Hello High Heels


{Dress: Old Navy, $4}
{Sweater: Old Navy, $9}
{Tights: American Eagle, $3}
{Scarf: Old Navy, $9}
{Necklace: Forever 21, gift}
{Shoes: Target, $12}

Although I wore heels almost everyday in high school, I could count on one hand the amount of times I've pulled out a pair for classes in college. Not that I'm terrible with walking in heels- but the over casualness of my school has gotten me to choose comfort 9 times out of 10. Like this outfit (not including the shoes), the dress might very well have been meant to be worn as a nightgown and the sweater is pretty much just a blanket with sleeves. Oh yes, this is a Friday outfit.

Have a good weekend everyone!

Today I felt kind of vintage girly, like Julie. The other day I felt kind of tough, all black and leather. And then I also felt modern, trendy, girly, and whatever other adjective that you could use to describe style. I've never been a singular style type of person because I've always liked different styles so much that I could never settle on just one. This used to bother me. I think it bothered me because I would always see people who had their own styles- always vintage or modern or bohemian. I felt like because I didn't have my own personal style that I was just a copier, or uncreative, or indecisive. What I've come to realize though is that just because I don't stick to certain things doesn't mean I'm any of those negative adjectives above. I love being able to be completely different from day to day, and THAT, the ever changing but still a little the same, that's my personal style.

Dear Snow, Thanks for Ruining My Hair Today (29 and 30!)

I actually planned to wear this outfit awhile ago, but it looked a bit too much like sixteen. So to mix it up a bit I added blue tights and this necklace I got on clearance from Urban Outfitters. Speaking of that, I have to tell you about my biggest letdown recently... When Greg and I went to Atlanta we stopped by their incredible mall and I practically sprinted to the UO store. I've only shopped online and never actually been in one, so I was SO excited. I love the online store, I always find cute jewelry, dresses, and other stuff for cheap sale prices. To my dismay, the store was filled with a ton of people, and a ton of overpriced boring/odd things. Maybe its just one of those places that's a hit and miss for my style?


New Year's Eve- THIRTY!

In real life I actually wore this with my polka dot tights and white blouse. However, my tights got left at home (!!) and my shirt has a coffee stain. So here's my other restyle. I think I might actually like this one better; it really makes the necklace stand out. And the necklace- love it. I mentioned to Greg's family a few days before Christmas that I left all my jewelry at school, and on Christmas morning I opened some really cute necklaces from them :) Normally I mix it up constantly and don't re-wear the same pieces too often, but I think I've worn every other day this week.

To all of you who have watched, supported, and commented during the 30 for 30 challenge, thank you! Hopefully I'll get a summary post done this time around...
