pinafores are tough right?

Not sure where this outfit came from since I spent the day in my classroom getting ready for week two. I went to get dressed and my mind said, "pinafore and leather jacket please" so I complied. That being said I love this mix of tough and sweet. Like me :)  Okay, I wish I were tough. Really this is me trying to pretend like I'm tough. Did it work? Just say yes.

I have been obsessed with this bird love shadowbox necklace for a while now but had to promise not to wear it on the blog until they released it on their etsy site. Well, it's up, so get one while the getting is good!

smug

jacket: resale from Crossroads
top: H&M
button up: Old Navy clearance
jeans: $20 at Target!!
boots: Simply Vera Wang from Kohl's clearance

Spring break is here and though the weather is grey and I feel super mellow, I am positively thrilled to have the whole week with no work! Since the weather here in Oakland is not cooperating I am taking off for sunnier warmer climates. Texas here I come! My lucky stars must have all aligned because my best friend is able to take a couple days off, have her mom watch my goddaughter, thereby allowing her to road trip to Austin with me. I can't imagine a more perfect way to spend this week off.

This blue grey outfit is a direct result of the blue mood pulling at me and the grey skies above. Blah! At least my $20 jeans are perfect. I just want to strut around all smirky because I didn't have to spend a bajillion dollars to find jeans that fit. But i won't cuz no one likes a smug smirker. Oh, please ignore the expression on my face in the second picture. It is definitely NOT a smirk.

too cool for school

dress: vintage from New Bohemia
belt: target
jacket: resale, $18 at Crossroads!!!
socks, heels; Simply Vera Wang at Kohl's (clearance)

This is going to be brief. It's late and my brain is zapped of everything save getting some shut-eye immediately.

This dress is my most recent vintage purchase from New Bohemia in Austin, acquired in February when visiting my little sis. That store never lets me down. The little socks are a trend I have hesitantly tried a few times are past few months. Verdict...I like it. Anything cute and girly is okay by me. It so reminds me of being 6 and begging my mom to let me wear socks with my jellies (remember jellies???) because I thought it was soooooooo cool. My begging did me no good and I never did get to rock socks and jellies. Ankle socks and heels...almost as cool. ;)


So I once again missed the boat on the EBEW challenge. I have been soooo wanting to participate so I submitted a maxi skirt outfit I wore a while back. I am a cheater-pants, I know :(
