What I Wore // Parisian Chic

 Hat -- Hand me down

Sweater -- Banana Republic via thrift store [$5 bag sale]

Skirt -- Target [don't remember]

Shoes -- Famous Footwear [around $25] 

Today I didn't know what I was going to wear, but I went to get dressed and somehow this outfit made its way onto my body and before I new it I was curling my (totally grown out) bangs. It sort of reminds me of a stereotypical French dude- like this fashionable man, oh-hoh-hoh.

I bought this skirt like, maybe two years ago, at Target. And let me just tell you, I love this skirt. It's like the best thing I've ever owned and it has never failed me (it's very, er... loyal.) Do you guys have a favorite skirt? Where is it from?

Trendy Tuesday // Palazzo Pants

Hello lovelies! How are you all doing on this fine Tuesday? I have deemed today Trendy Tuesday, because, I mean, it's Tuesday and 'Trendy Tuesday' is rather catchy, you've got to admit. So I thought I would pick out a trend and post my thoughts on it! If any of ya'll want to join in and do a 'Trendy Tuesday' post on your own blog, leave me a link below in the comments- I would love to see it!

So today I'm doing...

Palazzo Pants!

I've seen this trend around lately and I must say, I'm loving it. I think it's so cute and comfortable.

Some, like the pair above, almost look like a skirt at first glance.

Others have a bit more of a defined pant leg.

However I must say I do think these are actually more for the summer time.

I also really like palazzo pants because they're already so pizzazz-y that you don't need to add a lot of accessories and things to look fabulous. 

What do you think about Palazzo Pants?

What I Wore // '50s style for church

Hello lovelies! How was your Sunday? Today I went to church, then to Hy-vee, then to Chipotle (which is one of my favorite places to eat :) ). 

Dress -- thrift store [around $7.00]

Tank top -- Target [unknown]

Tights -- Walmart [$4.00]

Shoes -- Famous Footwear [around $25.00]

Purse -- borrowed from my sister, from Target

I was going for a bit of a 1950s vibe with this outfit- I was excited to wear this dress as I'd purchased it months ago and never worn it until today! I was going to show my hair, which was in an updo of sorts (and which I was quite proud of since before now I could never get it quite right ;) ), but some photos got lost somehow. 

Well, I'd better be off, I'm going to help my sister do up some dishes and then later I'm going to a different sister's house to watch some baseball!

What I Wore // Cozy and Simple

Hello everyone! Today my sister and I had a dear friends birthday party to go to, so we woke up at around 8:00 and drove into town to buy her a gift. It was slightly chilly so I decided to wear a new scarf that I haven't had a chance to wear yet!

Scarf -- gift from a friend

Sweater -- Wal-Mart [$10.00?]

Jeans -- Express via Plato's Closet [$16.00]

Boots -- don't remember [$12.00]

After the birthday party we came home, tidied up the kitchen, and relaxed for a while. Gahh I love Saturdays. :)

I tied this scarf really simply today, but I love the way it looks! Since my scarf is rectangular, I folded it in half and then in a triangle shape before I wrapped it once around. Lately I've been experimenting with different ways to tie scarfs. 

What's your favorite way to tie a scarf? What do you like most about Saturdays?
