3 Ways to Rock Your Frock: Style Remix

Hello Readers! This week has been crazy busy! I have been job hunting(which ended successfully :]), completing illustrator projects (which I will share in another post next week), and getting organized.
Today, I am sharing with you my love for this Forever 21 dress and a Lauren Conrad find from Plato's closet. I start with the Forever 21 dress. It's a pretty simple outfit. Hat Sunnies, dress, tights and booties. An easy, comfy, girly outfit on the go.
Next, Throw on a printed cardigan. It's still fairly simple and fun but a little more funky. I chose this coldwater creek cardy I thrifted many moons ago and it is one of my absolute favorite items to wear this fall.

Last is look Number 3! Dress on Dress. I think it is pretty wise especially in the colder states to layer up. Texas is getting really cool outside, almost like east coast weather and I couldn't be happier! I paired my LC dress with My Forever 21 dress with a cardigan and belted it! I personally enjoy this look. Its a print mixing and matching dream! You can also layer this look with some chunky knit socks to fully complete a warm and fuzzy, yet chic look without going too crazy with color. Although, I think the more color THE BETTER!
HERE ARE ALL THE OUTFIT DETAILS ALONG WITH A PHOTO OF MY FAVORITE PHOTOGRAPHER AND I. HAPPY FRIDAY AND HAVE A GREAT WEEKEND!

Things I Want: Fall Threads

With the weather slowly cooling down and my realization that I have lost an immense amount of weight and cannot fit anything, I have been surfing the web in search of things needed. I want everything in the world but realistically speaking I can not have everything( there just is not enough space for that. I ordered a few things from Wholesale Dress and Ruche. I can't wait to get them and try them on! Also, there are sooooo many dresses I want from Modcloth but I will wait a few weeks and decide what I want because there are just too many things to choose from. Anyway, here are a few things I want/need.

So, I especially want that bell sleeved lace number, and the oversized sweater dress by UNIF. UGH! Just perfect for this fall with some fun tights. For the things I need tights and blouses are very sparse in my closet. For shoes, I had to throw out my old brown boots and need to replace my old ones. Hopefully, I will update this wardrobe disaster that is my closet. SO many clothes to wear but few that actually fit. :'{ What items are you in desperate need of in your closet?

Rain, Rain Go Away


Hello! Its another rainy, cloudy, gloomy Sunday. Feels like painting and illustrating weather. I think I am just going to nest today. Also I am getting a cat today! A Devon rex breed. I have allergies and this is my first trial having a cat. I'm nervous, excited and all mixed up because it's new territory for me. I love cats so much and never was able to have them as a child because my mom has allergies too. So, I really hope this works out because lord knows how long I've wanted a cat. In other news, its been rainy all weekend. Yesterday, I woke up to a cloudy morning so, I took pictures from my garage. I didn't want to get caught out in the pouring rain. Surely enough, while I was shooting it really did start raining! Hard! Thank goodness I brought my umbrella down with me. In the pictures below you can see when it started raining and started coming down hard. If you are having bad weather, stay dry and be careful out on the roads!

2 Ways to Wear Your Denim: Style Remix

Hello AGAIN! Today's remix is all about Denim. I got some nifty colored denim from Plato's Closet. (once my style secret) I wanted to remix it today and with the cooler temps I was able to. I paired it with a collared shirt and a vintage hawaiian print baby doll shift dress I got from Noirohio Vintage back in 2008. I love this print and this dress. I also got to rock my leopard print hat that I haven't worn in forever. I forget where I got that one. I am pretty sure I got it for Christmas or something of the sort.
-Here's how I wore it in a September Blog Post with an orange cardigan, floral shirt and boots.-
-And here is how I wore it today!-
Vintage Hawaiian Print Shift Dress: Noirohio Vintage
Peachy Polka Crop Top: Rue 21
Levi's Cigarette Denim: Plato's Closet @ Greenway Plaza
Belt: Thrifted
Suede Ankle Boots: Target

So, your denim outfit doesn't always have to be a drab jeans and tee look. I am always looking for new ways to wear my closet favorites. You can dress up your denim and look fab in no time! Just find your favorite denim and a few of your favorite dresses then, match them together and voile! New outfit!

On another note I just got home from a lovely dinner with my darling. We went to get pho at our local vietnamese noodle house. Delish! It is always a good choice. Fast Service and delicious food for a great price. Here are the rest of my oufit photos and dinner date pictures.
Happy Wednesday!
Finally, I have officially received my grants for my last semesters in college! Yay! I'm almost done and I couldn't be happier! Hence, the picture below. ;)
