Polka Dotted Dress

I found this fun dress on clearance at Target for $6 . . . score!

New Dress

I know I have been one of the worst blogger recently. Basically, this semester has been extraordinarily brutal. I promise that your patience over the next couple of months will be rewarded with lots of posts (as soon as this damn semester ends).

In the mean time, I wanted to post an outfit pic today, but it was cream colored.

Did you have to read that last sentence twice? You might be asking yourself, "WTF is she talking about?" But for me it seems that when I wear cream/white colored clothes, stains become naturally attracted to me. Today it happened twice and that's when I gave up.

So instead I'll share one of my latest purchases. . . this vintage dress from ebay for $16 ($6 shipping). I can't wait until it arrives :)

I, of course, love it. But I'm curious. What do you think?

Posting Extravaganza

I know I haven't posted in quite a while at this point, so I decided I'd try to play catch up and posted several days outfits and any little thoughts that cross my mind as I post. Click any image to enlarge.

I like this wrap dress because its colorful and I always feel dressed up wearing it. It's a little big, but wearing a tank top underneath helps to camouflage this minor sizing issue.

Nothing fancy here, a Friday outfit during a cold day. This probably made more of an impact in person since the knee highs' navy coloring had a greater contrast with the tights than this picture suggests.

I decided to replace my favorite off the shoulder sweater with something more figure flattering. While I love this tunic, I don't love wearing it while drinking coffee. Apparently, stains are attracted to its creamy goodness . . . but at least I got this pic in without too much of a mess! And here's a close-up of the necklace.

Necklace: Forever 21

Heels: Ebay I've finally given these new pumps a work out and I have to say that they are pretty comfortable (as comfortable as you can expect point-toed heels to be). I am loooooving these high waisted, wide leg pants. They definitely have this 40s feel to them. And my one nod to spring's feather obsession is this colorful feather necklace. I need to think of some fun ways to wear this layered with other neck pieces.

My recent "shades of brown" day. Bored bloggers can click on the pic to see how sheer this blouse really is since you can see the stripes of my cami underneath. I had originally put the cami on with the hopes that the lace border would peak out of the blouse, but I seem to have a wardrobe malfunction attempting this feat!

Sweater: Rave

Necklace: New York and Co.

Ruffle Skirt: Target

Thigh High socks: H&M

Open Toe heels: Ebay

This is one of my favorites that I wore recently. I am obsessed with these open toe black pumps because I love the mirror-like heels, super sexy! This skirt is also a bit longer, but I really wanted to show off the thigh highs, so two carefully placed safety pins kept my skirt hiked up all day. This way I was able to wear it at mid-waist rather than on my hips. Safety pins are my new best friend :)

And last, but definitely not least, is the outfit I wore this last Thursday. I had a presentation at the Roosevelt hotel (midtown Manhattan) last week, which I had been anxious about so when my man suggested I go shopping afterwards as a treat to myself, I couldn't resist. And I'm glad I went because I found some great dresses on sale at H&M, like the one pictured above for $10. I love the 60s feel I get wearing this dress and plan to put it into heavy rotation, especially this coming fall.
