Black and blue

Maurices top; Target skirt; Banana Republic belt; Payless flats; American Eagle necklace.

I spent this past weekend in Arizona looking at apartments. The good news is, I found an amazing one, and therefore won't be homeless in about a month. The bad news is, it turns out moving is expensive. I also don't own a stick of furniture so it'll definitely be interesting until I start getting regular paychecks.

Any tips from those of you already living in the real world? I've been checking out Ikea and Craigslist some so far (I never wanted to leave the Ikea we went in this weekend).

Fourth of July

11/30 Charlotte Russe shirt; Thrifted scarf (worn as belt); Target skirt and flats.

Happy 4th of July! I'd love to be able to say that I spent my holiday weekend doing fun things, but for the most part I spent it chained to my desk, reading about derivatives and hedging (jealous of my life much?). I do plan on at least catching a fireworks show though.

Anyway, I hope you have a fantastic holiday (or if it isn't a holiday for you, a fantastic day in general), and if you live in a dry area like I do, please pretty please be careful when shooting off fireworks!

The color green, and other foreign concepts

1/30 Thrifted top, belt and bag; Target skirt; Payless sandals

First things first: HOLY CRAP LOOK HOW GREEN IT IS IN TENNESSEE. You have to understand, I'm from New Mexico, which most of the time is varying shades of brown. Things like trees everywhere and (gasp!) moisture in the air are kind of foreign concepts to me.

Moving on, this is my first 30 for 30 outfit, but seeing as I'm still on my way back home from vacation, I won't have my 30 items posted until tomorrow or so. Which means I should probably finish figuring out what those items are...

Memorial Day

Kohl's t-shirt; Target skirt; Thrifted shoes.

There's just something about blue flats...I'm pretty sure everyone should own a pair. You can't even consider this particular shade of blue a neutral, but somehow they go with everything.

Anyway, I hope you had a fantastic Memorial Day weekend! I spend it studying (surprise, surprise), but I also squeezed in a movie (The Hangover 2), and as many ribs, hotdogs and hamburgers (Don't you love summer food?) as I could.

Pink, grey, and blue.

Maurices t-shirt; Thrifted scarf; Target skirt; Wet Seal belt; Payless flats.

I'm gonna keep this post short and sweet tonight because I'm exhausted. I spent 9 hours today working on a group project due tomorrow and then another hour tutoring MBA students. (I taught them how to balance). Pretty much my Thursday night "networking" at the bar cannot come soon enough.

In outfit-related news, I really liked all the springy colors in this outfit! And I seriously have an addition to buying these square scarves at Savers (it was windy so the first picture is the only one were it's laying correctly). See also here, here and here; and there's at least 7 or 8 more that haven't debuted on the blog yet. I'm sure there's a limit to how many a person should own, but when they're only a dollar or two it's pretty hard to resist.

And I said this would be short so I'm stopping now. My bed is definitely calling my name.

Here in this diary

Wet Seal sweater and boots; Target skirt; American Apparel tights; Scarf borrowed from the little bro

Everyone, I'm pleased to introduce pictures from my new camera. Pictures from my new camera, this is everyone.

I got a shiny new PowerShot for Christmas, and so I no longer have to use borrowed cameras to take my outfit pictures! This is very exciting, also because I need to do a better job of documenting my life. That's one of the reasons that I started this blog to begin with, because I realized the only pictures taken the whole time I've been in college are ones tagged on facebook, and while I used to always keep a diary, that eventually stopped around my junior year.

Anyway, it's nice to have a new medium to be able to look back on and not only see what I was wearing, but where I was in my life.
