A Girl’s Love For A Romper

Black romper with aztec clutch

Hi Lovelies!

This romper! I was strolling through Forever 21 with Chelsea and I saw this on the mannequin. I needed it, obviously. I have told you before and I will tell you again, I am NOT a huge fan of shorts. In fact, I have only worn shorts a select few times on the blog (Here, here, here, & here), but this romper is going to be a regular in my summer wardrobe. I’m pretty sure it’s the fact that the legs are loose and it looks almost like a dress…but oh my, I love it. It’s comfortable and I just love the lace trim at the bottom.

I’ve been wearing this fedora a lot lately. Everyone always says that they can’t pull off hats, and I used to think the same, but I promise you that you can! Fedoras look great on everyone, as do those floppy hats:) Hats are just fantastic for the summer sun, and they can make even the most ordinary outfit look fabulous! Oh yeah, and if you haven’t noticed the necklace, you should probably go back and take a look. Yeah, that’s right, it’s a camel. A camel for hump day. What could be better than that? Nothing…except maybe Friday…Friday really needs to get here fast…

Dressing Up The Boyfriend Jeans

Boyfriend jeans and wedges

Hi Lovelies!

This week has absolutely FLOWN by. I swear, I didn’t believe it as a child, but the older you get the faster time seems to go. I can’t complain because that means the weekend is almost upon us again, but seriously, time needs to slow down! It’s supposed to rain here this weekend, but I hope it lets up for a little while so that I can add on to my tan from last weekend. Can ya see it? Can ya? It’s totally there!

Today’s outfit is inspired by one of my favorite bloggers, Megan from For All Things Lovely. She is the best girl I know at dressing up a pair of boyfriend jeans and a tee with some cute heels. I am always looking for a way to make an outfit like this one a little more girlie and throwing on a pair of heels really is the best way! Only one problemo. Megan+heels=very unstable. I love, LOVE heels, but I am not the most coordinated person on this earth and wearing heels usually ends up with me on the floor. If I don’t fall over, I get uncomfortable after a few hours and need to take them off. This is why I got REALLY excited when Kushyfoot wanted to send me a pair of flats to go. They are so light and thin they fit right in your purse, but they are actually pretty comfortable! I have always been really smart with my heels and have brought along sandals or flats with me, but I cannot tell you how many times I have had to take a larger purse when going out because of them. Now don’t get me wrong, I’m not going to be wearing them to work all day, or for more than a few hours while out with friends, but when your feet are dying these things are the best ten bucks you will have ever spent!

Do you take flats with you when you go out in heels?

Hot Pink and Teal

Happy Monday, everyone!

I, however, am not having such a happy Monday. Hubby and I watched the final episode of Downton Abbey last night (I know, I know, we are about six months behind), and for all of you who have seen it, I am in shock and mourning. :( Well, obviously, to go along with my foul mood it is a not so beautiful day here in Austin. To make myself feel a little better and make it seem like summer, I decided to go with a hot pink and teal outfit today! I love, LOVE to mix and match colors and when I saw this skirt and belt set at Target I knew I had to have it! The fact that it came with a teal belt was awesome, because not only did I NEED a teal belt, it also gave me a great idea on how to accessorize the skirt:)

Of course, I had to add a little pop of yellow in there as well…it is my favorite color after all!

Well, on with my Monday. I will try not to let a fictional character run my life….but then again maybe not. I hope you all enjoyed today’s outfit!

Sunday Funday!

Happy Sunday Lovelies!

Today is Sunday Funday, the perfect day for a comfy, casual, yet still cute outfit! The hubby and I celebrated Sunday Funday by having brunch at one of our FAVORITE restaurants, Austin Java. If you live in the Austin area and haven’t been there, you NEED to go. They have the best Green Chile Tomatillo Eggs Benedict….may sound different, but it is sooo delicious! Well, here is the brunch outfit for today:

All That Glitters: Yellow Sandals with Printed Skirt

All That Glitters: Yellow Handbag

All That Glitters: Yellow Wedges and printed skirt

Skirt: Delia’s
Top: Wet Seal
Sandals: I don’t remember, they are older, but the bottom says “Jaclyn Smith”
Earrings: Forever 21
Wedges: Charlotte Russe
Handbag: Charming Charlie
Camera Ring: Kohls
Bracelets: Pandora and Charming Charlie

Of course, you have to have an option to dress it all up a little bit and I love wedges. Wedges are WAY more comfortable than heels, but I won’t lie I definitely took these off after pictures and went with the sandals today:)

Hope you all enjoyed Sunday Sunday! Oh, and Happy Father’s Day!

Hi Low for my Birthday!

Hello Lovelies!

It was my birthday yesterday, so Wes and I and a few of our friends went to dinner in downtown Austin. Obviously, being my birthday I needed a cute, new outfit….so on my break at work I went to Target to go shopping. I found this adorable printed hi-low skirt and a white chiffon tank top. I’ll have to do another post on this one when it’s not tucked in, because it is super cute by itself as well! Hi-low skirts and dresses, also known as mullets (haha), are huge this season and I have to say I am surprised I didn’t already own one. Maybe it is just me, but there are certain things in today’s trends that can make me look as though I am wearing a potato sack, so I am really into belting things. Belts really help to show that I have a shape in outfits that can be just blah.

Do you like the mix and match teal and purples/pinks? I love adding a little pop of a different color every now and then, it really mixes things up:) I can’t wait to try this one again with my cowboy boots, they would be great to dress it down a little bit!

Have a great Thursday!
