Fall into a new flow

Fall is my absolute favorite. 

Days like today make me want to stop time and be able to look at every sun ray bouncing off every color changing leaf.

I love this fall especially because it means  2013 is almost over.

It's been the toughest year of my life. 

I'm working towards making it better, so I started my blog again, hopefully it will give me the creative outlet I so desperately need. 

How are y'all anyway?

Happy Fall y'all! 

Shiver Shiver Sniff Sniff

The Tanzer household has been rather sad and sniffly this past week. We've been sharing our sicknesses with each other. This means that my outfits have consisted of pjamas and slippers I'm afraid, hence the lack of updates.

I have had time to browse all of my favorite clothing websites being cooped up in this place, so here is my "Holy guacamole Batman, I hope this is really cheap in the sales after Christmas so I can buy it and love it" list.

First ASOS Curve

 

I love the sleeve length and sweet collar on this skater dress. It has a little keyhole in the back too. Details like this make a dress feel special.

This bunny print shirt is adorable. I would wear this at an art show opening.

 

This shirt is so luxe looking. I know I'd wear it forever.

 

This just makes me happy.

This outfit needs to get on me NOW!

Maybe it's the 90's kid in me. I think she looks like a grown up Clarissa :)

 

I never thought a coat could be sexy, but this is. *sigh*

 

When I first saw this dress I gasped....then I gasped at the price tag :(
Please be under $75 soon! I can't justify $147.76...or can I?It's just so pretty.

Ok, next up 

Forever 21+

 

This dress could work anywhere. I'm digging the watermelon color too.

I wear the heck out of my black and white tank, so one in my favorite color seems like a good idea.

 

This sweater would make anyone smile 

 

This jacket is similar to an ASOS Curve jacket I still mourn the loss of.

I love basics with a twist.

There's only 1 thing I want from Old Navy





I am feeling all these hearts everywhere.

Simply Be 
has some pieces that I like a lot


That's a shoe print dress! 






This shirt glows. 

 
This looks oh so cozy. I want to wear it with red jeans!
I also pretty much want all of the Frock and Frills line as it's so romantic.

So, that's it for now. 
I'll be back with an outfit soon I swear.
UNless I can get away with wearing pjs to work tomorrow....  

Circus Pants

 

Top- Karen Kane

Pants- Simply Be

Ballet Flats- Old Navy

Earrings- Francescas

See that smile on my face? That's because I am wearing super comfy pants. 

In a world of skinny jeans and cigarette pants Simply Be has provided me with a pair of pants that won't make me feel like my thighs are in a straight jacket, squeeze my hips into busted can of biscuit territory (worse that a muffin top) or make me have to lie down to zip them up.

Although my trousers may have been worn by a circus clown before me, I couldn't care less. 

I love them!

Lace Polka Dots

 

I love tattoos. I have a sleeve planned in my head, I have sketchbooks full of drawings and a Pinterest board dedicated to the art.

With all this being said the only ink I actually have is a tiny little 5 point star on my right inner wrist. 

    Shirt- Old Navy
    Skirt- Forever 21+
    Tights- Torrid
    Shoes- Payless
    Earrings- H&M

I've always wanted a lace tattoo, but until the day that happens, these tights will do just fine. No pain necessary! 

Hey Now, Crazy Pants

For some reason I have embraced crazy looking pants. I blame this image.

Anyway, I'm kind of in love with these zany trousers, they're super comfy and made me smile whenever I looked down.

They're a bit of a fashion risk, but you only live once, right?

Cardigan- Ross

Tank- DD's 

Crazy Pants- Old Navy

Boots- Ross

Sunglasses- Target

These were shot in Piedmont Park on a gloriously unseasonably sunny day

Feel free to send me this card because there are more crazy pants to come!

Lotus

I was shocked when I was in Target yesterday and saw Christina Aguilera has a new album out. This baby of mine is keeping me away from valuable information I tell you ;)

Anyway, I think I chose to wear this flowery dress today because I've been listening to "Lotus" (Miss Aguileras new album) and I like the symbolism behind the title;

"The lotus represents “an unbreakable flower that survives under the hardest conditions and still thrives”

Sometimes I feel like I need the strength of a lotus.

 Dress- Target

Leggings- Old Navy

Cardigan- GAP
Boots- Ross

Belt- Macys

Ok, usually I hate "matchy matchy" stuff, but I am amazed at how my $3 shades match my outfit practically perfectly.

Sunglasses- 5 Below

Paprika!

 Today I took my Teddy bear to the coffee shop for him to meet a new friend.

How freaking cute is my baby boy? 

 

I had plans to take photos outside with the autumn leaves, but it started to rain as soon as I grabbed my camera.

Such a gorgeous color!

My wonderful friend Kat made me this beautiful and intricate scarf. It took her months and months. 

I love it so.

RED

I didn't buy the new Taylor Swift album, but I do think she is adorable, and I love her style at the moment.

I do get "We are never ever ever ever ever getting back together" stuck in my head a lot.

Anyways, here's my red shirt from yesterday....I think I might download that song now.....

Top- Old Navy

Jeans- Gap

Boots- Kenneth Cole

Necklace- ???

Tomato red and mint green is an underrated color combo, and I LOVE it!

Spot the comeback

On Friday I made my debut back at work since having baby Ted.

As an owner of a coffee shop/art gallery I can pretty much wear whatever I fancy as long as I don't care if it gets coffee stains on it.

 It was hard to be away from my baby (I thought about him constantly), but it was nice to see everyone and drink awesome coffee!

I got a little bit of work done too.

This is what I wore

Blouse- GAP

Jeans- GAP

Shoes- Old Navy

Necklace- JCrew

Coffee- Hazelnut latte

Sunglasses- Target

I REALLY like polka dots.

Listen to the Darkside

Last night me and my buddy Logan went to see Charlie Mars.

I was a little bummed because we were told he was going on at 8pm, and didn't go on until 10.30pm. I ended up leaving at 11.15pm because I was worried that I'd get in an accident if I let my already sleep deprived self drive home.

Those 45 minutes were stellar though.

After seeing him play by himself 3 times, it was a treat to see him with a band behind him.

 I'm sad I missed my favorite songs, but Charlie actually told me to go.

 I thought "Should I stay for one more song?" and he started playing 'No Place Like Home", hard to argue with that.
