When you're relieved and consequently happy life doesn't seem so dreadful. I recently went through something that made me feel broken; I cried my eyes out at the prospect of losing something that I've never experienced until now. Luckily, I came out on the other end feeling certain of my feelings and hoping to have an ending that rivals fairy tales.

An Exercise in Pretend

Thrifted sweater
H&M skirt
boots & scarf via Pay Half
glasses via street vendor on St.Marks


I woke up today and the title came to mind when I thought about the situation I'm in. I had a chance meeting with a guy last month and we've been getting to know each other ever since. Unfortunately he lives on the west coast and though there's talk of him moving to ny (all his idea and not for me but I may be incentive), I'm not sure how quickly that will happen. The distance makes it feel unreal. It's like we're pretending.

H&M jacket & shorts
F21 faux fur vest
Minnetonka boots
DIY socks
UO bag


Here's a look from last week; I wore this to do what I do best: shop. I had a goal for this shopping trip though, to buy a kick ass poncho. I succeeded. Can't wait to post the poncho look.

Side note: thank sweet baby Jesus (that is the version of Jesus I choose to acknowledge) that it's Wednesday. I'm done with my internship for the week and only have a couple days of work left.


Ttyl,

BDG cords
Bass loafers
Lark & Wolff button down
jacket via Pay Half
street vendor glasses (St.Marks)
UO ear cuff

Since joining the StyleLikeU team I've watched many of the closets (videos). One of the features, Taylor Moore, described his style as rebel school boy. I was so inspired by his bad boy infused southern style that I thought I would put together by own rebel school boy look.



Happy Monday pretty people,

F21 skirt & necklaces
Civico 10 boots
Thrifted Gap blazer


I've had this thrifted velvet blazer for awhile now. I saw it and thought it was too good to leave behind. Here's where the problem lies, every time I tried to wear it I looked like I was heading to the office. Fail. Anyway, I finally found a way to wear it. Ta da!


I'm out *drops mic*,

H&M faux fur collar, faux fur jacket, sweatshirt & sweat pants
No.704b boots
F21 bag


When two shoe obsessed people come together the first place they think to go is DSW. My sister-in-law was in town last week so we went shoe shopping. The Gucci shoes she wanted were a little too pricey but I walked away with an incredible pair of light brown Coach boots and cute forest green lace up heeled shoes by Seychelles. Can't wait to wear them :-D


Hope your Sunday is a lazy one,
