white washed (wo)menswear

How are you doing this early morning?
I am a little washed out, out of focus, & overexposed.
But hey, it's only Tuesday...
I love reaching for black skinny pants and a WBD, kinda like the casual tuxedo.
Throw in a striped cardigan, that I am pretty sure two relatives of mine wanted to steal off my back... and you've got a parfait of practical, femme menswear.
But enough about me...
{pants: gap | button down: vintage | sweater: thrifted | leopard flats: payless}


I'm feeling pretty girlie lately... last night I watched Dancing with the Stars (who are you rooting for? I can't make up my mind between Carson and David), 2 Broke Girls (the blonde makes me laugh so stinkin' hard), and Tia & Tamera (long time fan, can't deny it) all whilst playing with my huge pile of free goodies, sample & full size, from Ulta!
If you don't have an Ulta near you... it's like a drugstore and Sephora had a beautiful love childI just went in for eyeshadow and polish remover- I came out with a cosmetic bag full of girlie goodness.
Pile on the left, I bought... the right: free swag.

It's okay to have a completely girlie squeal over that stuff, right?
Now, maybe we can do something about this hair....

  2. So cute I totally dig the masculine feminine look.
    Question: how are the gap skinny jeans? Currently looking for a pair that doesn't suffocate my calves while fitting my waist...it's a mean world out there....

  7. Oh hi I got myself a new e.o.s. at Ulta yesterday, too. Get outta my brain! ;)

    Do you feel like a teacher in your outfit today? You look like a super snazzy one!

    P.S. I forgot to mention how much I laughed at the vlog yesterday when you said "Catch a bubble." I am a major proponent of "HANDS UP CHEEKS OUT!" Hahaha.

  9. Rachel- It was a gift from the thrifting gods for SURE!
    Dani- I really did feel teacher-y minus the whole wearing white around little kids just isn't advisable, they are silly.
    Sav- Voting for Derek is a good thing this season, he's with Ricki Lake and she's adorable!

  12. I love this pink cardigan! It's so preppy cute :)

    I have been wanting to go to ULTA forever, but only recently did we actually get one where I live! I haven't gone yet. Actually, I'm not sure it's even open yet, but I know I'll go crazy when I go there!
