My Birthday!

Since my Birthday was this past weekend I thought I would post a few of the things on my wish list.. I asked for Lowe's gift cards instead since the house projects are more important at the moment.

I could really go for some mint shorts

My style

I am a little chunky and most days I don't have time to do my hair or my make up, but I had an light bulb moment this weekend. I don't have to be a jeans and t-shirt girl just because I'm not thin. I can wear cute/stylish stuff. So I had to get an outfit for a wedding coming up, I didn't go my traditional solid colored dress and black pumps. I stepped out of my comfort zone and came out with a super cute outfit and a new shirt for myself. 

I got these on clearance from Macy's for $9.99!

Macy's $28

This is not the exact dress I got, it is very similar and in this same color
It's from Deb for around $25 on clearance

It's not the best outfit ever but I am proud of stepping outside of my box a little with a lace dress that is a high low dress. I will be sure to post a picture of myself in the dress! Now I need to figure out how to do my hair!

I am dying for some floral pants like these, do you think I could pull them off?

Mod Cloth $67.99 

How do you dress? Stylish? Comfortable? Are you scared to try new things?
