Excessive Love

 Usually I'm really self conscious about putting too many pictures of one outfit on my blog, but I chose a lot for this particular blog post because can you really have too many pictures of this slip? I don't think so. Some situations call for excess!

I saw this little ditty on the Free People website and bought it immediately! I have been so excited to wear it and post about it on my blog that I ended up not wearing it at all since I got it in because I wanted it to be perfect! (Ah, blogger problems.) I just couldn't stand it any longer today, and even though I'm only wearing it around my apartment and to environmental science tonight, I'm still so happy in it. That's when you know you've made a smart purchase! 

The slip to me, has a really nice mixture of 1920s and 1990s styles. It reminded me a lot of something Courtney Love would wear, so I decided to wear it more in an edgy 1990s style than a glamorous 1920s style. Though Courtney would probably have opted for ripped hose and Mary Jane shoes, I think the general mood was carried over. 

What do you think of the styling in this outfit? How would you have styled the piece?

Favorites Friday: Favorite UO Brands

Hey everyone! If you've paid any attention at all while reading my blog, you probably already know that I love love love all the Urban stores. However, if I had to pick a favorite store of all time, it would be Urban Outfitters. Urban Outfitters is the perfect store for me because it's so versatile. I definitely have a versatile style. I can't think of one word that defines my style because it's different every time I wake up. Sometimes I wake up and I feel like a hippie, other times I feel punk, classic, romantic, girly, or fill in the blank. I think it's restricting to say that you're this or that when it comes to fashion. I prefer to stay open to all different kinds of looks instead of saying "I'm this, and I shop here only." That's just me though! And that's why I love Urban Outfitters - I can find the perfect blazer, the prettiest dress, the funkiest shoes, the comfiest sweaters, all in one place. :)
I love all the brands at UO, but for favorites Friday I'm focusing on a few I find myself repeatedly coming back to. (Like I don't come back to them all. Who am I kidding?) Anyways, enjoy!
