Fairy Teal
Shirt: Target / Skirt: Forever 21 / Belt: Macys / Flats: Steve Madden
Has anyone seen the Footlocker Wright Brothers commercial? Makes me proud to be from Dayton. Hey, the Wright Brothers is really all we got. Well that and the great flood of 1913. Anyone?
On a more crazy note isn’t it insane that today is the last day of August? I can’t believe this year is...

Cheap dress? Yes, please.
Dress: Target / Belt: my aunt / Earrings: Forever 21 / Sandals: Target
What is any girl to do when she comes face to face with a Marc Jacobs inspired frock for under $25? I’ll tell you what she does, she finds her size and heads straight for the register. I’m glad I always follow these rules.
Overall I had a successful weekend. I went shopping when I...
Hold Up, Really?
(pretty celebration cakes image via here)
I can’t believe I missed my 1 year anniversary. I’m not good at remembering dates unless they are major holidays…or my birthday. I like having a cake all for me. Anyway it was a year ago this month that I started this blog all by myself. Not much has really changed in my life since then, well, I got my first...
The Return of the Muztard Shorts
Shirt: Target / Short:s Gap / Belt: Gap / Hat: H&M / Scarf: thrifted / Flats: DSW
I love these shorts. They are easy to throw on, don’t cut off the circulation in my thighs and are a decent length. I honestly do not know how some girls bounce around in those Hollister shorts all day long. No offense to Hollister. Actually, lots of offense to Hollister and the rest of the...
Tooth and Nail
On Thursday I went to the dentist and wore my favorite themed teeth tank top, Delias circa ‘06? Everyone got a kick out of it. You’ll be happy to know that my teeth are in great shape, which is surprising to me since I have eat terribly the past few days. Thank goodness for the invention of floss.

I really like that Awkward show on MTV. It is funny and relatable. The woman who created the show actually tweeted at my last week because I said I liked it no matter what judgements may come. She was happy I liked the show, I kind of felt like a jerk. It was funny though.
I have been obsessed lately...
Midnight In Paris
Top: Old Navy / Dress: Forever 21 / Necklace: ReDress / Shoes: Sears
This is my delayed Midnight In Paris themed outfit. I still love that movie a month after seeing it. I also love finding new ways to wear favorite pieces. I forgot about this necklace I got back in June while on vacation. I felt pretty and dainty and flow-y. Is flowy a word? My mac is saying no but I am saying...
Back To No School
Shirt: LOFT / Cardigan: Target / Jeans: Gap /
Flats: Steve Madden / Gum: Big League Chew
All of the schools around here start on Wednesday. I always loved the first and the last day of school, those two days were so carefree and weather was always perfect. I honestly think I just really miss buying school supplies, however I...
Back at the Fair
What is up with me and fairs this summer? I always want to go but never get a chance, however when my mom told me when the Darke County Fair (rated one of the best in the US!) was this weekend I drove home and ventured to Greenville yesterday with my parents.
First we stopped at the Kitchen-Aid store in downtown Greenville and I longed after all the pretty Kitchen-Aid mixers. I really...
Is it Friday Yet?
Dress: Marc by Marc / Belt: thrifted / Sandals: Forever 21
I think Project Runway and Bachelor Pad should come together. Chris Harrison and Tim Gunn as hosts? That is a great idea. However the people on each of these shows is so bitchy and/or whiny that the world would probably explode.
Ok there is a guy that lives in my neighborhood and he is the most annoying person that I...
Second Attempt
Shirt: Old Navy / Skirt: Anthropologie / Sandals: Steve Madden / Belt: thrifted /
B Necklace: Nordstrom / Key Necklace: Marc Jacobs
Monday night I attempted to make fried chicken, the results were disgusting. Tonight after talking to my mother I decided to try again (practice makes perfect) and re-made fried chicken. This time was more successful however it...
Drive Safe
Shirt: thrifted / Jeans: Delias / Flats: Steve Madden / Bag: GAP / Earrings: Francescas
I didn’t have time to take outfit photos today because I had to go watch Drive Angry. If you are wondering if Nicholas Cage takes priority over this blog, then I’ll tell you, yes, yes he does.
Drive Angry was great. It was ridiculous, terrible and Nicholas Cage was the bad but good guy who...
Sara in Wonderland
Dress: Erin Featherston for Target / Shoes, Miu MIu, DSW / Belt: Talbots
I feel very, very Alice in Wonderland today. How couldn’t you in any outfit that consists of mary janes and girly frocks? That’s all on that.
Let’s talk about cooking, ok? So ever since I saw The Help on Saturday I have wanted to really try and be a great cook. That is easier said than done. I...
Movie Talk
A few things in the terms of movies:
1. Rise of the Planet of the Apes was great. Andy Serkis, you did it again!
2. I forgot how great The Girl with the Dragon Tattoo trailer is. Seriously go watch it.
3. I hope The Devils Double opens in wide release.
4. EW gave 30 Minutes or Less a B+. I’m pumped. The thought of Nick Swardson and Danny McBride together is very, very funny. Also, filmed...
Jackie O on a Safari
Dress: Anthropologie / Belt: Gap / Sandals: Payless
That is the best way I can describe this ensemble. I honestly felt like it was the early 1960’s and I was accompanying my good friend Jackie O (then Kennedy) on an African Safari. I know this sounds crazy since I was not even thought of in the 1960’s and honestly, you should probably be wearing some sort of hiking boots...
Mahalo
Dress: thrifted / Sandals: Payless / Flower: Marc Jacobs / Earrings: Claire’s
This is my favorite thrifted dress of all time. I found it at a Salvation Army in ‘07 for 99 cents and I pretty sure I squealed in the aisle as soon as it caught my eye. This dress also inspired me to start my Hawaiian dress collection, I have about three. I used to only want to wear them for that...
A Very Long Day
Dress: Tommy Hilfiger, Macys / Scarf: thrifted / Sandals: Kohls / Bag: Lucky, DSW
Yesterday was a long and tiring day. However I managed to have some good friends that give me rides to places and eat food with me. They are really nice. I hit a pothole on my way to work sometime last week and my car was acting…strange. The reason it was acting strange was because the breaks were out....
8 Feet Tall
T-Shirt, Jeans, Cardigan: Forever 21 / Necklace: H&M / Shoes: Marc by Marc, DSW
I always forget I have these shoes. I don’t know why either, they are pretty badass. I have only worn them a hand full of times because they aren’t the most comfortable. The last time I worn them I’m pretty sure I was wearing this exact outfit. I last wore this outfit in September of...
History Lesson
Dress: Forever 21 / Cardigan: Old Navy / Tank: thrifted / Belt: Talbots / Shoes: DSW
Did anyone watch any of The Bachelorette? That show is a train wreck. I am glad that it provides me with some form of laughter though.
I feel like I should be in The Great Gatsby. I guess this is due to the light fabrics and pastels. But I don’t want to live during the depression nor during the era...
At the Fair
Tank: thrifted / Cutoffs: old Levis / Purse: Aigner, DSW / Flats: Steve Madden, DSW
This afternoon my friend Dave and I ventured out to the Ohio State Fair. Overall it was delicious. I managed to get Dave to go on the chair lift with me, this was much more frightening than I thought it would be. I’m still skeptical on the safety of chair lifts in general, especially at a fair....
