I almost never

I don't think I've ever really posted a blog dedicated to things, specifically clothes that I want. Namely because I very rarely go shopping for new clothes - for myself - and the fact that I'm pretty fat. But, I think I've caught the fever! This will serve as my first official fashion post. My style? Yeah, don't really have one. I like to keep it simple. I like the jeans and a t-shirt look. I still rock my converse and when I get dressed up, it's in slacks and a nice blouse. Not big on dresses, definitely do not follow fashion, so I don't really know what's cool or anything. As long as it fits and it allows me to feel at least a little comfortable, I'm down with it. But, I do know that my work style and out-of-work style need to neatly mesh. Always a factor - covering up those pesky arm and feet tattoos. So, I like to be able to wear cute tops with a cover up - if needed, that way as soon as I leave for the day, I can throw off my blazer/cardigan/sweater and be on my way! Current job doesn't really have any guidelines, and it's pretty casual, so that's always good. Enough about me!! Below are a few items that I really like and will work pretty hard to obtain this summer!


This cute little number would be perfect at work, perfect for a night out and just a perfect LBD, overall.


I love this outfit. It screams summer-cool. And I love it!


This is just the right amount of casual, coolness for me. I would pretty much wear this outfit, or a variety thereof, pretty much everywhere.


And this. This would be a little dressier. Man, linen pants - how I love thee. (Is that horrible?) In high school, I had 2 pairs of linen pants that I absolutely loved. This look is bringing it back to me. I also think I'm ready to brave the scarf look. May be a little late, but you know what they say...


In love with this shirt from The Gap. Easy to dress up or down. Could wear to work, which is always a good thing!


Also, really love this shirt. Paired with some khaki's would be the perfect Friday outfit.


No, really. I really do want this hat! I WILL be going to the beach this summer. I WILL be frequenting the community pool in the neighborhood, and I WILL wear this hat! Gotta protect this porcelain skin, dears.

And, since I will be frequenting places that require less clothing, I will most definitely be buying these:


There you have it, folks. My first blog about looks I like. I kind of like this. Maybe I'll do so more often. Great. Now I want to go shopping on my lunch break.

I always think you look cute! And yes, that's the problem with fashion-inspired blogs, it makes you want to spend $! Sorry, dude.

cute stuff. come summer, which equals tons of time off for me, i will probably start blogging and posting about things i want. all of those outfits are very cute and look comfy. you've got style, you just need the time to get out there and find the things you like. i also know you have style because lola does and you're her personal shopper!
