Red & Lace

Long time no talk, again. Oops! I think I bit off a little more than I could chew with adding a few classes to my already hectic work schedule for the second semester in a row, but, I made it out alive.. I think.  After a few life/hair changes I finally have enough time to get back into my regular blogging pattern. Since you've seen me last I've went from long black hair with bangs to a short black bob to a blonde bob to long blonde hair and now I have finally settled on one of my past favorites a dark brown to chestnut ombre. I know a lot of people say the ombre is out but I still personally enjoy it and why listen to everyone else anyway, right?

"She Wore Blue Velvet..."

"...bluer than velvet was the night"

I have invested in my fair share of velvet pieces this season, this being my favorite and definitely my most worn. The pictures do no justice to the beautiful blue color or texture. It is the exact same fit as my favorite shift dresses from Boohoo that I've been raving about in my past few posts, so I'm sure you could take a wild guess as to where it came from. Of course the first time I wore it I chose a smaller platform bootie to make it a little more casual for a day at work, but, I couldn't keep these thigh-highs in the closet for another second!

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.
