Re-shoot

T-shirt, shoes: Old Navy
skirt: secondhand
necklace: Forever 21
If I were a serious, full-time style/fashion blogger, I'd be too embarrassed to tell you the truth about this outfit. But I'm just some chick who uses her little corner of the internet for pictures of her clothes and DIY projects. So the truth is, I actually wore this outfit back in June, never photographed it, then re-created it to take photos like two months later. Oops?

I wore this to a quadruple-birthday party; four of our friends have birthdays within a week of each other, so we usually celebrate with one big party. The bright pink skirt, seemed perfect for a nighttime soiree. I couldn't figure out how to style this skirt, so I went with the classic add-a-white-T-and-go method. Never fails!

(P.S. That third photo up there? It was supposed to be my "model" face. I'm so cool.)

Update: My friend Kathryn was observant enough to remember that I wore my pink flower clip thing in my hair at the party. Seeing as how I'm a horrible perfectionist, I had to say something. I may or may not Photoshop the flower into these pics and repost them, haha. Thanks for the reminder, girl!

Summer cold

shirt, skirt: secondhand
necklace: InPink
shoes: Payless

I wore this last Saturday to a friend's housewarming party. I may or may not have obnoxiously counted down the minutes to my birthday, starting at 11:55 pm. Hey, I get excited about birthdays. And when there's alcohol involved, well...I get really excited. My friends were super sweet and, despite how annoying I'm sure I was, they all sang me "Happy Birthday" at the stroke of midnight. It made my whole night.

Do you ever get summer colds? I seem to get one every year, and this year's wasted no time...it's the first day of summer and I'm stuffy, achy, groggy and blah. I only made it through the work day by heading to the drugstore and dropping $20 on cold medicine. I have a full weekend ahead of me...I'm gonna go ahead and call that money well spent!
