Outfit: Leopard Print Peplum Skirt, Yellow Blouse, and Clear Studded Sandals

By
Happy Labor Day! I hope you had a fantastic weekend! I wore this outfit a couple weeks back. I wanted to style this leopard print peplum skirt in a new way since I hadn't worn it in a while so this is what I came up with. It's nothing too special but I really like these spiked sandals whenever I wear them. Something about the clear straps makes them feel futuristic.

In other news I had a great weekend at Dragon Con. Today's festivities go on until around 6 but I'm not sure when we're heading home. It's been a tiring but really fun weekend. I'll tell you all about it and show you the costumes I wore in another post. (Possibly Friday?) Check out my Instagram page for sneak peeks if you can't wait until then! 


top, skirt: forever 21 | shoes: boohoo | bow: handmade






Did you have a good weekend too? Is it starting to feel like fall where you are? It's not here! My costumes felt like they were melting onto my skin all weekend. Thanks Georgia! So I'm super jealous of you if you're wearing comfy fall-ish clothes already. 

Anyway, have a great rest of your Monday!

Aw, does your bow have dinosaur skeletons? So cute! I am enjoying how you have worn the leopard print, I find Leopard print really hard to wear. I'm loving it with your mustard top!

I love mustard and leopard print together - great choice! Unfortunately, in the UK it's been autumn from pretty much the start of August... I'm already into my jumper pile this year...

I really like clear shoes, these ones a pretty great! I do love that bow as well!

It was so close to looking like fall, but the suns seems to have come back out and it's a bit warmer again. Fine by me!

Looking forward to seeing your costumes :)

This outfit is super cute! It's funny that you think the shoes are futuristic, because the little bow and the leopard print actually remind me of Pebbles of the Flintstones :) Dragon Con sounds like it was fun -- loved your photos on instagram!

Fall clothes are in my dreams right now. That's about as close as I'll probably be getting in awhile. Lol.

And seriously, I've never seen leopard print dressed up in such a classy way. The peplum cut of it helps, but I seriously have an issue with leopard print because I feel like it can be so overpowering so easily. But you totally are rocking it, grrrl!

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...
