Spring Breeze, Summer Shine

Posted by Cathy at 10:54 AM 3 comments
Took my last final yesterday at 8 a.m! Waking up today and not having to worry about anything being due, going to any classes and taking any test, that feeling is amazing! Looking out the window and seeing the beautiful sunshine just adds to it. BUT! No one told me how windy it was today...


I have on a Celia Birtwell dress with a black stretch belt to give it some shape. The sleeves on the dress is long and has a stretch around my wrist, so I just pulled it up and made it look a little more modern with a twist of peasant top style.

THANK YOU XIXI for taking my pictures outside..but I had to post the pictures I took myself inside only because it was way too sunny and my dress was flying around everywhere. I am embarrassed to say that my dress flew up while she was taking a picture!

As windy as it is out there I grabbed the bottom of my dressed and continued to walk down the street. Oh! going to Boston to visit a good friend tomorrow, I'll take some pictures and try to post soon!

From Paris to USA

Posted by Cathy at 10:18 PM 8 comments
This is the result of studying for my two finals tonight, a list of cravings I am having from www.axparisusa.com This site is my new rage! They have cute dresses and tops for a reasonable price, anywhere from 16-70. It is mainly in the $30 range for dresses, now that is a steal! Here are a couple of my favorite dresses:
This Square Shoulder Dress is only $36.00 Besides the unique shoulders the zipper in the back is especially sexy. Pair this dress is an obi belt for a feminine touch and a round closed toe shoe to add a military look and you've got a dress outfit for a night out on the town!
This is another favorite of mine: Lace Panel Dress. This one is also $36.oo It would be a great day time look with a pair of silver ballet flats and a black blazer with some rolled up sleeves. It will keep it a soft and sweet look with a bit of mystery. For a night out? Lose the jacket, add a knotted pearl necklace and trade in your flats for some strappy heel.

The left rose petal strapless dress is $70. It may seem a little pricey at first but the detail is amazing. The right, White multi lead skirt, takes a different adaptation of those 2-in-1 dresses we see everywhere. This dress is also $36. I love that leafy look. It's so fun to wear.

Alright guys, this post is a little late since I wanted to put it up yesterday but forgot my camera at my place when I left. Anyways this is just another way of my procrastinating before studying for me 8 a.m final tomorrow.
Unlike today, yesterday was bright and sunny so I thought I would take advantage of it while it lasted (good thing because it cloudy and raining today). Ignore my red face, I was baking cookies and fudge and it got a little hot in my apartment.


I just wanted to give a close up of my shoes and accessories: 1) I forget I have these shoes since they are hidden behind my closet so it's like buried treasure 2) I love the watch (something my boyfriend picked out and got me)

HELLO!

Posted by Cathy at 11:19 AM 0 comments
I decided to start my own blog after following Elaine, you can follow her blog here clothed much.

A little about me? As you can see from my side bar I am a Penn State student graduating this fall (so excited AND sad). I am majoring in Hotel, Restaurant, & Institutional Management, basically I just LOVE people. I don't have much in my closet or in my bank account, but I try to make due. I love how these bloggers here publish their style and each one is so different. That is why I decided to start mine, plus I think it would be fun to see my own outfits.

My style is eclectic. I vary each day from prep to rock n roller. I am also a college student running to classes and "activities" (I mean, I do go to Penn State), so I do have my bum days.

I'll put up my first outfit soon you guys, once I find my camera in these drawers...
