Sandals? Check. Skirt from Middle School? Check. Cute Pictures with Friends? Check :)

What
Skirt: American Eagle
Top: American Eagle
Sandals: Payless
Necklace: Lucky

Where
Classes and work

Why
My grandma bought me this skirt in 7th grade and it is definitely one of my absolute favorite pieces that I still wear all too often in the warmer months. Although I love short skirts, I usually wear longer ones when I'm in class or at work. Yay for warm weather and no need for layering up! And YAY for compliments! Doesn't it seriously make your day so much better?

Also, since I seem to be in the mood for yaying things- yay for pictures with friends :) The first thing Dawn said to me this morning was, "Can I be in your blog today?!" Yes Dawn, you can be in the blog today. In all seriousness though, I really do like her casual Americana look. It shows that all you need to pull off a cute look is some fun accessories and a bright pair of shoes.

Simple Again? Yes, Please.

What
Shorts: American Eagle
Top: Old Navy
Flats: Old Navy
Headband: Forever 21
Turquoise Ring: Bought from Tibetan Monks at a museum

Where
Hanging out during my last day of Easter break, and then flying back to Pittsburgh

Why
I know this look more than a little resembles what I wore yesterday, but again- I was a bad packer for this trip : ( I made sure to wear flats so that I could easily slip them off at the airport, and I chose the floral headband to amp up the in girly-ness in the top- but honestly that's all the thought that went into today's outfit.

I'd love to say I'm super excited to get back to school, because I ALWAYS am... but honestly, I'm dreading going back for this last month. I'd so much rather just stay in TN and start on my internship now (I'll post details as it gets closer!) So I blame my lack of creativity on today's (slightly) sad mood. Better looks to come, I promise!

Girl's Day

What
Skirt: Gap
Top: J. Crew
Belt: Vintage
Flats: Ross

Where
My mom decided to take me out for a girl's day to help with the bad week I've been having. We went shopping, out to eat, and to get facials and haircuts.

Why
Whenever I'm upset, putting on a cute outfit usually helps me feel better. This entire week I've been in a jeans and top slump, and it definitely wasn't helping. Anyways, I got this skirt last year and it's actually been pretty hard for me to match things to. I love it with this embellished top- any other suggestions?
