Hey Everyone!
I hope you're all having beautiful days! The sun is shinning here so I thought I'd take advantage of the beautiful light and snap an outfit of the day for you. This morning I had an interview for a really amazing and trendy restaurant near my home. I wanted to keep my outfit fresh and simple while still showing off my bubbly personality.
(Polka Dot Dress: thrifted $9.99 , AE Cardigan: thrifted $2. , Nine West Shoes: thrifted $5. Aldo Purse $20.) |
I seriously can't get enough of this dress! I picked it up last week at a local thrift shop and squealed for joy when it zipped up. It's a strapless dress with lace and bead detailing round the bottom plus a pop of crinoline (drool).
(Wet n' Wild nail polish in "Candy-licious") |
Since it's a strapless, I popped a light sweater over top to cover my shoulders. If you can't tell I am loving these Nine West shoes I picked up in Bermuda. They're the perfect summer shoe with just the slightest wedge heel.
(hopefully this will be me jumping for joy that I got the job... I really hope!!) |
(who wouldn't want to hire this face?!) |
I kept my hair and makeup very simple. I used light purple eyeshadow shades with a slight winged liner to keep with the retro feel of my dress. I topped it all off with a juicy pink lip. For my hair I just ran a curling iron through it to create soft loose curls (and forgot the hairspray so they quickly feel out).
To try and keep myself busy today (I'm feeling like I drank 50 cups of coffee I'm so jittery and nervous) while I wait for the result, I'm going to go do some more thrifting! Woot woot! One of my current favourite shops is having a 50% off sale today. Say what?! Oh yess my friends.

I love the dress and hair comboo. It's very 1950's pin up girl (in a good way). Did you hear back from the restaurant?
