Yeah, what I said yesterday about an outfit post hiatus – nope. Haha. It was kind of funny that as soon as that posted I was like “I feel like taking outfit photos!” It was snowing pretty hard, and the roads were a wreck but it was surprisingly not that cold outside. Jeff and I headed down to my new favorite outfit spot, where the kitty lives. (I didn’t see that majestic little beast. Hoping I do next time!) We shot some photos together, most of which I did an awesomely bad job focusing on or else I would share. Then while I shot more photos of myself he wandered around and took some photos of the trains that were stopped on the track. I somehow always forget what a big difference getting some fresh air makes on my attitude. It was a really nice way to start the day. Getting a super awesome dessert with breakfast at Bonbon after the photos doesn’t hurt either…

This outfit is part of  #iamunique campaign by Unique Vintage.  It’s a year long campaign to celebrate how you express your own unique style, embrace your own unique body, and embody your own uniqueness. I’ve been chosen to be apart of the Style Society along side four other awesome bloggers.  I’m so excited to be a part of something so positive like this. You can use hashtag #iamunique to check out some of the others involved and share your own photos!

Shout out to my horse belt for working open one of the buttons on my dress! I was going to photoshop it so it looked buttoned but figured it wasn’t a huge deal. I may take oodles of photos of myself to share but they certainly aren’t all perfect. I toss so many photos for dumb things like my collar sitting wrong, or my necklace hanging the wrong way. It’s stupid, really. So on that note, here is one of those slightly out of focus shots of Jeff and I that I mentioned above because despite the fact it’s soft, it’s really adorable.

Hope you have a most excellent Thursday!
xoxo

oh, also, say hi to blue/green hair!

Yay! I hope it doesn't sound totally weird when I say, I've missed seeing you in dresses!

Kaylah January 23, 2015 - 2:12 pm

Haha! Well, hey, I've missed wearing them.

I can't get enough of Peter Pan collars lately and you rock it so well! I also love that sweet little gold horse belt. You have amazing style.

I LOVE YOUR HAIR! I wish I could find someone in tampa to color my hair like yours!

Kaylah January 23, 2015 - 2:14 pm

Thanks, Mara!

You can totally do it yourself. I've posted lots of info on it in the past. It's definitely not as tricky as people make it seem. 🙂

Thanks, Heather. 🙂

Jordyn January 22, 2015 - 4:34 pm

That horse belt is pretty much the greatest thing ever! I never would have noticed the button if you didn't say anything, but I do the same thing about tossing photos where something in my outfit is just a little bit off. Im finding myself not caring about it as much though! Progress!

Huge fan of a good green with gold accents and I love, love, love those shoes. Also that butterfly brooch is to die for.

Kaylah January 23, 2015 - 2:17 pm

Me too! Gold and green are perfect together. Although…I love just about any color with gold!

e.m. ricchini January 24, 2015 - 7:05 am

So true. It can do no wrong.

Laura Morris January 22, 2015 - 6:48 pm

I got that same purse from Target for my birthday and I love it SO much! Your new hair is beautiful, btw!

Kaylah January 23, 2015 - 2:17 pm

It's the perfect size to fit my camera and an extra lens, so I'm obviously a fan!

Thank you!

Thanks for sharing the picture with you and Jeff, it's so so cute, my cheesy self is very happy to see this 🙂 Love your outfit from head to toe, specially all those little bits that make me say out loud: oh! this is so Dainty Squid, like the little tooth pin. Love the dress as well, off to check all the links 🙂

Kaylah January 23, 2015 - 2:20 pm

Hehe, thank you so much! 🙂

Stephanie Bass January 22, 2015 - 10:08 pm

I think this is my favorite hair color! And… HOW DID YOU MAKE THAT BROOCH?! I love it!

Kaylah January 23, 2015 - 2:23 pm

Thanks, Stephanie. I bought a bunch of butterfly images on wood and then glued them to pin back. It's not so much made as assembled but it's easier to put "handmade" in the details than write where I got each piece. But if you'd like to make your own, I bought the pieces all on etsy. 🙂

So pretty! Your hair is so nice. I love this blog!!
