Pink Tights, Polka Dot Shorts, & A Yellow Cardigan

By
I really liked this outfit! I think I've been missing wearing tights with shorts. This outfit is from Monday and it was a little too hot for my new pink tights once mid-afternoon hit, but oh well! I loved the combination of pink and yellow too. These polka dot shorts will definitely be worn many more times this fall now that I know how great they can look with tights.

shorts, belt, earrings: forever 21 | cardigan: mossimo - target | flats: xhileration - target | tights: kmart | t-shirt: Saddle-creek.com


I'm wearing my The Good Life shirt again, as you can see! It was sitting in my drawer for so long. It really needed to be worn.



These shoes are so ratty. I'm sorry. They're my comfy shoes. I also wear them if there's rain in the forecast because they were super cheap and they're made of some sort of plastic. Then I won't be sad if I ruin a pair of shoes. They don't look so bad from afar? That's my excuse.

This is probably my face 75% of the time. It's like happy, crazy, stage face. I like it?

Happy Wednesday everyone! I should probably get down to business and do some school work today. If I write it here that means it has to come true, right? I'm picking classes for next semester today and I'm scared to see what my schedule will be like. At least I'll know soon!

It sure has been a unique week already. I'm really hoping the rest of this week goes smoothly. School is going smoothly as of right this minute, but I'm just waiting for another week that's awful. It'll be here soon enough, I know it! So I'm enjoying being a little bit lazy right now.

Adios!

I love the pink tights..... and those shorts are so adorable....... almost as adorable as your lovely smile

Your enthusiasm is so wonderful..

I've been wearing mostly black tights with my shorts, but I'm very very tempted to wear those wonderful pink tights.

I've done ballet all my life (I'm a guy), and I"m fine with wearing tights in public..... as a guy.

I love your blog

I love the bright colors you mixed together here! The berry and mustard are lovely together. And of course, that darling polka dot skirt pulls the entire thing together. Such an easy look for campus, but I love it!

I love these shorts a whole lot - especially with that color of tights. I need to try the whole tights and short thing soon. Make the summer wardrobe last longer. :)

Hope your next semester schedule turns out awesome!

You have the cutest bun!

I recently had to retire my mustard yellow cardigan. I wore it so much it was starting to get holes everywhere. :\ So now I'm on the hunt for another one.

Yours is way cute! :)

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...
