Petite Panoply

Happy Monday everyone! This is a pretty casual outfit I wore because I had to pack some things in my car. Plus I wanted to get some wear out of these acid wash jeans I just had to have. I still think they're cool and I don't care who knows it! This time I paired them with my pink bow sweater and some black studded loafers.  (And thank you to Matt for quickly snapping these for me before I left!) sweater: elle - kohl's | jeans: boohoo | loafers: xappeal - rack room shoes Did you guys have a nice weekend? I'm spending time visiting family right now, so it's not exactly a restful break so far, but that's okay. I'm still having fun and it's great to not be in school. I've been doing crossword puzzles, catching up on my backlog of blogs I read, thrifting, and trying to reach my Goodreads yearly book goal. Nerdy times you guys. I love it.  Have a great beginning of your week!

It's my new green shorts again! I loved how they looked with my bow tights and polka dot blazer. I just really liked this outfit. It all came together perfectly and it was comfy for a long day of class! polka dot blazer: lauren conrad - kohl's | t-shirt: saddle creek | shorts, tights, hair bow: forever 21 | shoes: c/o s way chic I hope you have a good weekend! I'm visiting Washington for the first time because I have basketball band duties there. It'll be a short trip, but at least I'll get to be there for a couple days or so. I'm sure I'll post pictures when I get back! Happy Friday!

I really like how perfectly my polka dot tights look with this red dress. My favorite part is the harmonious combination of red, black, & brown here. I actually wore this outfit to class another day, but decided to wear it on Saturday too. Outfit repeats are completely okay in my book! Especially if I didn't get a picture of it the first time.  dress: modcloth | polka dot tights: kmart | leather ankle boots: thrifted | cardigan: so... - kohl's | belt: ralph lauren - thrifted | sunglasses: kohl's This is my finger-guns-so-happy-about-spring-break pose. So much joy.  I can't believe it's already Wednesday! This week needs to slow down so I can enjoy more of my time off.

Hello! My package of stuff from the Modcloth sale came over the weekend, so I've been pretty eager to wear my new things. This striped dress fit the least perfectly of the three dresses I bought, but I made it work. I paired some bright pink tights with it yesterday, but I'm sure any color would look nice with it. Perhaps a pair of polka dot tights would be nice too? drawn to greyscale dress : modcloth | tights: kmart | studded flats: c/o sway chic | cardigan: so... - kohl's | belt: old This probably sounds weird, but this mix of pink, gray, and black made it seem a little early 2000's pop-punk-ish. And I say that in the best way possible. My matching pink nails probably helped. I've decided I'm allowed to have a tiny soft spot for the pop-punk styles (and some of the wonderfully bad music) of my middle school days even though I didn't dress in that style then. I'm not saying this outfit looks like that time either, but the colors reminded me of...

This is definitely a more casual outfit for me. The pink sweater and polka dot blazer are both new additions to my wardrobe. I picked them up at Kohl's while I was Christmas shopping and it wasn't until later that I thought about wearing them together. The sweater is right up my alley with the bright color and lace bow so I kind of had to buy it. The blazer was on clearance for something like $16. I have a strong urge to wear it with my polka dot shorts. Unfortunately the two dotted patterns are slightly different, so I probably shouldn't do that... polka dot blazer: lauren conrad - kohl's | bow sweater : elle - kohl's | pants: fashion bug | shoes: c/o sway chic   These pants are pretty much just sweat pants with pockets. They're so very stretchy and comfortable! I miss the structure of jeans when I wear these though. However, they're perfect for nap time. I've already started with the Christmas colors for my nails. They don't...

I can't remember an Easter Sunday that wasn't nice and sunny. I'm sure it exists, but not in my recent memory. Jeanie and I always like to take pictures together on Easter. I forgot to plan an Easter outfit when I left school, so I just had to throw my outfit together. The lace top is a new purchase, but the denim skirt was sitting in my closet because it reeked of gasoline smell. (I ordered it and it came like that. So gross.) Luckily it didn't smell so much anymore! Jeanie actually had her floral dress in her closet, I think. So that was pretty convenient. lace top: kohls skirt: forever21.com shoes: bongo - kmart earrings, hair clip: forever 21 This week should actually be pretty calm. I'm pumped about having a bit of free time away from writing essays. I've just been sitting on the couch eating Easter candy since class ended. I'm that exciting! Happy Tuesday!

Hooray for it being Friday! Not hooray for having nothing to do. dress: forever 21 beret: h&m loafers: merona; target cardigan: so...; kohls necklace: gift It's a dream catcher! I saw people doing this pose. It looked cool. But then I learned that it hurts a lot. How do you like my new loafers? They weren't even $8 on clearance! I'm so excited about them. I guess I'm going to have a relaxing Friday. I'm just waiting on the chili I threw together to be done, listening to The Decemberists & Elvis Costello (that's a weird mix), and doing some blogging. Such an exciting day!  Happy Friday!
