Ready to Rodeo
Been enjoying some time off some school and a much needed chance to do, well nothing. Also, a much needed chance to head to Houston and catch the rodeo, one of my favorite events of the year.
Rodeo style means sweet dresses, jean jackets and cute cowboy boots for me. It’s always fun to walk around the fair and check out everyone else’s rodeo style too, though I don’t know if I...

Big Changes
I woke of this Saturday morning and made the decision that it was finally time to take the plunge and find a hair salon here in Austin. See, I’m very particular about who I let cut my curly, thick hair. But not only did I find a great place (Paloma, near Mueller), but I found the courage to go for the pixie cut I’ve been admiring since it first showed up on Emma Watson all that time...
Summer Already?
It topped 80 degrees for the first time this year (already!?!)…time to bring out dresses and skirts instead of sweaters, jeans and boots.

Also, please forgive the closet pic…I was having a hard time getting decent lighting outside.

Finds
I love a good thrift store find…you know those things you run across tucked far on the back of shelves that you could never really find anywhere else? Well I had two (TWO!) this weekend: a vintage pair of leather Cole Haan Country loafers and a beautiful pair of vintage white Salvatore Ferragamo flats. Normally, I feel kind of weird buying vintage shoes but these were just too beautiful to...
Wu'd
So I’ve started incorporating my new Jason Wu for Target obsession into my wardrobe. Hey, if I can’t have the real thing (grad student budget), figured I might as well pick out and hunt down the best pieces of the collaboration. I didn’t love all of the pieces that went out, blush just really isn’t my color and there was LOTS of it in the line…but some of the pieces...

The Search for Jason Wu
Had a realization this weekend while visiting family in rural Louisiana….those cute Jason Wu for Target pieces that are sold out all over Austin are still available in places like Lake Charles, Beaumont, Port Arthur and Baytown. Heading back to Texas, my mom and I made some Target stops along the way and grabbed quite a haul including, but not limited to, a pair of the coveted shorts for...
Winter White
I really need to start coming up with better titles for these posts…but like the title says, today I busted out some winter white to spice up my typical jeans and a sweater December-February uniform.
Unfortunately, white jeans are not so great for playing with your puppy…oh well, totally worth walking around with a few mud spots for the afternoon…I like to think dirt gives...
Bundled Up
Decided the cooler weather we’ve been having meant it was time to get a little cozy with my outfit today…what’s not to love about well-worn boyfriend jeans, a flannel and a cozy mustard sweater?
It’s even better when your boyfriend jeans were stolen directly from your slightly (okay very) confused boyfriend

Backstory
When I first moved to Austin I started a blog to keep up with old friends and eventually it morphed into a style blog. For a while over the summer I kept up with my new project …and then I started Graduate School and got super busy and promptly dropped the original blog. Well, now that I’m into my second semester and have been recently inspired by a winter trip to france I’ve...
