Just Dance

A while back my sisters and I were in a commercial for the Wii game Just Dance. If you look hard enough you can find us! It's like a game of Where's Waldo?!

Future Reflections

Shirt: men's white button down, Nordstrom's via my Dad 
w/ two studs I put on the collar
Belt: Fossil from Macy's
Skirt: H&M
Tights: probably from Target
Shoes: Aldo - I found out that they are an 
exact copy of a pair of Christian Louboutins

I'm excited that it is the weekend! I have a long list of tasks that I want to accomplish. I have a few new vintage shops in Burbank that I am going to check out and then make a quick popover to my favorite store, It's a Wrap. Last time I was there I saw the perfect pair of black and pink Miu Mius that were a half size to big, so this time I'm hoping to find a pair that are my size.

If you have never checked out It's a Wrap and you live in the LA area it is a really fun place to shop. They get a lot of clothing from the studios and usually have the name of the studio and sometimes the show or movie that the garment was from on the tag. The majority of the clothing and shoes that they have are pretty terrible (really warn, completely altered or terrible quality) BUT they always have some gems if you are willing to put in the time to search the racks for them. Just be warned: parking is terrible especially at peak times like Saturday and Sunday afternoons.

Purple Flowers

Top: from Banana Republic
Skirt: Old Navy via my sister Jessica
Necklace: Forever21
Bracelet: from a co-worker
Shoes: Sechellyes from Overstock.com


My mom aka photographer of the moment suggested this wall of purple flowers as the background for the picture because it matched my shirt so well! I like this outfit but it isn't a favorite because of the white skirt; I can't wear white without getting some kind of stain on it! I only had to run a few errands and hadn't worn this skirt in months so I decided that it needed to see a little bit of sun (so do my legs because they are almost the color of the skirt! That's why you aren't getting a full body picture.) The skirt is also a bubble skirt , which isn't the most flattering hemline but if it hits the right length then it doesn't look so bad.

Red Hearts

Dress: DownEastBasics
Earrings and necklace: Red hearts, a gift from my friend
Shoes: Bebe 
Tights: Betsy Johnson from Nordstrom's Rack

This is one of my favorite work outfits because the dress is stretchy comfy cotton. The dress is from this store that is all modest clothing but this dress is pretty low cut. That might be why it was on sale because I tried on a bunch of other pieces from the store and they were all really frump - except this one.

The second best part of this outfit is the red lipstick. I love any outfit that begs to be worn with red lipstick. Unfortunately, it seems to attracks some negative attention. Oh well, it's definitely worth it.
