Spring Wish List

I mentioned a few days ago how truly ready I was for Spring to get its cute lil butt here! I know it is just around the corner, so I am getting my sights set on some superb Spring goodies.

Here's a list of my warmer weather wants:

one. Spring Gingham

two.  Gold Foil Eyelids

three.  Cutout Slingback Heels

four. Sky Blue Skinnies

five. Radiant Orchid Lippy

six.  Daisy Print Shift Dress

seven.  Buckle Pointy Toe Booties

eight.  Spring Statement Necklace

What are your big wants/needs/must-haves for Spring?  Do tell!

Let's Try This Again...

top: gibson // skinnies: h&m+ (similar) // wedges: payless (similar) // 

necklace: crack in the walk // gold clutch: marc jacobs for target

Boy, that Monday sure was a bummer, huh?  They just don't get easier, little chickens.

On days when I need some extra pepping up (like today, I was still kinda in the funk) I always try to go above and beyond in my appearance.  It is a hope that if my clothes and makeup (the hair is usually a lost cause) are on pointe then hopefully my attitude and energy level will follow.  My heart wanted sweat pants, but my head insisted on my new favorite top and red wedges.  If you asked me a year ago if I would be rocking dressy sweatshirts (here and here) with a passion... I would have laughed at you.  This is my third one, and there's no coming back from this. As far as the funk is concerned, I'm a firm believer in the healing power of a good lipstick and a statement necklace.

What do you reach for when you need to cure the blues?

Assuming it is too early in the day for a cocktail... :)

Linking up with Laura and Erin today!

Who's That Girl?!

I will save you the ins and outs of where I've been hiding (somewhere between a margarita bar and a lost Macbook charger) and just carry on, my wayward chickens.  Deal? Deal. Sweet summertime is here and I feel the freedom! I have slow, peaceful mornings, a belated work time, and freedom of dress code with my new job (a post to come on that soon.)  Also, summer means CELEBRATION! Last Saturday, a few of my favorites went out to celebrate my main blonde's birthday.

I hope today finds all of you well, and I hope it won't be so long before I am back again.

Lord knows, I have a lot to say and share with my little chickens.
Cheers!

Skater Dress & Statement Necklaces

 {skater dress: ASOS via Gwynnie Bee | belt: Lane Bryant | necklace: Accessory Concierge | clutch: thrifted | flats: Tory Burch}

Back by popular demand... the top knot!  I hardly ever ever wear my hair up for some reason... but after this post a lot of you encouraged me to put that mop up again, and I think it is growing on me.

Also, the necklace is back.  Almost the same outfit.
Take it easy on me, forgive me.  I've been off cokes and candy for almost 3 weeks and I don't know which way is up.  One thing is for certain... twirling in this dress = EPIC.

Simple and Casual (and Twizzlers)

{jeans: tj maxx | white tee: old navy | army vest: old navy | flats: tory burch | necklace: accessory concierge | sunglasses: michael kors}

I don't know what is more simple than a white tee and jeans!  Meanwhile, I refuse to go a week without wearing my green vest... so throw that in and you have my outfit.  Badabing! Seriously folks, I will cry when this baby (eventually) gets lost or horribly damaged from my love.  There are two things I just don't think I can live without: my green army vest and sweet and sour Twizzlers. Currently, I am off Twizzlers (I KNOW???!!!!!!) so be prepared to see the vest reappear again soon.
Don't forget there are two giveaways open to my little chickens! BE sure to enter!! $200 Piperlime Gift Card Giveaway AND $100 Etsy/$100 Amazon/$100 PayPal/$30 Target GIVEAWAY!
