for the love of stripes

yesterday was my attempt at fashion post #2.
i read somewhere that you're not supposed to do fashion posts if you're not a fashion blog.
but who really makes the rules anyways?
it's too much fun pretending to be a model for an hour or so.
so i'm sure you've noticed that stripes have become very popular lately.
unfortuantely, i own very few striped items.
the one in this outfit was actually adopted from my mom's closet.
oops mom, i'm sorry, i know you hate it when i do that!
but really, what are daughters for?
(i'm pretty sure i pointed it out in the store anyways.)
so really, it's half mine! ;)

sweater: francesca's
shirt: downeast basics
leggings: downeast basics
boots: wild diva (amazon.com)
belt + accessories: forever21
sunglasses: coach

this was also my first attempt at red lipstick.
i think i like...

              something that i've learned from other blogs is to buy skinny belts and tie them around your waist.

i hope everyone has a fantastic week!
hopefully i will be able to find some free time to come back and post...

  8. Why can't you do fashion posts if you're not a fashion blog? That's just silly. It's your blog, you can do what you want!

    Gorgeous photos. You look great in red lipstick!

  20. Приветики! Хотелось бы открыть парикмахерскую, ищу любую полезную информацию для написания бизнес плана. Может у кого-то есть опыт в таком бизнесе? Сейчас большой выбор оборудования для парикмахерских и салонов красоты. Выбираю между компаниями Scraber.com.ua, Rs-sonic.com.ua, Beauty-combine.com.ua, Массаж-Сервис, магазин Венко .В таком количестве информации самой разобраться тяжело( Скажите где дешево купить резинка на мойку парикмахерскую?
