In Bloom





Dress, Cardigan: Forever 21
Scarf, Tights: Target
Clogs: Jcpenny's
Necklace: Gifted
Ring: Random store

I think today; I should have layered a bit more or thrown on some jeans because it was really cold and really windy! Also....I think I might have shrunk the dress I'm wearing a little when I washed it because I remember it being a bit longer, oh well, I guess it's okay to show a bit more leg when wearing with tights. As for the clogs, I felt like I was back in the 60's with them and with the dress. All I needed was to add some flowers in my hair and the look would have been complete! I think the inner flower child in me was trying to free itself a little. Hence, the following song to pull everything together:

A wonderland of my own!




Stripe Tee: H&M
Floral Skirt: H&M
Belt: Forever 21
Flats: Chinese Laundry

Today, I went to visit my sister and niece and have some girl bonding time! We don't get to spend too much time together,so I felt I needed to make the drive and fix that. So for the outfit, I decided to step it up a notch because we would be having photo op time with my niece. Unfortunately, she did not make it into the shots because she "does not like her picture taken!". Next time, I will have to sneak her cute little self into my shots. I hope you are reading this Teresita!
So this ensemble, was a test to see if I could pull off the stripes with floral look. I have not been able to try this and I actually like how it came out! In fact....it almost looks like it was a dress! It was a bit difficult to see how the colors would all work together and how the different prints would collide. But they did and I'm happy for that!
As for the shots, it was nice to pretend to be Alice in Wonderland; with the way too small house and the floral garden surrounded by a white picket fence. Hmm...... I think next time I will search for the white rabbit! Therefore, "Good-bye Dina, good- byyyeeeee!"

I'm Green with Envy





THESE are the actual pictures of the outfit I wanted to share with you guys. Today I felt like wearing green  because I was envious of the fact that I did not get to enjoy the beautiful hot weather with all those people lounging out in front of my workplace. It would be awesome if on days like these work would let me leave early to enjoy it, but no can do. So to compensate for that, I figured I would wear a color that would reflect how I was feeling.
 I wanted to mix the different greens from my top and the skirt to bring out the little peach flowers that are on the print of this skirt. I love floral prints and anything with flowers because they look so pretty and besides that they don't give me allergies :)
