Note to self: Find old Spice Girl/Hanson tape and make sweet 80's necklace

July!

Just a couple of looks, to wear my Steve Madden heels (how I love them, even with the pain they cause)

Dress: Thrifted
Vest: Bitten
Shoes: Steve Madden

Dress: Old Navy
Belt: ?
Shoes: Steve Madden
Inspiration: SJP in the Sex and the city movie. Her studded belt was amazing. I found this belt and thought "why not?"

Hairdos

I'm not very adventurous with my hair. I hardly ever wear it up. I don't really know any cute ways to wear it. I dont even really like wearing it in a ponytail (whats more boring than that?)

But lately all the pretty hairdo's I've been seeing have inspired me....

Rebecca was a recluse always has the most adorable hair:

The first one with the cute Heidi looking hair? So cute, I'll have to try it..... Her instructions on how to get the second hairdo are:

" I do this hairdo or something a lot like it almost everyday It is hard to explain how to do it though. I basically have the hair is three sections and try to get a ton of volume for the top one. After pinning all the sections, I use a pair of hairsticks to keep the sections in place as my hair is very heavy when I do this. "

And if that isn't helpful, we can just stare at it together and dream.... Plus, isn't her hair color amazing?

Next is the Freelancers Fashion Blog who by now everyone has seen this post on how to create the most beautiful retro hair:


This makes me want to go blonde and get tattoos. :)


Other 'dos I'm digging:

So many of these are curly messy beauties....sigh, why is curling hair so time consuming?

Updated Mary Janes

So, I'm really digging the double/triple strapped Mary Janes out lately....


First ran across these on Annabel's Chic blog but...these could make ANY outfit...


Payless just added these. I think they're adorable, but I am really not digging the color! I still kind of want to go and see them in person. Especially since its BOGO right now (gotta love that!)


Steve Madden adding a peep toe into the equation...

Pastel Perfect!
These are the ones I'd go for...




And everyone's favorite, Pandora, rocking the look:

Katy Perry

So, whats not to love about Katy Perry? She's cute, has good style, and is pretty much twins with Zoey Deschanel. And we all know how gorgeous she is/dresses...

Some Katy....

Cute work clothes?!

I'm really trying to wear cuter clothes to work. Because I'm motivated by looking cute! Plus, I am tired of the boring combination of button up shirts and slacks. Thats just easy and over-done. So I bought this dress at Old Navy with plans that it could be a work dress or an evening dress. I can fold pull a little fabric over the belt and shorten the hem for later. GeniusDress: Old Navy
Cardigan: Gap
Shoes: Payless
Belt: Off a shirt


Then after work I went over to Target (I work across the street from it!) and checked out the new GO line. Not very impressive. This was the only thing I thought might be cute:

But the material was weird and I don't even really like it on. So, boo. No cool new Target clothes for me. I need to watch my spending anyways...

I want to get married

I was a bridesmaid today!
