Day 5 - Happy Happy Weekend

February 5th, 2011

sweater and boots: Forever21, shirt: Gap via Buffalo Exchange, pants: Urban Outfitters, necklace: gift from my mommy

30 for 30 remix- day 5: Not much to say today- just having a relaxing saturday. So I’m going to get back to sitting on the couch with my bag of chips and a movie. Hope everyone is having a happy weekend!!

Oh yeah, these are the type of moments Boo managed to capture today. Just thought I would share one…..

Day 4 - Date Night

January 4th, 2011

dress: Forever21, sweater: Anthropologie, socks: Express, wedges: Christian Louboutin, flower bracelet: Janet Rhodes, amber bracelet: Vintage (grandma’s)

30 for 30 remix-day 4: Yaaaaaay I’m outside. Thank god - I really hate taking indoor pictures. The lighting is terrible. Not that this is the absolute best either. I got all the way to the park only to see that none of the paths were cleared. Except for one. But that one was both a sheet of ice and really shadow-y. But I walked all the way there and, gosh darn-it, I was going to take the photos there. 

I’ve also played around with the look of the photos today too. Something a tad different than as of late. I can’t help it - photoshop is too much fun. I love playing around with all the different effects. 

So tonight is Friday night date night. Wohoo! So thats what I’m all dressed up for. I don’t usually wear this dress as is because it is suuuuper short. I usually wear a skirt over or under it. But hey, I thought I’d give it a go. At least I’m wearing tights, so my bum would’nt be completely exposed. 

I hope. 

Day 3 - Dots + Stripes and Black + White

January 3rd, 2011

tee: Urban Outfitters, cardigan and tights: Express, skirt: American Apparel, boots: Forever21

30 for 30 remix, day 3: I really miss taking pretty outdoor shots. The snow and rain have stopped, but it is still too icy for me to walk very far with my tripod. Ice + me = not a very good combination. I’m clumsy enough as it is. 

I was originally going to go all black and white with this outfit. But I figured it wouldn’t be very me without some color. So I’m glad I did it. I’ve also been crazy for polka dots lately. I’ve been eyeing a certain polka dot skirt (for after the  30 for 30, of course), and on my last trip to the fabric store I purchased 2 different polka dot fabrics. I seriously can’t get enough of it right now. And yes, I am wearing the same socks as yesterday. I mean, they were over tights both days, so its not that gross….  right?

Day 2 - Surprise!

February 2nd, 2011

tee: Urban Outfitters, skirt: Anthropologie, scarf: NYC street vendor, tights: Express, pin: Vintage (my mommy’s), boots: Vince Camuto

30 for 30 remix, day 2: Oh, snow. You really need to stop now. I think we have plenty of you. We are kinda running out of places to put you. BUT, at least Boo had a snow day today - so I had a photographer. Yaaaay. 

SO….. guess what?! We just found out that in two weeks we will be going to Orlando for a week! Yes, in the middle of the winter I will be heading to Florida. Fortunately, a good number of my items can eaaaasily work for warmer weather (thank you, me, for picking shorts as part of a winter remix). The only switch-er-roo I’m making is in the shoes. I’m going to forget the oxfords:

and add a pair of sandals:

So yeah, this remix just became a wee bit harder. But hey, challenge accepted. A little weather change can’t scare me! Harry Potter World, here I come…..

Day 1- Shorts and Snow Storms

-

February 1st, 2011

sweater: Gap via Buffalo Exchange, shirt: Zara via Buffalo Exchange, shorts: JCrew, tights: Anthropologie, boots: Forever21, necklace: by me!-  HollyDoll

The snow is coming down pretty good right now, and its a bit much for this little girl and her tripod. So indoor pictures it is. Hopefully I can get out to get some good winter wonderland photos sometime this week. 

But anyway… here we go! The challenge begins. I’m actually pretty excited for this 30 for 30. I think I’m kicking it off pretty well. What do you think? I went for it pretty good on the first day with a little plaid, floral, and leopard mixing. And shorts on the first day of the big snow storm? Eh, why not :) 

30 for 30 Winter Challenge Items

8 tops

1 blazer, 5 sweaters

2 dresses

8 bottoms (2 pants, 1 pair of shorts, 5 skirts)

6 pairs of shoes (2 boots, 2 flats, 2 heels)

See those little babies I so cleverly photoshopped in all the way to the right? They should be coming in the mail by the end of the week. I’m so excited!

I’m not going to do another outfit post before the 30 for 30 starts Tuesday. I’ve been way too comfortable hanging out and working in my sweatpants. But I’ll have another shop update tomorrow, and then tuesday the challenge begins!
