HI, I FOUND DOROTHY'S SHOES

channeling my inner dorothy with my favorite red boots!

[foreign exchange blazer, luna b belt, aldo boots, balenciaga bag, glasses stolen from my roommate]

having a full time marketing career doesn't mean you can't add a little punch to your 8-5 work outfit. red anything adds an side of ooOomph to your look.

DEFINITELY NOT IN KANSAS ANYMORE KIDDIES

“Art is what you can get away with.” ― Andy Warhol

[if this outfit looks familiar, it's because i dressed my little cousin it in on my last post, my mini me. lush clothing jacket, diamond supply tee, luna b beanie]

the highlight of my trip in texas: running around in the rain with my sissy in deep ellum looking at all the amazing street art that dallas has to offer. the best random adventure, ever.

fave piece(s): skeleton painting and the paintings on the ground. awesome blossom.

loving random adventures,

GONE FISHTAIL

[quiksilver sweater, target boots]

i was just in texas this past weekend to celebrate an early Christmas with my family. there's really no better time than family time. my sister was awesome blossom enough to play paparazzi for me. all i did was eat, get starbucks, sleep and repeat. i probably gained like 4 lbs in 4 days... thank goodness this is the season of layers. while we were taking these photos, there was a GIANT spider next to me, so we ran away screaming. thank goodness we got some good shots in.

i totally hate spiders,

CRUSHIN

selena gomez was really cute during her disney channel days, but since then she's matured pretty nicely! fashion wise and career wise, she's made fabulous choices and is becoming one of my fave red carpet celebrities. AND i think she's way too good for justin bieber.... JUST SAYINNNNN.


my fave: the ivory tulle embroidered Marchesa mini
sexy, cute and classy!

thanks for reading!
