Something New

dsc05713pp dsc05711pp dsc05714pp

Today I decided to try something new.  It’s been three months since I shaved my head and I finally have enough hair to  play around with.  I’ve been wanting to color my had so bad but that was what got me into trouble in the first place so I decided to add length via clip in hair extensions that I made.  This was my end result, I was a little iffy about it and then as I wore it around the house I thought it was cute.  When I decided to take outfit pictures I wanted something edgy to match my hair.   I looked in my closet and spotted this tribal print skirt I found at Ross Dress for Less for only $8.99 a few days ago. I thought it would be perfect paired with all black and topped off with my go-to moto jacket from Topshop.  Overall I was pretty pleased with the look.  My husband on the other hand, chose his right to remain silent on the hair…lol  Luckily for me and maybe him, its clip-ins and can be easily removed or changed up. As my hair continues to grow, I look forward to changing it up every now and then with my outfit of the days. Don’t you just love being a girl.dsc05722ppSkirt: Ross Dress for Less | Jacket: Topshop (tall), similar in tall, similar in tall | Top: Old Navy, similar | Shoes: Nine West via Nordstrom, similar up to size 12 | Earrings: Forever 21

Blazer and Jeans

I think if I had to describe my go to look it would definitely be the combination of a blazer and jeans.  Its such and easy way to get dressed and gives off an effortless and polished look.  I probably own over 20 blazers/jackets. I just love them and can’t seem to pass them up, especially if they are on sale. Today’s blazer was a great clearance find earlier this year from Target.  I stalked it, figuring it would make it to the clearance racks here in Hawaii and sure enough it did.  I got this baby for under $10.  My jeans are from Old Navy and I really love the minor distressing and cropped ankle length of these jeans.  I think it adds a bit more oomph to my look without feeling too young for me.  My shoes were another great find from Nordstrom Rack.  I truly love that store and when I find great shoes in my size, for the discounted prices, it always feels like Christmas and in the past couple of months I have been racking up, so I must be on Santa’s Good list. ;)DSC04756ppWhat I’m Wearing:

New Black Converse

Hi lovelies! Today I’m keeping it comfortable, casual and cool in my new black converse.  I picked up these sneakers last weekend at the Converse store at our local Waikele Outlets.  The hubby took me on an early shopping excursion for my, birthday which is actually on the 25th of this month.  He will be out of town on a business trip so we celebrated  doing my favorite thing at the outlets and Nordstrom Rack.  I have been organizing my closet again and taking notes of classic items that I’m missing and black converse were on that list so I was happy to be able to pick these up.  It was great because we received a 15% military discount on them as well since the Converse store is one that appreciate’s the military.  So my husband and I both thought that was really cool. I know that I really appreciate him and all that he does so it is always great to see when others appreciate him as well.  They even thanked him for his service, it made me smile.

I decided to pair my black converse with my new Old Navy Rock Star mid-rise coated black skinnies.  If you recall I’ve stated before that sometimes Old Navy Jeans in tall, can be a hit or miss lengthwise for me.  These jeans were definitely a hit.  They are at least 36″ in the inseam, as you can see they bunch up a little down at my ankles, super long.  I am wearing a 16 tall for reference. They also fit like a glove with the stretch.  Hope this helps you if you were deciding whether or not to buy a pair yourself. Another plus is that they are currently on sale and can be found here.

Ooh and before I forget let me tell you about this Levi’s denim jacket I found at Ross!  It’s the perfect wash and I love the slight oversized and relaxed fit of it.  I found it in the men’s section while browsing with my husband.  Its a size large and I absolutely love it.  The sleeves are super long and it already has that worn in feel. What’s even more amazing is that it was only $24.99.  Can you say score.  So happy to have found this classic piece!

It’s so funny while my hubby was snapping these pics for me he makes a comment saying so you waited until you cut off all your hair to start dressing normal. I was like what does that mean.  He says sneakers and jeans, that is how you’re supposed to dress…I’m like whatever..lol He is a man of very simple tastes.  One of the things I love about him…most of the time…..lol
