Is there such a thing as "too dressy" for an afternoon of reading at the Ohio State University oval.. or any University, in fact, where there is the possibility of hunkable, shirtless guys tossing around a Frisbee? I didn't think so either... but the homestead disagreed. Originally I was planning plaid flannel buttoned to the top with a pearls and chains necklace (one of my favorite combos) and a high waisted mini.. much more sensible... but when i got the opportunity to wear the Vera Wang shorts (the Kholes line of course!) I couldn't pass it up! To jazz up the ensemble I went with a forest green, braided at the collar Gap blouse and Vera tights and shoes :) Forever 21 provided the jewelery, with owl studs and a bow headband! Cute right? .. my family's nuts. But anywho, after my dressy-butt had wonderful tour of the pristine and b-e-a-utiful OSU campus with the lovely Shauna Marie (future student and heartthrob), I HAD to see if my funnel neck coat was in at Urban Outfitters. However, to my dismay, there was no sign of any winter clothing and I was ready to leave, deeply saddened. But, right when I was about to loose all hope.. I meandered my way to the sales section (fully aware that I was there to look not touch) and saw the most adorable pair of BDG oxfords.. for, get this, $19.90! In a normal situation, they would be mine, right then and there. However, with the eye infuriated at me, I walked away hoping that I could return one day with money to buy the suckers! Here they are, in all their glory, the dazzling oxfords (don't they make you want to dance around like Gene Kelly!)
Have you ever listened to someones voice and felt like you've had an epiphany? Well, that may possibly have just occurred after my ears were graced by the We the Kings collaboration with Demi Lovato, I mean DAMN, that girl has got Haley William's lungs! So, naturally, after I fell madly in love with the song, I got my butt over to youtube to check out the music video. Another WTF moment... who is this girl? One minute I'm watching her on the Princess Camp whatever dancing next to the celibate triplets, and the next minute she is looking drop dead gorgeous in a sexy blazer and mini shorts... not to mention, her hair looks fantastic! (Side note- why I want to grow out my hair - on the off chance that We the Kings knocks on my door asking me to appear in one of their music videos, it's possible, I can have a fabulous flipping mane like Demi!) Her personal style has grown from mouseketeer to full blown hard-edge rocker.. and i'm freckin' loving it! Feathered fedoras, destroyed jeans (which are a tricky thing to pull off), and die-able leather booties all gussy up this young starlet's wardrobe (while keeping it classy, might I add... cough *miley* cough *cyrus*) It's time to jump the off the crazy train (Disney empire) and join the norms! I'll be looking up where she got those tights (shown below) while I try to insert clever..
