Look of the Day: Pop It, Lock It, Polka-Dot-It

Tonight my Mom took Casey, and I out for Casey's birthday. SO FUN! We went to Flemmings for their 5 for 6 to 7 Happy hour. Really this Happy Hour is AMAZING! If you have a Flemmings by you, you need to check it out.
I have been waiting to rock stripes and polka dots since the whole mixed pattern trend started, and today I finally gave it a go. Let me just say, for spending less then $20.00 on this outfit I was thoroughly impressed. The skirt was from Forever 21 and was just under $7.00, my $9.00 shirt was from H&M , and my Nine West shoes are over 4 years old. This mix of pairing not so wallet breaking pieces together had a huge effect!

Sometimes old shoes are the best.
My headband was given to me from my Mom for Easter, H&M top (similar at F21 and Kolhs), Forever 21 skirt (similar ASOS , F21 and Vs Pink) old Nine West Shoes.
The Flemmings staff sent Casey home with a very nice Birthday treat! SO cute!
Almost as sweet as my mom footing the bill and DDing for us! XoXo

Thank you Mom for the fabulous dinner, drinks and company!

  4. I've been wanting to mix prints for a while. But I haven't tried. I thought it'd look silly on a normal person. But you rocked it!
