Crazy Pattern, Pastels, and Wedges..

I've gone back into my "Wear these things or get rid of them pile" for this outfit. I got the skirt during winter time, so it's not really fair of me to threaten that when it hasn't even been the right weather for it. But I think today proved to me that I will definitely get plenty of wear out of it, so I think we're safe on that one. The top I got because the pattern is really interesting and dynamic.. but that's given me a hard time finding something to pair it with. Luckily today was perfect weather for this skirt, so I decided to pick out the pink and yellow from the top and play off of that, while leaving my shoes a neutral. I think it turned out pretty well. :) 

This cardigan is something I have to tell myself NOT to wear sometimes. It's just so darn cute, and is the perfect shade of yellow. I think I could find something to wear it with every single day of the week. But you would get sick of that, so be glad I can tear myself away from it sometimes. But it was just too perfect to not put with this top and skirt. Also, I think we're officially to No-Tights Weather now. I have to get used to exposing my leg skin again. Oh No! 

Wedges are definitely going to be go-to shoe wear until it starts getting cold again, I think. I have an issue with heels.. even though they are insanely cute usually, and make outfits more interesting.. I just have really terrible pain in the balls of my feet sometimes that doesn't sit well with anything with a heel on it. However, wedges help take some of the pressure off that area of my foot, so they don't hurt nearly as bad, and I haven't found a wedge I don't like. So I'm starting up a collection. haha. So yes, lots of floral(of course), Lots of color combined with neutrals, and lots of wedges! I just love spring. What will be your go-to items for this beautiful season?

That brings my outfit total to about SIXTY CENTS. Give or take a few. Dang, that's thrifty. :) 

Black, White and Red (All Over).

Like my super clever title? Yeah, I thought that up all on my own. Kind of like this outfit. A lot of thought was put into it. (not really.. at all)

haha. At least I'm honest. I've been wanting to wear this top for quite some time, but I just couldn't get it to look right with anything, so I gave up and threw on leggings. I am hoping that the opposite polka dots underneath create some type of interest. And of course, when all else fails.. throw on some red lipstick. :) 

 It is starting to feel like fall here, finally. In case you were wondering. We had about a day and a half of miserably gross, cold, rainy weather.. and now it's been pretty sunny and only in the 60s. So it's nice to finally feel on track with the year. I wasn't freezing during these pictures, but if you're going to be outside for any long amount of time, you would need at least a light jacket. Although, I think it's gonna be back in the 70s this weekend. haha. Oh, Texas.
Oh.. and be ready to see these boots.. A LOT. I can't help it. They're comfy, and they go with pretty much everything that I've been wearing. Which is weird, because until this year I've always shied away from black, but now I can't get enough of it. I don't understand.

Hello November!

 It still doesn't feel like fall here. Texas is crazy. It was like, 80 degrees yesterday. Halloween! yeah. I don't get it, either. And then about 75 all day today. The only reason I'm even wearing tights is because I know once the sun goes down it'll be a bit too chilly for bare legs. But you still definitely don't need a coat!

 I got both this dress and the shirt in one of those, shove clothes in a bag and we'll sell it to you for really cheap, sales. It was 4 bucks a bag. I figured each piece of clothing probably cost me about 40 cents. Awesome. :) This is just a simple little spaghetti strap dress, but I really loved the patchwork pattern and amazing fall colors. I don't really have a lot to say on this one. It's just a cute, simple look. And I'm pretty excited about it. I did decide to go through with the 30 for 30 challenge, so you'll be seeing the things I've picked out this weekend. I'm kind of nervous. But I think it'll be okay. I'm still having a lot of what-ifs about the things I have tentatively decided on.. it might change a couple of times before the weekend arrives. haha. Oh well.

Guess Who's Back, Back Again!

I've been having some technical difficulty lately. In my life, and literally as in my laptop crapped out on me. Apparently my specific model of HP laptop has an issue with the NVIDIA graphics card and after so long it glitches out and there's no fixing it beyond getting a new hard drive, i.e. expensive. Or sending it to a company that can mod it and fix it for you, also a tad bit expensive, but once I have the money saved up for it I will definitely be choosing that option. So for now I have taken advantage of my boyfriend's wonderful generosity and I'm using his cute little iBook for the moment. Thanks babe!

Due to the technical difficulties in life, outfit photos have been the last thing on my mind, but a few days last week I did take a few pictures, and finally got around to putting them all together, editing and planning and what not today, so I'll have a few posts ready to go for you all for a few days this week at least. yay! I can't even describe how much I've been missing this place. ughh.

So anyway, on to the outfit? Yes. You've seen this shirt before here. I decided to make it a little more casual with the cuffed jeans and these AMAZING shoes I got last week! I've been searching high and low for some sandals very similar to these, and they were only 8 bucks. You know I love a steal, and I couldn't give a hoot about what is on the label. So let's play a fun little game, okay? Take a good, close look at these beauties and try to guess where I got them from. I will be surprised if anyone guesses right. haha.
