Picture Over Load

I know I know, like whoa picture overload! I just couldn't pick for some reason and you know what, really there isn't even anything special about this outfit of the pictures. Its all really simple. I just really love fashion blogs when they have tons of pics. I will read a bit but nothing that is over a paragraph of two. Since I like it I figure I can't be the only person who loves lots of outfit pics. Nothing really much to say about the outfit other than it was accompanied by my moms amazing turquoise necklace. Love that thing. Its super heavy too. Its cold enough here now that I am wearing lots of layers and coats. Some posts of that coming soon.

Turquoise Necklace- Borrowed from my mom, I believe she bought it in Santa Fe

Home Made Maxi Dress

This maxi dress is one that my mom made for me. I found the whole bolt of fabric for only $5. We didn't have any pattern and just sort of winged it. It turned out so great that when I found another fabric that I liked I bought it and made another maxi. I paired this one with the denim shirt over it. I know, I know, I have literally worn out this denim trend this past summer. But please just keep in mind that I didn't wear all these outfits in the order that they were posted. Still working on posting outfits from this summer. I am currently saving up some great fall looks that will be coming shortly...

Wearing:
Maxi- Home made
Denim shirt- Gap
Bracelets- borrowed from my mom

Polka Dot Skirt & Denim

The last few months I have been getting really into thrifting. With the help of my mom I was able to pick out lots of skirts with prints on them that I liked for less than $4. I also got some really great pleated skirts. We then began to re-work them to fit me in the waist and hem them. This has to be one of my favorites that we did. It is absolutely adorable. My brother told me I looked like a girl from the 50s. What a compliment, that just happened to be exactly what I was going for. I have many plans to wear skirts layered with tights and sweaters this fall, oh and especially with boots too!

Wearing:

Ring The Bells That Still Can Ring

Another summer outfit pic. I have really been enjoying wearing all the new fall clothes but only recently started taking pics of them. Soon I will mix in some of those pics. For now that leaf around my neck is about all this outfit has to do with fall. On another note, I swear all the witty things I think of throughout the course of the day seem to turn to vapors when I try to remember them for a post. Lately I have really been diggin painted nails so I decided that I will have to do a post on some new colors I found and the like.

Wearing:

Pink Elephant

So I am still working on posting all the old pics from the summer. I have some that I don't think will make the cut. I liked the outfits at the time of wearing them but somehow they didn't turn out as well when they were photographed and now I pretty much hate them. I may have to start a new segment called "outfits I can't believe I wore". But since I can barely seem to maintain my blog as is that probably won't happen. This pink blouse is thrifted and I was initially drawn to it by its bright color. It is colorful and happy without being too loud.

Wearing-
Shirt- Thrifted from the DI
Jeans- J Brand

Old Pic

I have had pics on my computer all summer long. I had been so busy with school stuff that I didn't have time to dote on my blog as I should. So now I am trying to make up for it and post all those old pics. Here is something that I wore in the heat of summer. Not much to say about it except sorry for the dark pics obviously it was night when I finally took them.

Wearing:
Shirt- GAP
Short- Old from GAP
Belt- Old Abercrombie
Shoes- Target
Bag- Thailand Knock Off

Striped Flowers

Been really into thrifting lately. Can't resist the treasure hunt for good finds. This skirt is something that I found and loved the print of. It was about mid calf in length so I had my lovely mom take up the hem. I mixed it with a striped tee that I love. Not a half bad look, if I do say so myself. More thrift finds to come!

Wearing:
Striped Shirt- Target (old)
Flower Skirt- Thrifted
Lizard/Leather Belt- Thrifted
Sandals- Vintage

PS- I have decided that although I don't usually wear much jewelry, due to its impracticality in everyday wear, I have resolved to make my looks more interesting by using wearing it for outfit posts!! Hopefully I don't look tacky!
