Embracing my inner California girl, I threw on a pair of booties and short shorts for a hot day in Michigan. The weather was not too hot for me though (obviously). After all, I did wear a black sweater! (The silk camisole was very airy though, so that balanced my outfit out; plus, I was comfortable in and out of shade all day.)
The booties that I am wearing were purchased from Sears a couple of years ago. This had to be the, say, third time I even really wore them? I have no idea how come I did not put these booties into good play, but I for sure am going to this upcoming fall! I'm probably digging these more because (1) my style continues to grow and change, and (2) I can envision the pieces in my closet that would work well with these booties more so now compared to when I first bought them.
This entire outfit is pretty much how I start to transition into fall-wear. I keep certain things such as shorts and breezy tops in rotation because the weather is still pretty hot. However, sweaters get unpacked. (Although I never officially put them away. Eh.) They're perfect for those balmy, late-summer nights. Another thing that comes into play are booties! They are key to my summer to fall clothes transition. The amount of times that they can be worn is re-dunk-u-lous.
I have no idea how fashion bloggers narrow all of their posts down to, like, three/four photos. It's impossible for me! "Oh my gosh! I don't look stupid in that one; I must post it!" is what I do when reviewing all of the photos that I (or someone else) took [of me]. As a female, you probably understand me, no? No...it's just me, okay. That's cool, too. (Not really; I'm just trying to comfort my hurt ego.)
Does an overload of photos bother y'all? I actually don't mind them because this blog is sort of like my journal. I enjoy seeing good photos of myself (no matter how grainy they may be -- I honestly need a better camera), so I feel as if I am going to continue doing a photo overhaul. But don't worry! I hardly get a ton of good photos of myself, so don't worry about it being too much. (Haha!)
Saturday is now upon us, and I could not be any more happier. This week has been trying. If it was not a ridiculous amount of homework, then it was people irritating me for certain reasons that I'd rather be unsaid. Once again: I am extremely happy that the weekend is here. {If only it could be extended for a few more days.} Are you all happy? What are some plans that y'all have? Sleeping in, going to the gym and hanging out with my family are two of my main goals. Funny how sleeping is something that I have to set a goal for...hahaha. That's the life of a student for you.
On a different note, I love the two guys a part of Saturday Tunes today: Daughtry (a band) and Bruno Mars (single artist). Are they familiar to you? I hope so! If not, then hey, at least you are going to find two amazing artists to listen to from now on. You may thank me later. {Harhar.} I first began to listen to Daughtry when I heard his song 'It's Not Over' and 'What About Now'. Please do yourself a favor and go listen to them right now. That means stop reading this post, go to Youtube, listen to the song, and then return to this post.
.......
I see that you're back. Did you like them? Amazing, right!? Deviating from Daughtry, let's chat about Mr. Mars. Bruno Mars is the next artist that I am completely and utterly infatuated with. {Maybe to the point of being labeled as a stalker...?} He is one talented guy that also has gracious genes. If you have never heard of Bruno until now, then please share what planet you have been living on because it obviously has not been Earth. Get hip. His newest album (or not because it came out in 2012) 'Unorthodox Jukebox' has stolen my heart from the very moment it was released. Natalieeeeeeeee! {I know that that song is about....well, nothing good, but I wish that my name was Natalie so that I could admit that I stole Bruno's money. Harhar. Treasure (my friend is so dang lucky) would suffice as well.}
