A Jeanie Outfit: Teal Chevron Dress, Gold Skinny Belt, & Studded Black Heels

Image
Happy Monday everyone! I hope you're having a nice day so far. It's time for another Jeanie outfit here on the blog! This is what she wore to our uncle's wedding. This teal chevron print dress is great because it can be dressed up or down. She wore some super cool studded heels and added a gold belt to make it fancier. Plus she wore one of our mom's bow pins as a hair pin - something I've been doing lately with my own pins/brooches/whatever-you-prefer-to-call-thems. It's a creative idea to get more use out of those pins you may have laying around! sorry I'm not sure of the outfit details this time! The fancy outfits and snowy backgrounds are over for now! Did you guys have a good weekend? I survived taking my comprehensive exams and spent the rest of the weekend walking around Athens with Matt. We saw Muppets Most Wanted  (which was awesome) and took in a free eco-film at Cine downtown. Cine is great because it's affordable and they h...

Green Backless Halter Dress with Silver Heels to Attend a St. Patrick's Themed Wedding

Happy St. Patrick's Day everyone! Here's what I wore to my uncle's slightly St. Patrick's Day themed wedding on Saturday. Most of the girls decided to wear green so I broke out this dark green halter dress from deep within my closet. It was my homecoming dress from junior year of high school. I'd really wanted a Marilyn Monroe style dress in green that year so Mom made this one for me. I'm happy it still fits! The only issue while wearing this dress is making sure I don't have a wardrobe malfunction. There's plenty of tape holding the fabric perfectly in place just in case! dress: handmade by Mom | hair comb: sally's | heels: christian siriano - payless I made sure to style the dress differently than back in high school. I went with silver pumps and a silver hair comb. I also had a dark purple cardigan in case I got cold but there aren't any pictures of that! This whole outfit just goes to show you should dig around in your closet...

The Pink Thrifted Dress

I'm kind of in love with this dress I thrifted. I was super pumped to show you guys pictures of me wearing it at my friends' wedding! There aren't any true "outfit shots" per say, but you'll get the drift. I didn't initially intend to wear my teal cardigan all night, but it wasn't all that warm outside after the sun went down. The wedding was super pretty though and we all had a great time. This is how I pose when I'm ready to party and am pretending to be a model: dress: thrifted vintage cardigan: delia*s shoes: ross dress for less sunglasses: forever 21 necklace: from Italy nails: OPI I ended up pinning up the dress to make it a bit more casual, but hopefully sometime I'll have a place to wear it at it's longer length. I'm glad I picked the teal and mint colors to pair with my light pink dress. It made it a bit more unique, I think. Plus the floral heels added a nice touch of pattern. So it wasn...
