Strangely Familiar.. (Pink Skirt, DIY Scarf, Rose Pattern)

Yes, I just wore this skirt not too long ago, but after wearing it that first time, I want to pair it with everything! It's sooo comfy, and goes well with a lot of stuff. But really, I just made this T-shirt scarf that I found out about through Made This/Love This that was started by the awesome Indiana, of Adored Austin. :] And I wanted something simple and easy to wear it with. Ta-da!

I tied it in a knot, because untied it was too long, and doubled up it was too short and bulky. So I thought this way solved the problem pretty well. It was suuuuper easy to make, and i want some in all different colors and lengths now!!

Have you tried any DIY projects lately? I'd love to hear about them! :]

Short Skirt, Long Jacket..

I know, I know.. but I couldn't help it. Who doesn't love a little Cake on a Monday afternoon? :) 

Also.. what the heck happened to our awesomely  warm weather here, Texas?! Sheesh. It only got up to about 46 degrees yesterday (which is when I took these pictures). I could see my breath when I was out there. blech. BUT! It was kind of a blessing, because I had worn this outfit last month some time, and didn't get pictures.. I love this jacket, SO much. But it got too warm for me to wear it, way too quickly. So I quickly pulled it out of my closet yesterday and snapped a few photos before going out to dinner with some friends. 

When I found this jacket, I instantly fell in love.. I got it for ridiculously cheap at a thrift store, duh. haha. But then I started wondering what in the world I would wear a BRIGHT blue, long jacket with. So I decided to keep my actual outfit very low-key, and threw on the scarf for some pattern. I think it turned out pretty well, and was great for a night of Buffalo Wild Wings. hah. :]

Numero Tres.

 I just made cookies. :) To be fair, they were the alreadymadebreakthemapartandputthemonapanandbake kind of cookies. But it still counts, right? Yeah, I thought so, too. And while I'm being honest.. I don't really like these photos, either. Since the weather has been so warm still.. Our covered, wooden porch is still crawling with wasps, which are my biggest fear, and I was trying to work around them. But ya gotta do, what ya gotta do. And I feel behind a little bit, already. So here is outfit number three. And no, I did not wear it last night, and then again today to go meet my grandmother for lunch, who does that? Oh, me.

 Yes, I met my Gran ( my dad's mom) in Denton this morning to catch up a bit. We haven't seen each other in about five years, so it was really nice to get a few hours of chat time. We had a lovely time touring the UNT campus (our cousin is dean of the journalism school..which I might apply to) and then going to this neat little place off campus called Mr. Chopsticks. She's vegetarian, so I picked it out for the simple fact that they have over 20 different veg-friendly items on the menu. I had sushi. :) yummm.

 This scarf was actually cut off of a shirt (number 13 in my 30 list). But I wanted to be able to wear the shirt with other things that the scarf might not go with, so I just cut it off, and voila! Two separate items. haha Very clever, no? Now I can wear the scarf with my dress.. How awesome.

Items number 19, 27 and 29.

I don't have a whole lot to say about this outfit, once again. It's kind of a cop-out. haha. I'm just so scared of getting bored half-way through. That's why this is my first time doing the challenge. Next time I'll be a seasoned pro. :)
