More Stripes and Bow Flats

Okay, I have been SLACKING in the outfit picture taking department. I've actually worn a few outfits that I have loved but I have been so busy...living life...that I've taken a turn toward laziness with the cameras.

What fun "life" things have I been doing? Christmas-y things with the hubby! Craft fairs, Christmas parades...homework...more homework...tests....more Christmas fun! lol

I do have ONE simple outfit to share...yay! Yesterday I wore a striped painter's tee (JCrew), skinny jeans rolled up a little (Hollister....it was 70 degrees out!!), and leather bow flats (thrifted--JCrew). Oh yeah...and a brown leather belt (old--Target). Yes, I rocked black and brown (again)...and I loved it.

I love that deep red polish I am wearing. It's one of Sally Hansen's quick dry colors. I really need to repaint my nails now though...I ruined them with the fabric glue...who knew (here)? Beware people that use the strong fabric glue available at Walmart...it may ruin your manicure! :)

Black and White....and Jeans

I was in a black and white mood yesterday. It was brought on by a recently thrifted necklace. The necklace (that you will see...post surgery...in pictures below) used to have a huge dangle-y thing coming down from the middle. I hated that part....so I took it off. Apart from the necklace I  kept it super simple (shocking!! lol). I wore a white tee (JCrew), a black cardigan (Target...super old), skinny jeans (Hollister), and black suede boots (JCrew) (better pics here, here, and here).

Yay for iphone pics! lol Have you ever altered a piece of jewelry that you felt had lots of potential but needed some help before it was wearable?
