Happy birthday to me!

Yep, today is my 23rd birthday. I like birthdays. I mean, that's kind of a dumb thing to say, because most people not having a mid-life crisis enjoy birthdays, but I really like birthdays. What's not to love about a day that's all about me? Haha. I swear, I'm not vain. I just take pictures of the clothes I wear every day and post them on the internet and talk about it. (Not helping, right?)

So anyway, I think I'm going to tweak my 30 items one last time to replace number 3, the teeny black dress, with something else. Not sure what yet, but I only put it in the 30 so I'd have something to wear out tonight. But when I put on this safari/shirt dress thing this morning, I decided this is what I want to wear out tonight. Maybe.

It'd be fun to restyle it from work to play though, right? So I might do that, and update this post with the same dress, going-out-version. We'll see how I feel around 8 tonight, haha.

items: 2, 27
scarf: The Limited
brooch: New York & Company
jewelry: really old bracelet/necklace from Claire's

So this brooch thing came with a great purple shirt I bought from New York & Company when I was shopping for work clothes last summer. I ruined the shirt with bleach (did you know bleach sometimes stays in the washer AFTER the load you use it in?) and had to toss it. Haven't really looked at the brooch since, but I thought it would make a fun hip accent with this scarf-belt. Hooray, remixing!
