The has been one of my favorite "go to" casual outfits. I bought the jeans (which have awesome zippers on the sides) at Forever 21 for around $20 and the shirt around the same. 

The boots I borrowed from my sister Maddy along with the kaki green military jacket.

I have been a proud supporter of the top knot lately. I have been cheating and using a rolled sock with the toe cut off to make my bun fuller. I tucked my hair over the sock and under my ponytail and wa-lah!
 
I am featuring my hottie in this Christmas post.

We went out of the boat when we were visiting my parents in Texas.

He was wearing his turquoise Volcom sweater, grey straight jeans and, you can't see them but, grey and black DC shoes.
 

I was so excited about this patriotic tank.

I found this "America, 50 states of Awesome" tank [left] at Old Navy on sale for $10.00

I saved it for fourth of July but honestly, I would wear it on any causal day of the week.

I love America!

I paired with my jean button down, skinny jeans and red Keds.

Happy late 4rth everybody, God Bless!
 
Bringing out an older picture today for some causal outfit inspiration!

This picture is from a photo session with my sister TyRee that we did for fun. I wore my hot pink plaid collared button down with my MissMe jeans. 

I'm a little spoiled by my sweet husband; he bought me the fancy jeans! Such a sweetheart. 

Getting back on track...

For my hair, I took advantage of my wild bed head hair waves. I added a couple extra curls as needed with my straightener and then bobby pinned my bangs into a large poof.
 
I love getting the excuse to dress up! 

Tonight I had an celebratory dinner for getting an award at work. Since there where only three of us that won this time we decided to splurge and treat ourselves to Tepanyaki Japanese Steakhouse. 

YUM! I melt thinking of the food...and I just finished eating it!

The chefs are awesome too; they cook in front of you. I almost caught the shrimp tossed at me, almost.

I was still feeling like jeans but wanted to dress it up so I went with my purple skinny jeans.

I paired with a black and white striped tank, white cardigan (another birthday purchase), and black heels. These are my favorite heels. They rock!
 
We had to go to UVU campus today to register Jake for classes starting the 24th...of June. We are slow.

Yay, Jake! He is making the leap of faith to go back to school after being out for 4 years! So proud of him!

Anyways, the outing gave me the chance to wear some non-professional clothing. What does that mean? JEANS! 

I could live in jeans.

I broke out my brand new birthday jeans (my birthday was the 5th) that I bought for $20.00 at Maurices. 

They are awesome. 

The are stretch to fit meaning, you buy them snug and they stretch to fit.

I know how this sounds and I was skeptical at first too but they are so comfy! AND in a pant size smaller than I have been wearing! Woot! Woot!
