Summertime Remix

Hey my friends!

Hope you are well. Today I'm remixing some of my favorite summer pieces to create a winter look for work. (Say that 5 times fast). I think it came out well! I honestly can't get enough of this skirt and I wish I could wear it several times a week. Unfortunately, the people I work with would probably start to notice and take up a "She looks nice but doesn't have enough money for other clothes" collection. I digress.

My favorite thing to do to transform any summer look into a winter one is to add tights. They are my best friend during the cold months since I don't particularity like pants. I have several "365" dresses that I keep in my closet because of the tights and boots or tights and heels combination. I hope that never goes out of style.

P.S. See my Rocksbox pieces? I'm wearing the heck out of 'em!

Ink and Elm and Snow Leopard Spots

Hey my friends!

I hope you had a glorious weekend with those you love. I have a confession to make. I meant to make it all the way until September without spending any money on clothes. But what had happened was....it was the hubs' birthday and I didn't have anything to wear. You can see my dilemma. So I bought this skirt and Rocked it for a night out with my man. We went to the cutest restaurant named Ink and Elm. Such fun! Such food! We had a great time trying new things and enjoying one another's company. I would definitely recommend if you are in the Atlanta/Emory Village area (Just make sure you are prepared to eat at McDonald's for awhile after. It can get a bit pricey).

The skirt was yet another find from Marshalls. I was sifting through the rack and fell in love as soon as I laid eyes on it. I mean, who wouldn't? Look at that pattern! So again, you understand why I needed it. I thought you would. You guys are the best.

Twofer Tuesday

Hey my friends!

Random Tuesday post :-) I hope this week has been kind to you! 

Today I bring not one but two outfits that I love. But let me tell you they do not photograph well. Which is a tragedy because they are both super cute. Just use your imagination if you can't tell :-) Both of these looks are all about my favorite trend this summer. Bright colors! I have had so much fun mixing and discovering new color combinations that I'm surprised I was scared to try it before. I can be so lame sometimes.

The first look is more of a fall look (perhaps a London trip look??) but works well for summer too. 

The second look (sorry for the photo quality, it was raining outside but I really really want to take pics) features a maxi skirt I found in a little vintage shop in Atlanta. When I saw it, I fell in love. It's so exotic looking! Like Chiquita Banana! All I need are fruits on my head.

Girlfriend Clothes Swap 2014

Hey my friends! 

Sooooo by now this is old news since I took a hiatus to move into a new place ( I always forget how stressful that is. Like "I'm ready to burn all this junk" kind of stressful) Thankfully the hubs and I have mostly settled in and I can get back into my normal groove again. 

This haul post is brought to you by the girlfriend clothes swap! Have any of you ever done this? You and a bunch of friends get together with all the clothes you no longer want (respectively) and viola! No better example of one person's trash is another person's treasure. It's a great way to freshen up a wardrobe without spending anything. Well maybe something ( I did buy a bottle of wine for the event). 

Here are my picks!

The trousers are from Paris!!

No matter your size, accessories always fit!

I'm pretty happy with everything. I'm grateful my friends have such great taste!
