testing..testing

hmmm. thinking bout bringing back the blog.
this time trying to incorporate dressing as a professional!

I'm a little more country than that

Stagecoach 2010

i went to a country fest with my brothers in indio. this take place the weekend after Coachella and having gone twice to coachella i knew that it was going to be blazing hot during the day.

i always like to dress according to the weather so that i know i am going to be comfortable and cute!

i had it stuck in my head that i wanted to wear a dress, i thought it was very country. I found this one at target and purchased it as my stagecoach dress.

When we were getting ready that morning i kept trying to see if i was really going to be ok in a dress ALL day. I sat on the floor, tried bending over (you never know what you will have to do at a country fest) and decided I would be much more comfy if I wore my "she cuts" under the dress. After a quick approval from chaunce that it all looked good. I was good to go.

Now i know you saw "she cuts" and thought "what are those". They are probably one of my favorite purchases I have made. I bought them to wear to coachella the first time and then wore them when i went for the second time and now they have become the go to festival outfit. I believe we started calling them she cuts because Lindsey took a pair of jeans and cut them herself into shorts and I said, "ya she cut them" and now we refer to shorts that look like they were once jeans "she cuts". If that is not the story you remember please help me!

In the end I was very happy with my stagecoach outfit. We did see about 5 other girls in the same dress but I guess you should expect that when you buy something from Target.

I leave you with me as a true cowgirl, wearing lisa's country hat.

Comes ang Goes (in waves)

Hipster or Homeless?

This is a fun game that I love to play. Where do I play it? Anywhere, people watching on Melrose or in my own living room.

After not seeing brother for a week she comes over in this outfit and I clearly had to ask if she was a hipster or homeless.

The hipster elements to her outfit were the Toms and the panda beanie. The sweater could be hipster if not paired with those pants. The combo made her straight homeless. Yes, she was only wearing this outfit to come over for dinner but I still had to judge, cause that's what I do.

Now when Lisa wore the Panda hat with a regular cute outfit it was totes hipster and acceptable at Tiki Ti. She fit right in.

I challenge all of you to play hipster or homeless next time you are out and tell me how much fun it was.

Going to the Chapel...

...no not me. brother went to the chapel.

As much as people thought it was my wedding..my beautiful brother got married on March 27 and I was the maid of honor.

I think one of the most important duties of the maid of honor is picking out the bridal party dresses. that is if the bride allows you to and luckily my bro was not an uber crazy bride and was pretty relaxed when it came to this...of course I wanted to go with Jcrew and the color that we went with was oh so pretty.

as much as i looked forward to finding THE dress it was quite the process to get us to THE wedding day.

The dress you see here was not the first dress I bought. it was the second but had to go through some alterations to be the perfect dress, so that I looked almost as pretty as the bride.

i am so happy with the final outcome. If it weren't for an amazing dinner two nights before with the "a-list" where i stated i wanted to be a "hipster maid of honor". how was this going to get accomplished? we weren't quite sure how we were going to do my hair so the decision was made to add a headband and go from there. BEST DECISION EVER. the hair was perfect the dress w/ the straps all came together and i think i pulled it off.

it has been two weeks since the wedding but i don't want to stop talking about..so here it can live on a little longer.

Backstreets Back...Alright!

April 9th

It seems like a couple fellow bloggers and myself had taken a hiatus from posting and now we are all back.

I'm going go take it back to a fab weekend I spent in SD w/ Jules. this outfit just screams HIPSTER in Training!

It consists of flat boots, blazer and hipster scarf. The sun shades and over the shoulder purse also add to the outfit.

This just happened to be the perfect outfit to go see An Education. I felt like i was in Europe. this was the day that inspired my bangs. THE best day.

Ok so I'm just getting back in the groove..few more posts to come to catch me up to present time.

S.O.S.

March 9

Due to recent incidents in my oh so dramatic life, I have not felt the need to get up and pick a cute outfit. I don't think you can even call what I am wearing today an outfit, it is just something to wear so I am not in sweats. I do believe I look more homeless than a hipster today. I would not dare post a picture of today's outfit so I put one from Sunday where my head looks uber hipster.

I have not been blogging due to the lack of inspiration to be cute and care about my outfit but then I read Chelsea's post and that was the motivation I needed to blog again.

I'm hoping my new determination to get fit will inspire me to be the fashionista I desire to be. I took my first class at Pop Physique today with Chell Bell and I also signed up for 6 pilates classes . With both of these making my body lean and long clothes should just look AMAZING on me!

Hopefully I will have some more hipster outfits to post soon.

Papa...Papa..Paparazzi

March 3.

I want to be famous!

I don't only get my hand me downs for Lindsey, I'd say I have been wearing clothes that belonged to Rachelle for many many years!

When this girl cleans out her closet you want to be the first person in line! Behind me that is!

Here I am wearing one of her tops that as you can see she used to wear and this shirt is FAMOUS!

If you become a fan of Rachelle Wood on facebook (plug) you can see many photos of her working and wearing clothes that I know can call mine!

I hope to run into David Spade wearing this shirt and he mistakes me for Rachelle, I would not correct him!
