If I could of worn anything in the world …

there i go again, pairing patterns with patterns. i cant help it! when i was younger i never really got how to wear those long dresses, but who says i cant throw a shirt on top of it? i would belt the shirt to the dress with the vintage Chanel belt which i think makes this the most expensive outfit i have put together yet. the grand total for this outfit is $2770. i bought a car for that price once! you know what they say .. it cost a lot of money to look this cheap.

Week #10! being too cute in tom sawyers tree house. Deb, Me, Jenny, Lauren A. and Lauren J. spent Too Cute Tuesday fighting crowds at Disneyland.

another tuesday spent at disneyland. i love having hook ups.

thank you Lauren J. for bein' ma fraaaand.

beyond awesome.

this is it. yea i know kinda boring. its been so rainy here in southern california that its hard to want to get dressed up because i know i will end up soaking anyway. there is actually a funny story with this outfit. i took my 11 year old cousin to soccer practice and half way to walking her to her field she said ” you can stop here.” i responded with a surprised “why?” and she says bluntly .. “because of your outfit” (you have to understand that she has been raised in orange county her whole life and choses to wear A&F with uggs. im trying my hardest to show her there is so much more out there) yea thats my family. im the odd one out always.

happy irish appreciation day!

If I could of worn anything in the world ..

i think i need to go to PAA (pattern addiction anonymous) JUST KITTEN (sound it out in your head .. it will make sense) long maxi dresses are in this season so of course wanting to stay fashion forward, (i could really care less how “in season” i am to be quite honest) chose this lovely number from modcloth. pairing it with other random finds like these super cool earrings from etsy and this amazing little ring from Golden Ink. and of course the shoes .. jeffrey campbells. i just really want a pair. im obsessed. maybe after my PAA class i can find one for jeffery campbell addiction.

there is a kid at my school who drives this really cool bus. going to an art school makes for an interesting parking lot.

week #9 im missing the other half of my lauren sandwich! :(

What I Wore ..

i guess you could call what im wearing overalls? pants suit? not really sure what to call it but i wore it anyways. not the easiest thing to wear when you are as big of a water drinker like i am. every time i went to pee i always pictured someone accidentally walking in on me and me sitting there in my bra. scary right? i know. my mom actually bought this little get up for me about a year ago and i had been battling where to wear it, what shoes to wear with it, or the big question .. how to wear it. it came with a belt that was the same color as the outfit itself but i opted with a black belt instead to match with my shoes and also to break it up a little. the cool thing about this is when ever your pants are falling down you just have to shrug your shoulders and tada! pants are back in place.

If Lauren J. was my own personal life size barbie …

so lauren likes to say she doesnt have style but obviously the girl does, i mean come on just look at her! i love her girly yet earthy and almost rugged style, i think its from growing up in utah. anyways if i could dress her (which she has let me do before and even looking back on it now still makes me a bit giddy) this is what i would put her in. i think this is very “her”. girly and earthy but not too earthy to the point where she is a hippie child. so lets break this outfit down so you all know why i picked what i did. first off lauren loves pearls and i really dig colored pearls so when you add those two things together you get that really cool colored pearl necklace. another thing about lauren is she has the prettiest dainty little fingers so i picked out small organic rings to compliment that. i chose this dress because i think the color compliments her skin and hair and to be honest i like her in a dress. she has one of those odd shaped bodies where her clothes drape on her kinda like a model. i like to call it a “willowy” body type because the clothes almost flow off the lines of her body like willow branches. (im pretty jealous of it actually) she could wear this outfit pretty much anywhere because it is dressy yet casual but if i had to pick where she was going i would say on a date with her cute little boy friend she refers to as Mr. Man.

i really love the fact that i took this in late February. thanks california for being so beautiful all year round.

i cant believe we have been doing this now for 8 weeks. GO US!

by the way i have been thinking about making it where more people can join in on the fun that is Too Cute Tuesday .. if i did would you participate?

LETS START A TOO CUTE TUESDAY REVOLUTION!

What Miss Lauren J. Wore ..

Oooooooh Hello little lovies of the world wide web! It is I, Lauren, one of them at least and I am please to meet all of you. And here I am writing to all of you about my little outfit of the day and you get to find out how interesting I am. Ha ha okay not really. Anyways let’s just start out by saying, I am not that fashionable whatsoever so this is quite hard for me! I feel like every girl has a moment where you look at your closet FILLED with clothes and say to yourself, “I have nothing to wear.” Well that’s what happened to me recently and one, I have no money to buy more; and two, it was quite ridiculous that I didn’t have anything to wear. So I told myself, “ya know, maybe I could piece things together differently.” So lately I have been experimenting, and this was one of the concoctions I came up with. By the way I am loving belts these days, seriously can make every outfit look that much put together. Anyways, my advice….mix it up my little lovies and if you question it, just wear it! You’ll learn to love it and love all the “NEW” outfits you have in your closet.

In the Open #1.3: Young the Giant - Apartment from In the Open on Vimeo.

good, simple music.

really loving my new OPI nail polish.

new colors recently purchased:
panda-monium pink (the color i have on now and i think my favorite out of the bunch)
malaysian mist (love it because its almost the color of my skin. yea im kinda pink right now due to lack of color)
you dont know jacques (i like that it looks brown and purple at the same time! better than boring black. looks the color of a mud mask.)

seeing how i have ridiculously long death like fingers i never really wear nail polish but after my recent opi polish hunt with one of the laurens, i think i might change my ways.
