My hives have almost totally cleared up, thank the lawd. I'm feeling much better and like I'm back on my game (who knew allergic reactions could be so exhausting?). I'm not working much the next couple of days, so I'm excited to do a little bit of pre-spring cleaning. I'm for realz about this organization "resolution" I made at the beginning of the year. I'm even going as far as to buy a chest of drawers for my bedroom so I can get all my clothes off the floor. And check out these nifty scarf hangers! I saw a similar one at the mall last weekend for the same price and walked away because I think $10 for one is a little expensive, especially when I'm pretty sure it wouldn't be too hard to make the same thing myself, but seeing as how I don't have a saw, I don't have wood, and--let's face it--I definitely don't have any woodworking skills to speak of, I suppose I'll just pony up and buy a few.
As you can see, for reasons unknown, I'm still trying to rock a slight 90's vibe. You can't go wrong with a plaid shirt right now. You can go wrong with where you buy the plaid shirt, however. I got this one at Target last year and all of the buttons fell off within about 3 months.
Shirt: Target
Dress: American Eagle
Belt: Thrifted
Socks and Earrings: Urban Outfitters
Shoes: Seychelles
Nail polish: Lancome Le Vernis in LE 54 over a purple base

I'm glad to hear the hives is clearing up! & that is a really cool scarf hanger! I'd only have one scarf to put in it though :) & of course, I love your photos. They're really mystical!

Nice outfit, I like the way the bottom of the dress is scalloped and the socks are cute. I love that scarf hanger thing, I need one. :)

Scarves are a huge issue for me as far as organizing them. I bought a couple of bins and rolled up each scarf and put them in there. But I have sooooo many scarves and it's hard to see what I have so I wear the same damned two or three scarves every freak'n day! So, my method doesn't work very well.
ReplyDeleteGlad you're feeling better.
xo,

Thanks for your comment, lovely! Unfortunately the sore throat has progressed into something far worse and I've been bedridden today :'( But in good news, it means I can catch up on reading blogs! :)
ReplyDeleteHa! You're in organising mode too! :D I recently bought some shelving to inspire me to not leave things on the floor. Not sure it'll work... but it was worth a shot... I want to get coat hooks or something so I can hang up my long necklaces. Untangling them is a bitch.
Love how you've teamed the shirt with the dress! The detailing on the bottom of the skirt is incredible x x

zomg, i MUST get one of those scarf hangers!!!!!
ReplyDeleteGood that you're feeling better, you definitely look great my dear! Free tip from your greek friends surviving the recession: you can imitate the scarf-hanger by cutting out of thick cardboard the base, making holes and glueing it on a simple hanger!! (cost:almost none!)

Man, I hate when buttons fall off because I cant sew for s!@t! I love plaid though.
ReplyDeleteAlso, so glad you like the link to the healthy living recipes and blog. She IS very inspiring and her food is AMAZING!
Take care of yourself, and hopefully have no more hives!!! I've had hives once that lasted a moth. It was HORRIBLE!

I pretty much cry with jealously of your hair every time I see your blog. Glad you're feeling better! I use a scarf/tie organizer from Ikea, it was only a few dollars I believe.
ReplyDeleteGood for you--nearly being done with the hives. Glad to hear you are better. A scarf hanger sounds marvelous--I should really think about getting something like that given my love of scarves.
ReplyDeletehi!! first of all i am glad your are feeling better!!

You know, there are blogs we love which, when we see there's a new post, our heart skips a beat. We can't wait to see what new pleasure awaits us. Yours is one of those for me.
ReplyDeleteI like this shade of lipstick on you. And I always laugh at your humor and colorful language. I just need to know... where are the buttons on that shirt??
So glad you are feeling better and you sound like me on the DIY thing
ReplyDeleteSounds good, but hey by the time I break something, start over 3times and hurt myself, it would have been cheaper to just buy the darn thing.

Loving the scalloped hem dress. I am pretty much obsessed with anything scalloped these days. I know by the end of it i'll have 20 scalloped things in my closet, like i now do with stripes.
ReplyDeleteChic on the Cheap

Gorgeous. Love your blog. So glad I'm following.
ReplyDeleteCheck out my blog if you've got time and feel like it. It would mean a lot. I've just started.

loving your earrings and hair!!! so pretty
ReplyDeleteI think plaid and glitter nail varnish is a GREAT combination, and the problem is that these days all buttons are coming off shortly after buying - even with expensive clothes. Enjoy the big spring clean!
ReplyDeleteI love your socks, such a great colour! They add such flair to your outfit!
ReplyDeleteI don't know about in the States but in Canada the chance of getting a job after graduation as a teacher is next to impossible. I will be LUCKY if I get a supply job or a temporary contract. They say it takes about 4-5 yrs to get something permanent. Can I die now? I may need to move but didn't feel like doing it again... I know I'm young but I am ready to settle down!
That scarf hanger is genius! And you are totally rocking the plaid. I see so many people wearing plaid sloppily {probably not a word...} and yet here you are, looking fantastic. Very inspiring!

ReplyDeletelovely layers, your nails are so pretty
ReplyDeleteLooking gorgeous as always missy!! Guest posts by Kavery and I are finished and not a minute too late!! x
ReplyDeleteDig this look and your nail polish!
ReplyDeleteI seriously need myself one of those scarf hangers. I have so many that I've just resorted to hanging them about anywhere there's a spot. which has even come to include my lampshade.
Hola, long time no speak.
ReplyDeleteYou sure brave the weather for the sake of your art. That said, you manage to make what would be a frumpy plaid shirt look chic!
I feel utterly wrong saying this, because I am so not a fan of Twilight (or True Blood, or their predecessors like Buffy the Vampire Slayer), but there's something about the foggy tree-lined setting and the dramatic look on your face in the first photo that completely calls to mind sexy vampire. You just look hot! Love it.
ReplyDeletexox,
Cee
you look so gorgeous! beautiful pics <3
