denim on denim.

this is an outfit i wore a few weeks ago that i finally got uploaded to my computer. I really wanted to capture this one for you guys but only had my phone with me which neither has an auto timer, nor would it stay upright long enough to take a photo anyway. so I did my best, hope you like it. 



wearing: target blouse and belt, forever 21 jeans, my mothers old loafers, & gold jewelry

ps. sorry about the terrible quality :/

Hanna.

I literally just finished watching the movie Hanna. I basically wish I could be her for a week. A bad ass from the forest? Honestly it can't get much cooler than that.


okay so the first picture isn't actually Soairse Ronan but Ive been dying to post this one and her hair reminds my of the gorgeous blond locks from the movie...and lets be honest here, half the reason i loved it so much was her long flowing bleached hair...

....which I obviously couldn't find a picture of. so just watch the movie. do it, i dare you.
you won't regret it, you'll merely decide it's time to take an intense self defense class and learn an extra language or 7.

dress to impress?

Homecoming is charging at me like I'm wearing red and it's a bull! I haven't gotten a dress yet and I'm nearing the panic stage. My boyfriend and I have to go shopping for his ensemble, but it wouldn't be very useful if we don't know the color of my dress. I found these online that I'm sort of loving. But then again I never get what I find online.

Besides that I'm also taking some notes on this one:

So this year I want something more elegant, which is stupid because I'm naturally drawn to the classic and sophisticated looks anyway and that's usually what I get. BUT! I've also always had this sort of mini-lifelongdream of wearing a vintage white lace dress to a dance.

If you mix these 3 dresses

with this back, it's almost perfect.


 Just kidding it's not what I imagined at all in my brain but I like it anyway.

So, uh, happy Monday, let me hear a TGIO...Thank God Its Over.

Basically I'm in love cuz these looks are major.





Oh My Lord And Taylor, Lets All Trade Places For One Day??!?

little black dress approved.

This past weekend was my cousin's wedding. It was so beautiful and everything was perfect. I was fussing over what to wear because the invitation didn't have a specification. My mother was dressing a bit more casual though so I ended up in this little black dress. Keepin' it classy, not trashy, as my clothing teacher likes to say. And might I add there was a bit of trashy LBD's  at the reception, enough so to encourage an elderly woman to compliment my classy choices. So, there you have it, my LBD was indeed, little black dress approved.



wearing: LBD from Maurices, worthington heels, mom's ring & earrings, double cuff arm party (pop quiz! what amazing blogger uses/invented that term?? do ya know, do ya? no guesses? The Man Repeller! check her outt, she makes me wish i had jokes, cuz lemme tell you, shes. got. jokes.)
  
I'm sort of upset I didn't get a picture of the round cutout in the back, but I assure you, it was skimpy. Just kidding it was not large enough for a small dog to fit through.

enchanted.

I'm practically drooling on my computer as I look over these 4 photos for the billionth time. On lookbooks.com there was an interveiw of Riad Azar, a hair genius. These are his beautiful creations, and honestly I think these pictures speak for themselves. Enough said.

on the wall.

mirror selfie? I think yes. I know you all wish you were this cool, because one's social status is directly related to how many mirror selfie's one has on one's facebook page. I have three. I know it's shocking I have so little, but not to worry my goal is to have seven....or twelve. This one will be soon posted pulling me up to a whooping four. YES.

wearing: forever 21 dress, target belt, gold arm candy

sitting, waiting, wishing.

And don't look back because I can't wait forever, and when you need me I can't promise I'll be there.



I'm loving my Jack Johnson mix tapes these days. Feeling mellow I suppose, more than once the boys at lunch have commented that I talk to much, haa! Well boys, don't hold your breath because this mood won't last and by tomorrow (figurative tomorrow....no promises though) you really will want me to shut up.
Happy wishing.




these two lookbook photos basically sum up my style mood, carelessly chic.

mesmerized.

Hey dolls, here's just a beautiful picture or three. I'm sorry I've been so busy lately, but the cyber neglect is most defiantly not intended!

B.A.

There's something so intriguing about a dark angel or a band of rebels. I'm feeling the dark vibes right now, maybe since I'm thinking about dying my hair darker? I know, I know it's a lame excuse. But pardon me for wanting to reveal my naughty side! Yea that's right, I'm naughty, going about my day without holding the door open for that stranger behind me, borrowing clothes without permission, some days I even venture into the finishing the ceral and putting the box back in the cabinet era, yea I'm a bad ass. Just kidding. But seriously, don't mess with me.

change isn't always bad, is it?

I need a change. Of heart, style approach, education, shoes, anything. My future right now is so unplanned and undecided that I feel like I've got the whole world on my shoulders.
yay for a picture reference!
( that, my friend, is one awesome tattoo. )


It's draining! I need an 80 minute massage and a little retail therapy. Thank God I leave for Chicago in less than 2 days!  Hope your Wednesday felt more productive than mine darlings.

lost in the action.

I'm having out of body experiences the way one has freezy pops in the summer, like every 10 minutes. lol  My life feels so crazy right now and honestly I'm sort of stunned? Not sure what to do or say so for now I'm just observing. One thing I know I'm prepared for is my fall fashion, whoa baby I can't wait for the leaves to change and the air to crisp. What are your seasonal change add ins??

Here's some of my current obsessions.

 button downs and structured bags.

dressy tops and casual pants.

all white and ankle boots.

head toppers and long hair.

night lovies.
