Style Musings: Happy Father's Day!

Yes, I know these pictures suck.  I need to find a better place to take pictures.

 Anyways, this is what I wore to Father's Day yesterday.  We went to brunch where my sister works as a hostess.  It was really cute!  It's called Miel, which means honey in French.  They actually have bees on the roof, and use the honey in some of their options.  It's styled as a French country house.  I'm sorry I didn't get any pictures of the resturant.  I had a ham and cheese crepe with pulled pork.  It was good.

 This is what I decided to wear.  The dress is from Express.  I got it during that shopping spree a couple weeks ago.  I really love this dress.  It's a perfect summer color.  The band is a great color, and makes the dress so much more chic.  The draping is amazing, but that means I need an undershirt.  The band is in the best place.  Usually, when a dress has a band, it cuts me off in a weird place, but not this one!  You can't really see the dress in all its glory in these pictures, so I'll try to get better pictures soon. 

The shoes are from Old Navy.  I got them yesterday to wear with my black and white shorts.  They just happened to match my dress perfectly!  I finished off the look with a pair of burnished gold oval earrings. 



Style Musings: Sushi!

Last Saturday (6/9) was my sisters birthday.  Happy Birthday!  We celebrated on Friday by going out to sushi.  We went to our favorite sushi place: Haruki.  It was yummy.  My favorite sushi is tuna. 

 This is what I decided to wear.  First I started with my new shorts from Express.  They have a really cool tribal print.  I don't really have much to match them, so I had to decide between my mint tank and this green top.  The mint tank looked good, but it's notoriously cold in Haruki.  So I was a little less miserable in the green top.   

When it comes to shoes, I'm not really sure.  I think I need classic flats or sandals in a single color.  Any suggestions?  

Style Musings: Rainy Day

I'm still in school. It's just a math class, so it's not stressful.  This is what I wore to class the other day.

  

 Of course I wore my light pink Forever 21 blazer! To mix it up, I matched it up with my BDG green jeans.

 I tried some pattern mixing with my H&M leopard print top and Forever 21 floral flats. I think it works. What do you think?

Style Musings: Float Like a Butterfly

....sting like a bee.

I wore this outfit to class.  The room is freezing, so jeans and a top are a must.  I started with Forever 21 boyfriend jeans.  I cuffed them to show off my braided Report sandals.   

My top is from Forever 21.  It has a wonderful butterfly print.  The ruffle is great too.  I never thought I could wear ruffles, but it works. 

The blazer is also Forever 21.  I actually love it.  It's a little tight in the shoulders, but I love the color.  I can't button it either.  But it doesn't need to be buttoned! It adds a little structure to the flowy top.  

Style Musings: RAWR!

It was so warm on Sunday!  I am loving it!  So this is what I rocked to my sisters softball game.  She's 14, and on the towns rec team, so it's not a high-stakes game or anything.  She got a few hits.  I think she got to base twice, and got to home base once.  She did well. 

 I actually like this outfit.  I love the leopard-print top from H&M.  It's very soft and light.  The purple shorts are from Old Navy.  They add some color.  I could do this look with a brighter color short, like red or pink.

 The shoes are comfy since I was sitting for a while.  And hungry.  Very hungry.  I just finished my first week on Jenny Craig.  They give you very small portions.  And I'm used to eating big portions.  Give me a week or two and I'll be fine. 

I topped off this look with my H&M aviator sunglasses.

I have no idea what I am doing in this picture.

Style Musings: No Surrender

 "No retreat, baby, no surrender."- No Surrender, Bruce Springsteen

Those are perfect words to live by.  I have to say, Bruce Springsteen has songs with great lyrics.

 I wanted to wear my Charming Charlie's dress.  I love this dress.  The pattern and color are perfect.  Then I threw on a purple H&M cardigan for warmth.  It's still a little chilly.

My Born flatforms add height.  My sister actually got me these earrings!  She went to Florida recently and got us all gifts.  The earrings add a little color to a mostly darker look.  And my H&M aviators are awesome, as always.

So, on Monday, I'm getting a tadpole to raise!  I need suggestions for a name, please.  I want something that isn't obvious, like Lilly or Frogger.  Thanks.

Style Musings: One Cool Chick

I'm so cool in my H&M aviator sunglasses. They're not Ray-Ban's but I love them. I love their shape.

I am finally wearing a cute dress! I love it! I love the print and the ruffle. I try to stay away from ruffles, but this works because it's not a lot. It's pretty short, but that makes it great for spring.

Nothing's really going on in my life.  Almost the end of the semester, so we're getting ready for finals.  This summer, I am working at my camp, and taking a math class for a couple weeks.  One more semester to go!  I'm really excited about that. 

The shoes are my Born flatforms, and ground my girly dress.

Purple toes! Well, purple toenails. If you have purple toes, you have a problem and need help. I got a pedicure a week or so ago, and was going to get hot pink. But that's so expected. And pastels are so hot, I needed to get purple. I love them. They're so sweet. I know the polish was OPI, and I think it is Do You Lilac It?, but don't take my word on it.

Indian Summer

It was hot today, like summer hot. I thought it was supposed to be fall. Well, it gives me an opportunity to wear my H&M button down with denim shorts. It's a simple look with brown braided sandals.

They're cute.

This is such a comfy outfit. The shirt is a bit sheer, but it looks okay in this picture. I desperately need a better camera, or at least one that doesn't blur my pictures.

I did an ombre effect on my nails. It looks so badass.
