Dolman Sleeves & Cut Outs

{source: emmarosebee on Instagram}

I have been thinking a lot about this 👆🏻recently.

It is so easy to get caught up in the day-to-day stress 

& focus in on the things we don't have instead of being thankful for the things we do.

This has been weighing on me as I work with very expensive luxury items on a daily basis.

So important.

To bring it around to some fashion:

I am thankful for the trip to Thailand that allowed me to purchase 

this sweet shirt with dolman sleeves, which became a big inspiration behind 

my Product Development project last semester.

Also love these cut out booties from the Universal Thread line at Target

& the fact that I get to pair it with the Louis Vuitton bag of my dreams.

What I Wore: glasses- Bonlook, lips- Trestique "English Rose" via Ipsy, necklace- gift from Nonna and Mom, top- from a market in Bangkok, Thailand, jeans- Loft, booties- Universal Thread @ Target, bag- Louis Vuitton 

In conclusion, 

don't forget to take a little step back 

& remember when you wanted all you currently have.

as a nation we don't wear enough fringe

I agree Who What Wear, I'll do my part in my fringe Anthropologie top:

We could take this fringe game to the next level with this YSL fringe clutch 

that I listed at work {A Second Chance} last week, 

which apparently sold already!

striped friends & reflections...

I always seem to catch the striped friends 

(that is what I call our brindle bulldog Maggie + our tabby cat Arnold)

hanging out together:

Like when I get out of the shower:

She looks like she is yelling at me like, "Mom this is a private striped friends hang out!"

If I wear stripes does that make me part of the club?!

 What I Wore: glasses- Rivet & Sway, lips- Wet n Wild Fergie "V.I.Pink", necklace- gift from my hubby from Tiffany's, t-shirt & jeans- Gap, cardigan- Forever 21, flats- vintage

It's been a few months since I first sent away a bunch of my glasses to get 

new prescription lenses in them from LensesRx.

I do have some reflections on the prescriptions as I have started to wear the glasses...

Mainly that they are SO REFLECTIVE.

I know I know I didn't "upgrade" to get the Anti-Reflective coating on them, 

it was an extra $29.95 a pair!

I went the cheaper route and now my selfies are mirrors for the world around me. 

I guess you live and learn. 

I love the services LensesRx offers and I still think it is a great deal,

 but with the anti-reflective charge x2 the cost of the other lenses 

and you own as many glasses as I do it's hard to splurge.

 When Charlie tells me to make the bed in the morning 

but there is a very sleepy striped friend who is not ready to get up yet...
