Summer Trends:

Orange & Fishtails



What I'm wearing:
Skirt: Vintage thrifted ($1.50)
Shorts: Gap thrifted (3.99)
Shirt: H&M
Necklace: Thrifted
Snake skin gladiator heels: Moms's closet
When I'm not busy saving the world, fighting crime, & being a mommy,
I like to sit in a hot bath and read fashion mags.
Apparently Orange is a hot color this summer, so when I found these two
pieces, I was excited (especially since they were inexpensive).
It was hard to find a top to go with such bright colors,
but I found a floral print at H&M for less than 10$ and was sold.
I feel a little eighties-ed out in these outfits, but they're fun, so whatevs.

*The shorts are super high waisted so I have to make sure they don't
creep up too much resulting in really embarrassing camel toes and such.

I tried to do an orange lipstick that matched the outfits,
but i felt like neon orange lip stick was a bit much.

  3. Oddly, I don't think 80's so much as Ann Margaret in an Elvis movie, in Hawaii in the late 50's. I think it's absolutely lovely, and your legs are killer!

  7. Oooh, SUCH a flattering outfit! You look so great! Good to know it's thrifty too.

    I LOVE fishtail braids! You're so lucky you have the long hair to do that on (p.s. speaking of your lovely hair, I commented back to your earlier comment on my blog.... I never know if it'll notify people or not).

    So, you're probably right about the neon lipstick but I'm loving the color of you went with, what did you use?
