First Day of School - What I Wore

I promised I'd post what I wore today so here it is. Casual, not dressy, and in my style. I absolutely love Mickey Mouse, and pretty much all Disney so the tank was definitely the right choice, and my watch is Mickey too. :)

(This was taken just as I got to school. Thus the funky background.)

Jeans: Delia*s (I got these forever ago, but they're still my favorite)

Shoes: Cohesion 5 by Saucony from Famous Footwear

Tank: Target - Juniors Section

Peace Necklace: Kohl's - On clearance

Sunnies: Target - Dollar Section

Hope your first day back (to school or to work) was amazing! What did you wear? Have you found your favorite new sweatshirt or pair of jeans yet? Tell me in the comments!

OOTD 1/29/13

Hey guys! I wanted to share my outfit today! 

I'm wearing my corset cami from Arizona Jean Co, my grey studded skinny jeans from City Streets, (JCPenny for the win.) my black mid-sleeve blazer from Frenchi, (My aunt sent this to me, she got it from Macy's.) and my Croft & Barrow black suede booties. (I love these boots! I got them at Kohl's within the last few months. So comfy, but very nice!)

With this outfit, I was thinking Casual Classy. It's one of the styles that I choose a lot. I like to mix it up like this, with the casual and much nicer pieces together.

Hope you enjoyed! What's a style that you like? What do you like to do to mix up your wardrobe? Comment with your answers!!

Birthday Portrait

My mom has had my sister and I take a birthday portrait every year since we were born, and I took mine for this year in December. My birthday is in June. Yeah, we're on top of things. NOT.

Well this year my mom let me pick the outfit for a change and I think I did a pretty good job. I loved using these sunglasses for a prop, I think it brings more to the pictures. I got them at Ragstock if you're interested. The earrings are just from Claire's. (Also, you can't see it in these pictures, but I'm wearing bright pink skinny jeans and purple converse low tops.)

Add in some attitude...

My bracelets were really important to me in these pictures, and it's a shame that you can't see them so well. I made some of them and others were given to me, so they each mean something to me. Do you guys have any jewelry or clothing that holds memories? Share it in the comments.

Have a great day fashionistas!

Shopping Haul

Hey guys! 

I finally took pictures of the clothes haul I got during the holidays. The following is each piece and what I have to say about it. I got all of this from JCPenny.

First up: my new red jeans! (These are the Sparkle Skinny Jeans from Truce in red. They also come in blue and purple. Link is right here.) I love these jeans. The denim is really soft, and I love how the sides are dyed black. They are bedazzled, and I usually don't like that, but in this case, I don't think it's too much.

Here's a close up of the rhinestones, and the way the black dye fades out into the red:

Ok, next up is this purple over-shirt. (This one is from Arizona Jean Co. I couldn't find it on the website though, so I can't give you a link.) It's not very thick, and it's not very warm, and it's definitely for warmer weather than we have right now. I tied it up, but it is full length, and long sleeved, but the sleeves can be rolled up.

Ok, here is the Cherry Rose Railroad Corset Cami, also from Arizona Jean Co. This can be found here. This tank surprised me when I saw it from afar, because it's actually made of soft denim. I wasn't expecting that, but it's quite comfortable, and shapes well to my body form because the back is stretchable. (It's all scrunchy because it is sewn with elastic thread. You know what I mean, right?)

Next are my teal pants! These are from B.Wear, and again, I can't find them on the site, but these are close to the same thing. They're super awesome and they make me smile when I wear them. They feel like more of dress pants, because they're 75% rayon, but they have Nylon and Spandex for the other 25%, so they're sturdy but stretchy enough to be comfortable. I personally think that these are great for a casual friday kinda thing, because they do look professional enough to wear to an office, but the color is quite bold. (PS; they do need ironing if you crinkle them up, so fold them nicely and take care of them.)

So that's all I got over the holidays! I will post my next haul very soon, as I did go shopping today, and I got a few awesome things.

Smile on fashionistas! Feel free to comment, I love getting your feedback!

Coated Jeans!

The article of clothing I want most right now: Coated Jeans!

I've looked for an affordable pair, and haven't found much, but I'm still searching. I absolutely love these ones by Sinclair Elon:

I really like these because they have this great spray paint effect, which is very appealing to the eye, plus the fact that the effect is closer to the bottom of the leg gives people a reason to glance at your great new shoes! I would love to rock these sometime soon. 

 You can find them here.

A few others I liked are these one by DL Nineteen Sixty One:

I liked these ones because they have the same sort of fading effect, although these ones have a more gradual color change. 

You can buy them here

And these by Current/Elliot, which I love because of the edgy worn in look, which gives them character while still being classy:

You can find this pair here.

Below is a Polyvore design I made with a pair of awesome python patterned coated jeans, leather and studs. The items I used are below with links.

OOTD 8/15/12

Hey There!

I had an interesting day, where I had a meeting at school, and then I rushed to work. I had to wear something casual for the meeting, but nice enough for work, but also clothes that can get ink on them, because I work at a printmaking center. Crazy, right? 

So, here I am!

I'm wearing my fav grey skinnies (City Streets), a thin athletic-ish green hoodie with 3/4 sleeves rolled to half  (I don't remember where or when I got this one and the tag ripped off so I don't even know the brand...), and my tennis shoes. (Nike) {I got 3 blisters from a bad pair of flats and I can't wear my flip flops to work, so tennis shoes for the win!}

Hope everyone's having a calm and relaxing day! Don't hurry, don't worry, and don't forget to smell the flowers!
