This T by Alexander Wang skirt is another new favorite in my wardrobe. I am very glad I finally bit the bullet and bought it. I can't wait to wear it with tights and/or a leather jacket come Fall! The day I wore this it was a tiny bit chilly (except it was still in the high 70s) so I decided to experiment with layering. I haven't worn heels since a wedding 2 weeks ago, it felt weird to be in them. But the funny thing is, I am more comfortable in most heels than I am in flats, I'm weird like that.

Song of the Day: Say You Don't Want It by One Night Only
This past Saturday I had the pleasure of going on an outing with 5 other bloggers! I met up with Lydia, Courtney, Christine, Amber and Bethany in West Hartford for some food, shopping and photos! It was our last meetup with Courtney because she is moving back to Canada next week, so sad!
We started off the day at La Petite France, a French bakery on Farmington Avenue, where we all had crepes! I got an almond and chocolate crepe because I'm a picky eater and all the regular ones disgusted me ;) After that we walked around a bit and went to Charming Charlie and Second Time Around. I was a good girl and didn't buy anything...
After that it was time for photos and a quick stop at Pinkberry for Lydia and myself while Courtney and Christine got Starbucks. On our way home (the four of us carpooled) we stopped at Nordstrom Rack, TJ Maxx and finally Eli's on Whitney for a late dinner. It was quite a long day but so much fun! (Check back later this week to see the AMAZING deal I got at Nordstrom)
Time for photos! All of these are by Lydia. For more photos check out the other girls blogs! I'll update this post with links to their posts when they are available: Courtney, Lydia, Amber, Christine, Bethany.
Amber and I both wore some Jason Wu for Target, YAY!

I threw this outfit on yesterday morning for a run to the grocery store to get much needed food items so I won't starve. I'm starting to cook more (and am trying to be healthy) Yesterday I made Orange-Maple Glazed Chicken and Herbed Corn for my roommate and I! It was quite tasty if I do say so myself.
These pants aren't really summer pants, but this weather isn't really summer-like so I broke the rules. I did brighten them up with my other pieces though. And for a girl who doesn't like pink I seem to have a lot of it, don't I? I also feel the need to wear my cobra necklace whenever I wear these pants.
Textured Pants: Jolt (Marshalls) $20, Tank Sweater: Willi Smith (TJ Maxx) $15, Sweater: old, Wedges: Madden Girl (Marshalls) $20, Purse: Marc by Marc Jacobs gift card, Sunglasses: Marc by Marc Jacobs (Shopbop) gift card, Bracelets c/o 31 Bits, Rings: Mom's, Cobra Necklace: Vanessa Mooney giveaway

This past weekend I spent lots of time with my roommate and our best friend. On Saturday we went shopping, out to eat, and they went out while I stayed home and relaxed. Then Sunday we went out for breakfast, to the beach, watched Harry Potter, went out to eat again, then some more Harry Potter (One friend hasn't seen all of them so we're watching them all in a row so she can catch up).
All of these activities required outfits, so I decided to do a little challenge with myself and styled this floral crop top I bought last year for $5 at Kohl's in different ways! Since I'm not working right now I need to get a lot better at remixing all of my pieces because I won't be able to buy too many clothes while I figure my life out.
Look 1: This look is perfect for when it is warm out but a little chilly. Just take some wide leg jeans, sandals and a light sweater and you're good to go!
Top: Mudd $5, Sweater: Kohl's gift, Jeans: Free People (Marshalls) $40, Sandals: Crown Vintage (DSW) $45, Bag: Marc by Marc Jacobs gift card, Sunglasses: Michael Kors (Marshalls) $20, Bracelets c/o 31 Bits, Rings: Mom's, Watch: Michael Kors
Look 2: This look is for when it is so hot out that you would rather walk around naked. Pair the top with sandals and a thin skirt so it won't be plastered to your body when copious amounts of water come out of your legs, stomach and arms. (luckily we aren't at this stage of summer yet)
Top: Mudd $5, Skirt: made from old dress, Sandals: Madden Girl (TJ Maxx) $20, Bag: Marc by Marc Jacobs gift card, Sunglasses: Marc by Marc Jacobs (Shopbop) gift card
Look 3: Is a variation of look 1 but tailored for when it is a BIT hotter out. Wear some boyfriend jeans (perhaps with some rips so that your legs are ventilated,) and a light sweater with some flat sandals.
Top: Mudd $5, Sweater: Urban Outfitters $0, Jeans: American Eagle $15, Sandals: Target (similar) $15, Bag: Marc by Marc Jacobs gift card, Sunglasses: Michael Kors (Marshalls) $20, Necklace: etsy $8, Bracelets: old, Rings: Mom's, Watch: Michael Kors

This weekend was AWESOME! The weather was perfect and I got to spend time with my family and best friends...what is better than that?! I was a very bad blogger and didn't take any outfit pictures... *gasp* So last night before my best friends and I watched Crazy, Stupid, Love (LOVE that movie so much) I had one of them take a picture of my boring outfit (I forgot to put my jewelry back on...and I look weirdly proportioned because of the angle, but oh wells)
Tank: American Eagle $5, Shorts: Zara, Wedges: Madden Girl (Target) $20, Necklaces: from friend & Vanessa Mooney, Bracelets c/o 31 Bits, Rings: Mom's, Watch: Michael Kors, Bag: Marc by Marc Jacobs

It's a three day weekend!! WOOHOO! Let's hope the weather gets better and stays sunny! This was a jeans week for me, but none of them are regular jeans! I love how much variety there is these days in jeans...printed, floral, textured, brights skinny, flare, etc. Nothing really exciting happened this week, except for what you'll read below. There may or may not be a Friday outfit because I wasn't feeling well last night (aka right now, because I'm writing this on Thursday night) and may not feel up to going to work...at least we are a little slow right now so they'll be okay without me. But let's hope I feel better!
Here's an awkward story for your enjoyment: Wednesday when I got to work a guy made it to the door before me so he held it open. Obviously I was polite and said thank you while smiling. Then later in the day when I was on my way to the potty (yes...I say potty) I saw him again so I smiled and waved (again, to be polite. Then as I was getting into my car on Thursday I saw a business card stuck to the window, I picked it up and threw it in my car thinking nothing of it. I stopped at my parent's for a couple hours and when I got back in my car to head home and I noticed there was writing on the back of the card. It said:

"Hi, I'm not sure if you have a man, but if you do he's a lucky man! I like your style! If not, I would love the chance to buy you coffee, lunch of dinner. Cell # xxx-xxx-xxxx"Umm...awkward!!! I pretty much died laughing the whole way home. Yes, I know I'm mean for laughing at his expense but I can't help it. Now, this story would be completely different if he was tall and handsome, sadly he was short and awkward...depressing! It's not like I get asked out every day either, this is the first time, albeit weird, that I've been officially asked out by a boy. Why is it always the weird ones?!! Any cute, normal guys out there interested in a date? ;)
