A Bit Ladylike

Cardigan: Target, Tank: Thrifted, Skirt: Kohl's LC Lauren Conrad,
 Heels: Steve Madden, Headband: Forever 21

Every now and then I like to mix the unexpected. I feel like this skirt is so lady like and feminine with it's pastel pink color and pretty pleats. I think this shirt is a bit harsh with it's big bold black and white stripes, I usually wear this to my rock concerts but I like the contrast between the two. This is my last free weekend before school starts...I'm not ready to go back just yet. Oh well I'm going to make the best of it...movie and dinner date with the boyfriend and margaritas with my sisters sounds pretty good to me. What are your plans for the weekend? Do tell :)


I've also been dreaming about this dress from Shabby Apple. I can't wait until payday! 

They are having a sale that goes on through January where you can get 20% off your order. For any of you that want to join in on the offer just use the code NEWYEAR at checkout.

Hope you all have a lovely weekend :)

Shimmer & Sparkle

Shirt, Skirt, Necklace: Forever 21, Heels: Rebecca Minkoff, Headband: Sea of Blooming Dreams

I finally had the day off today, it feels nice to get a day to myself before school picks up again. I decided to wear this maxi skirt because it's completely comfortable and although it takes almost no effort to get dressed it still looks pulled together with just about anything. Remember the last time I wore this skirt as a sheer maxi? Well I decided that I wanted to just wear it as a full length black skirt...so versatile right? Yup, just another reason why I love this skirt. And you know that I almost always gravitate towards sequins when trying to feel a bit dressed up. I like that this shirt has more of a subtle sparkle that is easily pulled off for a daytime look. 

What I Want For Myself


A new year always brings on new hopes and expectations for the coming months.
Last year was great but I'm determined to make 2012 just as good if not better.
Here are my goals for this year.

1. Start taking dance classes again
2. Sew something for myself to wear & complete 2 projects a month
3. Cook more often
4. Save up for a better camera
5. Take a trip somewhere
6. Make this blog better and hopefully at least double in followers
7. Stop procrastinating with school work

It's not a huge list, but it's a list I can actually see myself accomplishing.

So here's to 2012...let's make this happen!
