Horcruxes? on the back. The on the front of the shirts each of the 7 girls had a horcrux and the 3 guys had hallows. We thought we were witty haha.

Unfortunately I can't make it to the midnight show for this one :( So I'll have to wait til Saturday or Sunday to see it.

I hope it's amazing!

P.S. I love your pin.

I love your little pin! It looks adorable! I think adding pins is fun. I got a bunch of them from my grandma who had a really wacky jewelry collection. Now I wear one almost every day!

Hooray for HP costumes! Make sure to post a pic! :)

I love the pinafore style and the colour. I'm not a Potter fan but all of my housemates are dying for it to be friday so they can make their pilgrimage to see the end of this glorious journey :)

Oh your little broach is just so pretty. And I like the style of the shoes too. I can't believe they are from Kmart. What a great find.

Kmart makes bongo? I'm going to have to get myself in there. How long ago was it? You look great.

This is so cute! I love how old school it feels. And I quite like the first pose. Posing might be the most awkward part. I'm always, "where do I put my hands? what am i supposed to do with my face?"

This is so great, those floral overalls are sooo wonderful!
Some days it takes me so long just to get a few decent pitures because I look ridiculous in every one

Work Outfit: Light Blue Jersey Knit Dress and White Block Heels

By

I'm a big fan of what I call "pajama dresses," which are really just jersey knit skater dresses . They're comfortable enough to sleep in, yet can look 100% put-together if styled nicely. That's exactly what I did with this light blue dress California-based shop Tobi sent me to style. (Someone even asked me why I was dressed so nice at the dog park! I told them I just came from work, of course.) For the debut of my newest pajama dress, I added my silvery beaded Stella and Dot necklace and a pair of white block heel sandals from Forever 21. I actually bought the shoes back in December on sale and had to wait for it to warm up to finally wear them. Happily, they're comfortable enough to walk back and forth to work, which is really all I can ask in a pair of cheap shoes.  daydreaming skater dress : c/o tobi | shoes : forever 21 | necklace: stella & dot | sunglasses: forever 21 Check out more from Tobi:  shorts  |  jewelry  |  casual dresses ...

Botanical Fun

These pictures are from my outing to The State Botanical Garden of Georgia, which just so happens to be conveniently located about 8 minutes from my apartment. There were still a nice amount of flowers blooming so it was really pretty. I decided I needed to get more wears out of my pretty Steal the Game Show dress from Modcloth so I took some inspiration from other bloggers and wore it as a skirt! I actually really liked how this outfit turned out. Plus it was easy to walk around in all day because I wore nice, comfy Keds. dress (worn as a skirt): Modcloth.com blouse, belt, bag: thrifted cardigan: ann taylor loft; thrifted shoes: keds sunglasses: kohls earrings: forever 21 I quite enjoyed my brightly colored nails. They're China Glaze Papaya Punch with an accent nail of Electrify from the Capitol Colours collection. I've been loving having the whole Capitol Colours collection. Especially since it's Hunger Games themed. If there...

Leather Scalloped Skirt, Polka Dots, & Orange Tights

Happy weekend everyone! I just had the most lazy weird Friday ever, so I'm updating later than usual. I basically slept on and off since class got done at noon. I know, I'm pretty exciting. This outfit was fun today though! I wore my leather skirt that we recently DIY scallop hemmed. I may post a little tutorial of sorts on how to do that, but it's pretty self explanatory. I like that the skirt is a little shorter now. It still squeezes my insides right at the waist, but it's more comfortable now that I'm having a few skinny months. Leather just doesn't have any give! Oh well, it looks cool. skirt, top, shoes: thrifted | tights, earrings, hair bow: forever21.com  I got to pull out my bag of long-sleeved tops and sweaters and such today. It's finally cool in the morning so the extra arm covering was welcome. Plus it was almost like Christmas getting to pull out my warm-weather-only clothes after all this time!  I always love when I real...
