Playing dress up

Sometimes I wake up and think, "Kayla, just throw on some sweats and call it a day."  But then I get up. I open up my closet to lazily pick up those sweats, and I remember why I love to dress up.  I LOVE CLOTHES.  I love mixing and matching and sparkling and pushing the limits so that I always leave my house for school a little unsure if my outfit is too much.  Yeah, sweats are safe.  But I want to take risks.



Plaid button down: J.Crew
Boatneck: J.Crew
Pants: H&M
Flats: Cathy Jean 
Earrings: Forever 21

    I totally know that feeling...so easy to forget how much fun it is to get dressed sometimes, especially when those sweats are just sittin' there...all soft & comfy looking :) But you look SUPER cute sans sweats...love the purple on purple!

    I agree with you about loving clothes. It's the process of putting looks together that's so much fun. Here's to not wearing sweats! Cheers!
