Petite Panoply

Happy New Year everyone! I hope you all had a nice New Year's Eve. Mine was very casual and I enjoyed that a lot. We played a board game, had some beer, and watched various countdown shows until midnight. There were also sparklers, so that was exciting.  I thought about wearing a fully sequined dress but I was kind of tired and wanted to be able to lounge. That's not exactly easy when you're worried about sequins laying correctly. I was glad I had this black tulle skirt at home! It's festive but also comfortable - especially when paired with a soft vintage t-shirt like this Psychotic State one. This is probably my all-time favorite vintage shirt from Dad and that's saying something because they're all really cool. How can you beat this one though? I figured it made a nice statement about 2013 and the large amount of grad school that took up my life and brain. Anyway, I tried to add as much sparkle to my outfit as possible with my silver beaded necklace ...

It's my birthday! Wooooo! I can't believe I finally made it to 21. This is my daytime outfit. skirt: forever 21 top: forever 21 shoes: xhileration; target bow: h&m earrings: vintage 80's from Mom I felt it was completely appropriate to wear this tulle skirt to class. It's my birthday and I get to wear whatever I want and I don't care who thinks I'm too dressed up! I can't believe I didn't get a good picture of my earrings. They're the same ones I wore for my birthday last year. Perhaps I'll leave them in for going out. We'll see. I'm just waiting for friends and family to arrive in Athens so I can begin my festivities. A nap might be in order so I can stay out late! Happy Friday everyone!
