I love relaxed summer days because I can literally do whatever I want. I sleep in, have waffles at 11AM, get dressed, and proceed to turn into an internet and movie addict for the rest of day. I hope that you are doing at least a little bit of time wasting during your vacation too! Somewhat unfortunately, school is coming up again and so my loose schedule is about to change very drastically. I’m sure that all of those students out there in the world are feeling the same way: dreading the first day of the end of summer vacation. Do me a favor, do something somewhat stupid before you have to be responsible again. It’ll do you some good.
Waffles for breakfast…YUMMY and oh so filling. Are you liking my breakfast pictures? I figured that it would remind some people to enjoy their breakfast and not just hork it down every morning.
Today the weather was quite odd in Utah because it was hot, as always, but it was also dark and cloudy like it was going to rain, which it sort of did. I decided to add an oversized open crochet sweater on top of a summery, animal print dress in honor of the inevitable summer to fall transition.
Sweater: Old Navy / Dress: F21 / Shoes: F21 / Sunnies: Buffalo Exchange / Necklace: Indigenous tribe in Iquitos, Peru / Socks: H&M / Lipstick: L’Oreal
This necklace was handmade by a few indigenous jungle folk in Iquitos, Peru (No, I wasn’t kidding). My family is posted in Lima, Peru and some of my family and I were able to go to the jungle last December while I was home from college. At one of the rustic tourist locations along the Amazon River, there was a group of people of all ages that showed us one of their native dances, taught us how to shoot at targets by blowing into long tubes, and invited us to buy some of their artisan work. They had a ton of awesome jewelry, but this piece really stood out for me. Also, I knew that the small proceeds would go towards helping out this tribe, which was something that I was happy to support.
I really love how this look is casual but still sophisticated.
Have a sweater that is literally too massive to wear? Tie it up around your waist so the fabric doesn’t swallow your figure!
These sunnies have wacky frames that remind me of Willy Wonka, but become more classy and vintage with the tortoise finish, which by the way is a massive trend.
I am loving these lacey socks (: They remind me of something that my mom would’ve put me in when I was little.

I’ve got another puzzle for you
Oompa loompa doompadee dee
If you are wise you’ll listen to me!”

Dress: WalMart / Cardi: Kohl’s / Tights: Target / Wedges: Old Navy / Socks: H&M
Recognize me without my glasses? Ahh to get lasik…one day.
Wonder why this little get-up is first for the month? Well, it’s red and it’s February…pretty sure you can figure this one out. You’re smart.
I’d say that this has become one of my signature outfits. Dress, tights and wedges. You get to hide your during-the-winter-hairy-legs without simply resorting to jeans and a tee AND still be girly with a dress and wedges during the winter. BAM.
Platform booties: F21 (New, but recently returned shoes. Wasn’t feeling them)
…but its a problem.
