Disappearing Act
Shirt: Target | Pants: Target | Bag: thrifted | Sandals: DSW
These are my six dollar pants that I found at Target. I believe I always bring this up every time I wear them, I just love ‘em so! They are about two sizes to big but with cost per wear I have now paid $1.50. WHOOP!
Ok seriously I’m not a fan of wishing time away but I can’t wait for this month to be...
fossilized fashion
Shirt: Marshalls | Cardigan: thrifted | Jeans: Gap
Shoes: Steve Madden, DSW | Necklace: Topshop
I found this necklace at Topshop in LA and ran around the store in utter happiness. How often do you find a dinosaur skeleton necklace, right?! I wasn’t sure what to pair it with and then I figured I should just wear it with different shades of green. Dinosaurs + green =...
blinders and gold spots
Dress: thrifted | Necklace: The Limited
Belt: H&M | Shoes: Audrey Brooke, DSW
I was told that I should take pictures of this outfit by my co-worker Miranda. Whatever Miranda tells me to do, I guess I have to do. Everything except see the new Great Gatsby…BOOM.
I bought this dress last summer and I think this is the first time I have worn it. Too much clothing. I think...
flower power
Jacket: thrifted | Shirt: F21 | Pants: H&M | Shoes: Urban Outfitters
These pictures were taken a few weeks ago and they have been sitting on my desktop ever since.
I found these pants last month for $10! $10! They could borderline Florida grandma but I guess that is my style anyway so I’m fine with it. Sweet and simple.
Minty Fresh
Shirt: thrifted | Jeans: Gap | Necklace: Ebay | Shoes: Steve Madden
You might be asking the question “where have you been, my lovely” especially if you are a Darjeeling Limited fan. Well, the answer to that is I’ve been busy, seriously where did April go? If that answer isn’t good enough then how about I was on vacation in California last week? Yes, ok?...

a few weeks ago
Sweater: Target | Shirt: thrifted | Jeans: Gap
Shoes: DSW | Coat: Tulle | Shades: Ray-Bans
Between improv, work, Reds opening day and sleeping I haven’t been on here lately. Sometimes life just keeps moving and you don’t get the time to take pictures of yourself.
Kenny took these a few weeks ago when it was chilly today it’s breezy and in the 80s! Spring time...

Whenever I say “I have no clothes to wear” it is just me being dramatic. But I have realized that I don’t have any good transition coats. A spring coat? A ‘it’s not snowing but still not warm’ coat. Something a little heavier than a trench coat. If...
patience is a virtue
Dress: TJ Maxx | Jacket: thrifted | Cardigan: H&M | Tights: DSW
Belt: thrifted | Flats: DSW | Bag: gift (find it here)
Oh boy am I tired. I am right on the edge of falling asleep on my computer. I hope I can make it through this post…
Not to complain about the weather but 37 degrees at the end of March is not what I had in mind. Spring you are more than welcome to come...

Jacket: Gap | Shirt: Forever 21 | Jeans: DL1961 c/o Invista Lycra campagin (2012)
Flats: DSW | Bag: Elliott Lucca, DSW | Nails: Cajun Shrimp, OPI
Well, my mom was in Columbus on Wednesday so I took the day off and she and I went shopping. She is one of my favorite people to go shopping with because I enjoy her company. She might have purchased a few items for me so that just elevates...
Let Me Tell You...
Shirt: Gap | Sweater: Urban | Jeans: Gap | Flats: DSW
Bag: thrifted | Belt: Gap | Scarf: Target | Lips: Nars, Montego Bay
First off, I’ve found an everyday lipstick. I’ve been looking for a nice neutral but usually they were too nude and just blended in with the rest of my face. I’m pale. I really love this one and need to thank my mom for buying it for me. Thanks...
feeling better
sweater: Old Navy | Shirt: J.Crew | Jeans: Old Navy
Boots: Steve Madden | Socks: Target | Bag: Charles David (old)
In case anyone was concerned after my last ranty post about emotions and the Pope, I’m feeling much better. Mother nature loves me and the world has declared a new Pope. It feels like everything is as it should be.
I went shopping with my mom yesterday and bought...
suede shoes on a rainy day
Tank: Target | Jacket: thrifted | Dress (worn as skirt): Plenty by Tracy Reese, second-hand
Flats: Urban Outfitters | Watch: Target
In case you couldn’t tell I was not in a good mood when these photos were taken. Maybe because it was Monday or maybe because it was raining and we had to take these photos inside. Suede shoes + rain = a no, no. OR MAYBE it’s because I really...
a sunday stroll
Shirt: Urban Outfitters | Jeans: Gap | Scarf: Gap
Flats: DSW | Shades: Five Below | Bag: sample sale at work
Kenny and I decided to take a little walk around Grandview yesterday since it was so nice out. He lives very close to the best consignment stores in Columbus and as we walked by One More Time asked if I wanted to go in (did he know who he was talking to?). We did and I bought...
peachy keen
Shirt: Target | Pants: DL1961, second-hang | Belt: H&M |
Shoes: DSW | Nails: Sephora + Pantone Universe (!)
First of all, I would like to point out that these pants almost match the color of my skin. If they were a tad more…porcelain, it would just blend right in and you wouldn’t be able to tell a difference. Fortunately for me these do not match my skin and they look...
when the snow falls
Shirt: thrifted | Cardigan: Gap | Jeans: Gap | Belt: Eddie Bauer
Flats: Urban Outfitters | Bracelet: MARC by Marc, gift
This is what happens overnight when you live in Ohio. You go from green to white and everyone complains about it in a status update on Facebook. I really don’t mind the snow, I’ve lived with Ohio winters my whole life. The trees look pretty and at any...
the day after
Sweater: Forever 21 | Cords: Old Navy | Flats: Boutique 9
Belt: thrifted | Necklace: Anthropologie, Ebay | Nails: OPI Lucky Lucky Lavender
Well, here it is, I’m officially 26. Yippee! I don’t know what else to say, another year another age. Sometimes it feels like it all blends together. I don’t mean this in a bad way but maybe Aaliyah had a point - age...
Best Week Ever
Shirt: J.Crew, thrifted | Pants: J.Crew Factory | Flats: Urban Outfitters
Necklaces: gift, Kohl’s | Bracelet: Forever 21
Let’s state the obvious, these jeans are super short and I haven’t even washed them yet! I only bought them because they were cheap and blue. I guess that will teach me. Darn you J.Crew and all your bright colors, you just suck me right in!
Ok so...
17 Days
Shirt: Rag-O-Rama | Cardigan: Old Navy | Jeans: thrifted
Scarf: F21 | Belt: Old Navy (ancient) | Shoes: Dolce Vita, DSW
Ok it’s officially 17 days until Spring. I really hate wishing away seasons but here is how I feel about winter - if it’s going to be cold I’d rather it really snow so I have something pretty to look at. Otherwise it’s just...
Retro Day
Shirt: Old Navy | Skirt: thrifted | Flats: Steve Madden | Scarf: thrifted
Monday was retro day at work. Do we always have theme days you ask? No, but the company that I work for was debuting their spring campaign commercials and they have a retro vibe, it’s really a lovely ad.
I wanted to wear a vintage dress and heels but since I now am on my feet 95% of my day I knew this...
Birthday Wishlist
Next Tuesday I will turn 26 which officially makes me 20 years too old to be making a wishlist for my birthday. I’m at that point in my life where if I want something I just figure out a way to buy it. Except for Christmas, my mom is all about wishlists - and what she says goes. Anyhow, I thought that since this is all for fun I’d make one anyway. Maybe Santa can visit me early this...

a classy saturday evening
Coat: Old Navy | Shirt: thrifted | Jeans: DL1961 c/o Invista Lycra Campaign
Scarf: thrifted | Bag: thrifted | Shoes: Urban Outfitters
Saturday was a mad day. Kenny and I had plans for the evening so I asked if he would like to walk around Grandview prior and snap some pics for me. He agreed and brought out the fancy camera, this means business. He was a photography major in...

Shirt: thrifted | Cardigan: Urban | Jeans: H&M, thrifted | Scarf: DSW
Belt: Gap | Shoes: Converse, DSW | Necklace: thrifted
When in doubt dress in red, white and blue and match your outfit to your nail polish. This whole outfit was the result of doing laundry last weekend. I do not like doing grown up things like laundry and grocery shopping but I have to say once you bite the...
Blast from the Past

2012:
sweater: loft skirt: anthropologie tights: hue shoes: ralph lauren, dsw
Unfortunately no pictures were taken today. BUSY, busy at the studio, lots of stuff to get done. So I thought it would be fun to see what I wore in the past. The cool thing is that I can go back 2 years now! That’s crazy.
First photo is...
I need sleep
Cardigan: Eddie Bauer | Shirt: J.Crew outlet | Jeans: Gap
Booties: Dolce Vita, TJ Maxx | Scarf: sample sale | Earrings: Francesca’s
I’ve eaten a lot of heavy food today. I feel like I am about to fall asleep in .2 seconds. I wish I had something more fun to report but it’s cold and I want to go to bed. Nothing but fun over here tonight.
PS these jeans are baggy...
Opinionated Memories
Dress: MARC by Marc | Cardigan: Old Navy | Belt: thrifted | Boots: DSW
This is one of those dresses that I plan on never Ever getting rid of, EVER. This was a very generous gift from my parents right after I graduated from college. My mom and I were in Chicago and we, of course, had to go check out the MJ store. I wasn’t planning on leaving with anything, especially clothing. Well,...
Pucci Please!
Shirt: H&M | Jeans: Gap | Flats: Sofft | Scarf: Pucci, thrifted
Necklace: thrifted | Medallion: thrifted
Sometimes you get the urge to go thrifting and when the mood hits you just gotta run with that feeling. Lucky for me, it definitely paid off! I ended up finding this Pucci scarf for $7! $7. This is crazy, these scarves go for high $$$ (I’m talking $250^). I’ve...
Thrill of the deal
Found this little Pucci scarf for almost nothing ($7!) last weekend. Pictures later today on how I styled it!
Initial Jewelry
Every time I watch The Carrie Diaries I think about how cute her “c” necklace is, I’m all about initial jewelry. Well, the one AnnaSophia wears on the show is $678. Um no thank you. However, if anyone knows where I can find one in the $50 mark let me know!

Well, Happy (belated) Valentine’s Day. I don’t feel bad about belating this because Valentine’s Day isn’t a real holiday. I’m sorry folks, it just isn’t. When I was single I would say this bitterly and now that I am with someone I still kind of...
Clothing nerd, Grammar turd
Sweater: Old Navy | Shirt: Forever 21 | Pants: Old Navy
Pin: Grandmothers | Flats: Report
With all free time I had this weekend I decided to do laundry and plan out outfits for the week ahead. That is what I like to call a nerd weekend. But being a nerd about clothing really pays off. All my clothes are clean and I’m not waddling around taking forever to figure out what to wear...
High waters and boyfriends
Shirt: Old Navy | Pants: J.Crew Outlet | Scarf: thrifted | Earrings: F21
Shoes: Sam Edelman, DSW | Nails: Essie “Mint Candy Apple”
I bought these pants knowing they were supposed to come to my ankles but looking at these photos now, they just look like high waters. At least they are a pretty color.
Well, I am boyfriend-less this weekend which means it’s all on me -...
Spots and Dots
Shirt: Old Navy | Pants: Old Navy | Jacket: Thrifted | Shoes: Sam Edelman | Pins: vintage, grandmothers | Scarf: thrifted
I have worn these shoes so much that the fur is starting to fall off. When I bought them back in September they were marked way down (I’m talking a $15 purchase) and had a sticker on the bottom that said “MADE WITH REAL FUR”. What does that...
Gap Inc
Shirt: Gap | Cardigan: Old Navy | Jeans: Gap | Loafters: Dolce Vita
Belt: H&M | Watch: Target | Earrings: Forever 21
It’s safe to say I love Gap Inc. brands, especially Gap. There have been many occasions where I have found myself wearing head to toe (or leg) Gap products - case in point. I think you get the picture (zing!). Well gang, this one is no different.
I stand by...

Hot Off the Press
Shirt, sweater vest and blazer: thrifted | Jeans: Gap | Boots: Dirty Laundry
I originally paired this with slouchy green khakis BUT I looked kind of like a little boy from the turn of the century. A stylish one at that. Anyway I saw these jeans (so need to be washed) laying around, grab them and out the door I went. Funny thing, I still look like I should be delivering newspapers...

I ate Piada almost three hours ago and I am still full and bloated. Good lord that was a lot of delicious (and heavy) food. I can just feel my stomach expanding - yum.
Ok, so I took these last week. I keep taking pictures and never uploading them because this month has been much...
holy moly
Holy moly! I’ve been doing this picture thing now for three years, my longest relationship to date. You can check it out from the beginning here, if you dare…
I took pictures today however left my card reader elsewhere. I guess those will have to wait until tomorrow!
Chop it off
Sweater: Old Navy ($6!) | Shirt: Old Navy | Jeans: Gap | Necklace: Forever 21
Boots: DV by Dolce Vita, TJ Maxx | Socks: J Crew outlet
I finally decided to get a haircut. My friend at work Miranda and I went together (cute? lame? both?) Wednesday night (to literally get the same chop) and voila a new haircut is born. Much better.
Thanks to Kendi for this idea to wear cropped pants...
Last Saturday
Shirt: Forever 21 | Cardigan: H&M | Jeans: Gap | Shoes: Report
Last Saturday my Dad turned 60 years old. We thought it would be fun to all drive to Dayton for a surprise birthday weekend. My brother and his girlfriend drove from TN and Kenny and I came from Columbus. He was surprised to say the least!
Saturday we went to the Webster Street Market in downtown Dayton which was...
Relaxed
Cardigan: Eddie Bauer | Shirt: Gap | Jeans: Gap | Belt: Old Navy
Flats: Madden Girl | Necklace (worn as headband): Eddie Bauer
I don’t think these jeans are the most flattering but they are the most comfortable. That sounds like something my mom would say. If I start wearing SAS shoes, please, just kill me now.
Well, The Carrie Diaries, is on tonight. I already have it set up to...
Can You See My Legs?
Sweater: Gap | Pants: Target | Necklace: Forever 21 | Flats: Urban | Belt: Gap
I love these pants. I found them on a sale rack at Target for $6 - best 6 bucks I ever spent.
These flats were a Christmas gift from my parents (thanks Mom & Dad!). When I saw them online they looked more apple red but in real life they are cranberry. Hey Urban, nice job on your color correction - am I...

Shirt: J Crew | Cardigan: Target | Jeans: Old Navy | Necklace: F21 | Shoes: Report
Yellow, red and turquoise. The new primary colors. Zing.

So Blue
Shirt: Old Navy | Pants: Old Navy | Scarf: Missoni | Flats: Steve Madden | Watch: Target
It snowed. It finally snowed. This happened more than a week ago but I believe it is worth talking about. Last year we had nothing. It was kind of cold and snowed maybe one day. This year it’s freezing and snow and ice cover the grounds. I live in Ohio - I expect snow during this time of the...

A few weeks ago Kenny and I (finally!) went to the Annie Leibovitz exhibit at The Wexner Center. It was pretty fantastic. It involved everything I enjoy - lots of comedians, pop culture, photos, crowds of people…I...
Remember Thanksgiving?
Sweater, shirt, jeans: Gap | Booties: Crown Vintage, DSW
Sweater, jeans: Old Navy | Shirt: Gap | Shoes: Kenneth Cole, DSW
These pictures are old…old in the terms of the meaning of this blog which is to take daily pictures of my outfits. Oops. I can blame the holidays, work blah blah. I’ll get back around to my regular routine next year, which is very soon. Can anyone...
Lately
Hey gang,
Sorry I haven’t been on here for a while. I took pictures on Thanksgiving day but as we can all see I still haven’t put them up. I’ll get there, hopefully. I took a little break accidentally, with the time change and a few late nights here and there at work it’s hard to find time to consistently take pictures. My camera is on the outs…again…I...

I want this shirt. Want it, want it. Need it, no? I guess I could make it myself…hmm…this is something to think about. Instead I found and bought a Beverly Hills 90210 shirt for $3.99. Thanks Old Navy.
I’ve had this shirt for a month or so and this is my first time...

I think I wore this outfit a week too late. Don’t you think this would have been perfectly appropriate on election day? Oh well, I’ll have to wait another four years to get this right in my book. Politics.
So Gap is having this amazing...
