challenge continuation- days 14 thru 17

Day 14- Your newest purchase.



I got this leopard circle scarf from ASOS.com about 2 weeks ago- I'm not crazy about it, but it was only $6.90 so I decided not to send it back. It feels really weird and, as you can see, doesn't really ever lay just right but I'll figure something out.

Day 15- You and someone wearing matching clothes.



This one was pretty hard to think of- I had to search WAYYYY back through my tagged facebook pictures to find this dime. My best friend and I were supposed to go to the same college, so she bought us these matching shirts that christmas. She ended up not going to that school, but we still sported the shirts for a random night trip to the playground towards the end of high school. (I'm the hazy one on the right)

Day 16- An outfit you wish you had.



[The challenge for this "Day" was supposed to be "a piece of clothing you made or altered", but I couldn't think of anything other than the sweatshirt I've been talking about and didn't want to be a bore, so I'm doing this instead since I accidentally skipped it before.]
I'm not sure who this dress is by, but I'm sure I can't afford it. It sure is lovely though, huh? I've pretty much always liked lace sleeves, but the royal wedding dress has left that interest very much heightened. I also adore the vibrancy of the red and the combination of the fabrics.

Day 17- A piece of jewelry you made.



Is this cheating? I didn't make the ring, obviously, but I did attach a suede(?) string around it to make it into a necklace. I think it counts. The ring was my dad's high school ring; my grandma let me have it when she was doing some downsizing.

Days 8 thru 13

Day 8- Most expensive article of clothing.

Love this conductor style trench! It's a little bit big on me, but it was on mega-clearance (so technically not my most expensive article- whatever) so we got it! Definitely looking forward to breaking it in this fall!



Day 9- A cute dress (or skirt).

Something else I haven't gotten to wear yet! My grandma insisted on getting this one for me, said this was how they used to dress everyday when she was my age. It's kind of hard to see all the details in the picture, but I love the flowy but still structured pleats! Hopefully someone will get married soon and I can wear it with a fascinator (really want one of those!)



Day 10- An outfit you wore on a special day.

Special day, yes... special outfit, not so much! Wore this to a show/after party that I'll never forget- got to hang out with people I've crushed on for years and met some people that are now some of my closes friends!





Day 11- A piece of jewelry that a grandparent gave you.

My grandma started gold charm bracelets for all of us granddaughters when we were in elementary school- mine didn't quite buildup like everyone else's did. I think actually destroyed one of these before she got me this one :( The only charms I have are: a dog, a sweet-water basket, a dolphin (not pictured), sand-dollar, and a horseshoe.



Day 12- A piece of jewelry that everyone compliments you on.

A friend that I've had since I was 4 got me this necklace when I was in 2nd or 3rd grade-a LONG time ago- when she was on vacation in the Tennessee mountains! They're little leather moccasins with a beaded flower design chain.



Day 13- Cute socks.

Knee high heart patterned socks from Forever 21. ... not too much to say about these, but I think they fit the bill.

C&A challenge days 2 and 3

Day 2: Your favorite shirt.





I know this one's pretty boring looking, it's much cooler in person. It's a thin, grey with pinkish-corally stripes hi-lo top from forever21, but the cool part is that the whole back of the shirt has these seashell looking buttons down the length of it. yeah... still not that cool, but HEY- you can't help who you love.

Day 3: A piece of clothing or jewelry that was a gift.



these are both gifts from my dad from some little jewelry place in/near blackpool, england. (a necklace and silver bracelet with squares of the same seashell looking stuff as the buttons on the shirt.
