In My Closet | Pink and Navy

I’ve always struggled with wearing shorts. Finding the right length and fit and then just being comfortable in them. I have a hard time feeling put together when I wear shorts. I have always admired people who put them on with more than a t-shirt, great jewelry and even heels (my younger sister does this really well). This is my ‘light’ attempt at ‘dressing up’ a pair of shorts (in a color I’ve never worn!!).

Shirt | Marshalls
Shorts | GAP  (outlet mall)
Sandals | Target
Watch | Viscid (Only I didn’t have to pay the Anthro price! Thanks Jess!!)

The shirt I scored for only $10! It’s a really pretty material too, two thin layers. Love stripes!

In My Closet | Chambray and Pleats

I love fashion. I mean, really love fashion. I seriously considered going into fashion design after high school or something fashion related. I’ve made a few things for myself over the years…some cute, some not so successful. I love watching Project Runway too and during every season, I get the itch to sew or design or sign up for classes. Well, I haven’t designed or created anything…yet…but I am pushing myself to ‘design’ with what I have in my own closet.

Chambray shirt | Old Navy
Pleated skirt | Merona (Similar)
Sandals | City Classified from Make Me Chic
Bracelets | World Market

I have a Pinterest board dedicated to looks and styles that I like and would like to experiment with, but I also wanted to create my own virtual closet. I have too many mornings where I stand in my closet thinking I have nothing to wear or feeling uninspired. Hopefully doing this will solve that problem. Granted, I don’t ‘dress’ up everyday…I mean I have a 1 year old who likes to play in the mud…some clothes just don’t mix with mud.
