fancy schmancy

Spring Break: Round Two.
Yep... I get two.
1. Spring break from the U of M.
2. Spring break from job at private school :)

Score!

The only downfall is the massive amount of studying and catch-up I have to do for my exams this week.
Boo.
My pics are pretty cool today however, live from the roof of the Memphis International Airport parking garage.  Take that, sister!

I'm ready to break out my spring/summer dresses already. Hence, the brown maxi featured.
What I'm Wearing: dress: TJ MAXX, belt: TORRID, cardi: LB, scarf: SISTER'S {from Indonesia}, shades: BETSEY JOHNSON, shoes: TARGET

hairstyle: CUP OF JO
this is my first hair tutorial that i have attempted.
i really liked the product, and i got a lot of compliments.
Pretty fab.





Over the weekend, I stretched my boundaries of creativity and went fancy with my nails.
Taking a few tips from my super savvy blog buddy at [oomph]!
It's kinda Barbie-esque, it grew on me really fast.
LOVE it!



Fancy nails + fancy hair-- I'm on a roll.
Have a beautiful Monday!
I'll be sleeping in til noon and making macaroni and cheese :)

    I love this look. I have a couple maxi dresses, but I never really know how to style them. Belt, cardigan, and scarf works for me!

    Love the maxi on you! I've been looking for one in a print, but haven't come across a pattern I like.

    P.s. The romantic updo is adorable!

    P.s.s. I didn't know you worked at a school! Me too! Snaps for us girls who get two spring breaks :)

    Your maxi is absolutely gorgeous on you. LOVE it with that belt + cardy, and that green scarf IS the perfect accent. Hope you had a happy Monday. xx veronika

    aww... that dress... *tries to find the brand-then cries b/c they do not ship to Lithuania* It looks so great, just exactly how the holidays should look like. And the green of the scarf is perfect here. <3 it!

    Love the nails and hair and I totally love that you are rocking the Maxi dress. I wish it were warm enough to pull mine out of hibernation, but it's a thin jersey and it's still in the 30's here :/ You look great!
