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.

If Lauren Ashley was my own personal life size barbie …

this was fun. challenging but fun. of course i thought her original outfit was adorable, or else i wouldn’t post it but if i could play dress up with her this is what i would put her in. miss ashley is a black wear-er. 6 out of the 7 days she looks like she is in mourning (which doesnt match her personality in the least bit) so what i would of put her in is colorful/earthy tones. she is pretty short so she can get away with super short dresses where as if i were to wear it i would look like im missing pants. this girl is also an accessory-aholic. she loves loading up with bracelets and rings so i tried to fit as many as i could on this little sucker. although it might be a bit different to see her rocking her inner chic hippy with this down to earth look, she is the girl who can pull anything off because she has confidence. which is the most important garment in a wardrobe.

so i have decided to start each month with a guest blogger for the “what i wore” post. i was going to do it at the end of the month but seeing how i started in a week late this year and im ocd, ill stick the guest blogger at the front of the month. makes more sense. well at least to me.

What Lauren wore ..

Hi, my name is Lauren and i run this little blog right here and this is what i wore. I normally wear all black. It is very flattering and that way I can accessorize the crap out of my outfit. Although this week for Too Cute Tuesday I allowed for a bit of spice (color) in my life. I chose to pair my pastel pink hot shorts with an off the shoulder striped sweater. And of course keeping with my accessory junkie ways I added bangles, lots of rings, a sweet skull necklace, my handy dandy timepiece and topping it off with lil’ pink studs. Adding a fun mix to it were my spectacular floral print heels. While shooting this we had a lil’ too much fun, which explains my awesomely awkward pose. But that’s me in a nutshell.
