Layering Necklaces
 |
| Shoes: AE Skirt: Mossimo, $6 from Plato's Closet |
I've been learning how to layer necklaces. This is a great trick because you can feel like you have new jewelry just by being creative with what you already own.

Neon Coral and Dark Blue
Things I can't get enough of recently:
hi low skirts and maxi skirts,
bright colors,
and anything that remotely looks like my engagement ring.
 |
| Top: Express, $10 at Rugged Wearhouse Skirt: Lauren Conrad, $10 at Plato's Closet |
 |

I think this is the same skirt. It was originally $58, but is now on sale for $29.
So I got my skirt for about 85% off then!
Purple Hi Low Skirt
I'm in love with this skirt. I'm tempted to wear it every day.
Here are two ways I wore the skirt. Which one do you like best?
Here are two ways I wore the skirt. Which one do you like best?
Turquoise and Navy
 |
| Top: New York and Company, $3 from Goodwill Scarf: $6 at Uptown Cheapskate Leather Belt: $10 from a friend's moving sale |
You're welcome for my awkward face. I hope you get a good laugh at it.
I had a lot of fun putting this outfit together because the scarf contains both the turquoise from my top and the navy blue from my shorts.
Statement Earrings
 |
| Shoes, shirt, earrings, bracelet: AE capris: Refuge ($12 at Uptown Cheapskate) |
When all else fails and I feel like I have nothing to wear (a lie, of course; I have lots of clothes), a pair of statement earrings like these is a great outfit-saver.
I got these for less than $10 at A.E.
Earthy Hues plus Blue
I threw this outfit together quickly and loved the earthy theme I came up with. Of course, I love color, so an all-neutral outfit was a little out of the question.
Here is a better look at my necklace, which I got from Uptown Cheapskate for about $5.

Pink denim
I got these pink crops from American Eagle with a 60% off employee discount. I snagged this Charlotte Russe shirt from a friend when she was cleaning out her closet, and these shoes I got from Goodwill. I hardly ever wear these shoes, but they were the perfect match with this outfit. I'm glad I didn't give them back to Goodwill the last time I cleaned out my closet!
Faux Silk with Embellishments
I got this 100% Polyester shirt from Uptown Cheapskate for $12. It is Express brand, and I'm guessing it was originally about $40. The embellishments on it are beautiful. I wore outfits similar to these two below to both church and work.
This shirt is an XS when normally I wear a Small. Even then, it is very loose on me. To help give me a figure again, I played around with tucking it in and wearing a belt with it. Which of the two options do you prefer?

Marble Nails
Have You Tried Marble Nails Yet?
When I discovered marble nails, I was immediately addicted. There are some great tutorials out there, so I won't make another one. All you need is two colors of polish, a toothpick, a small container, some tape or vaseline, and some water. It takes a while to get the hang of it, and sometimes certain polishes aren't cut out for creating the right effect. So you may end up trying 15 times to polish your first nail.
