Work Outfit: Blue Floral Curved Hem Shift Dress with Nude Peeptoe Heels

Work Style Royal Blue Curved Hem Floral Dress Layered Necklace Nude Shoes

This vibrant blue floral shift dress is a new purchase from Boohoo that I picked up during a 50% off sale. When it got here I was worried it was way too loose but it ended up looking great once styled. Plus a loose fit is a comfy change from my usual fit and flare silhouette. Sometimes it's nice to change things up and try new shapes! The more I look at the pictures of this outfit, the more I want to wear it immediately again. 

How should I style this dress next time? I'm sure it could be belted but the loose shift style is something I'm feeling lately. Maybe black tights and boots when it cools down?

How has your weekend been? We're hanging out watching the Olympics right now and spent a good portion of today working on planning costumes for Dragon Con. Yesterday was my sister's birthday so we went to a brewery and had a delicious dinner afterward. If you follow me on Instagram, you probably saw some "Instagram Stories" from the brewery. 

I'm really enjoying the Instagram stories even though it's pretty much just like Snapchat. For me, the network value is already there to encourage me to use it, whereas I don't have a whole lot of Snapchat followers. (If you do want to follow me there, my username is JahmieRose.) It's been neat seeing behind-the-scenes looks at the lives of people I've followed on Instagram forever too. And hearing your voices! It's fun. What do you think of it and let me know what you want to see on mine.

Have a happy start to your week!

Hearing people's voices is wild, right?! When it sounds like I imagined, I feel like I won the lottery. That dress is lovely on you. I've tried those style dresses before but they're always too short for me. If I get any more in the mail that are too short, I'll just have to send them your way. :-)

The dress is so cute! And you've styled it brilliantly, and I think it would look amazing with black tights and boots. Can't wait to see that!
I'm not all too into the new feature on IG. I feel like it is superfluous...
Anyway, hope you've had an amazing week and that you'll have a great weekend!
Much love,
Mona

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...
