sweet sixteen

i wore this is the outfit to work today so i was layered up once again. i need to get a deep v tee from american apparel in a small to wear under things, all mine are oversized. this grey tee i thought looked good a little blousen around the dress neckline though. this dress is one of my favourite easy summer pieces. i bought it for 16.99 and it has such a great cut i had to get it in the orange colour too. i've been inspired by rachel bilson and rumi from fashion toast lately and it's urged me to break out my old jeans jacket. i just cut the sleeves off of it today to make it a little more cropped and fitted. it's funny, when i originally bought this the cropped fit was so retro 80's and no one was buying it that i got it at a huge discount. now 5 years later cropped jackets are commonplace. i still have to sew the sleeves but i wore it anyway, i've been impatient like that a lot lately. i think this outfit would have look cool with chunky heels but it has to be flats for work so instead i turned to my trusty moccasins once again. oh, i had to put in a close up of the hair and makeup today because i really liked how it turned out. one a side note, walking home today i noticed a obvious knockoff off my marc by marc bag in a store window and it made me so mad.
