Look of the Day: Under the Influence

I often blog about people or things that influence my style. One other element that influences my style is traveling. This past summer, after I came back from Beijing, I found myself drawn towards red, royal blues and yellow. Beaded bracelets and (fake) jade jewelry also made their appearance in my outfit. At first glance of this outfit, you may think I was under the influence of alcohol when I picked it out, but in fact it was Vegas that was the influence. While I was there this past weekend I observed Cocktail waitresses, Elvis impersonators, little old lady gambling addicts and showgirls. All of their outfits had me dreaming of feathers, gold Lamé and faux fur. This vintage jumpsuit satisfied my craving for all things Vegas, even if Casey thinks I look like C3PO in it " He excels at that".

I felt ohh soo Ginger from Casino in this outfit.

Looking at all the old pictures of my Grandma may have also influenced this outfit.

Rocking my Mom's vintage romper, an old Fendi purse, and Christian Louboutin heels
I suppose I felt bit reminiscent of C3PO in it.

Copy Cat Style perhaps?

Look of the Day: That's all She Wrote

I am up and out of here to present my Thesis and Research Study. YIPPEEE! Hope you all are having a great day as well....

My work for the past year, so happy I decided to go back to school 2 years ago. I remember I called my Mom crying the first day of class because I was SO nervous to go back.
My pretty pink power point.
I remember my sister called me the first day of Grad School and asked me what I was going to wear... I have no idea what I wore that day but I know I'll never forget this outfit now!
I got this Anthro dress on clearance this past summer, I love the flower details.
When I first bought it Casey told me I looked very "ginger" in it. For some reason I love Sharon Stone as Ginger in the movie Casino, at least I love her the first half of the movie. She had an amazing closet in that movie! The dress I wore here is also one of my "Ginger" dresses lol.Off I go!
