the girl's section.

If you follow me on instagram then you already know about this little deal, but I just had to share the bargain of the year with the rest of you.  I found this tassel-sleeve dress in the girl's section at old navy for $8.  Yes, $8!  It's selling online for $18, which is also a great deal...but run to your local store to see if you can find it at the lower price.  And a lot of people were asking me about sizing.  I bought an XL for the length (I'm 5'8"), but if you are shorter you can definitely go with a smaller size.  It's pretty baggy.  Uhhhh hello, and cinco de mayo is this weekend.  Wouldn't this be the perfect little dress to wear to a party this Sunday?  I think YES!

wrap it up.

For those days when my hair is not cooperating I either reach for a hat or a headwrap.  Something to quickly throw on to look somewhat pulled together and to catch any flyaways.  I even love grabbing one of my favroite scarves and tying it into a makeshift wrap.

breakfast.

Truth: I'm not really a breakfast eater.  I know, I know...breakfast is the most important meal of the day.  I'm trying to be better about it, but when I wake up eating is the last thing I feel like doing.  Ummmm, especially since I eat lunch around 11:30am, no joke.  So I'm slowly but surely working on it.  One of my favorite light breakfast meals has been greek yogurt with a bit of honey.  So so so good and hey, it doesn't require me to actually "cook" anything...score!

lashes + curls.

Sometimes I get in a little beauty rut.  Meaning, I wear my hair much the same every single day and my makeup rarely changes.  But I think I'm ready to shake things up.  I'm dreaming of bolder eyes.  Some longer lashes and a slight cat eye.  And I'm seriously loving this girl's full.big.curly.messy hair.  I'm usually not one for big hair, but this style is blowing my mind.  Ummmm hello pretty!

spring is definitely here.

I picked up these 2 items last week and thank goodness cause they ended up being in constant rotation this weekend.  From a little photoshoot (can't wait to show the photos from Melanie), a night out with friends, and a sunday funday bbq in the most gorgeous weather....these little gems kept me feeling cool in the spring sunshine.
