Here comes the sun





(J.Crew ruffled blouse, Forever 21 mustard cardigan, The Limited flared pants, Forever 21 floral rhinestoned earrings)

Nothing excites me more than warm weather. So when the forecast called for temperatures into the 50s and 60s this week, I started planning outfits for the week immediately! 

I picked up this beautiful blouse while I was outlet shopping in the summer. I'm telling you, J.Crew outlet stores have some great deals if you take the time to dig. Usually, I steer clear from ruffles, especially near the girls since I don't need anymore attention in that area, but these ruffles were just the right amount and made for a great statement. It's also sleeveless, so I can wear it through the changing seasons.

Today, I experimented with the tripod by getting different types of shots. Success? I wish I had gotten more photos of the flared pants. I've had a vendetta against flared pants ever since "skinnies" became popular, but alas, after trying on a pair of wide leg flared jeans the other day at Urban Outfitters, I am becoming more friendly with the fit again. (I need to go back to get those jeans, ugh!) So I took these Limited pants out of storage. For short girls like me (with butts), it's so unbelievably difficult to find pants that fit correctly without getting them tailored, but The Limited has a great selection in tons of different styles and fits!

Good weather, please stay, so I can wear cuter outfits. Okay? Thanks.

I LOVE the blue ruffle shirt! I'm pretty curvy also on the top, and I totally hear you about the ruffle thing. But, this makes me want to go shopping for some ruffles! Inspiring!
