A Super Patriotic Overalls & Striped T-shirt Outfit

By
Happy Independence Day! I'm so excited about this super patriotic-looking outfit. I borrowed these overall shorts from Jeanie's closet to be super comfy the other day. The outfit turned into this slightly updated Rosie the Riveter getup. And I like it!

It's no secret I love to wear blue and red together. This makes it super easy to throw together many patriotic ensembles during the first week of July. I would wear this any other time during the summer too, but I thought it was super appropriate to share it on the 4th of July!

overalls: route 66 - thrifted | striped t-shirt: forever 21 | shoes: cherokee - target | scarf: thrifted | sunglasses: kohl's

So... It's appropriate to wear both red and blue makeup for themed outfits, right? Or whenever I feel like it. Either way. I always forget I have this bright blue eyeliner. I wore it for the 4th last year, so I guess it's my patriotic eyeliner. 

This was seriously such a comfy outfit. I hadn't worn bibs since the 90s. Not that I can recall. I'm pumped that they're making an appearance again. Also my Target kids' shoes. Could there be a pair of shoes more perfect for this holiday? I don't think so. (Wear a size 8 1/2 or under? You can fit in these. Go see if there's a pair at your Target! I just saw them on sale for $10.)

I hope you're having a fantastic holiday (if it applies to you)! It's supposed to be stormy today so I don't think we'll be spending any time outside, but I'm sure it'll still be a nice holiday.

Happy Thursday!

Gurllll you look so good! I am not a fan of this overalls trend but you have me thinking otherwise! You pull them off the right way. And your eye liner; ahhh, only you could make blue look that good <3

You are SO cute! I love the overalls on you, and the striped top! And your blue eyeliner is amazing. I think I need to start building a good collection of colored liquid liners; they're so fun, and more modern than basic black.
Happy Fourth of July!

Wow, your eyeliner is really neat! That totally shouldn't be my first observation of the awesome outfit, but I am seriously jealous of your steady hand. I also love the dungarees shorts. I had a dungarees dress that I worn to death and had to be thrown out due to holes and now I want to find another one all over again.

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.
