Backless Cat Print Dress over a Lace Polka Dot Blouse

By
It's already Monday again! Last week went by so quickly. I wore this outfit for running errands and shopping. A former style blogger, Kate, sent me this awesome cat print dress because she was cleaning out her closet. I'm pretty pumped about the evil cat print on it and the low v-back. (The cat print is evil because some of them have little red eyes!) Sometimes low backs like these are a pain, but I made the dress work with a regular bra by layering a sheer blouse underneath. It also added a little bit of print mixing!

dress: modcloth | blouse: kohl's | shoes: bongo - kmart | earrings: gift from Matt | red hair bows: forever 21


I plan on spending a lot of this week reading the massive amount of library books I checked out on Friday. It will be most enjoyable! Happy Monday!

Haha, evil cat print, now that's pretty darn awesome! I can totally see the dastardly little red eyes--rad, dude. Rad.

I adore that lace top underneath--especially the collar. It goes with your dress so well!

Ah, this is such a good idea! I always shy away from low backs because I can't get away with not wearing a bra, but I love how this top looks under this! Definitely going to try this.

And how nice that you were gifted this dress, it's adorable!

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.
