Um, do you see the hair in the bun? That usually means I slept in an extra 15 minutes this morning instead of washing my hair. Kinda gross, but hey, I think under-eye circles are grosser. And I’m so excited about the Texas Style Council conference!! I have the day off on Friday, so I am officially on weekend break. eeeeee!!!
Now I just gotta pack. Hm, what do you wear to a fashion blogging conference?! I think I’m gonna be rocking it casual style in jeans, a loose top, and maybe a little spring dress. Oh, and my new floppy straw hat? Why yes. Oh how I cannot wait to be back home in Austin! And with all the walking that’s going to be happening, I’m actually considering takes flats with me. OMG. 🙂

Love the bun! And your color combos!! Cute! 🙂
Your bun is super cute! Quick hair tutorial?
Also do you walk around in those high heels all day at work? Any tips on how to keep your feet from hurting by the end of the day? Thanks!

i actually have a seated desk job (i write code all day) so i'm not really on my feet. but i have taken 3-hour long shopping trips with these shoes on! and the trick is all in these little Aldo Foam Instep Cushions: http://www.aldoshoes.com/us/accessories/shoe-care/comfort-fit/54958628-471_055/0
oh, and as for the hair, i cheated and used one of these hair chignon mesh things from Sallys Beauty Supply. 🙂 http://www.sallybeauty.com/mesh-chignon/FUSGRP01,default,pd.html?cm_vc=SEARCH
The bun looks great on you. I wish I looked that cute with a bun…I would be sleeping in more often 🙂

I love when you put your hair up like that – it just looks so elegant 🙂 The leopard + gold is just stunning. This is one of my favorite outfits of yours!
I just love your top, so bright and pretty!!
and I skip washing my hair most days, I'm all about hitting snooze as much as possible.
I really wish I could make it to Texas. Have fun! I would definitely bring flats in case you need them. Also, I would bring a few pens, a pad of paper, and business cards if you have them.

cute color combo! And I love that your shoes match your cardigan.
my fave thing about this outfit are those camel pumps! i was shocked when i read they were from forever 21. WOW! love them even more. xo
You look so pretty with the high bun. And love the color of your cardigan 🙂
The bun looks so sweet, not dirty at all 🙂
The bun is too cute to be gross. 🙂 This pencil skirt is so nice and trim and just perfect!
Oh I'm SOOOOO jealous that you're going to the TSCC!!! Have a ton of fun and take lots of pictures!!! 🙂
Cute, cute, cute! My hair is in a bun today too, heh. But my reason is 'cause my three year old twins don't always cooperate with me in the morning…
You look so so so darling. Just the perfect mix of colors – that are not evident to mingle!
Have fun! And I love the way you paired the loft shell with the mustard cardi! I have the same one, I'm going to have to steal your idea…
You look great so polished and chic! I love the look from head to toe. And lucky to get to start weeekend early. Have fun at your conf.
Gorgeous color combo from head to toe. I see that you have several pairs of heels from F21, are they comfy? Do you wear them on daily basis?
The bun look great on you and teh colors are just amazing love your outfit, i'm sure you will have great time at the conference so waiting for the pictures!!!

after having bought several F21 shoes, I wouldn't recommend their pumps. they honestly feel like cardboard. they were OK at first and i've even walked in these pumps for up to 3 hours for shopping before, but they're very cheap shoes… so buy with caution!
EEEEEKKK I'm so excited to see more pictures from the TX Style council!!! I really love your top!! I need more ruffles in my life lol

Oh yes, the hair mesh is truly a lifesaver when I need to wear my hair in a bun and don't wanna do any teasing. 🙂
Kileen
I love your hair like that! I wish mine would look that good when I just throw it up. It always looks too messy, never polished like yours.
I love your pumps! Have fun at the conference! I'd love to go, but it's too far for me! 🙂
I totally know what you mean by whenever you are running late you just place it into a bun. It looks great! Got to be my favorite hairstyle. =0D Is that BR skirt recent?
unfortunately the BR skirt was purchased last year (i think summertime?)…
