My perfect imperfections

If a man every said I "love your curves and all your edges, all your perfect imperfections," you should probably marry that man. If you haven't guessed by now, that is me quoting one of my favorite artist ever, John Legend. I love that man and I love the words he write, Chrissy Teigen you are one lucky lady!!

The reason I bring that up is because my handsome boyfriend has inspired this post. The other day I asked him to snap some pictures of my outfit before we headed off to work, and let me tell you... we are not morning people. 8:30 am is way too early... these pictures are proof of that! But then he brought up a good point... most bloggers share the best pictures, the picture perfect best type of pictures and he just asked me why not show my imperfect pictures? So I thought why not? 

Today I'm sharing my top five perfect imperfections. We all have them and its always a love/hate type of relationship with them. And as they say, once you've accepted your flaws no one can use them against you or you can think like Beyonce every morning, "I woke up like this... flawless!" :) I hope this helps you guys get to know me a little better. 

My Perfect Imperfections:

1) My hair! I have the finest, thinest hair ever. I'm sure a new born baby has more hair on their heads then I do! But I've grown to love it and appreciate that I have my hair. Gotta count your blessings.

2) My skinny legs... I've tried everything to gain some weight there and it is just nearly impossible! My friends call them chopsticks.... -_- But the plus side is that they look toned all the time!

3) I worry all the time. I take prepare for the worst, hope for the best to the extreme. But I am learning every day that worrying is normal, worrying all the time not so much. When I get a little stressed, I go on a run or take some breathers. I am getting better every day! :)

4) The size of my forehead/head period.  My brother in law likes to tell me my head size is extra large... I say its to hold the size of my large brain! :)

5) I'm independent, a little too much sometimes. I like to take care of myself and spoil myself and sometimes this irritates my boyfriend. He considers me stubborn and I agree. I just don't like feeling like I can't do it myself.

This last picture cracks me up, hopefully it brings you a chuckle too! I look crazy!

Celebrity Inspiration: Kourtney Kardashian

Out of all the Kardashians, I think the true fashion icon is Kourtney Kardashian! She takes it up a notch and wears whatever she feels like, whenever she feels like. Anything from sneakers to high heels, to head accessories to mismatched prints. She pulls it off so well.

My Threads: Skirt (Forever 21) || Top (Express) || Sandals (Nordstroms Rack)

And now I'm off to pack my clothes for the Justin Timberlake & JayZ concert!! :) Follow me on Instagram to see pictures! 

xoxo Have a wonderful week dolls!

Lazy Saturday

I didn't think I'd get to post today simply for the fact the weather is completely unpredictable. I was really excited when I saw sun shining through my window this morning but right before I wanted to take my pictures, it poured! It was raining hard and windy on top of that... It finally broke for a maybe half an hour so I rushed to my deck and took these as fast as I could! It definitely made for an interesting beginning to my Saturday. :)

 Entire outfit was purchased at Target on sale. :)

 I'm counting down the days til summer comes! :) Thanks for stopping by.

Re-vamping the old...

It's amazing what you can find when you do a little spring cleaning... This entire outfit was put together from pieces that I thought I lost but ended up in the back of the closet.

Outfit Details| Dress: Forever 21 | Sweater: Fred Meyer's | Waist Belt: Forever 21| Ballet Flats: Hot Topic (old)| Necklace : Forever 21| Anklet : Macy's|

I hate those days when you stand and stare into your closet and feel like you have absolutely no clothes, when there is a closet full of clothes staring back at you. That was probably the reason I felt the need to search high and low, front and back in my closet to find pieces to re-vamp. When in doubt, use your old pieces in new ways. :)

My entire outfit was purchased at least 2 summers ago, so I'm not sure if I can find the pieces again. But everyone has a cute summer dress they can pair with a sweater! Who says we can't wear dresses in the winter?? xoxo

Thanks for stopping by! I really appreciate it. xoxo

Shoe addict in the making..

Wow! Has January been a busy month or what? So many celebrations and birthdays! Happy birthday to all my January babies! :) 

I haven't had much luck with shoes off the site JustFab, but for some reason the last three pairs I've bought have been fantastic and completely true to the picture. Today's shoe of the day is "Hiral" in black. The gold details is what attracted me to it and man oh man are these shoes comfortable! I love a great pair of heels that I can wear all day and not have them killing my feet, so here is my out of the day!
