purse

I was at a work event the other day and stumbled onto a couch filled with vintage handbags. It was amazing how quickly I picked up this handbag and decided that it needed to be mine. I don't really find things when I go shopping that I like (sans everything at Anthropologie/J. Crew) and rarely buy them instantly. I almost forgot what retail therapy felt like. I tend to just buy a burrito from Taco Bell and relish my meal.
When Life Gives You Handbags

I was at a work event the other day and stumbled onto a couch filled with vintage handbags. It was amazing how quickly I picked up this handbag and decided that it needed to be mine. I don't really find things when I go shopping that I like (sans everything at Anthropologie/J. Crew) and rarely buy them instantly. I almost forgot what retail therapy felt like. I tend to just buy a burrito from Taco Bell and relish my meal.

Whenever I wear this dress I always think of Michael Jackson's Wanna Be Startin' Something where he sings, "You're a vegetable, you're a vegetableee" Silly, I know but I just get such a kick out of this dress.

I first saw this dress on ModCloth ages ago but to my dismay they discontinued the style. Over the summer ModCloth brought it back for $120, wayyyyy over my dress budget. As fate would have it, I ended up finding the dress on eBay for half of Modcloth's price. Still expensive, but an eBay seller accepted my final offer and this dress was finally happily in my closet.







Mallory and I basically recreated the beginning of Cabin in the Woods searching for this art installation by Eboni Patterson for Open Spaces (A KC arts experience).


This blue swimming pool is filled with flowers, candles, and teddy bears. Its truly a sight to be seen. Open Spaces ends on October 28 so make sure you make it out to Swope Park.

Back to outfit details, I bought these SJP Doris D'orsay pumps for my birthday and they are so cute! This is the first time I've broken them out on the blog despite getting them in April.




I feel like it has been a bit since I've posted an outfit on the blog. Good news! I've been shooting a lot of content these past couple of weeks and I'm so excited to share it with you!
Aside from the blog life, work and grad school keep me busy, but I am managing it much better than I did in the summer. I finished international business and am now taking a stats class. I am learning how to balance my work, school, and personal life a lot better these days finding time to catch a movie, see my friends, and volunteer. I'm grateful to learn how to manage my schedule earlier in life although at times in can be frustrating.
I feel like I keep blinking and the months are changing I can't believe November will be here in just a mere week and gingerbread lattes soon! I have held October dearly in my heart friends. I hope you have too.

I always see neat, "What's In My Bag" pictures, so I thought I would do my own. I've had this Betsey Johnson purse for quite sometime, and it never fails me. Usually I keep throwing stuff in it, and never look back. This was all the stuff in my purse today! I didn't add anything extra to make me look cooler, I probably should have because I look like a candy obsessed nerd, but this is what I had.
- Union Jack Wallet
- The Dorm Room Diet
- Nail File
- Lanyard/Coach ID holder
- Starbucks "Single of the Week" card
- E.L.F. Mineral Lipstick in Cheerful Cherry
- Dollar bill coin pouch
- Easter candy!
- Haribo Happy Cola Candy
- Perks of Being a Wallflower
- Haribo Twin Cherries
- Notepad
It is so important for me to always carry books. I'd rather be the girl who is reading a book while waiting for something than the one who is engrossed into her phone. All of the candy were gifts from my best friends parents for Easter.!
