Channeling Kelly Kapowski

Last week, most voted for the red dress {mucho thanks}, so now we have to narrow down the shoes and accessories! I'm pretty sure I've decided which option with Kelly's help, but let's see if you agree.

Option #1

Option #2

There might be only one slight problem. I thought this one had been dry cleaned, and then I saw a spot on it last night. Plus I'm a dummy and tried to iron it myself. If I find a dry cleaner that can get it done today, we are good. If not? Plan B will probably be the black dress. The good news is that I will most definitely be trying RentTheRunway.com for the next dress. It sounds way better than all this hassle!

I also want to mention the trend I am lusting over.
CROP TOPS.
I know they are so Kelly Kapowski, but they intrigue me anyways.




There is just something about that small patch of skin that is so sexy to me...
This is why I was enticed to buy a shirt similar to the cut of this one:

I'm hoping to have the guts to wear it like this, because I love suspenders.

But I have a feeling, I will wear it more like this:

I really hope I have a reason to wear it soon!
Now, everyone have a fabulous weekend, and keep an eye out on Instagram/Twitter for what I wore and the other shenanigans that will happen. I am so glad we relaxed last weekend.





Happy Superbowl!
Who are you rooting for?

    I love the shoes in option #2. Red looks good on you.

    That dress looks amazing on you! I pick the #2 shoes to give it a funky edge.

    I love crop tops and will love seeing them on all the young 20 somethings. I miss wearing my tops short. That was my thing. I always showed off my flat stomach.

    I love suspenders--but I don't think I'd ever be brave enough to wear a crop top in public showing my tummy--I'd feel too naked and I'm pretty sure Angel would laugh at me. What he always wants to see me in is mini-skirts, anyways. Men...

    Love the shoes in #1- when in doubt, go with glitter :)

    I didn't think I was a fan of crop tops, but the ones with a tank underneath are cute!!

    Definitely option #2!!

    As for cropped tops, I'll leave that for you to try. I have too much midsection for my liking!

    I like #1 for the shoes-think it goes better with the necklace, and they look better with that length of dress. I think the ankle strap shoes cut your legs off to make them look shorter...just my opinion :)

    I vote for option #1 the pumps. They just seem to be a better fit for that dress. Hope you can get it cleaned in time. I remember when crop tops were in! I was in college and I rocked it. If they come back...I don't know if I'd have the guts to wear one again!

    I like option #2! The shoes are sexy and unexpected. And I'm loving those crop tops. Not sure I could pull them off, but I love them on others. :)
