Tie Back

I'm back to teaching this semester, only three days a week but, it feels good to be doing what I love.


I added this striped jacket to a simple linen dress for my first back to school outfit. 



I'm behind on my blogging and my blog posts, once I start getting into the swing of things, regular posting should resume.

Block Heel

A dress, how original...


Another dress, another day to wear my denim jacket, not much new here except the shoe.




Something about the look of this sandal made it feel very fresh and I think it is the block heel. Yes, you read that correctly, I know it probably brings up images of old church ladies but I promise you this is not your Grandma's shoe.



And the little touch of neon doesn't hurt either!

Dress: Prabal Gurung for Target ($2.58!!)
Denim Jacket: Old Navy-thrifted ($4)
Shoes: Tommy Hilfiger-TJ Maxx ($10)

My favorite new dress

Polka-dotted, ruffled, 100% silk wrap dress, it can't get better than this!



It can, if it is a made in the USA, Tucker wrap dress.


And even better when you find it brand new with tags at a consignment shop for about 10% of it's original price! See Piperlime.



Now you know why this is my favorite new dress!

Slouchy

Dressed up cut-off jeans...it's all the rage and this is my interpretation. 


A slouchy, silky blouse and a wedge sandal take these Levi's out on the town.



It was a different look for me and I liked it for a Saturday night.


Do you notice my fuzzy halo? My hair is starting to grow back!!!  It is very fine and very light, I'm really curious to see what my new hair will look like. As my hair is growing back all of my remaining eyelashes and eyebrows are falling out. I'm struggling to look normal, but trying hard to stay fashionable!


Shirt: Talbot's-thrifted
Shorts: Levi's-thrifted and cut off
Sandals: Old...payless

Vintage Style White Dress

This dress had such a vintage quality to the styling, I couldn't pass it up. 


So, I played it up with a wedge and a shot next to my 1940 Chevy vintage pick up truck!


These Stuart Weitzman wedges added to the overall vintage vibe.


Dress: Thrifted
Shoes: Stuart Weitzman-thrifted
Belt: J.Crew
