My Outfit + Go-To Hair

Dress: Vintage, Sweater: BCBG, Pumps: Jessica Simpson, Sunglasses: Forever 21, Earrings: White’s Jewelry

Lately I have been totally into the high bun. It has always intimidated me a bit because I don’t like to rat my hair. But once I figured out how to do it, I can’t stop! It’s so easy and it can prolong a hair wash for 2-3 days! It also turns any outfit from humdrum to posh. The best tutorial I’ve found is from Beth Jones (here). Do you like these outfit posts or are they annoying?

My Outfit: Tropicana

Dress: TJ Maxx, Sweater: Target, Heels: Maude Shoppe

When I woke up yesterday it was quite nippy. Frost on the windshield even! I said a little prayer for the sun to come out and by the afternoon it was 65 and sunny.

Full Skirts

Isn’t it supposed to get warm this weekend? I think the spring weather calls for a full & ladylike skirt.
