so says i

cardi: gap. top: target. dress (worn as skirt): urban outfitters. leggings: forever 21. boots: vintage. necklace: forever 21.

it's pattern mixing day!! i for one am admit that i am not very adventurous when it comes to mixing patterns in my outfit. which is kind of weird because i LOVE mixing up patterned papers in my scrapbooking and such. so i kind of struggled with this theme...i think i threw on about 3 different outfits this morning (and yes, i literally ran out the door...AGAIN).

i decided to go with something simple on top, like these stripes, to balance out a more fun print on the bottom. i also did the wearing dress as a skirt thing, which i'd never tried before. i like that it gives me more options in remixing my dresses. the only problem was that it didn't quite want to stay up where i wanted it to be, but that's what belts are for, i suppose?

also, this necklace may be my new favorite because i've worn it almost every single day for the last week. it jingles too, so if i get los, i will make noise so someone can find me!

anyways. excuse the redness in my face. i took these pics on the way home from happy hour. they call it asian glow for a reason, you know what i mean?

also check out my wind-blown hair.

sexy! ...NOT. seriously though, this wind is why i'm freezing ALL THE TIME. grrr.
