Outfit of the Day: Spring Backlog of Outfits

I've been taking a bit of a break from blogging


While I've slowly been working on my backlog of reading all the great posts I've missed from all the wonderful bloggers I follow, I thought I should also start working on catching up with posting some Outfits of the Days from a few weeks ago.


Sunday:

A few weeks ago on a Sunday Tim and I went out for some errands. I think we went out for breakfast, a stop to Target, a quick stop at Ace Hardware and a stop at Home Depot. It wasn't the most glamorous day but I definitely felt glamorous all day in my Trashy Diva Trixie dress in Hurricane Ladies print! This is one of my favorite dresses that I own and one that is very close to my heart as it was actually gifted to me by an amazing person! To really play off the pink colors I paired this with a vintage beaded pink cardigan which I got from Etsy a couple years ago, and a pair of pink and cream Ione t-strap kitten heels by B.A.I.T. which I got from Amazon a couple years ago. For a finishing touch I wore this with a black Hell Bunny cinch belt, a pink beret I got from ebay last year, and a pair of pink circle earrings adorn with bows which I got from Forever 21 some years ago.

 Saturday:

A couple weeks ago Tim and I went for a walk around a nearby lake. We went to somewhat nearby Fremont for a walk around Lake Elizabeth, we then went to the mall, and then out to dinner at Red Lobster. I decided this day was the perfect opportunity to wear my Trashy Diva Apple Tart dress in Seersucker. I paired this with a red cardigan I got several years ago from Nordstrom Rack, and a pair of red Vans which Tim bought me as a gift about a year ago. For a finishing touch I paired this with a pair of apple stud earrings I got from Modcloth about two years ago.

Sunday:

That following Sunday it was a hot day. We decided to go to Dave and Busters to have fun and play in the arcade. Seeing as I recently wore my Hurricane Ladies dress I decided to stick to a theme and wear another one of my favorite dresses, my Trashy Diva Country Club dress in Butterflies! This dress was the Desperately Seeking dress that ended all desperately seeking dresses for me. While I still have dresses on my wishlist, after acquiring all the dresses I felt I was most desperately seeking including the Hurricane ladies print and this Butterflies print, I decided to refrain from ever elevating a dress to quite the level of desperately seeking as I had elevated these ones. After all, I have been so lucky in finding all the dresses I was most desperately seeking so I figured it was only right to step back and if I get lucky and find a dress on my wishlist for a decent price and if I was lucky enough to be at the right place at the right time, I would consider them wonderful little bonuses.

I got this dress back in October and have patiently been waiting for some hot weather to finally get to wear it out! I fully plan on living in this dress this summer!

The day before I had hurt my feet walking around the lake in my red Vans... Wearing shoes that haven't been fully broken in yet and without socks is definitely not a good idea. So what did I do the very next day? Wear shoes that haven't been fully broken in yet with socks. Okay, still not the best idea. And in hindsight my feet probably would have fared better in my usual broken in flats and my outfit probably would have looked better too. Oh well. I couldn't resist wearing my cat printed Vans with this butterfly printed dress. It was too fun a combo. For a finishing touch I paired this outfit with a yellow hair flower I got from Cats Like Us a couple years ago, a pair of golden bronze flower stud earrings I got from Forever 21 a couple years ago, and a new pair of sunglasses I got from Trashy Diva. I love how the bees and brown in the sunglasses seem to scream a perfect match with this butterfly print dress!
