Happy 4th of July everyone! I hope y'all had a wonderful day. I know I did. Oh, you will never believe what I saw tonight! Floating lanterns!! It was so cool to see them across the sky! I'll have to see if Gabrielle took a picture of them. If she did I'll post a picture for y'all to see. =)

30 for 30 Remix - Outfit 21 & 22


Cream Tunic Anthropologie / Black Pencil Skirt made by me / Black Belt Forever 21 / Black Pumps Famous Footwear / Cameo Necklace Portobello Road Market / Eiffel Tower Earrings Etsy / Red Polka-dot Scarf Target



Cream Tunic Anthropologie / Jeans J.C. Penny / Cameo Necklace Portobello Road Market / Eiffel Tower Earrings Etsy / Red Polka-dot Scarf Target


You may wonder, where is outfit number twenty? Well....I didn't remember to take pictures of my outfit yesterday until 10:50PM. Yep, just a little too late to take pictures of my outfit. It's really hard to remember to take pictures on the week-end and during the holiday's. So I'll just tell y'all what I wore. =) Let's see...ah, yes, I wore my shorts {hand-me-down Gap}, blue ruffle t-shirt {Ann Taylor}, red polka-dot scarf {Target}, and sandals {Forever 21}.

I really like the outfit I wore to church today. It's a little vintage-y and even a little dash of patriotic. You know what? I really like tucking my Anthropologie tunic into high-waisted skirts. It's cute and different. Oh, I also finished my birthday dress today. It's so cute and something Casey of Elegant Musings would wear. I can't wait to show it to y'all either on Tuesday, or Wednesday. ;-)

30 for 30 Remix - Outfit 18


1940s Jean Jumper made by yours truly {pattern review} / Hot Pink Blouse J.C. Penny / Tan Boots Target / Black Belt Forever 21 / Floral Dangle Earrings Etsy {won in a giveaway}


I've worn an outfit like this before on the blog - just with a different belt & pair of earrings. But I knew this outfit looked nice and I needed an outfit fast this morning for work - a dressy one too. Tomorrow I'm going to try and be more creative with my outfit. But I have to be careful and not wear too many red, white, and blue outfits before the 4th. As I love dressing for the holiday's. =)

Maxi Skirts for Summer from Forever21


Last weekend I went to a Forever21 store and fell in love with their selection of maxi skirts, cheep jewelry, darling tops, and some really cute belts and shoes. :) I must also confess, it was only the second time I had ever stepped into the store. But now I think that I really like Forever21.


 What's your favorite skirt from Forever21?

Feelin' Feminine's Spring Challenge {Day 4}

Here it is, the forth day of Feelin' Feminine's Spring Challenge. Are you ready for today's post. :) First off, what this challenge is about. The basic idea of the Challenge is to wear skirts for 7 full days and take a photo of your outfit each day, then post it on your blog. You can do different hairstyles, mix and match outfits, and different shoes. While there are no outfit ‘requirements’, we do ask, for the sake of our mission, writers, and readers please make sure that dress/skirt are at least knee length and that shirts aren’t sleeveless.


{read all about the challenge here.}

What I'm Wearing: Red Jumper {made by me}; White Blouse {Kohl's}; Denim Halter Vest {made by me}; Brown Belt {Maurice's}; Tan Boots {Target}; and Post Earrings {Kohl's}.


I've worn this jumper several times on the blog already. I wanted to wear it again on the blog, but completely different - as a skirt! How fun is that?!? I see myself wearing the jumper as a skirt in different combinations in the coming months. Maybe I'll come up with some type of challenge for myself. Like only wearing this dress for a week or something.

I don't have much to do today - except organize and throw away all the fabric pieces I have saved over the years. Interesting to note that I'm wearing a patchwork skirt while throwing away fabric scraps. :p 

Now it's your turn to post your outfit for today.

Saltwater - UK Clothing Line

{This week's posts are all pre-scheduled (except for the giveaway winner & Friday's post). As I'm going to be busy taking an art class all week.}

There is many a time when I wished I lived over in the UK just for the shopping. There are so many cute & modest choices over there. Plus, they are so my style. Today's featured store is called, Saltwater. Every season I look forward to their new collection - and I fall in love with stuff all over again each time. =) That's how much I adore this store. It's pretty epic.

 










Jersey Vest SHK03 in Chalk
Polka Dot Cardi S8K04 in Cobalt
Dandelion Skirt S3K01 in Cobalt



Do you like Saltwater? What's your favorite thing/outfit? Or do you just LOVE it all! ;-)

Nancy Drew Fashion Week - Day 1


Are y'all excited for the Nancy Drew fashion week? I know I am. Today I decided to be more of a 1960s/modern inspired Nancy Drew. As the jacket I'm wearing is made from a vintage 1960s pattern and I'm wearing t-strap heels. Plus, the pencil skirt is classic. 

What I'm wearing: 1960s Jacket {made by me}; Cream Ruffle T-shirt {Kohl's}; Jean Pencil Skirt {Made by me}; Brown T-strap Heels {Naturlizer}; Pearl Drop Earrings with Bows {Brittany Chavers Etsy shop}; and the Pink Fairy Flexi Clip {c/o Lilla Rose}


Looking at these pictures it seams like either I grew taller, or my clothes have shrunk. As several of my skirts and dresses now hit at this shorter length. Oh, dear. I sorta of hope it's the latter, as I thought I would have stopped growing by now. :p

Now it's time for you to link up your outfit for today {the direct link to your post}. So go ahead and link up your post/pictures below in the linky thing below. Oh, and remember there are three category's you can enter in. So be sure to let me know what category you are entering in. Thanks!


1. Nancy-Vintage 
2. Nancy-Modern 
3. Nancy-Costume
