Off the Air

Happy Monday!
I fell in love with this dress when I saw it. I had to have it. Not to mention it was 20% off. Uh, yea! 
So when I wore it, it wasn't what I expected. And of course, it didn't look the same on me as it did on the model. I had to add the belt so it didn't make me look like a whale throughout the day. But I did add pics of what it looks like without the belt.

(Btw, as I was writing this post, this dress reminded me of those colored blocks you see on your tv in the middle of the night when the channel goes off air. You know what I'm talkin about..)

And without the belt..

Maybe it's not too bad, but it looks weird to me. The dress has very thin material. I'm more of a bodycon gal, so having an item flow off my whole body sure didn't feel right.  It makes me look pregnant. Blah.

Happiness Can Be Found, Even In the Darkest of Times

Wassup!? Let me tell you guys about this tee. I stalked it until they had my size. And this is actually a guys tee! Why are the best HP tee's out AFTER the movies have been over and done with?! There's another I want but of course, my size isn't available. All of your fav spells in one shirt! I paired it with my ever faithful maxi and added some pearls and bling to glam it up. 

Btw, the weather is doing a bang-up job of warming up. But i'ma need FL to hurry the process. Especially in the mornings. Brrr...

Me either.

Have a great weekend!

The Last of the Pink Twirly Skirt

It's the first day of March! Where is the time going?! I feel like we just rang in the new year. I've been slacking the past week or so with the posts, but work is picking up for Spring Break plus I signed up for the gym so time is getting the best of me. Forgive me!

This is my last post featuring this skirt, so I decided to do a Day/Night look with it. I absolutely love these lucite heels my MIL got me for Christmas. I can't wait to wear them more when the weather gets nice.  Hope you all have a great rest of the weekend!

The Oversized Sweater

It's Friiiiiiday! I hate posting later in the day, but after work and errands it's the best I can do. I can't believe I upheld the promise to myself to post 3 days a week (Mon, Wed, Fri). GO ME!

This is the second time I've worn this sweater on the blog. It's so comfy and I got it one size up so it'd be oversized. It's starting to get fuzzy so idk how much longer it's gonna last. It's so cute and I love it. :(  I made the outfit simple with some basic skinny jeans and these Sam & Libby heels from Target. So cozy!

Hope you all have a great weekend!

Pink & Polka Dots

On Wednesdays we wear pink. Ok, so I actually wore this yesterday but whatevs. You get the picture. Troy got the day off yesterday so we took a drive to the beach. Ah, it was lovely. It's great to get there before all the tourists do (or when they leave). It's not crowded so you basically have the beach to yourself. It wasn't too hot to go swimming, but warm enough to chill in the sand for a few. (Btw, I hate sand.) 

This is the second time I've worn these polka dot pants and I LOVE them. They're so comfy AND high-waisted, so of course I had to wear it with a crop top. I love how these photos came out. My new camera is so awesome!

Cobalt & Neon

Happy Monday everyone! This post was originally supposed to be up on my lunch break but eh, shit happens.  Can you tell I finally used my new camera!? Y'all, I am so in love I think my husband's even jealous. I just have to find a good picture hosting site to make them larger, yet keep them crisp.

I've had this outfit laid out for a couple weeks. I love this cobalt skater dress from F21. It's my 2nd time wearing it and it feels like heaven. I paired it with some neon and my moto jacket to give it that edgy look. I'm trying to wear this jacket as much as possible cause the weather is about to get real funky within the next few weeks. Then I used my white purse hubby got me for Valentines Day for an extra pop. How do you guys like this look?

Valentine's Day Lookbook Outfit #3

Hey everyone! Happy Valentine's Day! I hope everyone had a great day with their special one. Mine had this cute bag waiting for me when I got out the shower this morning. I was so excited I emptied my contents from my brown tote into this one! I couldn't wait to carry it around! He said he figured I'd like white over black because I have white everything and it'd fit right for Spring. He knows me so well!

So here's the third and final outfit for my V-Day lookbook. There I go with the peplum top again! I wanted to wear something black or pink and can you believe I couldn't find a thing in my closet?! It was terrible. This was actually the second outfit in mind. The first one..eh, let's just say I need to hit the gym STAT! So, can you believe this skirt was only 6.80 at F21?! Yea, pretty much a steal! I love that it's so form fitting and shows off my curves. I paired it with these simple ankle strap heels (I wore boots to work) and this cute rhinestone necklace. So simple and classy!

P.s- This will be the last post with these super blurry pics. Check out my Instagram to see what kind of camera I bought! See you guys on Monday!

Leopard Love

It's February! The month of looooove! I'm so excited! Troy and I decided to go out this year for V-Day for dinner or something. This would be the Valentines together, so we're dropping Bray off at a sitter somewhere and taking advantage of it. This month, I've decided to incorporate as much red, white, and pink into my outfits as I can. I own little of those colors so hopefully I expand my closet a little in the process.

I've been waiting for F21 to get a red cardi in for the longest. I swear I have every other color and now that I have red..I'm done. I promise. They're perfect for the weather here in FL. And who can deny a $8.80 cardi?! Oh, and let's talk about these jeans! $9.80 at F21! High-waisted! I'm in love. I love wearing high-waisted bottoms with crop tops. I don't have the gut for it, but who cares. I know my limits. I also don't own much animal print, but guess how much I scored this top for? $4! It was an additional 50% off the sale price. Sweet!
