Well what can I say about these outfits, I have a very large wardrobe but really I only wear about twenty percent of it. The thing about me is, I usually look for the best bargain possible. I get an item or piece of clothing that I want stuck in my head and then look everywhere for it, till I can find a reasonable price.  My army pants were a T.J. Maxx find, only ten dollars!  The sweater in that outfit only $25.00.  My Sweater in the top outfit, only $25.00 and the Red Hot Chili Pepper tank, was mens from Target that I cut up and made my own.  In the middle outfit, I bought the polka dot shirt for $7.00.  What Im trying to say here is just because looking around for a bargain takes time, its completely worth it. Usually I scope out a store's website before I actually walk in to see if they have exactly what I'm looking for and if its on sale. You don't have to break the bank to have a great wardrobe. Hopefully some photography posts to come this week!

Cheerio for now!

Finally Autumns in the Air

                         

Happy Autumn Everyone, what would we do without this beautiful month of October. Well what can I say about this little number. I'm myself. I feel free. I also am not very poetic right now. Autumn makes me feel free. Its like the change in seasons gives me a new boost. I have a hard time putting the shorts away so tights work perfectly. I'll let you into a secret, these combat boots are one of the best purchases I've ever made. Now here's the secret...Target. I buy lots of basics, odds and ends, and quirky things there.  My work schedule has me going crazy, todays my first day off. I hope everyones having a wonderful day, I will be back this week!
Cheerio!

Stripes & Red

Happy Monday everyone! Well today on the darling blog I would love to emphasize how much I love stripes. Really though, at least a quarter of my wardrobe is striped. Stripes are something that have stayed for many generations and never go out of style. There what we call classic. When an item of clothing or something is worn for more than a decade it becomes classic. Red is also my color pop in this outfit and it is my favorite color as well. These shorts are also made by yours truly.  Their younger boys shorts that I bought at Salvation Army for a couple of dollars. I cut them and sewed the cuffs. Simple as anything. Its my final days of shorts weather and I'm going into the autumn excited. I hope you have a lovely week!

Cheerio!

Hello there Autumn

                     
 

There was a poem I had to learn in middle school called "The Road Not Taken" by Robert Frost. It was a poem about taking the path that seems distant, that not many would choose but yet it lead to the most amazing out come. On adventures with my best friend, are new thing is trying to take the "road not taken". Which lead us to stumble on such an amazing building as this in the middle of the woods. This outfit is pretty casual but it was good for the walk. Its the times when your far away from the world and all you can feel is the cool air and the smell of trees, that you feel Autumn from the inside. My leggings are lululemon. I live out of leggings in the winter and they were  a perfect investment. I hate when leggings are transparent, nobody wants to see that! I also live out of my vans, because well I am a sneaker kind of girl. I'm too excited about the weather change and it shows! Well happy autumn everyone!
Cheerio!

In the Air this Morning

Happy Sunday! Overcast skies and the faint feeling of redemption is the forecast for the day. I had someone tell me my outfit was Pinterest worthy so I felt it fit in my blog very well. Being the girl whose had about fifty jobs J.Crew used to be one of them. That's when I got these fabulous pants. You can't see but they have the most adorable zippers near the waist. Don't worry you'll see them again! I'm not shy about using pieces with different outfits! This shirt is one of my favorites. I am indeed a Free People kind of girl. The bohemian styles and eccentric patterns rock my world. I also love a good deal and this shirt was $7.00 at the consignment store. Prime budget find! Mikaela my best friend is sporting Francesca's per usual. You'll see a lot of her seeing as she's my soul mate and we do everything together and I may steal her wardrobe and she steals mine! What are best friends for?

As for the redemption in the air, I find that as Sunday rolls around people around the country make their way to church. They are all reminded of the grace and forgiveness of their Savior that they may had lost during the week. They feel redeemed. Now clearly it's a state of speech to say I can smell it in the air, and that it's silly. Truly being reminded of Jesus's unending love for my beat soul brings me redemption. I hope you all have a great day! 

Cheerio!
