Take 5

I have been dying to do this post since the beginning of the summer! Waiting around for a photographer wasn't working out, so I went ahead and selfied it out!

Firstly, this navy and white striped dress is from Forever 21. It was only $24.99 and I have definitely gotten my money's worth! So here's the rundown:

2.Scarf -Marshalls, Shoes- J Simps, Belt - Target
3.Blazer - J Crew, Scarf - "Borrowed" from my grandma, Boots - Steve Madden (super old)
4. Blazer - Vince Camuto, Belt- Target, Shoes- J Simps
5. My favorite! Whistle Necklace - J Crew, Denim shirt - Old Navy, Gold Sperrys- Nordstrom

The Girl in the Yellow Dress

For about two weeks now I have been rockin' my God given kinks and coils out of curiosity and frugality. I started out with a flat twist out that turned into a semi-cute puff ball. When planning my look for my friend's wedding, I had to decide if I was going to blow it out or keep it kinky. I saw a bunch of cute natural styles on Pinterest, so I decided to try one out. It wasn't a total epic fail.

Here are the deets for the total look: Hair clips - Forever 21, Earrings - Francesca's, Dress - Ivy and Blu, Shoes - J Crew (old), Clutch- TJ Maxx (old)
