Printed Skirt

Skirt Topshop/Top Express/ Shoes Aldo/ Bag Chanel

I thought this skirt was really fun and decided to step outside of my comfort zone a bit. I have been getting very excited for Fall and the upcoming holidays. There is nothing better than pumpkin flavored everything, changing leaves, snuggly blankets, and the smell of rain. Have a great day!

In my red high heels...

I always struggle with what to write. I typically write a paragraph about how I am feeling, what I am thinking, some goal that I have, etc., but I always end up deleting it. I know the blog is supposed to be my space, where I can put what I want and not care. However, it can be difficult to open yourself up like that for several reasons...will anybody read it? take it seriously? care? I also realize that I go in cycles with my attitude (not caring, being angry, working hard at be a "good" person etc.). I guess what I am trying to say is that I am not ready to let anybody/everybody/nobody into my crazy little mind like I let those (un)lucky few :) I know that I have said similar things before, so I guess my consistent topic is discussing the difficulty that I have coming up with topics.

I apologize for the lack of a post on Friday. I didn't quite get my stuff together before leaving for our camping trip last week. We enjoyed several beautiful days camping on the beach with friends. We ate, we drank, we had a boys versus girls olympics (of course the girls won), enjoyed the views, and got blown away by the wind. I think my favorite part of the trip was unplugging from the internet/phone and enjoying the company and great outdoors (our makeshift volleyball court was a close second).  I used to hate it when others would be on their IPhones at the dinner table, during social events, etc. and I have found myself partaking in the behavior that I detested so much. Since returning home, I have been making a conscious effort to use all of my devices less. I find that I am a much more pleasant person when I am not caught up in the happenings of others. Maybe I am just crazy :)

I love our backyard, but boy am I tired of seeing it as the background of my photos! It's too bad we don't live in Tahoe, because the scenery is gorgeous there. Thanks for reading :)


P.S. I am linked up today with Lauren, Laura, and Erin today.

I talked about being a host on yesterday's post and I did just that last night with a bunco party! I tried a few different sangria recipes and they all seemed to be a hit! Heading to work after a night of fun is kind of a downer, but at least I only have 8 days left :)

 

p.s. I have worn these wedges three times this week already!

All Dressed Up

Dress Bebe/ Shoes Aldo/ Watch Michael Kors

 

I scored this dress at Bebe on major discount while shopping on my birthday. I have been dying to wear this dress since then and my friend's bridal shower was the perfect opportunity (if you are following me on Instagram, you already caught a glimpse of the dress and the beautiful bride to be). I love the scalloped hem of the skirt, as well as the mint and silver color combo. I paired the dress with one of my favorite pairs of heels. I was running a tad bit late, so I only got a few quick shots. Thanks for reading.

 

Nautical

 

Blouse Old/ Jeans 7FAM/ Necklace JCrew/Shoes Aldo

 

You just can't go wrong with dark denim + white blouse + fab shoes! I am sad that you can't see the ankle strap on the heels and that I didn't get a picture of the back of the shoes.

I decided it was time to put myself out there a bit, so I entered to win the Stylemint-Style For Your City Challenge. I would really appreciate it if you clicked on the link and voted for me :)

Thanks for reading.

Talk nerdy to me...

Shirt Free People/ Trench Express/ Jeans 7FAM/ Shoes Aldo/ Bag UO

The strings hanging down from this top kind of look like suspenders, which I didn't notice until I uploaded the photos. This somewhat nerdy ensemble reminded me of a themed birthday party that Nick and I recently attended, which included dressing up as a high school stereotype. I dressed as a nerd and decided that my actual glasses were nerdy enough, so just added a little tape. When I got there another party goer told me that she bought a pair of nerd glasses for the party too! I just had o laugh, knowing that my actual glasses are rather large.  I also first learned about and participated in a Harlem Shake video. I think I must live under a rock to not have heard about that before a couple weekends ago. 

Side note: I hardly ever straighten my hair, so of course I chose a rainy day to finally do so!
