Lines & Dots

This is kind of an odd combination but it works I think.  I love, love, love these shorts that I bought last year in France.  I often have trouble figuring out what to pair them with.

The Arts Festival is this weekend, which I was pretty excited for, but turns out I won't be attending.  I will be in Montana (which is equally exciting).  I will finally have the opportunity to wear the Acne dress I purchased in NYC.  I am definitely looking forward to that.

Casual Thursday

I wore this dress last in the winer, so I was happy to pull it out again in nice weather.  I found it on sale last year at Q Clothing downtown.  I have been on a mission to try to find more boutiques around the city, because I think they are more fun to shop at then big malls.  Last night I went to dinner in Park City (I haven't been up there forever) and it looked like there might be some fun window shopping to be had...

Simply Simplicity

This is the dress that I was so excited to find, here. I paired it with a belt to give it a little more shape, I like it with out a belt too though.

The pasta is my absolute favorite dish ever, which I thought I would share with you.  It is the best fresh pasts dish for summer.  I don't have a recipe, because I kind of just make it up as I go. 

You will need:

7 small heirloom tomatoes 

Lots of basil (to taste)

1 pound of mozzarella 

Olive Oil (to taste)

7 to 14 Garlic Cloves (I like 14!)

Pasta 

Pepper (to taste)

Chop up tomatoes, garlic, mozzarella, and basil (I like to rip the basil with my hands) in a large bowl.  Drizzle olive oil over the top.  Mix in some pepper. Let sit covered for about 2 hours. 

After 2 hours, boil pasta and then mix it in with the tomato sauce.  Add fresh mozzarella and basil if desired.

Drink a glass of red wine along side and you are set! 

Simple.

Biker Shorts

I love these little short-leggings more then anything.  I discovered them last year in New York and have been obsessed ever since.  They are perfect for summer because you can put them on under a dress, not feel too hot, and not show the world what color underwear you have on.  Simply brilliant.  I wore this dress last with a denim jacket, so I thought I would try something different and go for a light cardigan.  

P.S. How do we feel about H&M coming to Fashion Place? I'm not so stoked...

Ahhh the Weekend

I finally bought a pair of white Converse.  I have been craving a pair forever.  I went in to Smiths (my favorite cheap, go-to store for random bits and bobs) and found them on sale!!  Time to put my favorite black bootie heels away, I will be living in these the rest of the summer.  

I had the day off from all three of my jobs today (which I found a bit bizarre) so, after attempting my first Zumba class (ohhh my), I went to the park.  It started raining though, so my adventure ended quickly.

Little Bit of This, Little Bit of That

Having some fun playing with color and prints.  It feels a little bright, but I kind of like it, haha! Also, I bought a full on knit, chunky sweater yesterday...does anyone else find that weird?

These are my Crazy Pants

I went thrifting with a friend the other day and he found these awesome pants!  Unfortunately for him and luckily for me, they didn't fit him.  I couldn't let such awesomeness stay buried in the depths of the D.I., so I took them! I think they are pretty fantastic.  They are a little short, but I think rolling them one time works just fine! Oh! And this is one of the tops I bought in NYC as well.  It is silk and wonderful.

Mountainous Mountains

We have actually had a few days of spring here!  It has been wonderful.  Gabi and I took ourselves on a shopping adventure to celebrate.  I bought this lovely little dress as well as some other spring items.  I love how the back of the dress is longer then the front.  

Have a lovely weekend everyone!  Now that the semester is done...and I think I graduated kind of...I am planing on having an awesome one.

NOT Black.

Oh, well hello everyone! I know I have literally fallen off the face of the blogging planet lately, but I am back! I just started a new job so I can start saving up for when I make my grand move to New York, and it has seriously taken over my life. Im still trying to figure out a good balance between school, my two jobs, friends, love life, and of course blogging!

So, I apologize to all of you wonderful followers and to win back all your love, I give you the gift of a Look of the Day! hahah 

I have to say that I am pretty obsessed with sheer tops lately. I tend to be pretty lazy/gutsy and not wear anything under them except a bra, its kind of freeing actually. Funny enough, the most uncomfortable thing about this outfit for me was the color palate. My favorite color to wear: BLACK. This outfit: NOT black. However, for some reason when I woke up I pulled these things out of the closet and threw them on. Not too bad I hope?
