What I Wore: Fancy Florals

blouse: thrifted, levi shorts: thrifted, bdg tennis shoes: uo, tights: walmart

I hit up the thrift store...again. I have been looking for a really flowy floral top as of late and wouldn't you know it, the first thing I see when I walk into the thrift store is this floral gem. I don't about you, but I suffer in hot weather. Don't get me wrong, I love summer. LOVE. But there is something about 100+ degree weather that kills me. It doesn't help that I pair tights with shorts...but I'm not subjecting the innocent public to my legs.

AND OH MY WORD.

You guys, the pairing of my blue tights and red shoes looks awfully familiar...I AM SPIDERMAN.

Daily Outfit: Vintage Houndstooth Coat

coat: thrifted, skirt: thrifted, tights: walmart, shirt: thrifted, belt: thrifted, boots: ebay

Ok, do you want to hear an AWESOME story? So I'm at the thrift store today, right? I went in search of specific items telling myself all the while to NOT deviate to the clothes. All I can say is that I tried...I really tried not to look at the clothes. BUT had I not, I would not have walked away with the hounds-tooth trophy I am wearing. And to make the story better? This coat wasn't even in the coat section. Some girl had hidden it away in the vest section...odd, I know. I spotted the coat, snatched it off the hanger and watched as the girl who hid it wander aimlessly around for a good ten minutes before realizing that I had the coat in my hands and was walking directly to the cash register. Yes, sometimes it pays to be cruel. To all the kids out there, don't listen to me.

Daily Outfit: A Blustery Yellow Skirt

shirt: thrifted, sweater: buffalo exchange, skirt: thrifted, belt: thrifted, tights: forever21, boots: ebay

Utah isn't located near an ocean. So can someone please explain to me why we experienced hurricane-like winds all over the state today? I mean, really, 120 mph winds? I kind of wish it just would've have snowed instead, you know, to celebrate the first day of December. Now THAT would have been cool, not semi's blowing over on the freeway... 

Anyways! I (along with my sister, Emily) braved the winds to take these pics. I found this skirt at the thrift store during one of my "snow white" highs. The skirt screamed "snow white" and so I kind of sort of just had to have it. It goes with anything and everything and I absolutely love it. The sweater was purchased at a thrift store in California during one of our many trips to Disneyland. And the tights? Well, who doesn't love a pair of floral loveliness?

Daily Outfit: Magenta and Houndstooth

The clouds outside seemed a little on the gray side today, so, I thought to myself, why not brighten it up with a nice, bright, magenta sweater! I found the skirt just the other day at the thrift store and have been practically dying to pair it with a cute vintage sweater. I have had my eye on that ridiculously cute Sarah Coventry brooch since I started working at Planted Earth. On Saturday, I finally made it mine. Happiness. I've been searching high and low for decently priced Poetic License heels. When I found these on Anthropologie's website, I passed out. Not only because they are incredible, but they are also incredibly PRICEY. Thank you eBay! And to my little sister Sarah, seriously, I hope you are enrolled in photography, you have an eye for it!

Daily Outfit: A Dash of Pink

I thought it was going to be chilly today so I made sure to bundle up. Well, about halfway through work the heater really started heating up and I was getting WARM. But, on the bright side, it was a gorgeous day outside. Mom and I ran some errands ( she asked if I wanted to go to Savers, I am still in shock), taking Emily to guitar lessons, visiting Grandma and Grandpa (no, that's not an errand, but a pleasure), watching Vampire Diaries (they can't really expect me to wait till January to see the next episode, do they?). Both the skirt and the blouse in this outfit have amazing little details which you can't see...and yes, my little sister always looks like that (haha kidding, but I love her anyways)
