Blech!!

This was one of those outfits that you walk around thinking- alright I'm looking pretty delicious today!!!

And then, you come home, take your blog picture, and go : What the eff was I thinking?!!??

Yeah, I left the house feeling super fly, but when I saw these pics, I thought- great I look ridiculously dumpy- I mean this did nothing to flatter my figure...in fact, it emphasized all the bad parts of my figure!

Where do I start? Oh, yes, I know where... my BUST, okay I know a lot of people pay to have a larger bustline- but I am willing to pay to have a smaller one!!! I think that everyday I wake up I have gotten bigger up there- seriously!! I gets to the point that I feel crowded by my boobs!!

On top of that these jeans- which I thought were a score at $2, thrifted, did absolutely nothing for my thighs!!! My thighs are not that huge- look back, there's prior evidence!! I don't know, these may go into a destroy and upcycle pile, we'll see.

What's that you say? Is she done yet?

Well, yes, yes I am...

I apologize for the rant, but I hate these days!!

Fushia houndstooth cami- gifted, Express

Let me tell you how much I LOVE this headband, $6 is a little steep for me and headwear- but I LOVE it!!

Yep,these guys again!

This was Monday

I felt like my style has been a little boring lately, so I decided to mix up my color palette just a little bit. I actually really like how this turned out, I needed something simple and easy...what's more simple or easy than a cami and a cardi.

I've been reading about "uniforms" and I guess this would be my go to look when I have no idea and can't make my mind up.

My Outfit:

Cami- $5, I think Walmart (had it forever!!)

Cardigan- $4, Thrifted

Jeans- hand me downs

Earrings- $2, Shirley's

Flips- $1, Cato

Total Cost: $ 12

Wow, that's pretty cheap, even for me!!

Apparently my super fave for the summer:

Oh, did you notice the puppy again- what a photo fiend!!! Eednic over at Fashionably eLate asked what kind of dog I had, and to be quite honest...he's a mutt. He was marketed on the humane society website as a "boxer mix" but we see a few different breed, truthfully, your guess is as good as mine!!

I Don't Really Know About This...

I don't really know about this outfit...I think it photographed well, but I didn't feel super confident in it. I don't know, what do you think?

Today's Outfit:

Brown cami- $3, JC Penney

White dress (worn as blouse)- $12, Cato's

Floral skirt- $4, Gap via Ebay

Belt- $0.60, thrifted

Sandals- gifted

Earrings- $1.50, Cato's

Necklace- made by me

Total Cost: $21.10

Forgive the thread all over the carpet, the puppy is ripping his toys apart and leaving the remenants all over the floor!

The accessories and print:

1 Skirt 3 Ways Challenge: Day 1

So, I am finally starting the challenge posed by Jane, to pick just one skirt and wear it three different ways. Today was so beautiful and light I thought this skirt was perfect!! I don't know if anyone remembers but this is actually the skirt from my very first post. The thing I like about it is that it transitions well between weather and since I live in Alabama, the weather is insanely random. I know that the print is recognizable, but I like that because it poses a challenge for me to mix it up without looking the same. Oh, you may be wondering why no head today, not wearing makeup right then and trust me you don't want to see this!

My Outift:

Teal Shirt- $3, Walmart

Brown floral skirt- $4, Cato

Belt- $2, thrifted

Sandals- $1, Cato

Necklace- gifted, for graduation

Earrings- $1, Dollar tree

Total Cost: $11

A very bad close-up of my necklace:

Okay, I cannot express into words how much I loooove these sandals!! I bought them during winter, when the stores are just dying to get rid of their leftover summer stuff, this is actually how I buy most things, I very rarely shop in-season. At any rate, perfectly good sandals only $1.

No skirt just yet...

I didn't wear the skirt for the skirt challenge yet, gonna start tomorrow though...today I just wanted something a little more casual and more low key so this is what I went for:

Today's Outfit:

White tee- $3, Walmart

Pink blouse- gifted from my mom

Skinny jeans- $9, TJ Maxx

Silver sandals- gifted from my mom

Headband- $1, Walmart ($3 for 3 pk.)

Earrings- gifted

Necklace- $1, Dollar Tree

Total cost: $14

I think these are the sandals I'm actually planning to wear for my wedding, I know I'm very untraditional. My mom picked these up for me while she lived in Australia for this purpose, they're still really pretty, but they're also pretty comfortable, and I'm trying to wear them in a little bit so that they're even more comfortable on the big day.
