EBEW : Pastel

Theres not much pastel in my closet. Just a few items here and there. So as much as I would’ve loved to wear a head to toe pastel outfit for this month’s EBEW, this will have to do instead.

Which isn’t a bad thing, because I happen to really really really (like, really) love this outfit. For as much as I love this skirt, I don’t wear it nearly enough as I’d like. I don’t know why. It is one of the items I got during my internship a few years ago. A designer sample sale is awesome, but an employee discount at a designer sample sale? Absolute heaven.

Happy Valentine’s Day, everyone!

Anyone have anything special planned tonight? Boo and I actually celebrated on Sunday, because it was also the day we got engaged, one year ago. And by celebrate, I mean I made Boo go see The Vow with me. Isn’t that what Valentine’s Day is all about - watching mush, girly movies? In my head it is :)

EBEW : Black And White

worn on January 7th, 2011

I wasn’t sure how I felt about this outfit. I’m not really one to wear black and white from head to toe (hence my sneaking in of the chambray collar). But I figured it was EBEW day, so why not. 

Another weird thing about this day? The weather was crazy nice! We got a break from the freezing cold temps, and it warmed up to nearly 50 degrees on saturday. If only it could stay this way…..

EBEW : Sparkle

worn on December 10th, 2011

This months EBEW is sequins and sparkle. Surprisingly, I don’t own anything all sequined (say what?!). Oh wait, I do have sequined Converse All Stars. Whoops. 

But I do also have tops that are blinged out a bit and have some sparkle. This counts, right?

P.S - Check back in a little bit for a super awesome giveaway!

worn on November 6th, 2011

So this is another weekend outfit. On sunday, Boo and I went out for brunch… and then spent the rest of the day cuddled up in our living room fort watching DVRed shows and hockey. And taking naps. Hows that for a lazy sunday?

P.S - its EBEW day! Go check out everyone and their brightly colored legs :)

EBEW: DIY

worn on October 8th, 2011

So many possibilities came to mind when I saw that this months EBEW was DIY. I could’ve easily gone to any of the older projects I’ve done in the past, but I decided to take the opportunity to make something new. Specifically, finally perfect to ruffle blouse I’ve been working on. Granted, its still not exactly where I want it to be, it still needs a few pattern tweaks. But I still think its a step better than the first polka dot one I made ( see here). 

Bonus - the shorts are also a DIY from over the summer. And the bracelet is handmade - come see some of them in my shop!

EBEW: Colored Pants

worn on September 8th, 2011

I really love colored pants. In fact, I’m surprised I only own 3 pairs. I’ve done yellow, red, and orange. I would really like some bright blue ones. Or maybe green. Or purple? Or maybe I should just get one in every color.  

p.s - I won this Loominosity bracelet from Ashley over at I Believe in Unicorns and I’m absolutely smitten with it! I’ve been dreaming up different outfits I can pair it with. They have some amazing bracelets in their shop. You should check them out!

p.p.s - when I went looking for the post for the yellow link above, I was reminded of how I used to go more in depth with my photo editing. I used to have a lot of fun with Photoshop actions, giving my photos different effects. All I really do now is adjust the brightness, contrast, etc. I’m thinking about going back to the more edited way, but I’m having a hard time deciding. If I do it, I want to commit to it. I don’t want to keep going back and forth. What do you think? Which do you like better?

EBEW: Pattern Mixing

worn on August 3rd, 2011

I love pattern mixing. Just love it. No, this isn’t the craziest mix ever - plaid and floral might be pretty simple, but I still love it all the same.

I picked this dress up at Goodwill a couple weeks ago. It reminds me of something I would’ve worn as a little girl in the 90’s around Easter time or something. Maybe it was - I’m pretty sure its actually a girls size.

Mixing Blues and Greens (EBEW: Thrifted)

worn on July 20th, 2011

Boo and I saw Harry Potter again last night for the 3rd time in less than a week. Don’t judge. We are a bit obsessed and we know it. 

Anyway - this skirt was picked up at Goodwill awhile back and it was one of those perfect finds. An obnoxious color of green, and if fit me flawlessly? How could I pass that up.
