OOTD: Walk like an Egyptian

H&M White Button Down
(I love this shirt, but it wrinkles in 2 seconds)
F21 Scarf
Nordstrom Belt
Old Navy Leggings
(they have lace on the sides, but you can'tsee them in the pics)
Faded Glory Black Snake Skin Flats

So my outfit isn't all that snazzy and it definitely looks better in person (I don't think this pose is doing anything for me). The weather has been so non-committal here in CA. Over the weekend it was 85 and then rain all week long. WTH. I just hope it clears up for Easter and for my wedding since it's outdoors and we will not have a tent. Eeeeeks.

I have my hair/make-up trial tomorrow (see my posts here and here to give me some feedback on my ideas) and I cannot wait! My stylist N is so talented and I know I'm going to look FLY. Just and fyi, I'm trying to bring the word "fly" back.


I painted my nails last night with Sinful Colors Cloud Nine 853

I like the color, but it's so bright on my hands. I think it would be better if I had a darker skin tone or just on my toes. Unfortunately, we're all out of nail polish remover so I'll be rocking this until I get a chance to pick some up. Oh did I mention I put this on top of three coats of Essie Topless and Barefoot? Oy vey.

What are you guys doing for Easter? It's my favorite holiday and I can't wait to see our families. The Fiance's birthday is on Monday and mine is the following Monday so we're also celebrating our birthdays with his family as well. I'm going to make strawberry cupcakes and decorate them with chick and bunny marshmallow Peeps. I'll be sure to post some pics!

I'm evil because I told my mom I don't want to spend 4 hours of easter in a car.. a car that I would most likely be driving BLEH.

I really like how bright that color is! and kudos for just painting over because I'm about to probably do the same thing!

I think that scarf totally makes the outfit fierce ( as does the pose)

I basically wore this exact same outfit yesterday! That EXACT H&M top, leggings, brown belt, blue scarf, but I wore brown boots!

Totally adorable!

You are adorable. The weather has been crazy here too. It was humid and rainy at the beginning of the week, freezing and rainy end of the week, and now it's supposed to be in the eighties this weekend and next week. Ugh!

Your outfit is so cute! Bleh, my hair hates this weather -_-. I'm sending good vibes to the weather gods, I hope your big day is full of sun and clear skies :D
