Hair Magic with Jewel

Hi Friends :) Again, so sorry for the major lack of posting. Moving into the new apartment is going swell, almost got my closet set up (which is the most important part!) Picked out paint colors with Niky and Kasey and I can't wait to post photos after we get it done at the end of this month :) We have been getting ready for our vacation to Orlando, planning out all of our outfits! But one of our most important prep errands was getting our hair done. I took 6 inches off and Kasey had a touch up on her beautiful blonde. We discovered Jewel while in college (or rather she discovered us) and the rest has been history. She has done an amazing job with Kasey's golden locks. She gave me my first big girl hair cut (prior, I had just been going to beauty schools) and I trusted her with my virgin hair when I wanted to try my first color. If you are in the Seattle area and need a good stylist, please check Jewel out at the Redmond Town Center Regis Salon. She is so knowledgeable and friendly and FABULOUS.



AH! My hair was so crazy long. You know you need a haircut if you accidentally buckle it into the seatbelt.



My hair feels so fresh and light now! But my boyfriend told me he couldn't he even notice the difference! Lol, actually, nobody at work could tell either :)



Jewel and Kasey were really digging my school girl outfit today. And these shoes are comfy!



Hope your holiday errands are getting done without a hitch!

First up today is this Calvin Klein coat I bought end of season last year at Nordstrom Rack for $30! This coat is amazing for wearing short sleeves in the winter time because it has these nifty built in sweater sleeves.



I was so cozy, I pretty much wore this around the office all day!



Paired this power blue peplum top with an a-line pleated pleather skirt. I've seen this shape on other blogs and decided to try! I think I'm a little top heavy for this look, but it was fun :)



Also, got these shoes at a deep discount (less than $10!) from Forever 21. Can't go wrong with a glitter stacked heel!



Happy Hump day, everyone! Can you believe that it's almost the weekend again already? HOORAY!

Disneyland Darlings

We went to the happiest place on earth for Thanksgiving and had a wonderful time! Although I was seriously on the struggle bus this last day, we looked adorable! I love and cherish my photos from Disneyland. The key to extra good photos is to coordinate your clothing as if you were going to take family photos. Complimentary colors and a bit of matching can go a long way. We're supposed to be Huey, Dewey & Louie!!!



I even color coordinated with Goofy! I think I found myself a new boyfriend :)



Can't wait to go to Disneyworld with these lovely ladies this Christmas! Already planning our outfit extravaganza!

I've been super excited to try stripes with a lady like printed peplum.
My (current) favorite pair of heels makes this outfit for me!


So funny story! My Canon 40D decided to die on me so pictures will be taken
with Kasey's Nokia Lumia 920 (Windows phone FTW!) until it gets fixed!


I'm not a regular clutch user, but I loved the size of this one!


Girly girl is kind of my favorite aesthetic :)

I've always wanted a horse of my own!
What's that saying about dressing the part?


Feeling perfectly preppy and peppy :D


I will never tire of pretty embellished cardis <3

Sassy Sari

Attended an amazing Indian dance performance this weekend.
Took the opportunity to put on a fabulous sari!


The pallu (the strip of fabric over my left shoulder) is my favorite part!


Love these beautiful bangles. Indian ladies know what's up!


Can't wait to find another excuse to rock a sari :)

Glad I dressed down a bit, did a lot of running around the office today!


Loving these blue corduroys. I Think I need more colors!


Bows are the best for dressing up lazy hair day buns :)


Definitely ready to relax this weekend!

Holiday season means jewel tones for everybody!


Yes, those are most definitely parrots :)




Cobalt blue ruffles on my feet? Yes please!


You can't tell, but I'm really hungry in this picture :P


Anyone else love wearing brighter than life jewel tones?

OMG, SHOES

I try to be reasonable with the amount of money I spend on clothing. But I definitely can't help myself when it comes to shoes! My style is a bit on the dressier side so my shoe collection is mainly comprised of sky high heels. But I'm not gonna lie- wearing 5-inchers every day can be really rough. I shied away from flats because I never found anything that could match my level of dressiness... until this season :)


I jumped on the burgundy bandwagon with these from Forever 21. It is exciting to see loafers take on such delicate lines.


These girly pointed flats are SO FIERCE with this conical hardware from Urban Outfitters. They come in five different colors!


I really adore the loafer shape. Picked up these classy navies from Nordstrom Rack for a steal!

Have you seen any other amazing flats this season?

Cape Bandit

Fall means I get to bring out the cape!


I love how girly and unexpected this cape is.


Mixing it up a little bit today with some navy fringe :)


Finishing up this look with a black and gold statement necklace.

Funky School Teacher

Lately I've really been digging sleeveless tops layered over oxfords.
It's a great way to transition summer items into fall.


Mixing this adorable owl print with navy houndstooth was a lot of fun!
A thin belt is always great for shaping up any outfit.

Couldn't decide which color I wanted wear.


So I decided to wear all of them! :)


Still obsessed with bows! I think Blair Waldorf would be proud.


Pockets!!!


Played with this cardigan a little by wearing it backwards.
