Backless Cat Print Dress with Holographic Flats

By
It's Monday already again! Here's an outfit that's absolutely perfect for muggy Georgia summers. It's kind of magical having no fabric touching your back. You should try it. Though I had to deal with a stick-on bra for this look so maybe it was less carefree than it looks. I absolutely love the back of this cat print dress despite the need for some crazy backless bra situation. Honestly I wish the front of the dress was as flattering as the back. I make it work for the cool back and fun print though. 

This is the first time I wore this dress without a layer underneath. You can see how I styled it last Halloween and with a lace top underneath. This time I let the dress be worn as intended and paired my super cool holographic flats with it.

dress: modcloth | shoes: forever 21 | bracelet: premier designs







Did you do anything fun this weekend? I was sick again. Seriously. It's like I graduated and my immune system was like, "you don't need me anymore! Bye!" Though my nearly nocturnal sleep schedule could be a contributing factor to my suppressed immunity...

Anyway, I hope you're all having a nice start to your week!

I love that dress, although I myself always stray away from backless numbers because of the bra situation thats created. I could never go without a bra, so how is the backless bra? I feel like it would fall down….
I can't imagine summer in the south, I want to visit Georgia, actually was debating a road trip there and I even almost moved to New Orleans for school for the fall but then I don't think I could handle the heat or humidity.

Aah no, not more sicknesses! That's strange how you just started to get sick after college like that. Guess it's some kinda weird post-stress-sickness thing. XD

That dress is fantastic though!

Argh as much as I love cat prints, I think my favorite part of that dress is the hem. I love the white material sticking out at the bottom!

When I wasn't locked up my room watching new OITNB episodes, I went to a local art show this weekend. Go being only a little bit productive. Lol.

Very cute! Yeah, I'm always too scared/lazy to try one of those bras...but the back of the dress is wonderful!

I find it super weird to wear a bra even slightly out of the regular style. I like it looks great in the photos, and the print is adorable!
Maybe it's about getting the perfect, stick on bra. Or no bra ;)

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...
