Untucked With Some Floral Sequins

this (below) must be my I’m-about-to-crack-up-laughing at something Brittany must have said face…

and this is FOR SURE my diva face. hand motion included and everything.

and I guess this face is a littler better? The i’m-trying-not-to-laugh-but-look-a-little-mad face. You guys, I’m telling you, you should try and do this. 100% of the time, I feel like a silly goose! But really though, I’m not kidding. But you all are so encouraging and claim that you love my outfit posts, so your wish is my command! I shall continue to document my outfits and occasional silly/strange faces to accompany them! The good thing is, it’s not about my face….but which one of you can honestly look at a picture of yourself and not notice your face – no matter what the ultimate purpose? ok, i’ll stop rambling and get back to the sequins.

and yes, I know. My shoe laces are untied. What was I thinking? Such a liability!

Skirt: HAUTE HIPPIE Floral Sequined Mini Skirt (c/o eve’s apple) // Blouse: Equipment black blouse // Sweater: Tibi Sporty Mesh Sweater // Shoes: Dee Keller The Sassy (basically part of my uniform. these are the best!!) // Lips: NARS Scarlet Empress // Sunglasses: Michael Kors // Watch: MK Lexington Watch in gold // Nails: Essie A List

Remember the last time I wore this skirt? It’s a pretty one for sure! I think it would also be cute with a chunky sweater or super casual sweatshirt. In fact, I could think of several ways to dress this little skirt up and down. And are you sick of hearing of these booties by DK yet? I really hope not because I don’t plan to stop ranting and raving about my little love affair with them. They really are just perfect. Well, these AND the Christin (which is essentially the same shoe, but without the laces). I wonder if I’ll be able to wear them at my new job come January 7th? Yea….I know. That’s a definite NOT. (so sad!)

Since it’s the holidays and all, I’m sure several of you are planning to go to a few holiday parties and what not. Well, if you want my advice, don’t feel like you have to wear red or green. Consider an alternative: just look for some sequins – they should do the job. Don’t you think? Oh, and wear red lipstick (and nails) too! because it’s fun! :)

Ok, switching topics. Since 2012 is dwindling to an end, it’s that time again to get yourself a new planner/datebook. And if you don’t use one, you should probably consider using one. How do you remember everything if you don’t?! Anyway, I’ve put together an exciting and (hopefully!) extremely informative post featuring a few different options for your 2013 planner. Check back tomorrow to see the post!

Don’t forget to enter the INPINK giveaway!! It ends tonight! And have you gotten the chance to enter the NEW eberjey giveaway for a free super comfy PJ set?! I’m telling you, these are both GREAT giveaways! and while I’m mentioning it, feel free to email me and suggest any brands or companies that you think all of us (BTD gals) would enjoy – and I can see if a giveaway is a possibility! Just saying. It’s all about YOU. duh.

oh WAIT. hold up. DID YOU NOTICE THE SNOW?! Yeah. that’s right. We are getting in the holiday spirit over here on BTD. I hope you like my little December surprise :)
