Day 072: Swallows & Larks

So, my camera died the other day when I wore this outfit. Womp womp. Oh, well! One picture it is!


Enjoy your evening :)

Friday's Outfit (really behind):
I chose to go for a little bit of a preppy look. Khaki's! Woot woot! I decided to iron a crease going down the pant legs to give a more elongated look (by the time this picture had been taken I had been wearing them awhile and they started falling out). I wore them with a rose colored button-up blouse. And to keep the look for being too businessy I wore brown leather-woven flats with a pointy toe, a brown leather purse, and light brown big sunglasses. I also took a piece of cream colored scrap fabric with origami animals on it and tied it as a headband. Headbands, I've discovered, are a great way to cover up roots when I just don't have the money for a touch-up! XD

The Breakdown:
  • Blouse: Goodwill-$5
  • Pants: J.Crew-$35
  • Shoes: Goodwill-$6
  • Purse: Goodwill-$5
  • Sunglasses: Delias-$5
  • Headband: free!

Day 071: Magic Hours

I recently got my new Seychelles shoes in the mail and I completely adore them. What do you all think? :D

Today's Outfit:



Today I decided to wear my new Seychelles wedges with my new black skinny pants. I also wore a perforated crop top in a rust/blush color and added some light brown, big sunnies (I like to call them bitch glasses :P) and my camera ring. I tried to do a play on proportions by wearing really fitted clothing with loose, baggy clothing and then wore my super high wedges to add some length. 

The Breakdown:
  • Top: H&M-$12
  • Pants: The Gap-$36
  • Shoes: Seychelles via Endless.com-$90
  • Sunnies: Delias-$5
  • Ring: ModCloth-$10

Day 070: Leaves, and Flowers, and Pollen. Oh My!

Summer has hit Maryland! It seems that we went from cold and rainy straight to hot and humid, but I don't hate it (though my allergies are kind of insane at the moment)! Everything all of sudden got really green outside and its making me long for days at the beach! Time to whip out the shorts and sandals! :)

Outfit:


I decided to keep it pretty simple (especially because I wasn't feeling well this day). I wore a button up, denim blouse in a light wash with some denim shorts that fold at the hem. To add some spice to the outfit I wore some rad gladiator-ish sandals, red-orange lipstick, and a gold pendent necklace. Perfect for being outside on campus all day! :)

The Breakdown:
  • Blouse: J.Crew-$20
  • Shorts: J.Crew-$30
  • Sandals: ModCloth-$30
  • Necklace-Ebay-$10

Day 069: Risen

I hope everyones having a blessed Easter! Although I did dress up today for Easter Sunday the day was so busy that I never ended up taking a picture. :( I do however have a picture from yesterday! :D My lovely Aunt (as pictured below) took me out to dinner at Portalli's in Old Ellicott City (great food btw!) and then to see West Side Story at the Hippodrome. I love musicals and had such a fabulous time! Of course such an occasion called for playing dress up, duh. :)


Last Night's Outfit:


It was ridiculously sunny yesterday which was sweet when not facing directly at the sun :{ So, I went with a black dress that had a billion layers which I loved. It kind of had a modernized flapper dress look. I wore a black belt with a gold buckle to cinch in the dress at the waist. With the dress I wore some sheer black hose that have little black dots on them and some black suede booties. Added some red lipstick, of course. Perfect night out on the town outfit :)


The Breakdown:

  • Dress: A gift from my Grammy :)
  • Belt: Estate sale-free
  • Shoes: Urban Outfitters-$40
  • Hose: Target-$10

Day 068: Take Me To Tiffany's

I went clothes shopping! Woot woot! Friday my brother and I went to the Hagerstown, MD outlets and found some serious sales. It was great to buy quality clothes for a steal and stock up on some wardrobe basics!


Outfit:




So, it was super sunny and the picture quality pretty much blows in my opinion, but what are ya gonna do? I wore some of my new clothes that I bought and was super excited to do so. I wore a white button-up blouse that has gray stripes on it (can't really see that because of the sun) with some charcoal cigarette pants. Red-orange lipstick, red flats-voila! Classic, simple, chic.


The Breakdown:
  • Blouse: J. Crew-$30
  • Pants: J. Crew-$35
  • Flats: Target-$20

Day 066: Red Foxes

This outfit is actually from Monday. I'm going to try to get better at posting my outfits and updates on here I promise! It's difficult when you are a student with a heavy class load because often it comes down to working on my blog or studying for an exam that worth 20% of my grade. You get the picture :) Anyways, as I said I will try  to do better! XD


Past Outfit:


Yay for 80 degree weather and legs that haven't seen the light of day in months! I was really pumped to finally wear my new red high-waisted shorts that I bought a month or two ago. They ended up not being the most flattering silhouette for me but, hey they're cute who cares! I went for a red and pink look since I'm lovin' those colors together lately. I wore my red shorts with a red blouse that has tiny foxes all over it. For some pink accents I wore bright pink lipstick and my pink sunglasses (which I lost and recovered-phew!). Added my brown leather sandals and I was good to go for this awesome summer-like day :)

The Breakdown:
  • Shorts: H&M-$18
  • Blouse: Ruche-$30
  • Shoes: Some random store in mall-$15
  • Sunglasses: Delias-$5
  • Lipstick: MAC-$15
