Vintage Inspired Florals & Adventure...

Jan 31, 2011


{SWEATER: KIRSH, DRESS: MODCLOTH, BELT: MODCLOTH, TIGHTS: AMERICAN EAGLE,  SHOES: JOE FRESH}

Hello! Hope everyone is having a great start to their week. Hubs and I had an absolutely delightful time photographing this adorable outfit. In no particular order: A) It was freakin' warm enough to wear this outfit, B) I got to hang with my hubby, C) We explored an old train station, and drum-roll please... D) Knowing I could share it with you guys ...aaw!

I just bought these fantastic booties at Joe Fresh for $19, and this adorable dress & belt from ModCloth; all in an effort to bring more fun and whimsy into my wardrobe. I have been working in an office for the past three years as a “Corporate Administrative Manager,” and this past year I have been working from home. Are you yawning yet? Don’t worry. You are not alone! Because so is my closet.

However, I am happy to say that this ends here! I have been craving to get back to my fashion roots, shake things up, and live life with a greater sense of adventure. For me, that means? Adding bits to my wardrobe that inspire fun and whimsy. So, dear readers, when you get dressed this week, remember to add a FUN & unexpected element to your already fabulous outfit; it's certainly my mission this week. Yay! Wishing you all a fashionable & fun-filled week. xx veronika

  30. Wow! You have the best hair and you look so pretty... you remind me a bit of Olivia Wilde! These are lovely photos and the belt is gorgeous with the dress and cardigan: it's unusual and adds such a pretty detail.
