floral...

yay, it is finally springtime!

i have been in heaven with open windows and the sound of birds and lawnmowers.

i love spring.

and i love how every clothing store i walk into this season has so many floral items.

i cannot get enough.

there is nothing prettier and more feminine than floral.

and how cute are kimonos right now?!

i'm obsessed.

spring 2014 has some amazing trends!

kimono: forever21

romper: target

nylons: walmart {diy distressed}

shoes: jessica simpson

headband: monroe & harlow {here}

hello, 2014...

well happy 2014 everyone!

i decided that this super girly, sparkly, and leopard print outfit was perfect for the new year. 

i got these bottoms {as a christmas gift} from charming charlie.

and i discovered that leopard leggings are extremely hard to pull off when you are short and curvy! 

i completely wish that it was still as stylish as it used to be to wear skirts over leggings. 

a large oversized sweater would have been perfect but of course i don't have one!

i really should have one- everyone has one and they are so cute. 

so i had to get creative and go shopping in my own closet.

and i have to tell you- just about every single item i own was on my floor! 

it took me so long to find a top that went well with the leggings and was still flattering. 

so anyways, this is what i came up with! 

overly feminine outfits are the best- don't you think?

oh, and also- this scarf is from wal mart!

it's really hard to tell from the pictures but there are little gold sequins scattered all over it. 

i absolutely love it.

all of the scarves at wal mart were really cute actually.

sometimes that store can surprise me!

have a wonderful first week of 2014!!

december style...

 ok, so first off i just want to say that if anyone happened to be on my blog over the last few days and clicked on any links or pictures and were redirected to spam websites- i'm sorry, it's because i was hacked.

having your blog hacked is a horrible feeling.

so i just wanted to let everyone know who has a blogger account and isn't using the google 2-step verification yet- get it now!

seriously. 

it's so easy and so fast.

but ok- on to better things...
i have been dying to wear red and gold for the christmas season.
i found these shoes at a thrift store last weekend and they are a half size too small but i don't even care!
they are so chrsitmasy...
i love them.
and i thought that this shirt was perfect as well.
i found it at rue21 for only $6!
i have been wearing rue21 a lot lately because it's the only store in my town and so, so cheap.
and i'm really starting to love the place.
and if you are looking for an extra holiday touch- this headband from monroe & harlow is just perfect! 

 top: rue21

pants: fragile via t.j. maxx

shoes: merona (thrifted)

belt: calvin klein via marshalls

headband: monroe & harlow here

purse: marc jacobs via nordstrom rack

enjoy the rest of your week! 

camo and plum...

camo is one of my very favorite prints right now.

it's doesn't always give off the most feminine look, however.

so i decided to pair it with a flowy dress and some girly accessories like my plum head band and pink necklace.

together i thought it worked as a very feminine fall look.

are you loving camo too?

dress: mimi chica via t.j.maxx

jacket: american eagle

boots: vince camuto via dillards

headband: monroe & harlow

necklace: rue21

sweet native...

 this outfit includes a whole bunch of my very favorite things!

~

native print.

it is just the cutest thing ever right now.

this headband is the very first native piece to land in my wardrobe- but hopefully not the last.

hearts.

anything with hearts, well, steals my heart! 

and they just look adorable no matter what the season.

peplum.

well, who doesn't love peplum??

pointy-toed heels.

so feminine and classy.

and they help add some length to shorter legs, like mine- which is a must! 

a dainty clutch.

this clutch is super special to me because it was a gift from my mom last easter.

and she got it at an antique store which makes me love it a thousand times more! 

and it's silver.

silver is coming back and i'm finally getting really excited about it.

a white winter coat.

this coat is making me so excited for christmas that i can't even stand it!

coat: bb dakota via dillards

top: rue21

skirt: bb dakota via a thrift store

shoes: steve madden (got them at a yard sale for $3!)

headband: monroe & harlow

my mom bought this magazine for me because i LOVE the hills! 

i always have and always will.

i have every season on dvd and they have gotten me through some of the toughest times throughout the last few years.

i haven't had the opportunity to read through it yet, but i'm hoping i will get the chance right after i finish this post! 

i can't wait to read all about what heidi, lauren, and audrina have been up to...

has anyone else read this magazine yet??
