a blazer makes it official

As promised, I've got an outfit post for you all!  Not quite so traditional, it was really different shooting pictures inside. I was also working with a new photographer, who is obviously awesome to be able to make me look not absolutely ridiculous.

Since it's been quite a bit warmer lately, I pulled out one of my favorite light lacey dresses... but here's the exciting part: WITHOUT TIGHTS!  I know, I'm wild.  And with the help of one of the roommates, I made it semi appropriate for the season with the navy blue blazer.  I think in the past week, I have worn a blazer with ever single outfit.  It's becoming an obsession.  I was also extremely excited to wear my new yellow nail polish!  Be prepared to cover your eyes from bright nail polish through out the spring.

 

 With the photographer!  Isn't she just the bomb.com.

I'll be heading to Wilmington for the next couple days where I'm so excited to visit with friends and go shopping at some of my favorite places!  I'm hoping I'll be able to fit a post in or two, but you can definitely expect plenty of pictures.

Lovely Lace

earrings: Bead Box, dress: H&M, boots: Urban Outfitters

Earlier this week and last week I pulled out all my tights, scarves, hats, and boots.  My cousin, who is visiting for the weekend, even offered to bring up my fall and winter coats from home.  But of course, whenever I get excited/prepared for the start of a new season, it flips the other way.  Today was a nice and sultry 70 degrees.  So I shed the tights (for now) and got a chance to wear the white lace dress I got for my birthday, in September...

I love lace, but I still like to counter everything so it doesn't look too girly.  So what better than some faux combat boots.  I just got another pair that are more appropriate for cold weather, and will likely be making regular appearances. 

I guess all I can do for now is appreciate ths warm weather while it's here.  Afterall it's supposed to be one of the coldest winters for a while!  I do love layers.
