Gift Exchanging: Jeanie Style

By
Since I posted my outfit for the holiday gift exchange yesterday, I figured it was appropriate to post my sister's outfit today! George is looming in these pictures too. He makes pictures so much cuter though, so I won't complain.
dress: modcloth.com
boots: urban outfitters
belt: thrifted


I don't think I would've picked out this Modcloth dress if I'd just seen it online, but Jeanie did and I really like it. It's a unique greenish neutral and the lace is really pretty. I enjoy the owl belt she paired with it too.

Jeanie is pondering what gift she would end up with at the gift exchange. [It was Christmasopoly. We're going to play it one of these nights. Can you play Monopoly with two people?]

It's been incredibly warm here for December. The high today is 71. Yes, 71 degrees. People are wearing shorts. At least, that's what I hear through the Facebook grapevine as I haven't left the house today. I like to place random lazy days among all my days off over the break.

Today I plan on tasting one of every cookie my mom bakes. I'll probably break out The Sims 3 too since I haven't played a video game since the summer. Right now I'm catching up on blogs and watching Like Mike with Jeanie. Did you know Jonathan Lipnicki [who plays Lil Bow Wow's best friend in this movie and is the little kid in Stuart Little] is my age? That blew my mind. I'm only eight days older than him. Thank you IMDB for expanding my useless knowledge database!

Happy Friday!

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...

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 ...

Outfit: Concert Tee, Black Denim Mini Skirt, Pink Tights, and White Converse

Here I am wearing a concert t-shirt again. At this point I'm not sure I'll ever stop wearing them. Maybe when I'm 70 I won't wear them with bright pink tights and white wedge Converse, but really, who knows? Maybe we'll all be dressing like Zenon : Girl of the 21st Century by then. (I can only hope.) And if I really take a look at this outfit, all I need is a colorful vest and I may as well have come off the space station. They really liked vests in that movie. I guess they don't need sleeves when everything's climate controlled? It is, however, not climate controlled outside in Atlanta. These pictures are from a couple months ago but it still hasn't reliably warmed up here yet. Also, my hair is now completely different since I had it chopped off again into an asymmetrical pixie a couple weeks ago.
