Double Header.

Pretty sure yesterday I slacked reallll hard. I was going to post, but my body decided to pass out after the Utah Bee's baseball game. So today because of game ill post both outfits.
Yesterdays outfit was a no brainer, literally... I like to call outfits such as this one: THE "IT" GIRL.
Why might you ask?.... Because our favorite IT girls rock the same look at least once or more. Mary-Kate, Ashley, Misha, Lindsay, LC, Hilary, Paris, Nicky, and Nicole, just to name a few, but this traditional outfit comes from what I like to think of as, "The night after look"... although this might not be the case every time, I'm sure it is at least once. Our rehab lovers, well majority of them even if we wouldn't like to admit, have made this look stick with me. Now for further explanation, this is the kind of outfit one wakes up to from after a crazy late night. It consists of the classic Fedora (1st addition, to hide last nights hair of course) or one of their favorite Scarves (1st, or a joined combination) paired with skinny's or a wide leg jeans with the classic white tee in "the tuck". (If you'd like a collage of this look, id be happy to make it for my fellow bloggers, but I just figure its just a used outfit you all will know what I'm talking about)

This outfit wins the award for effortless, morning after chic... and lets just say I sympathize with our fashion darlings about a late crazy night. The no brainier is a life saver.






Fedora- Hype, Shirt- American Apparel, Trousers- Charolette Russe, Shoes- Michael Antonio, Rings- Vintage.


Now in continuation... Even though I was at a Utah Bee's game. What better time to wear my team hat....GO JAYS!


Ten innings, and the apposing team was winning 5, 0... But we came back to tie it up 5 for 5, but it was the 10th inning and we just couldn't wait any longer to see who won, so we left. Its not like its a Jays game anyways....and on that note I think every woman should at least own one fitted hat, they are highly under-rated for women.

On todays outfit, do you ever have that one item in your closet you just love and could never be rid of but never really can pair it with much? This is the recipe for disaster with my favorite L.A.M.B shorts. They are completely darling and I love them to death, but the awkward shape of the shorts would lead to really interesting proportions. But alas finally a combination that offset the bulkiness of the shorts, hopefully.







Shirt- Old Navy, Shorts- L.A.M.B, Belt- Michael Kors, Shoes- WetSeal, Jewelry- Juicy Couture.

The Tuck.

To tuck or not to tuck, that... is the question.


This spring and summer season as I become obsessed with the T-shirt all over again I have fallen in complete and utter love with the "tuck". Although I haven't been able to share this mutual love with you since I am a blog beginner, I thought what better time than another manic Monday! Ill show you my ensemble later in the post, but Id like to focus on my key inspiration of the "tuck". Mary Kate and Ashley Olsen... fashion Icons no doubt or just your occasional spoiled brats, but I find some liking in there wear from day to day. When Mary Kate doesn't wear the same shirt three days in a row, and Ashley actually does her hair, one can really pay attention, as did I when I fell in love with the tuck. For me my t-shirt faze is a small one, I tend to lean towards more professionally dressed at times instead of a plain t-shirt, yet this put me right back in check for the perfect balance of a casual look, but not toooo grungy (we cant really not have a bit of grunge). So once I saw the twins pull this look off time and time again, I wondered why I hadn't jumped on the bandwagon yet. So after I got over the self conscious factor I just did it, and we have lived happily ever after... except for the occasional hole in the shirt, then the tuck really pisses me off... ♥

A little bit of everything.


CONGRATULATIONS BOSTON CELTICS!

Although they are no Utah Jazz, they aren't half bad. Plus anyone that defeats the Lakers by a long haul is ok in my book. Plus I have little girl crush on Ryan Allen and Rajon Rondo. Oh and congratulations to rookie Gabe Pruitt my personal Celtic and pal... first season in the NBA and he already has a championship under his belt. Sorry Lakers fans, you needed to loose this one... plus the Lakers are way to trendy they need to fade out, like the Yankees!

But now back to business...
This morning, I was extremely attracted to the grandma sweater, but it is to damn hot to wear a sweater and jeans... so L.Lohan bring on the tights, because after the butt rule, I could totally get used to this... Leggings as pants once again, for having such a neutral outfit I got quite a few stares today, and its bad when I actually notice... but then again... I live in Utah, can i blame them... everyones used to Abercrombie and Hollister... drives me mad.

On that note... I live above a mall... so I am quite aware of THE VS SEMI ANNUAL SALE. After yesterday and today I wont lie, im ridiculously broke. I have been trying to transform my undergarments closet as well, and it turned out quite successful. But now im quite broke... but this happens twice a year, a girl is totally allowed to splurge at least twice... and mama mia did I ever... Well ladies if you haven't gone in, go I love all the colors and fabrics that they don't carry regularly that they always sell at the sale!

Alright got alittle excited there, back to grandma sweaters.

The Product:







In addition to my grandma sweater my MY NEW SHOES FINALLY CAME IN AS PREDICTED.
So for all you darlings that asked for modeling pictures, I just couldn't contain myself and wait so I just through them on with the same ensemble and the finish turned out better than expected.. the nude tones in the shoes really worked with my outfit. These shoes are going to be so easy to dress... since in some cases I find one thing and work the outfit around them... and I have a feeling it will be the shoes. (Also I did a zoom in picture of my right food so you could all see my tattoo that some of you have been asking about!)






I love them♥
