I wanna be where your heart is home


Yup, I still have photos left over from Hawaii! Thank goodness, since my camera situation is kind of a bummer right now. Red hair pictures will have to wait!
I found this top at a little shop/tourist trap in Kihei, and I couldn't figure out if it was amazingly tacky or just amazing. Either way was okay with me. It had the perfect v-neck and the perfect short sleeves (I loathe most t-shirt sleeves. I want to murder whoever invented cap-sleeve t-shirts). The print reminded me of a vintage Hawaiian shirt too, so all aspects considered, it was a must-buy.

I'm interested to see how red hair effects how I dress. Or if it will change how I dress at all. So far I've been just rocking t-shirts and jeans for comfy days at work. I've decide that unless I'm feeling extremely proactive, I'm not going to "dress-up" for work. Not that I consider my usual outfits "dressing up" but they certainly aren't geared towards a 10 hour day in front of a computer. I'm far too lazy/low maintenance for such things. When I was in high school I would wake up like 15 minutes before I had to be out the door. I basically brushed my teeth and put on jeans and a tshirt and my skater shoes and left without looking in the mirror. I should find some "vintage" pictures of me in high school. It could be a fun trip down memory lane!

As always love it lol!

I love your hair! I feel the same way about work, jeans and a tee perfect other wise if you wear a skirt it'll be all wrinkled from sitting all day in front of a computer hahahha.

Jessica said...

Everytime you wear that skirt I kind of swoon. It always looks great no matter what you pair it with.

P.S. You should buy the F21 shoes! They are seriously my best shoe buy ever. Cheap AND comfortable.

alya said...

I like how you called it amazingly tacky when clearly you should have said - what for it - delightfully tacky. Oh, goodness, I do entertain myself...

And death to cap sleeves, yes. I hate them so much...

Midwest Mayhem said...

I'm excited to see how you'll look with red hair. It definitely effects how I dress in the sense that certain colors just don't look right with my hair.

Stephanie said...

this top is so fun. it makes me want to go on vaction and escape the raining weather here in the bay area. And this may be the 4tg or 5th time Ive said this, but that skirt is amazing

Orchid Grey said...

I love this outfit on you, the colors are beautiful! I'm sorry to hear about your camera dilemma, I'm dreading the day mine bites the dust (knock on wood). It sounds like we had very similar styles in high school (except I refused to brush my hair). Maybe the delightful dozen can have a vintage "not so delightful" high school flash-back day! haha!
