Friends and Francais

This weekend I was able to go see Kelly and some of my other friends that I don't get to see very often. It was great to see my "unofficial sister" again. 

It was very much a "Fall" day, so I brought out some of the colors I love for this season...burgundy and blue. 

I've decided to go back to studying French. I did for three years, got busy, and ended up going too many months without this beautiful language in my life. I love this book...it has French stories with the English printed on the opposite page. I was very pleased when I first picked it up, and I could read most of the first paragraph! Ah...the simple feats make me happy. Wish me luck for the rest of the book. 

Stay Beautiful,

LBD Goes Casual

There are few things in life more important than a Little Black Dress. Even though this is generally meant to be of a cocktail variety, I dare say that a casual LBD is an even greater fashion nessecity. I saw this in the store, looking rather limp on the hanger, and decided to see how it fit. I put it on and immediatly thought of 15 different outfits I could do. There's so much possiblilty with a simple black dress that the outfit can pretty much put itself together. And for $10? I bought it faster than you could say "Kelly get the camera". 

 

I love neutral, basic bags because just adding a scarf to the strap makes a great statement. Plus if you have a few of these laying around (guilty!), it's super easy to change out the color depending on what that day's outfit looks like.

A Good Friend and A Good Pair of Heels

Today's post is a special one, because I had my friend, Kelly take the pictures. She's moving about an hour's drive away this weekend, which will take some getting used to (right now, I can get to her house in five minutes).

So we decided to get together, check out the new thrift store, and take some outfit shots before she goes. Here's what we got:

 

Kelly also helped me get another outfit photographed- I'll be posting that one shortly. Until next time....

Stay Beautiful,
