Manic Monday

Yep. It’s Thursday and I’m just posting my Monday look. That’s what kind of crazy week it’s been. I’m trying to squeeze in all my summer outfits before the summer is unofficially over in my book (September 1).  

 

Hem Hack

i learned an awesome alteration hack. No sewing required! So, this dress was too long when I bought it. I took it to be altered and they chopped it too short. I had pinned it myself to save my tailor some time, but there was just a misunderstanding. So it was an odd, midi length. To give it a different look, I tied a knot in the front hem to give it a simple, tulip hem. Easy! 

Check out the beautiful, stitched embroidery! 

 

This Dress!

I haven’t been posting! Ekk! But I have an excuse (kind of). I started my new teacher orientation this week and it has def been a switch in gears. I went from doing whatever I wanted, whenever I wanted, now I’ve gotta do everything after 5 pm like everyone else. But I totally don’t mind! I have goals in mind and I need to do this for myself and my independence. Also, I get to tap into two fashion spectrums in one day. Teacher by day, fashionista by night! Check out this adorable, embroidered dress that I got at TJ Maxx. It was originally $247 and I got it for $29! Amazing, right? TJ Maxx is my fav!
