Monday Musings: Trying to “P(r)ep” Up the Weather in Pink and Green

June 10, 2013

Happy Monday, lovelies!
The weekend went by a little faster than I would have liked, aaaand was a little less productive than I would have liked.  I don’t know about you, but something about it being summer makes me want to just lounge around all day and not want to do chores.  I did clean the house, but I had a lot more than just chores on my list.  And it has been rainy.  I took these pictures this morning in the rain.  My sweet hubby is amazing!

SO, back to my musings:
1) I am going to sit down and make myself a very detailed, structured schedule.  I made these in college, every semester, and I actually thrived!  For some reason , if I have a highly structured environment (yeah, I’m one of those kids), I am able to work, workout, do chores, have a quiet time, AND still have free time.  When I don’t have a set schedule (cough cough, substitute teaching), I am literally thrown into chaos and have no idea what to do or where to begin.  Blame it on ADHD (I swear I have it!!).  I will start a task, and “ooh, blog comments!” so I will start replying back to them and “OMG, THERE’S A J.CREW SALE THAT I SHOULDN’T BE LOOKING AT”, and “oops, gotta go put another load of laundry in…..”EEK!! Just kidding, there’s a giant spider sitting on top of the washer!!”.  You get the idea.  I literally have the attention span and memory of a goldfish who forgot to take her Ritalin.  You know how it is.  Life. 🙂

2)  I am currently obsessed with anything that is leopard print.  Anything.  Like, I see a maxi dress or this clutch and I start salivating.  You’re welcome, by the way. 🙂

3)  It has been 5 weeks, 6 days, 3 hours, and 2 minutes since the Closet Remix Challenge began, and the natives are getting restless (read:  INSANE).



















Exhibit A                                                                                Exhibit B
4)  Why is nautical print anything so appealing??  What makes it hook our attention and sink us into the depths of obsession?  Oh yeah.  Puns intended 😀  This is what I wore yesterday to church.  Exhibit A of my nautical obsession.  Dress, sandals, and belt are from Target.
Exhibit B is this dress that I on Tumblr of all places, and needless to say, I am hooked.  Sorry, I’ll stop. =]  I spent the better half of my Saturday afternoon searching the internet for this fabric, which I finally found, so now I am waiting to order it and I will be making this for my first sewing project!!  Btw, I did find the boutique that makes this dress, and it’s a leetle expensive…$298, to be exact!
Alright, I’ll spare you the rest of my musings and head straight into the outfit I picked out…

I’m kinda into the whole half-tucked look now!  It dresses down an otherwise very preppy, dressed up outfit, perfect for just hanging out with friends.  Don’t get me wrong, I have fully embraced my preppy side (guilty as charged!) but sometimes the mood calls for a little bit of dressing down.

The Deets:
Shirt:  J.Crew Factory, similar // Denim:  Forever 21 // Shoes: Target // 
Necklace: Etsy // Watch:  Wet Seal, similar // Bracelets:  Pave – Etsy,
Bow – Betsey Johnson (sold out), Bangle – Forever 21(sold out)

I am going to wrap this up, as I have become long-winded (if you are still with me, THANK YOU!!).  I do have a matter of importance to ask you all….My hubby and I will be leaving for Germany (YAAY) on July 1st and won’t be back until the 19th, and I am in the market for some fabulous ladies to cover for me while I am gone! 😀  If you are interested in doing a guest post, email me at whitley@simplywhitsequinedlife.com letting me know you are interested!

What do you think of the half-tucked look?

Have a wonderful week, lovelies!

    I love the Monday Musings. My weekend went about as productively as yours. This look is just too cute. I like the half tuck. Oh, and I too am obsessed with leopard. Great minds think alike. I'll email you about guesting in the AM. 🙂

    PS- I didn't know you were/are a sub! I'm almost done with my teaching credential here in California. If they aren't hiring when I finish (going to teach high school English, preferably GATE and AP classes) I may end up as a sub next Spring!
