The 90's called...

I bought this skirt a while back (remember...?) and I've been dying to wear it ever since. I just didn't know how to style it without looking like an extra from my-so called life...so I decided not to fight against it.

The only way that you can tell it's not 1994 is that I'm wearing a Foo Fighters tee!

Can anyone tell me where to find Jordan Catalano?

T-shirt- Target men's department

Short black skirt- The Gap

Long sheer skirt- Forever 21+

Sweeter than Heaven and hotter than Hell.

Ever since I saw Florence and the Machine last week, I haven't been able to stop listening to "Lungs".
I adore her insane ability to scream and howl and hit every note perfectly with such apparent lack of effort.

I also adored her green chiffon dress that fluttered around her as she danced.

In other news, here's what I wore today. It's not green but it sure is sweet, and it is hotter than hell outside for sure!

Something old, new, borrowed and BLUE!

Today I spent hours and hours filling out the forms to apply for American Citizenship. I took a little break to try something different.
I got this shirt last December (old), but I've never worn it (new), my friend Betsey has (borrowed), and it is the brightest BLUE I have ever seen!

Shirt-ASOS Curve

Jeans- The Gap

Shoes- Torrid

Purse- Lucky Brand

Necklace- Givenchy

I loved this shirt so much when I saw it on ASOS.com, but in person it seemed a little intimidating.
The zipper detail on the back of the shirt made it look luxurious and fresh.
 For some reason plus size clothes don't usually have the design elements that straight sizes have, I don't know why.
 This makes me shop a lot at ASOS because I feel like they really understand my wants and needs.

I felt a little weird wearing a blue shirt with blue jeans, but it felt relaxed. I think if I had have worn the shirt with black trousers as I'd originally thought I would have looked as if I were going to "the office".

I think next time I'd wear it with a darker wash jean.

I decided to go for a matte pink lip with a hint of red to play off the bold blue shirt and neon green in my necklace. 

Coincidentally my nails have been blue all week too!  (MAC "Naughty Nauticals" from 2009 in case you were wondering)
