Carnival

30 July 2011












Meet my new favorite dress! I chose this white wall as the backdrop for these outfit
photos because I wanted this dress to be in the spotlight! I love the pops of color
and the vintage-inspired silhouette. There are tiny little pleats at the waist, and it
flows and blows with even the slightest breeze. Very fittingly it is called the 'carnival'
dress. Dylana pretty much guessed it without even knowing, and said it looks like
I should be holding some cotton candy! I am also in love with this necklace as well,
because it reminds me of the necklace Mia Farrow had in Rosemary's Baby. Freaky
movie, but really cool fashion. I have had a few necklaces like this before but they
have all broke. I have a feeling this one will last.

Ryan arrives later today and I absolutely cannot wait! Hopefully I can trick him
into surprise appearing on this blog again! Have a lovely weekend, lovelies.

Sunny Afternoon

27 July 2011











Sometimes an outfit just makes you want to twirl. I wore this ensemble on a lazy sunday just
hanging out in the park with my friends. I invested in the perfect picnic blanket, so I now
find myself heading to the park any free chance I get. Of course another heat wave is going
to hit this weekend, so I better enjoy my park days while I can. In other news, the boyfriend is
coming to Philly this Saturday and I couldn't be more thrilled
I will be sure to take lots of photos of our adventures.

Hope you all are having a wonderful day!

Little White Dress

24 July 2011

















I love it how sometimes a dress does not even need any accessorizing
and can completely shine on its own. That is how I feel this particular
dress is. I just love the intricate lace and tiered ruffles! I wore this on
what had seriously felt like the hottest day of my life (the heat index
was 120 degrees), but at least this dress kept me somewhat cool. I
spent the weekend in similar outfits trying to make it around the city. Probably
had one million popsicles and cold drinks to cool me down, but hey, what's
summer without a heatwave anyways?

Hope you all had a lovely weekend!

Summer Nights

22 July 2011









This is something I have never posted on this blog... NIGHT SHOTS!
It is a nice little change from the regular back drop that I use and I quite like
the way it turned out. I'll admit that this wasn't done on purpose, but rather
because I was super slow getting ready to go out that night, as usual! Anyways,
I wore this outfit one Friday night getting drinks with some friends. It is difficult
to tell in photos, but these pale pink shorts are actually leather! The first pair of leather shorts
that I own, and I am absolutely hooked. Can't wait to start wearing more in the fall.
Also I have grown quite obsessed with this denim jacket as of
lately. Anytime it is cool enough to wear it at night I always throw it on. Seriously,
it is hard to not feel like a cool kid in leather & a jean jacket.


Well I hope you all are enjoying your Friday and have a lovely weekend!

Modcloth + Dear Creatures!

20 July 2011











Hello lovely ladies and gents. I am so excited to share this Modcloth
+ Dear Creatures dress! It is currently the only one in the world and is up
for votes in Modcloth's 'Be The Buyer' program. So fun, right? I am just
loving the mod 60's vibe this dress has, and of course the peter pan and
double-breasted button detail won me over. If you like what you see, you
can vote for this dress here ! 11 more days to vote folks, so make sure you get
yours in.


Hope you are having a lovely day!

Florals Remixed

18 July 2011











Over the years that I have had these shorts, I still remain totally obsessed with them. You may remember seeing them on this blog before, and I just love the fact that they are so much fun to
remix. Last time I posted them on my blog I was wearing black tights and a chunky cream scarf. Now I am a lace tank and bare legs! Funny how things really change from season to season. Anyways, this past weekend was seriously so much fun. My Texas friends and I went all around Philly, and walked a gazillion miles exploring and seeing as much as possible. We hardly had any down time, but I liked it that way. Below are a few instas from the adventures!

Hope you all are having a lovely start to your week. This one is going to be another busy one for me!

Sunny Skies

16 July 2011











Happy Saturday friends! So glad it is the weekend. I have been so busy this past week with various things, and it feels good to just relax. The past few days I was showing my friends all around Philly and we walked our feet off doing so, but it was so much fun! Went to all of the
historic areas and took them to all my favorite streets and places. So not ready for them to leave! Anyways, I took these outfit pics a little while ago and finally have had the chance to put them up. My midi skirt obsession continues, but I have made a vow to myself to not purchase anymore. I simply will not allow myself. Atleast until fall rolls around...

Well I hope you all are having a lovely weekend!

Sweet Sweet Summer

13 July 2011















Gotta make this post short and sweet because today my two best friends from TEXAS
arrive in Philly! It is so hot these days so wearing light weight shorts like these is all
I have been in the mood for. Luckily at night it gets a little bit cooler though, so I was able to pull out this blazer I got from Ruche. I have been longing for a blush pink blazer for ages so I was jumping for joy when I got this in the mail. Anyways, I will be exploring the city to the fullest with my friends these next couple of days so expect lots of pictures!

Hope you are having a lovely day!
