Mint + Leopard

I just couldn't help it. I love all of my colored jeans so I had to put on my mint ones. And then I realized that my leopard print scarf went perfectly with the jeans...thus I practically replicated my look from Monday with difference colors and pieces. Oh well. When you find something that you love to wear; why not wear it as much as you can?

Business Casual

I know, I know; I'm not actually in any form of Business yet. But I like to dress like I am. I literally tried on about, oh say 20 different outfits this morning before I decided I looked decent enough to walk out the door. Needless to say; I'm picking out my outfit for tomorrow, TONIGHT. Any who...


I love this combination because the skirt is very fitted while the top is loose. And the necklace is just to die for. Big, statement, bold color: Everything a girl could ask for! I felt very business like in it; hence the title. I'm looking forward to dressing more business-y for my major later in school.

Leopard + Pale Pink

First day back to classes! I have to say that today was a pretty great day. Today I had French and Sociology; both of which I think are going to be good classes. French will most likely be the best! With the weather lately, I had to switch up my look...no sweaters with jeans and boots today! The high was projected to be 81! So I decided to show off my new blouse that I got since I'm obsessed with prints. Pairing it with my new pale pink jeans seems perfect for this spring like weather! And of course I had to add some gold accents to go along with my new watch!

I wanted to show off my new lip treatment that my uncle recommended because he got it for my mom. I bought it in a reddish berry color so it gives me a little color for when I don't feel like wearing gloss or lipstick. The lip treatment is meant to cure chapped and dry lips; which I really need!! I got it from Sephora for $23!

School Spirit!

So sorry about the MIA. I've been so busy moving in to my dorm and doing other stuff, I completely forgot about posting outfits! I still took some pictures thank goodness! Here are two outfits I put together to go to two different basketball games. Our school colors are garnet and black and luckily I have added a lot of garnet and black to my closet over the past few months; so I can come up with cute, different outfits.

In this one I decided to try out my new tan/taupe/whatever color you want to call them, pants. The color is hard to see in this picture but I love that they're another neutral that I can wear.

For today's look I had to make sure I wore something that I wouldn't burn up in...since our weather here in Columbia has decided to go all crazy with 80 degree weather in January!!

Dot Obsession!

One of the last times I went to Forever21; the cashier probably thought that I was a little crazy. There were so many pieces that had polka dots on them. The jeans from the last post were in that haul as well. And now I present you with this lovely sweater! I had been on the lookout for a soft polka dot sweater that I could layer with anything and everything. And I found it! Forever21 is really the best store for anything you could possibly need!

I love collar necklaces right now because they can be so dainty but they add something great to an outfit!

 

Unexpected Combination

When I came across these jeans at Forever21, I knew that I had to have them. Burgundy dots on black jeans? Perfection. The unexpected part comes in when I decided to wear the jeans with my leopard print loafers. At first I thought it would be a little too much; but after walking around the house in them I realized it was a good mixture of patterns.

Plus, I love the way my tattoo looks with these shoes! For anyone wondering it says "Je pense donc je suis" which is French for "I think therefore I am."



Loving Stripes

I've had this striped dress for about a month or so and although I really like it; I hadn't been able to come up with a cute, fun way to wear it yet. Yesterday was the day! I bought the teal top a little while ago and I realized that it would go perfectly over the dress. Plus I've seen pins on Pinterest of wearing shirts of dresses to mix up the look!

 

Dress: Walmart ($3) And I kid you not! The tag said $10 and then when I went to pay it wrung up for $3! Probably the best steal I've ever gotten.

Shirt: Wish (downtown Columbia) ($8) This was on sale as well.

Tights: Christmas gift

Boots: Burlington Coat Factory ($30)
