Day 10 - Just Saying Hi

Februaury 10th, 2011

dress (worn as top): Forever21, pants: Urban Outfitters, shoes: Keds via Buffalo Exchange

30 for 30 remix, day 10: I’ve been busy all day cleaning, packing, working, and what not before tomorrow nights flight. But I remembered to get just a few outfit pictures in quick. If you recall, this is actually a dress. A little strategic tucking, folding, and belting - and I was wearing a top. Simple and easy for not much going on today. 

Day 9 - Here Comes The Sun

February 9th, 2011

tee: Delias, skirt: Anthropologie, socks: Express, wedges: Madden Girl, hat: Forever21, coat: DKNY

30 for 30 remix, day 9: Today was very deceiving. The sun was shining bright and it looked so gorgeous outside. But when I stepped out for photos, it was a lot colder than it had been the last few days. Brrrrr. The things we style bloggers will do. 

I can’t believe so many of bloggers out there are in NYC now for fashion week. I’m so jealous. But while everyone else is heading to New York, I’ll be heading to Orlando. Which is pretty cool too. I’m trading in fashion for warmer weather and Harry Potter World. Sounds good to me! So I’m going to get back to finishing some projects up and working on my packing. It takes me weeks to pack. I’m constantly evaluating and adjusting what I’m taking right until the last night. siiiigh.

Day 8 - Everybody, Everywear: Blazer

February 8th, 2011

blazer: Express, top: Anthropologie, shorts: JCrew, tights: Urban Outfitters, boots: Forever21

30 for 30- day 8: Its another Everybody, Everywear day! I have a few different blazers, but seeing as I didn’t have much to do today other than work at home and run to the post office, I chose this one. It is actually knit and feels like I’m wearing a sweatshirt. It is so comfortable! Not much going on today, just working and getting ready for Orlando.

Hey! I’m sure everyone has already seen it, but Sydney is having a THEIT camera bag giveaway. I adooooore this bag. Its perfect for us style bloggers who are always carrying our cameras on us. So don’t forget to enter the giveaway!

Day 7- Awkward OR Awesome?

February 7th, 2011

sweater: Gap via Buffalo Exchange, skirt: Diane von Furstenberg (sample sale), dress (ruffles): Ann Taylor Loft, tights: ?, shoes: Christian Louboutin

30 for 30 remix, day 7: So, Sydney does awkward and awesome thursdays. But today I’m doing awkward OR awesome? day. Because thats thats what I asked myself when I looked at my outfit in the mirror today. I layered the sweater and skirt over my chartreuse dress until all you could see over it was the big ruffles at the neck. Big ruffle-y chartreuse yellow shoulders. I eventually went with awesome. But you can be the judge. 

I actually didn’t have anywhere important to wear this outfit today. After my comfortable, yet kind of blah, outfit yesterday, I really wanted to get all dressed up today. But I didn’t have anywhere to go. Did that stop me? of course not. So yes, I did wear this to run my errands today. I felt fancy. This skirt was another one of my super amazing employee sample sale purchases when I was DVF. I adore it. 

P.S - I can’t get enough of Glee’s Thriller/Heads Will Roll mash-up. Such a good episode.

Day 6 - Rainbow Explosion

January 6th, 2011

tee: Urban Outfitters, shirt: Urban Outfitters via Buffalo Exchange, jeans: BCBGeneration, shoes: Keds via Buffalo Exchange, headband: Anthroplogie, necklace: Beads in the Belfry

30 for 30 remix, day 6: This was a pretty weekend-y outfit. Just eh. So I thought I would spice it up the photos with the backdrop. After some laundry and cleaning, Boo and I went on a little adventure to this ally that I remember walking by. Its all graffiti-ed up and it has rainbow stained glass above it. Super colorful and really cool. I just hope theres no gang related graffiti in this. That would be weird. And not cool. 

I’m not into football. I actually don’t get it at all (hockey I get, football… not so much). So no super bowl for me. My sunday night is going to involve sewing, maybe some sketching, a yummy dinner, and then the new Glee episode! 

Day 5 - Happy Happy Weekend

February 5th, 2011

sweater and boots: Forever21, shirt: Gap via Buffalo Exchange, pants: Urban Outfitters, necklace: gift from my mommy

30 for 30 remix- day 5: Not much to say today- just having a relaxing saturday. So I’m going to get back to sitting on the couch with my bag of chips and a movie. Hope everyone is having a happy weekend!!

Oh yeah, these are the type of moments Boo managed to capture today. Just thought I would share one…..

Day 4 - Date Night

January 4th, 2011

dress: Forever21, sweater: Anthropologie, socks: Express, wedges: Christian Louboutin, flower bracelet: Janet Rhodes, amber bracelet: Vintage (grandma’s)

30 for 30 remix-day 4: Yaaaaaay I’m outside. Thank god - I really hate taking indoor pictures. The lighting is terrible. Not that this is the absolute best either. I got all the way to the park only to see that none of the paths were cleared. Except for one. But that one was both a sheet of ice and really shadow-y. But I walked all the way there and, gosh darn-it, I was going to take the photos there. 

I’ve also played around with the look of the photos today too. Something a tad different than as of late. I can’t help it - photoshop is too much fun. I love playing around with all the different effects. 

So tonight is Friday night date night. Wohoo! So thats what I’m all dressed up for. I don’t usually wear this dress as is because it is suuuuper short. I usually wear a skirt over or under it. But hey, I thought I’d give it a go. At least I’m wearing tights, so my bum would’nt be completely exposed. 

I hope. 

Day 2 - Surprise!

February 2nd, 2011

tee: Urban Outfitters, skirt: Anthropologie, scarf: NYC street vendor, tights: Express, pin: Vintage (my mommy’s), boots: Vince Camuto

30 for 30 remix, day 2: Oh, snow. You really need to stop now. I think we have plenty of you. We are kinda running out of places to put you. BUT, at least Boo had a snow day today - so I had a photographer. Yaaaay. 

SO….. guess what?! We just found out that in two weeks we will be going to Orlando for a week! Yes, in the middle of the winter I will be heading to Florida. Fortunately, a good number of my items can eaaaasily work for warmer weather (thank you, me, for picking shorts as part of a winter remix). The only switch-er-roo I’m making is in the shoes. I’m going to forget the oxfords:

and add a pair of sandals:

So yeah, this remix just became a wee bit harder. But hey, challenge accepted. A little weather change can’t scare me! Harry Potter World, here I come…..

Day 1- Shorts and Snow Storms

-

February 1st, 2011

sweater: Gap via Buffalo Exchange, shirt: Zara via Buffalo Exchange, shorts: JCrew, tights: Anthropologie, boots: Forever21, necklace: by me!-  HollyDoll

The snow is coming down pretty good right now, and its a bit much for this little girl and her tripod. So indoor pictures it is. Hopefully I can get out to get some good winter wonderland photos sometime this week. 

But anyway… here we go! The challenge begins. I’m actually pretty excited for this 30 for 30. I think I’m kicking it off pretty well. What do you think? I went for it pretty good on the first day with a little plaid, floral, and leopard mixing. And shorts on the first day of the big snow storm? Eh, why not :) 

30 for 30 Winter Challenge Items

8 tops

1 blazer, 5 sweaters

2 dresses

8 bottoms (2 pants, 1 pair of shorts, 5 skirts)

6 pairs of shoes (2 boots, 2 flats, 2 heels)

See those little babies I so cleverly photoshopped in all the way to the right? They should be coming in the mail by the end of the week. I’m so excited!

I’m not going to do another outfit post before the 30 for 30 starts Tuesday. I’ve been way too comfortable hanging out and working in my sweatpants. But I’ll have another shop update tomorrow, and then tuesday the challenge begins!
