Hey Everybody!  A while ago on Polyvore I made this set for a night out with the girls or a night around town.  I think the booties are adorable in the electric royal blue and really pop against the neutral leather jacket and pants.  I also love how the sand colored jacket brings out the leather on the saddle of the faded graphic tank.

Since it is the Summer I have realized that I have completely neglected this blog!  With that, I will try and get back in the swing of posting before school returns... and the homework. (:  Have a lovely day!

Would you wear leather on leather?

Christmas List 2011

Hey everyone!
   Lately, I have been brainstorming a list of what I would like for the holidays.  Wow, there are so many things out there, what to choose?  My newest print obsession is fair isle, which is totally Christmas themed so it's perfect!  I saw these adorable socks, vest, and sweaters while I was window Internet-window shopping about a week ago:
The sweaters and vest are from here.  The socks are from here and here.

    I love the reindeer fair isle socks from Topshop!  Their just the cutest. (:  I'm usually not a vest-wearer, but I could definitely incorporate that into my wardrobe, and I've been taking fashion risks and expressing my true sense of fashion a lot more lately. 

   

    I also would like to try my hand at apparel making.  I like to sew, but I have only made a skirt so far.  So, for Christmas I'm asking for an adjustable Maidenform.  It's a model you can pin into and adjust its size.  It might be a total fail, but I think it would be so amazing for someone to ask you, "Where did you get that," and be able to say, "I made it!"  These little fantasies of mine....

    I will probably make a part two to this, but for now I gotta go!  Hope you enjoyed!!

Brand of Beauty: Alice + Olivia

Hey!  I have been drooling over Alice + Olivia designs for years!  Sadly, even if you wait for the pieces to go on sale their still pricey so this beautiful brand isn't tucked away in my closet! :(  Even if I'm not up to spending that much, I still love to turn to their latest collections for inspiration.

I think this dress from the 2011 Fall Collection is adorable!  Also, how easy is it to buy a cream lace top and tuck it into a black A-line skirt!

Some look-a-like options are:

This isn't as form fitting, but could still look great!

I also found some great options at Wet Seal, Forever 21, Macy's, and Free People.  The black A-line is a basic peice, most stores have a cute one (:
