Pinspired

2014-09-27 No Comments

I’ve seen a bunch of bloggers do these posts and always liked them but never actually tried them. So no time like the present right? If I can I may make this a recurring series on the dear old blog. I actually saw the skirt I’m wearing on ASOS before I ever saw the inspiration picture on pinterest and as soon as I saw It I knew I had to get it. All the stars seemed to aline in my favor as I got an ASOS voucher as a gift around the same time. I love the easy yet chic look in the inspiration look and decided to go for that this time around. I switched out the turtle neck for my scoop neck crop top since i’m not a big fan of turtlenecks and I wore this outfit in the summer when turtlenecks were out of the question. I wore this skirt a bunch this summer although I’m not sure if I’ll be transitioning this skirt to fall ( it’s more of a spring/summer look to me), but we’ll see maybe some fall/winter inspiration for this skirt will hit me.

1. Georges Briard coffee pot I spotted this coffee pot at Arc’s Value village and immediately picked it up. It’s in the Ambrosia pattern which isn’t the most sought after of Georges Briard’s work but is still really cool. And the fact that it’s not super expensive on the ebays means it’s ripe for the […]

Crop Top: ASOS || Dress (worn as skirt): thrifted (originally Kardashian Kollection) || Shoes: Target This outfit was pretty much my go-to last summer and it’s been in pretty heavy rotation this year too. It’s a cute easy outfit, it’s pretty perfect. I’ve worn this a million times but most recently I wore it […]

Don’t adjust your eyes people that is indeed a table with shapely women’s legs for legs. Yeah… For a cool $300.00, this table could have been mine. Sadly I have taste. Although there were some people checking it out. It’s almost so bad it’s good. I’m really not sure if I should be offended by […]
