The "Oversized" Sweater Theory

Forever 21 Coat & Sweater; Shoes (similar), Urban Outfitters Bag & Socks, Ray-Ban Sunnies

So about this sweater... As you can see it is, in fact, oversized on me. But, I got to thinking- is it really, actually oversized or am I just freakin' short? Well, I have to admit, it was pretty easy to test my theory. I just asked my roommate to try it on. We wear the same size clothes but she's about 6-7 inches taller than me. Conclusion- this sweater is, in fact, not oversized at all. But isn't it so much cuter on me since it is? Conclusion #2- there are, in fact, perks of being short. Boom. Science... (sorta). Happy Friday!

Urban Outfitters Dress, Vest from Buffalo Exchange, Urban Outfitters Tights (similar), Rag & Bone Booties, Urban Outfitters Bag, Vanessa Mooney Necklace

Happy Holidays! I don't know about you but I'm off of work today and tomorrow and I'm really excited about it. I wore this outfit the other night to a holiday party. This vest is too fun not to wear to a party, right? Anyway, I hope y'all have a great holiday and tomorrow is Christmas, so Merry Christmas if you celebrate!

Succulents

Happy Monday! It's been a while since I've posted some outfit photos around here. Sorry bout that. Well, now that that's out of the way, I went and bought some succulents the other day. My very first set of plants I've ever had I think. I'm not very domestic but I hear succulents are the lazy persons plant so that's kinda perfect. As long as I don't kill them in the first couple weeks I'll be happy.

Weekend Review: Fun Fun Fun Fest

Oh, Fun Fun Fun Fest, how I love you. Yet again this festival has proven to be my favorite. The food, the crowd, the lineup, the venue, the fashion. All so much better than any other music festival I've ever been to. Best. Weekend. Ever. And can we talk about these beautiful over-the-knee boots from Duo Boots?! I'm obsessed. They fit like a glove and are so comfortable. Perfect festival footwear.

Also, I'm featured on the Keep Austin Stylish street style blog along with more fashionable Fun Fun Fun Fest festival goers. Check us out! Thank you for including me Joanna :)

I could also call this post "I've Been Busy" or "I'm Lazy" or "Some Other Excuse So Here Are Some Low Quality Shots Of What I Wore Without My Face In Them So You Aren't Really Even Sure It's Me Anyway" ... OK, so that last title is kinda crappy and way too long, but that's basically what this post is. I haven't taken outfit photos in over a month. Sorry y'all. You'll just have to settle for these for now. I'm hoping to get back on track soon. Anyway have a great weekend! I might take some more insta-outfit shots over the weekend and post them on Instagram. Check me out over there @pieceology if you're interested!

Festival Jewelry

I guess technically festival season is over, but we do things a lil differently here in Texas. It's too damn hot in the summer for music festivals! Austin City Limits Music Festival is coming up next weekend then a few weeks after that is my personal fave, Fun Fun Fun Fest. Both festivals are in Austin and even though they are in October and November sometimes it's still pretty freakin' hot! Last year at FFF I was burning up. Ohhh Texas, your weather does confuse me.

Anyway, I've started planning what I'm going to wear, which is my second fave part about music festivals obvi. To get inspired I decided to pull out all my vintage jewelry my grandma gave me a couple years ago. These are perfect festival pieces if you ask me! Also, for added inspo, I'll be doing a fun Music Edition post next week with some songs from the bands I'm most excited to see. Soooo many good acts this year! Stay tuned :)

Fall Wish List- Color Inspo (Denim)

Denim, Denim, Denim! It's my favorite for Fall. Especially that denim on denim look ie. The Canadian Tuxedo. Check out my Denim Pinterest board for some outfit inspiration!

Button Up- Guess, Backpack- Topshop, Long Overalls- Topshop, Boyfriend Jeans- Current/Elliott, Pumps- NastyGal, Short Overalls- Topshop, Jacket- Washborn

Splurge or Save: Black Ankle Boots

Left- Acne ($630.00) / Right- Zara ($99.90)

Hey guys! Sorry I've been pretty absent and no new outfits lately, but I've been a busy girl these days with work. I'm also getting ready to move to a new place in a couple weeks, so I've been preparing for that too. Anyway, how almost identical are these Chelsea ankle boots by Acne and Zara? I'm pretty sold on the Zara pair, they were all over the fall lookbook and the height of the heel is perfection. Wish I could afford the Acne pair. Acne is one of my favorite brands, but I kind of love the Zara style better. Done and done. Happy Tuesday!

Fall Wish List- Color Inspo (Black)

Sweatshirt- Topshop / Blazer- Helmut Lang / Lens- Nikon 55-200mm / Booties- Rag & Bone / Bag- Cambridge Satchel / Skirt- Topshop

I've been bookmarking a lot of Fall clothes lately. Not on purpose, I guess it's just my subconscious telling me I'm ready for it. And even though technically it's almost Fall, if I know anything about Texas weather (which I kinda do) we won't be feeling that type of weather anytime soon. But maybe that's a good thing... some of these pieces might go on sale before I'm ready to buy! It makes me sweat just thinking about wearing anything besides a flowy dress or shorts and a light tee. This wish list is inspired by my absolute favorite color to wear - black. The perfect color for any season. Happy Tuesday! 

Barefoot on a summer night

Top- Zara (old, similar) / Shorts- Forever 21 (old, similar) / Necklace gifted- Moorea Seal / Bag- Coach

I had so much fun visiting my family last night. My Aunt, Uncle and 2 cousins just moved back to Austin from Louisiana a few months ago. We hung out on Lake Austin and played on the playground. I felt like a kid again. It's so comforting to have a little bit of family here in Austin. Summer night's like this remind me of how lucky I am. I'm so grateful for moments like this... And how adorable is my little cousin in her tutu?! I wish I could rock one of those as well as she does! 

Thanks to my Uncle Mike for taking these shots. He's been taking photos of the family for years. Every portrait of every grandchild in my grandparents house was taken by Mike. And there were A LOT of them. I'm one of over 30 grandkids!
