Tights, Tights, Glorious Tights!

By
It was finally cool enough this morning to break out a pair of tights. It was pretty exciting. Later on it was a little too warm for them, but oh well! They're a pretty cool pair that I got last Christmas. I like the glittery faux back-seam.

Anyway, here's my choice for my first official fall-ish outfit of the season:

tights, skirt, cardigan, bow: forever 21 | top: kmart | shoes: vintage - thrifted | necklace: stella & dot






And just to finish things off, here's me and a spiky bush:

Well I'm thoroughly exhausted already on this Monday evening. I can't decide whether to drink some coffee or go to bed early. I usually get so much more school work done at night, it's hard to turn in early...but it's also very tempting...

Happy Monday everyone!

Love those tights! Is it really fall? Crazy! I broke out my OTK socks today and could barely believe I wasn't sweating for once! Love the cardigan too!

Those stockings are fab! I wore sparkly blue stockings to uni today; we're in Spring here in Australia and it may be one of the last times I can wear them until next year! :) Hooray for sparkles. xo xo Laura

i LOVE that skirt - so fun and adorable. i really love ruffles. i can't believe it's tight seasons - the glittery back seam in yours is really neat - i haven't truly broke out the tights yet. and i always got more school work done during the day myself - but afternoon!

Love your tights!. Love your style! Love your smile!.
I'm a guy who's into fashion and dance....been in ballet since I was 5...... probably affected me a bit too much....so I love tights myself.
I'm in Europe this fall, and am using the opportunity to dress in the hippest European style, of short denim shorts with tights. I sooooo want yours.
I have long hair, and am rather small for a guy, so I guess I confuse many.... but it's been wonderful.
Love those seams....... and you're gorgeous

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.
