Floral, Suede & Chains

There was absolutely no way I could have passed up this maxi, the second I laid eyes on it I saw at least three different ways to wear it. This was of course the first outfit that came to mind and definitely the most practical for the winter. Since it does button about half way down the bottom, I will definitely be wearing it as a dress as soon as the weather gets warmer and I've already been planning what shoes I want to wear it with from my store's new spring collection. I can definitely see it being my go-to cover up for a day at the beach, too!

Plaid & Lace-Ups

It's been quite a while, hasn't it? I took a much needed break from staring at my computer screen after finals to enjoy the rest of the holiday season. It's nice to be able to wake up on a day off and only have to worry about what's for breakfast rather than what assignment I have to work on first.  I definitely had an amazing Christmas & I hope you all did, too! It was our first in our new house and my Mom/blog photographer decorated every inch better than ever. Even my black & white tree seemed to look ten times better in my new room than it did in my old one, I'm even considering leaving it up all year.
