28 for 28 - 8/28


The Usual Suspects:

* Mac
* Peter Pan collar dress
* Purple flats


It's a head-to-toe UK day!

It's under 80 degrees out today, which means a coat was needed. I'm from Miami, people...60 degrees is like a state of emergency!

I LOVE the peter pan collar dress from ASOS! That is all. :)

28 for 28 - 7/28


The Usual Suspects:

* Green striped blouse
* Pencil skirt
* Wedges

The Accomplice:

*Sparrow necklace, Torrid, $12
Simple work outfit. That's about it.

I think I might be slightly obsessed with bird accessories.

28 for 28 - 6/28


The Usual Suspects:

* Cream blouse
* Tutu Skirt
* Studded Flats

The Accomplice:

* Gold Owl Locket

This skirt is HUGE. I was pulling it up all day, and I ordered my regular size, to suffice to say that if you're thinking of ordering it, you should probably size down.

Also, I heard a lot about these flats, and how the elastic in the back is really tight and annoying. I thought that was an exaggeration until about 2 hours of wear, when I realized I wanted to yank them off and throw them somewhere. So yeah. These are going to need to be cut or something.

Aesthetically, at least, I like my little ballerina outfit though. LOL

28 for 28 - 5/28



The Usual Suspects:

* Black Polo
* Yellow Shorts
* Lace Oxfords

The Accomplices:

* Lace tights, Torrid, $8
* My pug, Pig, priceless LOL

Comfy weekend outfit. I've realized I really like yellow LOL And it used to be one of my least favorite colors.

Unfortunately, the tights ripped almost immediately. As in, I opened the package, put them on, and they ripped. They are officially crotchless tights LMAO I'll keep them because the tear isn't too obvious under clothes, and crotchless tights can be useful ROFL but be warned!

and just cuz I had to! LOL

28 for 28 - 4/28


Hubs is asleep, so I'll have to make due...




The Usual Suspects:

* Denim Jacket
* White Polka-Dot Dress
* Burgundy Heels

The Accomplice:

* Red belt (for National Wear Red Day!), Evans, £5

Very comfy dress, I felt super cute in it, and I got more compliments today than I have on any other outfit I've posted yet! LOL

The dress is fully lined, NOT as long as it looks on me (it's actually just under my knee, the photos don't show that very well) and it cost me only $17. WIN.

Gotta throw some make-up on and wake up hubs lol We're going out tonight! :)

28 for 28 - 3/28



The Usual Suspects:

* Black Tunic
* Jeggings
* Black Boots

The Accomplice:

* Zebra print belt

My hair looks like crap. Believe it or not, this was the pic where it most cooperated LOL I guess hubs isn't as reliable a photo-taker as I'd like. Also, Pig snuck into the pic, so here he is!

Very laid back to the office today...My boss/father/co-owner is back from vacation tomorrow, which is GREAT because it means I can stop doing 2 peoples jobs! Considering it was my last day of running around like a chicken with its head cut off, I wanted to be comfortable :)

and just for kicks, here's another pic of my Piglet...

28 for 28 - 2/28

 


The Usual Suspects:



idk what's going on with the phantom dots on the photo. I swear my clothes isn't dirty! LOL I have no idea what's causing the spots on the pants or the shirt, I'm assuming the light, but maybe the lens is just dirty?

So, yeah. Laid back office look. We don't have a dress code, I can wear jeans, a t-shirt and flip flops every day if I want (and I did for about 2 years straight!) but I tend to go for more business casual just cuz lately, I feel better when I'm dressed up. Who knew?! LOL

28 for 28 - 1/28



sorry for the ultra saturated pic...the light was super weird!
 The Usual Suspects:

* Black knit long sweater, Old Navy
* Pink dual-layer shirt, Casual Plus
* Trouser jeans, Old Navy
* Burgundy heels, Target

The Accomplice:

* Pepe


I actually made a list of every single outfit I could come up with using the 28 items! I don't plan on wearing them in any particular order, since the weather in Miami is pretty bipolar this time of year, but it helps to narrow things down when I'm running around frantically to get out the door on time in the morning...

Very excited for the rest of the month :)
