Layers

This "hot pink" Jean Paul Gaultier for Target slip dress has been hanging out in my closet for a while now, but after layering on top this little black sheer lace over~dress from F21, it felt brand new!

fabulous fiction

A good friend gave me a copy of Sara Gruen's Water for Elephants for Christmas. 
I'm thoroughly enjoying the musings of the aging protagonist Jacob, as in many ways they mirror my own father's coming-to-terms with growing old.

This dress and knit sweater vest were fun finds at Forever 21,  paired with knee highs and Hunter Booties

Romance day & night

 I chose ruffles for day and lace for evening to create these two feminine looks!

Jacket & shoes are BCBG Max Azria, Vintage hat, a necklace I made, paired with a lace tee, linen shorts and nude fishnets complete this feminine day look!

A soft pink lace bodysuit I found at forever 21, inspired this outfit, I added thigh high tights, took a knit shawl and pinned it on as a skirt, added a Ralph Lauren Hat and satin mary jane's for my evening look!
