Beanies and Florals

This outfit is from a few weeks ago. Please excuse the short, continuous OOTD posts, technical issues are no fun. More interesting content coming soon! 
---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

 Have I told you all how completely obsessed I am with beanies?
The only thing I struggle with when wearing one (especially this black one), though, is keeping some of my femininity in tact within the look.
Very little screams girliness more than pink, floral, strapless,  mini-dresses, so I paired my beanie with just that.
Of course, it's winter and desert nights can be freezing, so I had to do some layering.
I threw a black, sheer blouse over the dress and black tights underneath.
To add even more color, I wore my blue, suede-ish, oxfords.
I finished off the look with a denim jacket and rose gold bangles.

Turban Headband and Flowers

Hi all,
I've been eyeing turban headbands for quite some time but was always hesitant about how one would look on  me or what people would think-- I get tons of annoying stares by solely rocking a bright lipstick.
Recently, I've been feeling a lot bolder when it comes to fashion, so I went ahead and bought one.
I purchased this specific creamy one at Ross for $4.99, but I've also seen them at Rue 21, Papaya, and a few other stores.
I opted for this color because I figured it would be easier to style although now I feel like that's not particularly true. Not because the color was hard to work with, but because mix and matching with the other available colors would have actually been a lot of fun.
Regardless, the piece itself is really cute, and while it did draw quite a bit of attention, I like it. I might even buy another in a different color.
I paired the piece with a sweater of a similar color from Guess and a denim jacket-- both gifts-- on top and went for loose, floral shorts from Forever 21 to balance out the warmth of the outfit. You can't see from the pictures, but I am wearing my blue oxfords, and lastly, my lipstick is Eucalyptus by NYX.
That's going to be it from me for today, but I'll be posting every Tuesday and Thursday (with the exception of Thanksgiving Thursday) from now on, so stay tuned for that.

As always, thank you for reading!
Meow and out,
Gabee

Feeling Wild & Free in Cowboy Boots

I'd be lying if I said this look wasn't inspired by my soul mate (yes, soul mate), Nick Santino from A Rocket to the Moon-- the man rocks jean jackets and cowboy boots like no other.
In fact, you should listen to this as you read on:

I really like this outfit. Like my last post, this one has the colors that remind me of fall. The floral shorts remind of a similar pair I wore over the summer in yellow and navy blue, but these flowers are a bit more rustic which I thought would be cool to pair with my sister's cowboy boots. On top, I went for my handy dandy sheer cami from Forever 21 with a denim jacket, a hand-me-down from my aunt, for a fun yet super chill feel. I completed the look with a multi-tone coin necklace from Payless.  Again, I'm wearing one of Revlon's Lip Butters in Raspberry Pie but this time with Maybelline's ColorSensational in Plum Perfect on top for a deeper red-ish color.
