Wearing White After Labor Day

Yep I did it.

In case you haven't noticed, I don't follow fashion rules. I do what I want. Seriously. So when a cold front blew in to town, I definitely wanted to break out my favorite brown boots for the day. They've been through a LOT with me in the span of a year!

I purchased this dress from ASOS Curve in the early summer and wore it to work where I received many compliments. Seeing as how 1.) It's a creamy white color and 2.) It has horizontal stripes, I'd say I struck gold with this purchase. I wound up buying an ASOS Maternity** dress with a similar vibe, only it's navy blue with bright yellow stripes and a gold zipper in the back.

**I AM NOT PREGNANT, I AM NOT PREGNANT, NO I'M NOT PREGNANT.** (I just liked the colors used in the dress and decided to give it a go. You can't even tell it's made for someone with child.)

I paired it with my trusty knit open vest from New York and Co., ruched leggings from Torrid and my fave boots. Since I wear an identification lanyard at work, I decided no necklace and instead wore 2 bracelets and my gunmetal watch from NY and Co. My hair is growing like weeds, compare these pics to the ones from this time last year. Crazy!

Anyone else breaking fashion rules left and right? I know I'll continue to!

Happy New Year!

I know I said I would upload what I wore for Christmas..2 weeks ago...whoops!

I went to church with my family that morning and then changed once I got home before we headed to a relative's house for Christmas festivities. I planned on eating a lot of food (LOL) so I made sure I was very comfortable ;-)

Also, in the third outfit I'm wearing one of my most FAVORITE tops. I purchased it from ASOS in November I think. I've worn in 3 or 4 times so far and absolutely love it! I like wearing it tucked in but I also wear it out too. I've paired in with the skirt and skinny jeans as well. The super long pieces in the front for the tie were weird for me to figure out at first but once I realized exactly how to tie it, they worked out. I'm not sure if it's still available online but if so, you should definitely snatch it up! I wore this to one of my friends graduation dinners.

Next up...my Target haul. Hopefully I'll have time later this week to post it. I bought some heels amongst other things but they're so high I may end up returning them lol. We'll see!
