What I Wore: Birthday Dinner

what I wore: dress – vintage via grey dog, heels – forever21, earrings/ear cuff – claire’s

I love everything about this fun 90s dress, especially the back, so it was the perfect choice for a Tuesday evening birthday dinner.

What I Wore: Spotted

what I wore: blouse – thrifted {similar here}, pants {similar here} – paulnkc via maude, heels – bcbg, earrings – vintage via mae’s, sunnies – gas station {similar here}
Here’s a little peek at the teasing that’s involved for this giant-bun.

And the rest…

What I Wore: Bare Bones

what I wore: top – target, pants – paulnkc via maude boutique, heels – bakers, earrings – forever21, ear cuff – claire’s

While I’m definitely not a minimalist when it comes to dressing, sometimes less really is more. My favorite way to do “bare bones” is definitely in black.

What I Wore: White Collar

what I wore: pants – paulnkc via maude boutique, top – banana republic, collar necklace – urban outfitters, heels – qupid
Hallelujah! I’ve been looking for pants like these for years. It’s difficult to find both high waist & wide leg in an affordable trouser. Maude Boutique in Fayetteville has done a great job with these and I can see myself wearing them way too often.

What I Wore: Polka Dots & Python

what I wore: dress – vintage via grey dog, platforms – bamboo via tj maxx, also here, belt – forever21

Isn’t this such a fun little number? I knew it would be perfect with my $10 platforms.

What I Wore: Entrenched

what I wore: dress – banana republic, heels – kelsi dagger, ring – forever21, nails – maybelline orange fix, lips – covergirl lip perfection fairy tale
I’ve had this dress forever but I still love it. I like to pull it out when I want to feel especially polished without exerting a lot of effort.

What I Wore: Psychedelic

what I wore: dress – cheap thrills (also seen here), heels – jessica simpson, necklace – forever21, lipstick – CoverGirl Lip Perfection in Fairytale
This is dress is one of my favorite finds. I love the silhouette, the neckline, the length and the color! I’ve also been totally into a bright pink lip lately. Spring makes me want to experiment with color. Hope you’re having a great day!

What I Wore: White on White

what I wore: blazer – banana republic, dress – gianni bini, heels – jeffrey campbell, sunnies – gas station

I love a polished look. I thought the white sunnies and the white platforms added just the right amount of funk to an otherwise tailored look.
