Day 12--August 19, 2011

Shirt: Present from my parents; they went to New Zealand for their 25th wedding anniversary

Shorts: Simply Basic; very, very old soccer shorts (from what I can tell Simply Basic is a Walmart brand).

Shoes: my SAS brown loafers

I changed out of my repeat outfit when we got home from Kansas about 12 noon on Friday into this. I spent the afternoon packing and climbing through the barn looking for stuff for my apartment. I got dir-ty! This shirt has a really high collar and I didn't want to wear it to school, so I wore it on my last day home!

Fashion Inspiration #1

When you read the words “The Parent Trap” what comes to mind? Lindsay Lohan before she was crazy right?

Well not for me. What comes to my mind is this…

The 1961 version of The Parent Trap starring Hayley Mills! I love, love, love this version of the film. It’s so innocent and playful. It has a carefree and refreshing nature that the LiLo version doesn’t.

It’s not surprising that I also love the fashion in this film. I found a lovely inspiration board based on this version of the film on DesignSponge ages ago. I’m excited to share it with you all now.

Check out the loveliness…

It makes me want school even less. (5 more days! Goodness!)

So enjoy your last days of summer with this board and I’ll be back soon!

Day 8--August 15, 2011

Shirt: Church Youth Group shirt for Summer 2009 (the youth pastor always makes a new shirt every summer to memorialize our summer "theme"); it's Spiderman-themed. That black smudge you see on the right of my shirt in the photo is actually a spider

Pants: Old Navy jean shorts; you can't see it well, but there are rainbow stripes on the front pockets

Shoes: the brown loafers I wear to work (Sorry I tried to get my mom to get them in the pic, but no dice).

I really like these shorts, but I'm pretty meh about the shirt.

Today I have been packing for school! I went to church at noon to have lunch with my mom, then came home and napped. There will be a post detailing my clothes for school coming shortly!

Blogspot Bonus: The first time I ever wore this shirt around my house, my mom starts FREAKING OUT when I came into the kitchen for breakfast. Turns out she thought the spider on my shirt was a real one....I now bring this story up every time I wear this shirt, including today. I'm such a good daughter. : )
