And since school landed on a Wednesday and my Thursday class was cancelled these two outfits complete my week of this semester's of outfits.

That 70s Show

The return of the denim skirt

When I think about denim skirts I remember two types. One being a denim maxi skirt type from bootlegger's "brody" brand that I wore pretty much everyday...it was probably one of the ugliest things -- but with two slits on the side and all its ill fitting glory I wore it proudly. The other one being the opposite was a tiny mini skirt number which I wore in my early teens. I never thought I'd be dreaming about denim skirts anytime soon but after finding a button-up A-line one in Rome I knew my denim skirt love was about to rekindle.

After buying this skirt I've been on the hunt for a nice light washed denim pencil skirt much like the American Apparel one....but one with more booty room.

Sorry Alexa Chung my outfits better because it includes gelato. You lose.

Festival Fashion

Festival season is here...and even though I'm not partaking this year I do enjoy the hippie fashions! Day one - pair the typical Levis cut-offs with a hippie peasant blouse and some fur (if you're cold) and protect yourself with a nice straw fedora. BAM outfit. Comfort level: 8 depending on boot comfort/heel height.

Not your mom's jeans

I found some high-waisted jeans at a local thrift store for a few dollars with dream of turning them into distressed shorts. I used this YouTube video that showed you had to create this distressed effect, all you need is scissors! Enjoy :)

The Carrie Diaries

The life of Carrie Bradshaw is one I'm sure every woman would love to live. I tried to capture a bit of New York with this Carrie inspired tulle ensemble and by hailing as many yellow cabs as I could find.
