LOST
Top: Old Navy / Cardigan: Nordstrom / Jeans: thrifted / Bangle: thrifted / Flats: SE Boutique / Bag: Target
Did anyone watch LOST? Man I miss that show. I feel like LOST has been coming back into my life a lot lately. Examples: Sawyer guest starring on Community, catching an old SVU episode with Sayid and today listening to an old podcast with Paul F. Tompkins, circa 2006, discussing...

The Big Bang
Dress: H&M / Purse: thrifted / Flats: Steve Madden
On Friday my friends Tarrah, Amy and myself had a gals night and ventured downtown to the piano bar, The Big Bang. I had such a fun night. This is going to sound stupid so I am forewarning you- however I felt like I was really feeling the music. Lame. Now I kind of understand where my mom is coming from when she talks about Three Dog...
4 Score and 6 Years Ago...
Dress: JC Penney (from HS) / Cardigan: thrifted / Heels: DSW / Headband: Nordstrom
One of my best friend’s Emily, her little brother is graduating high school this weekend. This is one of those moments where I can’t believe he is old enough to be graduating. I can remember that kid when he was in elementary and it almost seems like he still should be. I say this because he...
Roman Holz
Shirt: thrifted / Skirt: Anthropologie / Shoes: Payless
I felt very Roman Holz in this outfit. Roman Holz is what I call Roman Holiday but I bet you all figured that out on your own. Have I ever told you all how smart you are? Well, you are and don’t let no one tell you otherwise. Yeah.
Anyway, I must face the facts that I am the D version of Audrey Hepburn. Not charismatic...
I'm a Sleepy Model
Shirt: thrifted / Jeans: thrifted / Belt: Gap / Sandals: Steve Madden
I feel so sleep deprived that I don’t eve know what to write about. Wow, I just saw that I typed “eve” instead of “even”. I’m exhaust. Kidding…kind of. I haven’t had time to rest because this week has been packed. Sunday went to Pittsburgh to see Weird Al, yesterday a...
The Bachelorette
Dress: thrifted / Belt: Steve Madden / Heels: thrifted / Clutch: DSW
Saturday marked my first attendance to a Bachelorette party and it was quite a good time. My co-worker Brittany is getting married this weekend and she was kind enough to invite us girls from work to tag along. We rode in a limo (ballin’), ate at M and tooled around downtown. What did you say? You would like to see a few...
Last Post?
Shirt: thrifted / Jeans: Gap / Belt: thrifted / Flats: Nine West (from HS!) / Ring: F 21
I got free ice cream today. How nice is that? More people should turn 40 in our office and think it’s the end of the world. Note, it isn’t 40 is not old. I think 85 is pretty old, at 40 you’re just getting started which makes me a child. Hopefully this is not my last post...
Oh man...
Tunic dress: thrifted / Leggings: Target / Belt: thrifted / Flats: Steve Madden
Ok, so I just had this epiphany on the way home. I’m not sure if I am using this in the right context however it shocked me so much that I almost ran a stop sign. Oh wait, that wasn’t me? No, the lady to my left ran the stop sign and then waved at me for letting her go. If I had superpowers I...
Yesterday
T-shirt: Urban / Cardigan: Gap / Jeans: Gap / Belt: Old Navy / Flats: Steve Madden
Yesterday, all my troubles seemed so f…just kidding. My yesterday was much more upbeat than PM’s was. After work we went over to my co-worker Brittany’s house to watch Glee. They drank wine, I Strongbow and we all ate store bought pizzas that were delicious. Overall a nice time.

Merica
Flannel: F21 / Shorts: F21 / Harmonica Necklace: F21 / Moccasins: Minnetonka
My friend Dave has an annual party every year call Merica. Basically everyone dresses like they are from Appalachia, drinks light beer and dances. His band played a few songs and they were really great! There is always a good time to be had at this party and that was certainly the case last night. Plus I like my...
The Long and the Short of It.
Yesterday morning I left my apartment like this…
Five inches later I came home with this…
My hair has not been this short in a long time. I don’t know what else to say except I plan on using Bumble and Bumble Surf Spray everyday and I also feel really vain doing a post just about a haircut. Oh wait, I post what I wear every day and talk about it. That’s pretty vain,...
Old Habits
I use to be obsessed with going thrifting everyday and now I go maybe once a month. However today I got the urge after work and it really paid off. I found a Christian Dior top, Betsey Johnson cami and an Express skirt that I have wanted for a couple years-plus loads more of clothing. After I left I was $29.60 poorer but now I feel like the closet possibilities are endless. I love that feeling.

Almost Friday
Below is what I actually wore to work until I left at 5pm walked outside and felt the 89 degree heat. I believe this was my exact reaction:
But after I ditched the cardigan I felt much better. This is my everyday face, goofy but true:
Cardigan: J.Crew / Shirt: Forever 21 / Jeans: Forever 21 / Flats: SE Boutique
I can’t believe it is Thursday. Yesterday felt like Thursday,...
Bring on the Mug
Dress: Forever 21 / Cardigan: Gap / Belt: Forever 21 / Flats: Steve Madden
The heat was on today, don’t cue the Glenn Frey song. Yes, I had to Google who sang this song because I assumed Huey Lewis did. I was wrong. Kids, this is why you shouldn’t assume things. Are kids reading this? I don’t think they are, and I’m sorry if I offended anyone by calling them a...
Dress: thrifted / Cardigan: thrifted / Scarf: F21 / Shoes: DSW / Purse: thrifted
Today I ate cake and sushi, on separate occasions of course. My co-worker Brittany is getting married at the end of the month and we threw a surprise bridal shower for her. She was completely surprised and I’m down for any event where cake is served. Mission accomplished.
You guys I bought The Lonely...
Full Week Ahead
Shirt: thrifted / Blazer: thrifted / Skirt: LOFT / Flats: Steve Madden / Purse: thrifted
This week is going to be awesome, allow me to list the reasons why:
1. Yesterday Star Jones was voted off of Celebrity Apprentice. You have no idea how happy this makes me. Barbara Walters and Donald Trump know what is up.
2. I get to come in 2 hours late to work tomorrow. Happy to be able to...
Style Inspiration
I recently have been turned onto Elizabeth Olsen. Being the younger sister of Mary-Kate and Ashley I can only imagine the access to clothes she must have, they did name a clothing line after her and their brother after all. Anyway I like the simplicity of her style, this is something I intend on copying exactly. I think I will start with her haircut…
I desperately need a haircut and am...
Cinco Yo
Shirt: F21 / Jeans: F21 / Sandals: Payless
Almost another entire week with no posts. All I have to say is that for May it is cold and rainy- the rainy part makes it hard to take pictures. However yesterday I managed to snap a few before the sun set and just in time to go celebrate a holiday that has nothing to do with America. Speaking of America, last night half of the people out were...
