Grey Skinny Jeans

Brown Cropped Jacket Wet Seal | Sequin and Silk Strapless Montespan Top Diane Von Furstenberg (here) | Grey Skinny Jeans 7 For All Mankind | Purple Peacock Earrings and Tan Flats Forever 21This is my casual Friday look. I think this would work going to the movies with friends over the weekend or to go shopping. I love the mix of high and low end items, and the fact that the colors in the background match my top!
Happy Friday and have a great weekend!

Color Block

Turquoise Cardigan Audrey Grace | Pink Sleeveless Dress Theory | Reversible Belt H&M |  Pastel Flower Bib Necklace and Tan Flats Forever 21This feels like a strange outfit to me, and not because my hair probably should have been worn up in a bun. It is a lot of color where almost nothing really goes together at first glance. Then you see the necklace and the rest of the outfit makes sense. I do like that it is slightly hidden because once people noticed it they were like “Whoa!”
This necklace is not new, but I find it to be a timeless piece that can always tie together an outfit. The colors really say look-at-me in a good way. Now to find a way to wear them where they are the center of the outfit and not competing with the colors of the dress or cardigan!

Lace Skirt

Black Shrug, Black Lace Skirt, and Black Vintage InspiredNecklace Forever 21 | Silk Tank J.Crew | Black Patent Peep-Toe Wedges Steve Madden | Black Tote Bag Mulberry for TargetA late night post due to some cupcake making. I am experimenting with candied bacon and maple frosting.
Speaking of experiments, I got my hair cut and am trying out the fringe bangs. I think it will take some time to get used to them (and learning how to style them), but so far I have received a positive response for them. If I really don’t like it I can always pin the short hairs back. It will grow back after all. 
This skirt is near and dear to my heart. I have had it since my first year at Cal, and it has served me well. In my Press tab you can see another way I wore the skirt, and it was what caught the original attention of Brittany from Work it, Berk. Take a look and see how different I looked as well! Feeling like I have grown up since then, and stopped wearing all black.
I love the other elements I mixed into today’s look as well. The J. Crew silk tank is a thrifted find and it had the original tags still attached!

Blue DVF Wrap Dress

Jeanne Wrap Dress Diane Von Furstenberg | Nude Minette Heels Christian Louboutin | Jewelry  Forever 21I have worn this dress before, but I changed up the look with the heels, accessories, and hair. I feel this dress gives off a chic, seventies vibe. 
I cannot get enough of the Diane Von Furstenberg wrap dresses! They just know how to hug ones body and emphasize a small waist! I am planning on going back to the pool and swimming more often, but its nice to know a wrap dress will only highlight your assets. 
Seeing as Fall is right around the corner and I am making a resolution to work out, I actually have updated my hair for the new season as well. The new do will be unveiled in tomorrow’s post, so stay tuned!

Red Skirt

Floral Print Top, Red High Waist Skirt, Tan Flats Forever 21 | Cream Cardigan Wet Seal | Apple Ring  Full Tilt
There is something about red that is so alluring! I wanted to try something new, and I rarely (if ever) wear lip gloss/lip stick/ lip stains. I’m just no good when it comes to applying make-up. I think this color worked well for me.
My outfit was mistaken as a dress, but the red in the top goes so well with the skirt! This is one of my favorite outfits because it is cute and can work for a picnic, lunch, garden party, or even going to a flea market while riding a nice bike! Unfortunately I used it for work, but then again it brightened people’s day with all the color I bring to the office.
I realize I had to keep accessories minimal because of the bright lips and bright colors on my outfit. It made me wonder if I could pull of lip stick with something else. What would you wear lipstick with?
