Cherry Bomb

 On my way to take a walk with Matt and take blog pictures, my camera died! I'm so glad it did. I was originally wearing a totally different outfit that I wasn't that excited about, but it did the trick. So what we ended up doing was going to check out a thrift store while my camera charged, and I found this beautiful vintage dress for only $20! I am so excited about it. I've owned it for a total of two hours, and I can already tell you it's my new favorite dress. I have been craving something cherry red, and this cute floral midi did just the trick! I've also been dying for the perfect button front dress for seriously YEARS. I feel so 90s and so confident in this dress, especially after I paired it with my Doc Marten boots. I absolutely love it when I'm able to find the perfect item thrifting, and for a great price!

Bright

 So much sunshine! Finally! I feel like every blog post I've been writing the past few weeks is some variation of "today sucked, no sunshine, maybe later." It's finally later, and it's gorgeous out! It's still not super warm, but it's a start! I guess you could say the sunshine had inspired my outfit because I normally don't dress this bright. When I woke up though, I just knew it wasn't a black on black kind of day and that I needed a little color! That also made me realize how little of it I have in my wardrobe, which is something I am hoping to change for this summer.

What things are you looking to add to your wardrobe for summer?

Wishlist Wednesday: Red!

Hey guys!
Sorry I've been posting so late into the day. I'm going to try to start creating my posts the day before so I can get them to you in a timely manor. (Except for the outfit posts.) I have been thinking a lot about what to do for this Wishlist Wednesday. I almost decided on doing it on Free People's July catalog, but I did a Free People post last Wednesday! Instead I picked an overall theme, rather than specific items.
When I look into my closet, I see a lot of the same colors. I know this is a common problem for a lot of women - We know what we like, so when a top comes in the color we know we look good in, we purchase it! I have a lot of darker colors in my closet. Navy blue, olive green, black, gray, etc. I've always been told that I look good in red, but never wore it because I think I look too Christmas-y. Don't get me wrong, I've seen plenty of other women pull it off beautifully. Maybe I just have a Christmas-y face? Anyways, I've been craving some more red in my wardrobe! I think it's such a beautiful, fun, rich color, and if I can just get that silly Christmas idea out of my head (it's well on it's way out, don't worry) I think I could be seeing a lot more red in my future.

What colors do you wish you had more of in your closet?
