best of 2011.

2011 has been an incredible year and I can’t believe it’s almost over!  I started this blog just nine months ago and I’m excited to watch its transformation from a distant idea into a continuously inspiring project.  To celebrate, I picked out a few of my favorite outfits of this year.

This year, I was all about remixing and reusing pieces to create new outfits.

I didn’t let working an office job get in the way of my style.

But during the weekend, you could probably find me in a romper.

Come night time, I busted out the leather skirt.

And no matter the year, I will never get tired of a dress with a great bold print.

To everyone who reads, follows, or comments on this blog (or tells me in person!): thank you!  You guys are the reason that I keep doing what I do.  I can’t wait to see what 2012 brings!

retro active.

I snagged this orange A-line skirt on sale at H&M recently.  I usually wear pencil skirts, but the flare and color on this little guy was too fun to pass up.  Topped off with a pair of cat eye sunglasses and I’m feeling all kinds of retro.

holiday baubles.

Christmas may be over, but the holiday festivities definitely continue!  I can’t think of a better way to ring in the new year than with a few rings, some bracelets, and a whole bunch of holiday baubles.  Cheers!
