Outfit: Maroon Patterned Mini Skirt, High Neck Sleeveless Top, & Gold Loafers

By
I wore this a little while back and am just now getting to posting it! I'm not thrilled with the pictures, but that's just what happens sometimes. I decided to remix my newest matching set and wear the skirt with a mock turtleneck top. This is what I mean about this matching separates trend being so versatile! I'm thinking I need to pair either the skirt or top with something yellow next time. 


top: target | skirt: forever 21 | loafers: target | bracelet: vintage






And just for good measure: this is what happens when I can't come up with any new poses. It's so attractive!


Can we talk about how fast this summer is flying by? How is it already after the 4th of July? The sad thing is once July hits every store decides it's fall time and takes out all the warm weather clothes. Newsflash Georgia: it doesn't get even cool outside here until at least November. I need clothes I won't melt in! Fortunately I have a large wardrobe so I probably don't need to acquire anything new, but still. It's the principle. July isn't fall. It just turned into technical summer. End rant.

Have a happy middle of your week!

I love mixing skirt sets! The printed skirt looks very chic with the black top. Also, that last pic is great :)

Looking gooood Jamie! Loving that last photo, haha. I get your frustrations with the stock in stores, as I've thought about the same when I went shopping earlier this week. However, mother nature found the perfect solution: she turned to fall! Rain, wind and chilly temperatures included. I wore my boots out yesterday... xo

Aw, your new hair is amazing. It really suits you!! I'd never have the courage to cut so much off but it is tempting when I see yours!

I hate when photos don't turn out quite how you thought and you don't realize til you get home and its too late. If its any consolation I think they look great! Also Im with you on the stores and clothes except in reverse I live in Chicago where it still is barely thatttt warm, like today was pretty mild at 70 and it can snow all the way up til April and we need those warm clothes in stores for as long as possible but of course it doesn't happen that way.

These pictures look great! Don't even sweat it. I know what you mean about taking pictures and not liking them exactly--I'm always thinking some of mine aren't up to par with previous ones and thus I tend to not get as experimental with new locations and yeah. I rambled.

ANYWAY that skirt is adorable and you look GR8 miss Jamie :D

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...

Don't Dream It

...be it! I love a good performance of the Rocky Horror Picture Show. We went to see the live shadow cast Lips Down on Dixie perform at the Plaza Theatre in Atlanta. It was awesome, as always! This is Jeanie and her friend Leslie before they got their lipstick Rocky virgin V's on their foreheads. Leslie even got the honor of holding the criminologist's book during a part of the show. Pretty ballin'. Butt shot! Yes, those are heels I have on with leopard print pajamas. It was a take on Columbia in the touch-a touch me scene. The real pj's are stripes, but this is what I had! I did have the mickey ears and crazy makeup though, so it counts. [How fun would it be to wear one of those costumes for Halloween?] I always enjoy this show. I don't think I could keep the smile off my face. It's just so fun! Sometime soon I'll go back, for sure. If you're in the area you should definitely check them out. They put on a great sho...
