Homecoming 2012

Hey I'm back. Not going to rant about myself slacking off again... but let's just say don't give up on me quite yet:)

So.  What you've all been waiting for (for much too long).

Homecoming 2012.... Basically the best first date out there:) (and thanks to my sweet date... but I'm doubting that he'll see this.)

Skirt: J.Crew Belt: J.Crew Shoes: DSW (ps they're suede... loving it for fall...) Necklaces: My mother's Blouse: H&M.  It was actually a shift dress... but we just cut it and had it hemmed to make it into this darling top! Felt pretty creative.

My crazy, crazy group.  But I'm pretty sure we had the most fun out of anybody there...

Just the best day.
 PS Sorry I don't have more actual pictures of the dance... but frankly I'm  not quite sure on how to get the pictures legally from the photographer....

That's all for now... happy fall break!!

love, Reags

Just Around the Corner

I can't help but feel like something completely life changing is just around the corner.

Who knows? It may even be high school.  I hear it's a rather personality-influencing experience.

That's right kids.  8 days until I am officially a Lone Peak Knight (go team!!)

Speaking of team, we've also got our first tennis match today.  Lone Peak versus Brighton.  Let's go girls.


The other things that happens to be just around the corner is fall itself... my favorite season of them all.  So yesterday I picked a slightly more autumn-y outfit.  This bronze tulle skirt was shared in an earlier post (Easter, I believe) and the chambray buttondown is a go-to no matter the season! I slipped on my new yellow flats (yellow flats have been on my wishlist for ages) which I scored from Old Navy and are positively adorable.... Plus my sparkley J. Crew belt.  The belt really pulls it all together (pun intended).

Yesterday also happened to be the first time I not only blowdried, but STRAIGHTENED my hair this entire summer!!! I cannot stand blow-drying.  So I avoid it unless absolutely necessary.


But anyways I also topped off the look with a "pink blush" tinted kisser.  It's the only true lipstick I have, and I love it with all my heart!! It was actually just a free Clinique sample from our good friend Nordstrom's... but it's good enough for me.  Can't wait to wear it to school to mix things up a bit!!


Love, Reags

PS:  No, my arm is not blue as one girl commented.  I just crippled myself again and have been wearing a wrist brace.

My Secret Weapon

Sorry guys... It's been quite a while since I've posted, but in my defense life's been a little crazier than usual lately! I'm running for Sophomore Student Council and it's kind of taken over my life! (Just Do It... Vote for Reagan! I know. Overdone.  But my creativity does not extend to campaign slogans, unfortunately.)  But I have a treat for you today... I'm guessing that most of you shoe-lovers have already discovered this, but Alexis (a fellow shopaholic) hadn't! So I supposed I'd share this with all of you...
DSW. Designer Shoe Warehouse.  AKA Paradise.

No really! It's cheap (compared to some) and chock full of FABULOUS sandals, sneakers, heels, flats, even rainboots! Not kidding.  Found a DARLING pair of royal blue patent-ish snowboots that I begged for, but unfortunately did not receive. Anyways y'all really and truly need to check it out.  Here are a few samples I handpicked...

No words. 

Metallic gold toes? Yes please!

I tried these on in the store in the gold glitter color: to die for!!

So usually I'm not a big fan of cheetah print on anything other than regular ballet flats, but my friend bought these and they are honestly some of the cutest shoes I've seen on.

Yup. Go to dsw.com.  And you'll never have to look anywhere else for shoes ever again... And keep in mind that these are just a teeny selection out of their thousands of shoes, so if you don't like what I've posted here, look it up for yourself! There's really something for every shoe-addict.

Love, Reagan

ballet flats... every girl's essential.

Here's my philosophy when it comes to shoes: there is no limit when it comes ot ballet flats.  Printed, patent, bedazzled, velvet... really anything goes.  And that's the beauty of it! So take a peek at my newest photos.  And unfortunately, not all of these are mine.  I ended up stealing from my little sisters, too... 

If only... shoes grew on trees...

My attempt to use BlendCam to layer these photos... Didn't turn out exactly like I was hoping to!!

Enjoy... :)

Diamonds aren't a girl's best friend...

But heels certainly are!
I paired this monochromatic outfit with a neon orange scarf to give it a bit of color. Especially in winter, bright and fun scarves are the perfect way to brighten an outfit! Plus, I've always loved the layering look.

 You can't really see the earrings, but they are big black drops with little rhinestones around the edges!

 These are my wear-everywhere-for-everything heels. Black pumps! (I'd call them a necessity)

Scarf: J.Crew
Cardigan: Gap
Pencil Skirt: (denim material) Anthropologie
