Team Jenny Mermaid Nails & LWD

I wasn't joking! Anything lace inspired, and I'm there with credit card in hand. This eyelet shift is from J. Crew last year. If you've been reading from the beginning then you know I've worn it once. But last time was a bit more classic: standalone shift paired with vibrant neon colors in the Kate Spade yellow clutch, green and blue thin strap heeled sandals, and wavy hair.


     This time, I went for a boyish look accompanied with delicate, dainty jewelry for a touch of femininity. I love wearing shifts for their functionality, but as a short, curvy girl it's easy to look like an oompa loompa from Willy Wonka's chocolate factory. 

     A lot of streetstyle stars tie shirts around their waist for added dimension. I decided to use this trend to create some definition in my figure! The results? I definitely find shift dresses more appropriate for my small stature now, even for blog photos! Maybe you'll see more in the future :)

     And can I point out the amazing nail job? My friends at Team Jenny Nails painted my nails over the weekend, and it reminded me of the beach! The colors of the sea surrounded by bits of gold glitter like the sun reflecting off the water as sea foam washes up a starfish! Ahhhh! Makes me motivated to try and paint my nails all the time now to match my outfits. We shall see....
