SEVEN AND EIGHT

Oh, my!

I have been posting away at chictopia/lookbook/tumblr and neglecting my blog;

shame on me. 

I will now attempt to make up for it by shoving two looks into one post here

 if that's alright with you lovely people. and I'm sure it is, because you're so lovely.

:)

I've had this dress for a long time but this is the first time I've worn it. 

It's a precious cotton dress with dainty details and print, I'm just not a huge fan of the color

pink. Ironically, I usually feel the opposite of feminine in it. The bright pastel aquamint hue of

the slingbacks lend a pop of color against the pale pink & neutral tan bag though and

made this sweet frock very wearble on the sticky hot summer days Alabama is all about.

OKAY!

On to the next one..

I found this romper and another like it in a bright tourist-y print and could not resist..

always love for supersoft cotton and I think they're adorably cut with the cinched waist

and puff sleeves. I thrifted the shoes probably a year ago and never put them into action..

until now; they're really fun and comfortable, moon shoes, I say! ^_^

PS I've always hoped it goes without saying - Click images to enlarge.

FIVE

Eek! To all five of my followers, I've been a terrible blogger, I know haha..
I've merely started this thing a few months ago, ideas and all, and I've got backlog like you would not believe; it'll be winter and irrelevant before I get it all posted.. though, I'll tell you right now, Alabama sometimes doesn't know what winter is until mid-December, if then. I'll likely be incorporating a bit of warmer wear far past what's "acceptable"/ I'm all about breaking the rules, though ;)

Anyway, this post made it to chictopia & lookbook but I forgot to add it here for more details

(all items vintage except for necklace-Urban Outfitters)

FOUR

I do adore these vintage boots scored from a thrift outing not too long ago.

Boots, boots, boots. <3

I admit.. I used to think denim on denim looked a bit silly.

but here lately it's grown on me, and somehow two denims

are more exciting than one. I would probably stick to two items 

and make sure they are a nice contrast of shades; 

moral of the story?

denim overload or matchy-matchy denim = Denim Dan.

Yikes.

What's your take on the double denim trend?

Is it a no go, the more the merrier, or ground on which to tread lightly?

comments always welcome :)

TWO

This is my first outfit post. 

It's likely you'll find me in primary colors more than not (especially reds and blues)

While I like experimenting with my style, I am much into classics!

It's always easy to add something a little more eye-catching from there if you wish..

ONE

I've had this for blog far too long doing absolutely nothing. It's time for a post!

I post on chictopia under the name 'girlpanic'. 

If you are unfamiliar with chictopia, it's a site for browsing and sharing styles via photos and

also see what's inspiring other fashion forward ladies (and gentlemen, too.)

You can even browse people by your similar body type (it asks your own when you sign up.)

It sounds cheese, but it's really an inspiring site as far as fashion goes. It's easy to be yourself, experiment with different looks, and get feedback (unlike some similar sites that seem to be stuck in a bit if a rut and also focus a bit more on photography than the style itself.)
I am here, and there, to share my own style and whatever else that is bringing sparkle to my eyes..

Follow me here for ensemble posts.
