Argyle Sweater with a Red Skirt, Striped Tights, & Beret

By
Happy Friday everyone! Congratulations on surviving the apocalypse. It was tough work, I know.

I wore this outfit the other day for some relative-visiting and mall-shopping. Apparently wearing a beret means I look French. My grandma said I looked like 40's France. I love my berets though and feel like I should wear them more often. Wearing a hat always brightens my day a little bit.

How do you like my little carriage earrings? They were Mom's, but she gave them to me. I actually think they're supposed to be Christmas earrings, so I usually wait until this season to wear them. This whole outfit was kind of festive with the argyle sweater and bright red skirt. I could have worn it for celebrating Christmas on Sunday over at my grandparents', but I wore this same skirt there for Christmas two years ago. Not that anybody else would notice, but I would know!





I'll probably update at some point this weekend, but if not have a great one!

Oh my, your hair is absolutely gorgeous - I love the colour of it! And those earrings are adorable :') I completely get what you mean about wearing the same clothes even when others won't remember - I always feel paranoid! ♥

I am such a huge fan of those earrings! What a cute festive outfit, I love it!
Berets are A-OK in my book.

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.
