InVested

What I'm wearing: J.Crew outlet tee, Old Navy vest and skinnies, Ciao Bella boots via DSW, Scarf via SoHo street vendor, Vintage gold cuff bracelet

This was my Thanksgiving day outfit, and it was purposely chosen because it allowed for large amounts of eating. These are my stretchiest jeans with lots of give in the waist, and this vest can hide even the biggest food baby. But beyond it's ability to hide second helpings of broccoli cheese casserole, I also loved the way this outfit looked. I've loved this vest since the day I bought it and wear it almost weekly. The scarf was a last minute addition to my travel bag, but it couldn't have complemented this outfit any better. Here are some other ways I've worn my vest in the past:

Also, I wasn't quite in the mood to take pictures this day, which resulted in some silly outtakes:

1. The stink-eye
2. The ninja

I'm a goof.

What I'm wearing: Target tank dress, Gap cardigan, J.Crew outlet belt, Nine West outlet sandals, Handmade earrings

Now that it has finally started to warm up, I'm ready to bring some of my old summer favorites back into the rotation. This dress was last summer's MVP; there is nothing more versatile than a black cotton dress. It can be dressed up or down, and it is light and breezy for those hot summer days. Here are some of the ways I've worn it previously:

Also just to add a little humor, I've got some extra pictures to share...

The roomie, making fun of my "blog poses". He's got it down...clearly he needs to start a fashion blog.

And a really attractive outtake. I was being directed to swing around the post and just wasn't quite doing it right, according to Alex. It resulted in quite a bit of laughter.
