Stars and Stripes

Striped dress, $16 / Striped cardigan / Vintage shirt / J.Crew mini skirt / Peeptoe shoes / White shawl / Hair clip accessory / Converse - All Star Flag - Hi - Red/White

Need some stars and stripes in your wardrobe? Well I have got you covered!!!

Now I am not saying wear all of these things at once. That would be taking American pride to a whole new level, but it would be cute to wear one or two patriotic pieces to celebrate this day. I think I am going to opt for a red striped shirt, red moccasins, denim shorts and using a scrap of blue star fabric as a scarf. (But, I can't lie, if i owned that flag cardigan you know I'd be sweating my butt off in this 95 degree weather just to wear it today!!)

Hope everyone is off to barbeque some burgers, relax and enjoy this beautiful summer day.

Happy 4th of July!!!

St Patty's Day

Happy St. Patrick's Day!!

At this time every year I look in my closet and see only about three items of green clothing and wonder why I don't own more. I make a silent resolution to purchase more green and to spice up my closet. Surprisingly enough after last year 's silent promise I actually did go out and buy one new green blouse. Score one for me and branching out!

However in a dream world I could get all of these items and be able to dress like an Irish girl all year round!

Presenting my St. Patty's Day wish list...
