Wardrobe Remix

I've not been feeling very well these past couple of days, but I decided upon submitting a last-minute entry to Chictopia/Teen Vogue's Wardrobe Remix contest.

Outfit 1:

Black dress - Volcom, white dress - Target, necklace - made by me, belt - vintage, shoes - Kohl's

So this is what I actually wore today. I had my classes in the city, and while I was in my second class my sandals broke! Luckily, it's an art school with a variety of materials that can be used to reattach such items. I wouldn't have worn these if it weren't for pesky blisters from wearing too-thin socks with my Doc Martens! Surprisingly enough, I think the extra layer kept me cool throughout the day. It's gross, but normally I sweat a lot when I wear belts over things. Not today!

Shirt - Olive and Olivia, necklace - thrift, dress worn as skirt - Target, bracelets - antique/gift, shoes - Aldo

This is probably one of my favorite outfits that I've put together. Unfortunately, it's much too hot for such a shirt, so I'll have to wait until it cools down to repeat this combination. And believe me, expect to see this again. I see this working well for a late-summer night.

Necklaces - antique, dress - Target, cuff - antique, shoes - Keds

Sometimes simplicity is awesome in its own. I must admit, my blisters made these shoes very uncomfortable to wear, but I could see myself wearing this on a day where it's too hot to wear anything complicated... everyday in my mind!

Anyway, my classes are going well. I've actually encountered a fellow blogger in one of my classes, which I think is awesome! I'm so excited to see what else this program will bring!

  1. I love how you remixed this dress, especially the first way. I never would've thought to wear a t-shirt dress over the white dress.

    PS - I picked you as one of my 10 favorite bloggers in the We Heart Blogs event. :)

  10. Thanks for all of the outfit inspiration, they're super cute and super fun for Summer, and I guess Fall too by adding a pair of stockings and whatnot.

  14. These pics are awesome! My favorites are the Outfit 2 pics! You probably posted this before, but what kinda camera do you use? And do you edit these photos? My mom might get me a new cam for Christmas, so I want to get advice on which cameras are good. :)

    Love,
