WIWT: Flowers in her hair...

Well, I made good on yesterday's promise to stick some cherry blossoms in my hair.
Flowers              Blurry

No, I'm not channeling my inner Lana Del Rey...

LMAO

I'm trying to make myself feel better and more Spring-y to take the focus off of the Sahara Desert that is currently residing in my chest.  It feels so dry and full of sand and it's making me completely miserable!  Not to worry - I've also been distracting myself with my pretty necklaces.
Necklaces

I took a cue from last night's Project Runway All-Stars and decided I would layer some fancy looking necklaces to exude the "rich girl" vibe.  The necklace with the red heart, black chain and black cabochon with the bow in the center is a 3 tiered Betsey Johnson necklace my Mom gave me for Christmas - which I LOVE.  The gold Y-necklace with the humungous crystal in the middle is a...wait for it..."Official" replica from The Twilight Saga: Breaking Dawn movie.  I'm guessing it's from Part 2 since I didn't see it at all during Part 1 and I made it a point to wear it to Part 1 because I thought I'd be seeing it then.  Once you get over the fact that it's Twilight-related you have to admit that it's pretty badass, right? YES!
Everyone at work loves the flowers and the necklaces today!

I also decided to wear my favourite "fashionista" wedges (that were a total impulse buy). 

I got them because I really liked the design, they were on sale and they are a little outside the box for my personal style.  And because of that last bullet point, I have a hard time styling them.  Today's outfit was fun though!  Heather was giving me major shoe envy with her sky high heels today!

Don't let this photo fool you! They look shorter than they actually are. These puppies are super high!  Almost as high as my sliver heels, if not the same height!  I wish I could comfortably wear those to work.  LOL.  I don't think anyone would believe they were mine!

This post was really an excuse to use the new Blanko Freedom 13 film that Hipstamatic came out with today.  I had already downloaded the Americana lens last week with their Free Pak but I have to say that I enjoy the Freedom 13 film with the Tejas lens a little more.  This weekend will give me some good opportunities to experiment (I hope!).

Do you have any special, fun plans this weekend?

What I Wore Today: Mondo Style

In honour of Project Runway All-Stars being on tonight, guess what special package arrived for me?
Look what came in time for tomorrow!!

Does that bowtie look familiar???  How about the silhouette?


That's right - it's a Mondo Guerra sugar skull shirt!!  I had ordered it last week and was looking forward to it arriving last Thursday but I accidentally had it sent to my Mom's house (it's a habit) and she told me about it today.  Either way - IT'S HERE NOW!!

I'm not one for "What I Wore Today" posts but I had to do one today since...well...you know... So here it is - my first "official" What I Wore Today post...


I'm keeping it basic with jeans and my Mondo shirt.  Originally I had planned on something bigger and better for this outfit but we can't wear shorts to work so...dark blue denim it is!  My galaxy nails are holding up pretty nicely as well.  This is also the third time I'm wearing my hot pink chucks.
"New" Chucks

I mean, they're totally appropriate right? And I was *trying* to channel my inner Mondo to make good on my promise:


So...here's my first "official" attempt at a Mondo bouffant:


With my inspiration photo as my phone background, I think I'm off to a good start BUT I will try harder. This was like one of my regular bang sweeps but I did tease a little base and I hair sprayed it to itself (which I'll probably regret during my workout later).  Not too bad for an impromptu bouffant!
I've also been looking for an excuse to buy purple (or any colour jeans, really...)

And I think my Mondo tee is my in! Honestly, I think I'd only wear the purple jeans with the Mondo tee but I could expand on my colourful pants wardrobe and buy accordingly? Who knows! The possibilities are endless!
Maybe I can put something together for a certain PR All-Star's viewing party - after he gets auf'd so it won't be weird...

ANYWAYS - I hope to take my original outfit idea for this shirt out and about sometime soon. Until then, join us TONIGHT for Project Runway All-Stars live-blogging fun!
