Day 29- A Holiday Celebration

What I'm wearing: Loft sweater, J.Crew dress, Gap tee, Gap tights, Kelly and Katie flats via DSW, Forever 21 belt

I hope everyone had a very merry and relaxing Christmas! I was absolutely spoiled this year with great presents, lots of food, and abundant time with family. I'll be putting together a Christmas post soon, but first I want to finish up my 30 for 30! I'm officially done but am a little behind on posting. This outfit was what I wore for my little holiday celebration with the boyfriend. We exchanged gifts (I got The Fashion File by Janie Bryant and a DIAMOND bracelet! Like I said, I was TOTALLY spoiled!!) and then planned to make a gingerbread/Rice Krispie house. Then we decided to be lazy and just made peanut butter cookies instead and hung around with my family and played board games. I'd be lying if I told you I wore this outfit the whole time though; eventually the tights started to bug me, so I took off the dress and put on jeans. I also realize after looking at these pictures that my tights were on completely crooked...oops. I guess next time I'll know to be a little more careful when I'm wearing ribbed tights where you can see the lines. Well its officially nap time; I've been up since 6:30 catching the good post-Christmas sales at the mall! Yay for my shopping ban being over!

Days 28 & 29-Functional vs. Fashionable

MIA blogger alert! I ended up moving into my apartment four days earlier than planned, so the last week has been spent packing and unpacking, mostly while wearing workout attire and looking the opposite of stylish. Therefore, I am STILL not done with my 30 for 30 challenge. I think I'm about to hold the record for the longest it has taken anyone to complete it.

What I'm wearing: Target dress, Merona sandals via Target, H&M flower pin, Vintage earrings via Talk of the Town

What I'm wearing: Gap tee, Gap Always Skinny jeans, Forever 21 cardigan, Merona sandals via Target, Forever 21 green eyelet headband

So I realize that these pictures definitely aren't high quality, but I'm still adjusting to the move and trying to figure out how to proceed in terms of outfit pictures. I had gotten used to my mom taking my pictures everyday and really don't want to have to revert back to a self-timer. I'm hoping I come up with a good solution soon; until then, I hope you can tolerate some possible sub-par pictures. As for the outfits, they aren't my most creative, but they were practical for what I was doing on those days. Sometimes functionality wins out over fashion.
