pretty bow.


wow. two of my favorite things to mix together. chunky knits with a girl touch. this look happens to be from prada. but we can all recreate it with things i'm sure we all have in our wardrobe. or perhaps, in your boyfriends, fathers, or grandfathers. check your craft box for some ribbon and tie a small bow or create your own pretty detail. to finish it off, throw this over a floral or flowy (or both) dress.

slouchy sweater, floral dress, cream frye cowboy boots = grandpa chic. one of my favorite ways of dressing. i love mixing florals with bulky sweaters. it tons each one down just enough. and how could you go wrong with any kind of fryes.

Thanksgiving. 169.

a dress and tights are the perfect thing to wear on thanksgiving. the both stretch and you cant tell when you get really full. i wore the belt to make sure i didn't over eat! haha not really, but it did actually help. i like the holidays because even if you are just hanging around all day, it is still nice to get dressed up. i kept this lingerie dress casual with the belted sweater and boots. hope everyone had a great holiday!

ruffles. 168.

this is what i get when i mix the pretty things in my closet. i also feel the need to wear black jeans and boots once a week. it is the easiest thing to put on for days when i am not motivated to get dressed.

inside out. 167.

cotton skirt, stirrup tights, party flats. the perfect outfit for a 5 year old. a floral print shirt tops it off. at least they are all the grown-up versions. i also felt like a ballerina today. it makes me feel like i am floating when i walk around at work. not a bad feeling.

day three of wedding hair. 166.

today was my second time this week in a church, but this time not for something as happy as a wedding. this will explain the black and gray on a monday day off. i showed up at my parent's house and we all matched with the same shades of black and gray. it was kind of weird..
