Red Dress, Zebra Print, & Shaking My Head at Uptalkers

By
I've been having a fine ol' time in the Land of Lincoln! We just make our rounds to the relatives/friends and visit. It's more exciting than sitting on the couch! Plus I have a reason to get dressed in real clothes each day since I actually have to leave the house and see people. If I know I'm not going anywhere at all and I'm at home I'll put on comfy pajama clothes for the whole day. It's a shameful secret, but it's not really a secret. Also, I'm not really ashamed. Being lazy in the summer is kind of my thing? (Yes, read that with an upward inflection. Speaking of upward inflections: Uptalkers. Those people who say everything like it's a question. Just imagine me shaking my head right now because that's what I'm doing.)

These are my clothes:

dress: modcloth.com
cardigan, hair bow: forever 21
shoes: xhileration - target
belt: thrifted
necklace: from Italy



Hello! I'm smiling right at you in this picture! Creepilyish. 

Happy Friday everyone!

I saw that dress on Modcloth and really really really wanted to buy it, but didn't. It looks so lovely on you! I always laze about in my pjs (that's what I'm doing right now) and I'm proud of it :D

Haha! That last "creepilyish" smiling picture is adorable! And you look so pretty. I am in love with that dress.
I know uptalkers. It's like they never want to make a statement because someone might disagree with them. ;)

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...
