Remix

Before I Showed this blazer as part of an outfit for a more warm weather look. Now that it is January and we had our first big snow I want to give a more practical and kind of casual way to wear a bright blazer with still stick to my sort of style.Here I am wearing My teal blazer with layered black and white tank tops, jean shorts with black tights and utility boots. I accessorized with silver and grey. This could easily be done with pants and boots or a skirt/ tight combination. whatever fits one’s personal style. I am just more comfortable with tights and shorts, or in jeans.

Blazer and Tights- Forever 21. Scarf, Shorts, Black Tank, and boots- Wet Seal. White Tank- Bella. Jewelry- Pac Sun, Gifts, and the necklace I made.

Potato Stampin'

During this Holiday break I spent a night with friends in Tremont having a little get together drinking, eating, and making potato stamps. Potato stamps? What are those? well, it’s stamps that we carved out of potatoes of course!We got together at Elisabeth’s where she supplied potatoes, x acto knives and paint and a stamp makin’ we went!

Stamp making is as simple as cutting a potato in half, carving an image into it, painting it, and stamping it on paper! So easy, and very fun. Add some spirits and a couple of immature, I mean creative, people and it gets even better!



Sara, Mallory and Kelly Carving

Everyone’s stamps!(glasses, weiner dog, rose, mustache, boobs, skull and crossbones, top hat and monocle)

We decided taking shots out of potatoes was a good idea. Potato Shots!



Rings of all the ladies.

Elisabeth, Mallory and I out at the bars.

Gotta Have Faith

Gotta have faith
I forgot my cross earring! OK, so I am not really that into George Michael,
at all. However, he is kind of all I think about when I see this outfit.
I have been dreaming of a bright blue blazer for a long time, so when I found
this at Forever 21, my life was complete..not really. I do like to color
blocking with this blazer, however i’m all about a monochromatic look. It’s
really easy to accomplish, just choose one bright color for an accent with
blacks, whites, and grays.
easy, chic, and clean.
Blazer and ring- Forever 21, Jeans and tank-Wet Seal, shoes-Charlotte Russe,

Frock Party 4

This past Saturday we had our forth Frock Party! For those who don’t know a
frock party is a clothing swap. My friend Elisabeth and I host on every fall and
spring season. We have friends come over to shop through old clothes that the
other girls no longer want. the conditions are gently used and regarding the
season in which we host the party, so in this case it was fall winter
clothes.
Each girl brought 5-10 items to swap for and we separated the clothes and
accessories into price ranges that they belonged and we chose from there. A girl
shopped in each price section at one time so people wouldn’t get bored, while
others sat and drank and ate.
Whenever a couple of girls would both want the same item we would have a walk
off. Kelly and I had a walk off over a black cardigan with gold chain trim.
Sadly, she won. But I got a gold chain purse to make up for it.
In the ended we tried to round up everyone to pick out their favorites to get
a picture with them, however it was the end of the night and there was a lot of
wine and beer, so not everyone was as cooperative. Then we all went out for
drinks and eventually the most amazing pizza with honey crust.
Each one is getting better and better! hopefully it can become big enough to
get giant group of girls together!

Frock Party

Today is me and my friend Elisabeth’s 4th annual frock party. We will be very
busy putting it together today with snacks and clothing set up! I’m really
excited that this has been an on going thing for us and hopefully it can
continue and eventually become big enough to have at a venue. Possibly one at
Musica!
Be on the look out for our frock party post! but in the mean time! Here is a
kimono style blouse I got from Forever 21 that I’m pretty excited about. It
actually hangs open, but I belted it for this outfit.

Brown and Black

AT LAST! I have a working computer! So after 6 years with a dinosaur of a
dell, I now have a little Hp! so that means more styles/styling tips/personal
style.
I feel like in every girls style there is a neutral that she would probably
lean towards more, brown or black. I have always preferred black my self and
envied girls who wore brown so well. After growing up a little with my style I
realized my love for the combination of both.
It is said that brown and black are taboo, and you generally aren’t supposed
to mix them( as well as brown and navy, brown and grey). It is a lie. They pair
together perfectly, and really, any of these do! These are all neutrals so they
can all work together!
Working at Wet Seal it amazes me how much I actually have to explain this to
women. You can wear brown and black together! For those women who think i’m
crazy or are scared of this combo, I give them the perfect print to throw into
the mix: Leopard Print! It is obvious that it matches both neutrals, and it
actually helps the girls who are afraid of leopard too. It helps them where
animal print in a toned down way!
Here I use a skinny leopard print belt to seperate my brown chiffon blouse
with my black skinny jeans. I use a cognac colored envelope clutch(NOTO) to accesorize with and black
pointy-toed flats. Jewelry is something I am picky and scarce with, you might
even notice this in my other posts. I have peices that I love with pops of
interest to me and usually repeat them over and over again. Here I am wearing my
twisty ring that can also be a bracelet, which I wear every day, my turquoise
ring for a pop of color, and my brown tassel chain necklace.
