Outfit of the Day OOTD: Hard and Soft

Hi everyone! It has been a very long time since I did an outfit of the day (OOTD). I really loved today's outfit and thought it would be very appropriate to do a blog post on. Let me know if you would like to see more outfit posts. I went thrifting at Goodwill yesterday and picked up this adorable baggy sweater shirt that I really wanted to style today. 

My inspiration for this outfit: 

I wanted to mix edgy and soft textures and colors.
I wanted to have a loose top with tight pants and tight combat boots. 

Here's a photo of the top up close. The detailing looks like little hearts, which I thought was very Valentine's Day appropriate. 

I used the cream top with darker purple/grayish black pants/ and black boots. The top brings a freshness to the rest of the outfit. 

 I paired the soft top with this heavy, edgy chain necklace. This top could have also been paired with a scarf if you want to stay warm outside.

Top:

Purple top - Wet Seal

Necklace:

Pants:

Boots:

 Here are some upclose shots of the boots. They lace up the front and have some metal detailing on the side.

FOTD: Emerald Green

Today I have a Face of the Day that is inspired by a post from MakeupbyTiffanyD. I saw this look and absolutely loved it and wanted to try to recreate it. My take on this look is not quite as dark, but it is still a similar concept. This is also my first time wearing a nude lip, so I am a little unsure how I feel about that part of it lol. This look would be appropriate for a party, girls night out, date night, etc. 

Product list:
Eyes:
ELF Eyelid Primer
NYX Jumbo Pencil in Milk
Sleek Oh So Special and Storm palettes
NYC Show Time Glitter Eye-liner Pencil
Covergirl Clump Crusher Mascara

Outfit of the Day: Edgy Summer Look

 Hi everyone! I know that I haven't been on here in awhile, but I am definitely still going to be posting. Today, I have an outfit of the day for you. I wanted to do an edgy look that is fun and can be worn for summer. I found these fantastic shoes at a shoe store around here. The chain strap was broken on the left shoe, but my husband knew that it would be an easy fix. Because the strap was broken, I was able to purchase these shoes for only $4! It was definitely a steal! I really wanted to incorporate the new shoes into a look, so here's what I came up with!

 

 White Shirt: Forever21
Vest: New York and Company
Shorts: Thrifted
Shoes: The brand is called Xappeal
Necklace: Given to me from my bestie in New Mexico
Watch: Charming Charlie

 

         They are sort of a cross between flats and gladiator sandals.

Not too bad for $4 shoes!

Here's a better shot of the necklace!

I took my hubby's wallet chain thing he has had forever and attached the guitar charm from my best friend and TA-DA!
