Denim & Paisley

 {paisley printed dress: charter club via Gwynnie Bee | denim jacket: jc penney | boots: nine west | belt: lane bryant}

This dress is normally something I would never pick out! It's a little too preppy and the real test of that was wearing it to work and the certain people who LOVED it! It is so funny to me!  The preppy dressers totally adored the print and the cut.  I'm a paisley fan, sure, so I took a chance with it by putting it in my closet on Gwynnie Bee.  I loved wearing it with the boots and the denim jacket, and it was fun playing prep for a day! Now, I won't define my every day style in to one certain genre, but I think I like my preppiness to just be a dash or a sprinkle in the outfit.
Do you define your closet with one word? Or do you make up an ensemble with a dash of this and a dollop of that?  Tell me, my chickens!

easter eggs & orange dresses


{dress: ross | belt: dots | earrings: simply chic | sunglasses: michael kors | wedges: nine west, old}

More weekend biz: Wore this dress here, but decided it made the perfect Easter Sunday dress so very excited to wear it again! We went to church downtown for a special Easter service at the Cannon Center, and then to a family brunch at The Majestic Grille.  Rode the trolley, met some tourists and laughed a lot.  Baby sister gave me the rock ring for Easter and I am in love with it.
And of course, no brunch is complete with out eight some mimosas.

déjà voo doo

Don't let my outstanding French knowledge distract you from the fact that I wore brights and (different) leopard flats yesterday.  I went to Marshall's last night while waiting on a friend for dinner, and this little orange cardi just jumped in my arms and begged to come home with me.
Waaaay too forward.
All in all, we have had an amazing 18 hours together.  I love you, RLL cardigan.
(especially your buttons, wink.)
We have a bright future ahead of us.
If you like accessorizing like a little girl or Katy Perry...
(obviously I am both one or the other)
Then you'll love my clutch I found at the thrift store yesterday.
That baby set me back a whole $3 and she was not as needy as the cardigan,
 but she was cheaper, indeed.
I bought some great stuff, and am having wild ideas of doing a VLOG haul!
Thoughts? Yay, nay, may-bay?
They take me very seriously at work, y'all.
Planning summer camps can be tough, the only prescription is more fruit.


HEY YOU!
yeah... you...
Have the best day ever, okay?

FBFF: Spring Trends

Favorite Spring Trends
This week for FBFF, hosted by ModlyChic,

I was asked: What are the top five spring trends that you are looking 
forward to seeing/sporting this season?

Boy, it was a tough job narrowing it down to five.
On with the show...

ONE: CHIFFON PLEATS:
 I mentioned my love for chiffon pleats here and here. I still feel the same way!
I love the look and I hope it sticks around
TWO: CUTOUT PLATFORM WEDGES:
They are in almost every store.  Some of my favorites this season are hailing from Nine West.
I need to get my hands on some, pronto (pup).
THREE: WHITE SKINNY JEANS:
I already found the peeeeerrrrfect pair in my price range- HERE
just have not quite allocated that money yet... 
(hint hint birthday/graduation gifts wink wink nudge...)
FOUR: ORANGE ORANGE ORANGE:
It's all about orange this spring, and don't just take my word for it.
Wow, that really sounded like a salesperson... HELLO!
Even though I despise the orange that is worn around my part of town, I like the corals and burnt orange.
Throw in some ruffles, like above, and I might not ever take it off.
FIVE: GYPSY JEWELRY:
I already have my gypsy necklace, but the piles and piles of bangles on the scene are making me smile.
I love the eclecticism and beauty of the groups together.
Get it, Esmerelda. 

WHAT ARE YOUR FAVORITE SPRING TRENDS?
TELL ME ABOUT IT!
AND RUN OVER TO MODLY-CHIC AND SEE WHAT EVERYONE ELSE IS LOVIN' ON.
