About this look...
I love making two pieces out of one garment in my closet. That's why I love to layer dresses under skirts or tops. This grey peter pan collar dress was purchased from ASOS about a year ago and hasn't been seen on the blog since then! Layered on top of it is my latest Poshmark purchase--a pretty pale pink pleated skirt (say that five times fast!). Keeping with the ladylike theme this outfit was taking, I added the patent bow belt and lace socks I've had in my closet for a while. But the pièce de résistance definitely has to be the chevron clutch I DIY'd! I'm so thrilled about it that I'll be showing you how I made it tomorrow, so definitely check back!

Thought of the day...
Spring cleaning has come a bit early for me this year. Over the weekend, I got the itch to go through my apartment and find a bunch of stuff that I can get rid of. So far, all I've really succeeded in doing is making a giant mess while filling two giant bags full of stuff.
Though I've known that I have way too many clothes, bags, and shoes, I was really surprised by how many beauty products I have. How many lipsticks, eye shadows, and hair products does one person really need? Though it felt like such a waste to throw this stuff out, I got rid of a quite a bit. Go me!
How do you stay on top of your beauty cabinet? I'd love to hear your strategy!

Love the bag! Can't wait to see your DIY!
That purse is AWESOME - do share the DIY deets on that, plz! I've been trying to find a good peter pan collar shirt or dress myself. I figure if Zooey Deschanel can wear the cutesy stuff like that, then so can I, since we're the same age. I'll just ignore the fact that celebs are always allowed to wear/do things mere mortals cannot :)
I cannot believe you made that clutch. I read lots but rarely comment...can't wait to see how you did it.

You couldn't wait to get rid of the makeup for another two weeks? :) JK My point is that I'm excited to see you.
Love that skirt, and the clutch! Looking forward to your DIY post!!

I always forget to layer dresses under skirts and give pieces in my wardrobe new purpose. I love that you did that here! The pleated skirt is gorgeous.
