First Day

Okay so I realize that I have been back in school for about three weeks now, but I have to catch up with my posts so yay First Day of School outfit!
So I love this dress because it just fits me awesome everywhere, but it is a little bit shorter than I like but I can deal. Especially since I am going to be wearing tights soon with the chilly fall weather coming in. I also love the color of the dress and I feel like the collar brings attention to my new hair do! So if you haven't been following me on instagram, you would be just finding out that I cut my hair. (I realize the second to last post I wrote I had my hair cut but I'm laying down and you can't really tell) I had been thinking of cutting my hair for a while and when I found out my salon takes Locks of Love donations, I thought it was now or never. So I went in about two or three weeks ago and decided to chop off the hair I had been growing out since the horrible haircut of '03. (My second grade self decided I would look good with my very curly hair cut up to my ears. I didn't...) So I was a little worried about cutting my hair short again because of that elementary disaster, but I am not particularly attached to my hair like some girls just because mine grows so fast. I knew that if I didn't like it I could have it long again in a little less than a year. So, after my hairdresser asking me about ten times if I was ready and "Are you sure? Please don't go into shock when I cut it like other girls" I told her to snip away! And no, I didn't go into shock. I liked it. And still do. Especially the way my curls look now without all the weight on them I kind of have that 30s flapper look going on. And I love it :)
So tell me, have you ever wanted to cut your hair but were too afraid, or you did and you loved or hated it!? I wanna know! Comment with your stories below and again tell me what you like and don't like what I do, it's the only way I can make you guys enjoy the blog more! If you need any advice I'm happy to give it and good luck in your fashion adventures!

Green Hearts And Just the Right Shoes

I was fixing my hair in this picture but I need a front view of the dress so enjoy the smiley face! :)

So for some reason I'm suddenly finding all this time AFTER vacation to post my pictures? Please someone explain this to me! Anyway we had beautiful weather for a couple days, but as any New Englander knows "If you don't like the weather in New England, wait five minutes". In a matter of a day it had become extremely cold and rainy, so I begrudgingly broke out my tights again and created this outfit. I really like it and think it will become added to the regular outfit ideas in my head. I love how the hearts on the dress and the shoes exactly match in color, but they're so small it isn't obviously "matchy matchy".
I also love the fit of this dress and the cool ruffle collar. 
I want to talk about the power of shoes. These shoes are one of my all-time favorite pairs in my closet. They are really unique and just had to have them when I saw them in Provincetown this summer. They actually go with a lot because there are a mix of color in them. They are real leather everywhere, a stacked wood heel and SUPER comfy for a four-inch heel(which for me, is the absolute height limit). I love these shoes and when I have them on, the day is always awesome, along with my mood. I feel like certain shoes have the power to make you feel that awesome and, in my opinion, it should happen more often!
So comment on this or any post on this blog about any questions you have or anything else! I love hearing for you!
