Daily Outfit 6

...My brand new shoes came in the mail today!
This is my first pair of Aldo's, and let me just say:

- they are so freaking comfortable
- they are made in Italy?!
- they arrived rather quickly
- they were cheapcheapcheap!
- did I mention they were comfortable?

Of course, I already gave one a scratch. But I'm going to try and keep them really really clean besides that. They are my new favorites.

I wore this outfit to dinner tonight at my favorite Indian restaurant. Nummy.
Now I should get my butt working on my new Etsy shop! (More later!)

Daily Outfit 5

Blurry, I know. But I wanted to post a different picture than I did on Lookbook.

I honestly don't know what made me dress this way today. I guess I was channeling myself, four years ago (especially with the faded Ramones tee from that time...it's practically purple).

T-shirt Hot Topic
Cardigan Urban Outfitters
Jeans Cheap Monday
Shoes Converse

The random three songs I've been playing on repeat? Sunday Nite in Glasgow by Dave P & Adam Sparkles, Don't Touch Me (Mike Mago & C-Code Remix) by Busta Rhymes, and Creator by Santogold. Funky music, yum.

Yum Thai

I made this Thai Rice Salad today, after seeing the recipe featured on Vegan A Go-GO.
That podcast/website has been a favorite of mine ever since I became a vegetarian last February. The recipes are so easy and unbeatably delicious--even for non-vegs. This will be my lunch for the next few days!

I hope everyone had a great weekend :)

Why Hello

Dear bloggers/fashionistas/Lookbook.nu members,

Can I be your best friend?

Love, Kayla

P.S. I visited Lookbook.nu after reading Jennine's post on it a few days back, requested an invite, and received one in my inbox the next day! I'm getting so inspired looking through every picture, but I'm especially loving the "occupations" each user gives his or herself. (They're silly!)

Victory

After searching online this morning for a similar style wedge as the Topshop ones I wrote about yesterday, I found these on Aldo. The best part? They were on sale with free shipping, and I found a promo code through Google for an additional 15% off!

I am already dreaming of all the ways I can wear these; I really have never been so excited over a pair of shoes before.

Now I am just praying that a size six fits me. *Crosses fingers!*

Serious Lusting


Honestly--there is so much I would give to have this shoe (and the other) from Topshop. Plus, they're half off right now! The bright red color, wedge/sling-back style, and fact that they would make me a sweet 5' 7" makes me want them even more.

It reminds me a lot of these ever-popular Marni heels.

Too bad the Pound to Dollar exchange rate sucks. *Very sad face*

On a brighter note, Topshop's sale is perfect for those who have money (or a stimulus check) to spend! I spotted tons of cute skirts and dresses, too.

Daily Outfit 4

Whew, this week has been hectic!

I started my summer job at my local university's library. For the past two summers I've been lucky enough to have that job, but let's just say I would be lost without my iPod and tons of internet breaks.

Brights were on my mind this morning :)

Tank Top Old Navy
Tee Alternative Apparel
Skirt H&M
Necklace Vintage
Bracelets Vintage & Pandora

When I was photographing this outfit, "Get Silly" came on the radio and I just couldn't help myself--I grabbed my nerdy glasses and broke out into crazy dancing. Man, for such a white girl, I really love dancing to rap music.

P.S. If you have a Gilt account, please head over and do some (up to) 90% off shopping for me! I'm completely broke, but they have tons of cute designer items for really cheap.
