Funny Face

Have you ever seen the movie, Funny Face?  It's one of my favorite Audrey Hepburn movies.  She's so iconic in it and there is dancing and I just love it.  Fred Astaire says she has a funny face (got it?  Haha) and that's how I feel in these pictures.  We went to go take these pictures and this was stuck in our door:

I had a minor panic.  What?! WHY?!  I'm a decent human being!  I don't want to have to deal with the sheriff's office ever!  What is wrong?!

I was freaking out.  Boyfriend, not so much.  He was like, "it's whatever".

Flash forward five minutes and the Important to You person was named NOT my name (or boyfriend's).  Turns out it was for someone who lived in our apartment before.  Oops!

Clearly, I work well under pressure and don't jump to conclusions :\

Goodbye Pastels

I've hit it.  I've finally reached acceptance with the impending fall season.  But with this acceptance, I had to wear my favorite summer work outfit one last time.  This navy dress is a glove.  The pastel green blazer is so fun, and I love wearing this pink necklace always (boyfriend choice again).

While I'm excited for fall boots, big sweaters, hot chais, and football, I'm sad that this blazer will go back into my closet until I'm 26.  UGH.  Now I'm depressed.

Office Toga Party

When I saw this dress on ModCloth's website, I knew it was perfect for my work life.  I love dresses that drape like togas, the whole Grecian look, but that's not always the best dress to wear at the work place.  This takes the scandal away while still giving me the look I love.  Plus it's super comfy.

Pep-y Business

I love this jacket - it's warm and fits well, so I don't have to think much about what I wear underneath.  And I love that it does all the talking.  No worry business professional.  Which worked out well, since I didn't put too much effort into this outfit and ended up going to a talk with the First Lady of Pennsylvania.  NBD.  

The Dress You Should Have Seen Months Ago

| Dress - Banana Republic | Shoes - Old Navy | Similar | Bangles - Alex & Ani | Similar | 

I got this dress months and months ago and yet here I am... showing it to you now.  I know.  I'm awful.  The texture is almost like a burlap and there are very tiny flecks of gold thread woven in giving it a tiny shimmer.  It's love.  I feel crazy professional in it which makes it like a power dress.  What's not to love?

Also: I finally got black suede pumps like Princess Kate, and I must say, I know exactly why they're a go-to.

21st Century Betsy Ross

I don't know why I loved this skirt when I found it, but I would put bets on because it's red, white, and blue.  Patriotic and my favorite color combo?  Done.  It's like, running for office?  Sign me up to be your companion because I'm looking the part, yo!  It also makes the white button down a LOT more fun.

However, the paneling on the side really accentuates my stomach... so I kinda look preggers (nooooooo I'm not, don't even try to start that rumor!)
