A boy at work today told me that I looked like an extra from an Austin Powers movie. That's what I get for wearing boob ruffles.

Sure is hot out here.

I hate to be that person that discusses the weather, but come on, the temperature outside dictates what we wear. Although its been in the mid 90s outside for days now, the AC at work keeps the building chilly. I've been trying to layer up at work so I can remove them after. How are you dealing with the heat? Love it or leave it?

Off it went! I did the semi spontaneous (okay, with 4 days of back and forth) thing and cut off my hair. If you remember my hair stories, it is not that unusual for me to just "drastically" do something to my hair. I'm excited for all the cute short hair styles to try out! At least it won't be another messy bun like it was with my long hair!

And  a little bit of office colorblocking....

Colors for everyone!

I used to only wear neutral clothing. If I liked it a shirt, it was always going to be bought in the black or grey version. Black is slimming! It goes with everything!

It is super boring all the time.

When I first discovered fashion blogs a year ago (I don't know what took so long), one of the first ones a found was Kendi Everyday, who is no stranger to color. I always admired her easy way of wearing color without it being, "Oh girl, please turn off your shirt". I started buying more and more colorful shirts and learning how to play around with them. My newest addition? This fun polka dot number from The Limited. I'm already playing dress up (in my mind).

Have you been braver than I have been, and wearing colors all along? Or are you more like me and learning slowly?
