Cleaning out the archives . . .

I admit that I haven't been on it the past few months with taking pictures and posting regurlary. And even when I've taken picures, they somehow just haven't made it to my computer, much less to the blog. In an effort to clean out the archives, here's a few outfits from the past month or so.

Who remembers Delia's catalog? I remember my cousin Treeia and I flipping through Delia's when we were younger, picking out things that we never ordered. This shirt is bright, fun, and floral! I paired it with some wardrobe essentials for work, but could easily wear it with some denim shorts on the weekend.

June Ambrose Inspired Turban

June Ambrose and Chrisette Michelle

I've been taking quite a few fashion risks lately! A few weeks ago, I decided to jump on the turban bandwagon and see what responses I would get. I'm sure that this look will never make it to work, but it was fun to wear on the weekend.

Carrera Sunglasses [Gift]

Back in May, during my last H&M Shopping Spree I tried on a pair of harem pants and regretted not buying them ever since. I was not making the same mistake twice when I went shopping over the weekend. First of all, I don't know what I was thinking going to the mall on tax free weekend! But in the end, it was soo worth it because I found 2 pair of harem pants and Camden some fly sneakers for less than $35. I am really surprised by this outfit, I was a little nervous to wear such a bold print to work, but paired with a neutral top I guess it is possible to be printed and professional. I have a few ideas for these pants, so stay tuned for a possible 1 Pair of Pants, 3 Looks post! The new eye wear were a gift and really finished off the outfit. Until recently, I had no idea what Carrera's were, but they do look good on me!

Confession: These pants are from H&M's Mama Maternity Line. Now as someones mama and I have no idea why these pants are maternity because they are 100% Viscose, the only stretch is the elastic waistband. They fit and they don't have that huge belly band that most maternity pants have, so a great addition to the wardrobe (even if I'm not expecting, and I'm definitely NOT).
