what i wore: because my aunt wants to see it even though i look homeless

i had actually kind of planned on doing an outfit post today because i'm just so enamored with my $5 dress, but once i got home and looked in the mirror at my hair, i really didn't want to as the sight of me may scare small children. but, since my aunt kimberly wanted to see what i was wearing, and mainly how i wore my fancy new sparkly toms, i figured i couldn't let her down. just try to remember that i don't look quite so much like a disheveled, crazy homeless lady all the time.

$5 clearance dress: target (it has great waitress blouse style sleeves, so i can't wait to wear it in the spring), cardigan: i don't remember, leopard shoes: target, sparkly shoes: toms, bullet necklace: dinosaur toes, key necklace: bueno bueno. note about necklaces, i felt a little like mr. t when i put on two necklaces this morning, but since the outfit was plain and those are my two favorite necklaces, i figured it would be okay. i love it when a plan comes together (okay, so not mr. t, but it's still the a-team).

in my defense, my hair looked MUCH better this morning. since it's so long, it's kind of difficult to do much with it, but my one go to style is a low bun to the side which looks pretty good. but of course i had to show the side without the bun. smart move. also, i did not wear two different shoes today. i may be a little crazy, but not that crazy! i wore the leopard print flats to work, but then went to get the toms this afternoon. chris actually bought me the gold herringbone toms i so desperately wanted for christmas, but it turns out i got the dud pair. the right shoe fit perfectly, but the left shoe was bigger in width and length to the point it was actually too big for my foot. so i went today to do a shoe switcheroo, but they didn't have another pair of size 5 gold herringbone toms. i actually wasn't upset though because it meant i got to exchange the dud pair for a glitter pair! so i'd say the mishap ended up working in my favor! tonight chris and i are going out to dinner with pop and my stepmom, so i'm sure you can guess which shoes i'm going to wear!

the hair accessory is of course flojo. she has separation anxiety, so once i got home from work i had to let her come be in the pictures with me, otherwise she'd end up screaming herself hoarse thinking that we wouldn't be together.

so all in all, i'd say it was a pretty schizophrenic day. crazy hair, a parrot on my head and a picture with me wearing two different shoes. i bet people that don't read blog posts and only look at the pictures will think i need help.

how was your thursday?
