Outfit of the Day:

I was so happy to finally get to wear this Dogwood printed skirt out and I was especially glad too that it made its way out of my closet before the official end of Spring back in June. I wore this outfit for some double birthday fun celebrating both my husband's birthday and his friend's kid's birthday. (You can see my full review of the Dogwood separates here)

Outfit of the Day: Springing Forward

Last weekend we sprang forward in more ways than just the change in daylight savings time


Suddenly, the weather went from the midst of winter into full blown summer! The sun was shining and boy was it WARM! I couldn't help but get out some separates and dress for the occasion. 


Outfit of the Day (Saturday):

I've been taking sailing lessons through a local sailing club which I've been going to on as many Saturdays as I can manage. Unfortunately, we aren't allowed to bring cell phones or cameras on the boat (and for good reason as distractions would be bad-- not to mention water on the electronics would also be bad if we capsize). I'd imagine, the pics probably wouldn't be too blog friendly anyhow as we are geared up in wetsuits and foulies anyhow. But in any case, that's what I've been up to and so my Saturday activities otherwise have been limited. After my sailing lesson Tim and I did get out and about a bit to do some errands which granted me the opportunity to dress as I please. Seeing as the weather was so great I decided to wear my Trashy Diva Louise blouse in Crepe Myrtle and my Trashy Diva Circle skirt in chambray. Keeping it simple, I wore this with some basic black flats and off we went to the hardware store, Target, and to pick up dinner.

Outfit of the Day (Sunday):

On Sunday Tim and I went to a bbq celebrating several friends' birthdays. The party was going to be right on the water so Tim wanted to bring his jet ski for everyone to play with. The plan was to take the jet ski out to a nearby estuary where we could launch it and then ride it over to where the party was going to be. As fun as it was I did have to tweak my outfit a bit to make it jet ski riding friendly. And so for this day, I decided to wear some high waisted capri jeans by a brand called Fervour which I got from Modcloth several years ago, paired with a sailor tie top by Tatyana which I also got a couple years ago. To keep warm I wore this with a navy and white polka dot cardigan by Croft and Barrow from Kohl's from a couple years ago. For a finishing touch I wore this with a red belt which I took from one of my Hell Bunny dresses, and while I pictured this outfit here with my red Vans I actually just ended up wearing my flip flops all day.

And just like that, the winter is starting to rear it's head again as the overcast grey clouds dominate the days during the second half of this week. I know soon though it will be spring again. I'm so looking forward to the warm weather to come back again!

Outfit of the Day: Final Weekends in August

I'm always just a little delayed posting my Outfit of the Days


It maybe the first weekend of September now but here are three Outfits of the Day from the last two weekends in August. Saying goodbye to August would be a lot more bittersweet if we weren't moving into my all time favorite season, Autumn!

Anyhow, here we go!










Outfit of the Day (last last Saturday):

The weekend before last weekend my friends and I spent a day at the beach. It was a cooler day at the beach but it was nice to be out in the sun and spending time chatting it up with my friends.

For this day's occasion I wore my Trashy Diva Chambray Circle skirt, a yellow Gap gingham top I found on ebay a few months ago, red Ecco flats also from ebay from several months ago, and a red cardigan I got from Nordstrom Rack several years ago. For a finishing touch I wore red floral studs from Forever 21 several years ago, an oversized sun hat (my biggest hat ever) which I got from Trashy Diva earlier this summer, and a watermelon shaped straw purse which I got from ebay a couple weeks ago.

Outfit of the Day (last last Sunday): 

The next day, on Sunday I spent the day out and about with my husband. We were planning on going to the local zucchini festival in town but when we got there decided against it and instead decided to check out the Marina in nearby San Leandro. The marina is a nice nature area with a huge park adjacent to it. There were lots of people out walking the trails, playing in the parks, and catching some pokemon. It was a fun day. I didn't get any pics while we were out there but I'm sure we will be going back again!

For this day's activities I wore a Bettie Page/Tatyana circle skirt jumper in green paired with a Trashy Diva Louise blouse in Crepe Myrtle. I wore this with a pair of basic black flats. For a finishing touch I wore a boater hat I got from Nordstrom last year.

Outfit of the Day (last Sunday):

Last Sunday my husband and I decided to go out for a bit to one of our favorite nearby towns, Alameda, to play indoor golf and then play at the 80's arcade. It was fun to check out this new to us indoor golf place and it was also fun changing venues a bit and going to the 80's arcade in Alameda after spending lots of time playing at the newly opened 80's arcade in our town. 

As I had mentioned in one of my earlier posts, Outfit of the Day: 1987, I have really been in the mood for 80's style. Lately it's been more like 80's everything... 80's music, 80's movies, 80's arcades, and 80's style! This outfit was my fun take on a 2010's version of 80's does 50's. ;) 

I got this fun pastel striped skirt, the Aspiration Creation Skirt, from Modcloth a few weeks ago. It is one of their own branded items. I paired this skirt with the Enchanting Epilogue Sleep top (also from Modcloth from a few weeks ago). When I bought the top I was just kind of adding it into my basket because it was on sale and by adding it to my basket I actually saved more than I would spend on it with a coupon code I had. But when it arrived with the skirt I realized that they matched each other pretty well so figured why not wear it as a day top? I also wore a Gap jean jacket I got at Buffalo Exchange several years ago and a pair of B.A.I.T. Dolly Sandals in Fair Pink which I got a few weeks ago from Zulily. For a finishing touch I also wore my new Erstwilder God of Time brooch, a pair of turquoise heart studs from Forever 21 from several years ago, a Coach shoulder strap purse I got from my mother-in-law for Christmas several years ago, red heart shaped sunglasses my husband bought for me from Vans a couple months ago, and a pink scrunchie I picked up from a local shop recently.

Outfit of the Day: More Spring Backlog of Outfits

I'm more or less now catching up with my backlog of Outfits of the Day posts



Saturday (last last week):

Still reeling from the loss of B.K. the week before last I decided to wear this super colorful outfit to help pep me up. I had a friend whose favorite saying was, "look good, feel good" and though I was still sad, it did make me feel better to go out in my Trashy Diva Turquoise Floral Louise blouse and Trashy Diva chambray circle skirt, even if it was just to Panera Bread to pick up bagels for breakfast. I paired this with a pair of nude flats with sparkly bows by Pazzo which I got from DSW years ago but somehow never managed to wear them until this day! For a finishing touch I also wore a pair of pink floral stud earrings which I got from Forever 21 a couple years ago.

Saturday:

Last Saturday was Tim's birthday. We went out to his favorite local sushi place, we walked around our downtown area a bit, and then I took him out to see the new X-Men movie followed by birthday ice cream! The weather was perfect! Warm/verging on hot and towards the evening perfectly warm/slightly cool enough to chose to or not to wear a cardigan. Since I've been wearing some of the dresses that I most love lately I decided to finally take this dress out for a spin--my Trashy Diva Sweetie dress in Pearl Harbor! I love this one so much I've been slightly hesitant to wear it for the first time. But what better occasion than the hubby's birthday to wear one of my most loved dresses? To not distract from the gorgeousness of this print, I paired this dress with a pair of nude flats by Easy Spirit which I got from Nordstrom Rack last year. For a finishing touch I donned on a faux fruit and straw fascinator which I made myself (see the tutorial here), a vintage straw purse I found last year on Etsy, and a simple pair of pale pink pearl studs which were gifted to me several years ago by my Mother-in-law for a Christmas present.

Sunday:

On Sunday we stayed home and had a good relaxing day. For dinner we decided to go pick up some sandwiches at Quiznos. Fresh out of the shower I decided to throw on this red Sweet Sway dress by Steady which I got years ago from Angry Young and Poor. I paired this with red flats by Ecco which I found last year on Ebay and because my hair was wet and I didn't want to bother with drying it or risk it dripping on my dress I wore a red snood in my hair.

Wednesday:

On Wednesday I had some doctors appointments and ended up taking the day off of work. Though it may seem kind of weird, I decided to wear my red Steady dress again one more time before washing it since I had only spend about 15-20 minutes in it a couple days before. Going against my initial reaction of throwing on a black cardigan with this dress, I decided to pair it with a red cardigan. I like the way it ended up together. For shoes I paired this with black ankle strap flats by Blowfish; I think I might have gotten them several years ago from Zappos.
