"Don't wait for someone to bring you flowers. Plant your own garden and decorate your own soul."

This dress certainly has plenty of bold flowers. It's like your own little garden. I hope you have a wonderful Monday filled with flowers or something else nice.

Boho vibes in Vegas

This look is the one and only outfit that I got blog photos of when I recently took a trip to Las Vegas. Hopefully, next time I'll do better. I got this gorgeous long cream skirt last year at Target. It was just too pretty to pass up. I didn't even buy it on sale, but it was still a good deal ringing in at just over $20. Even though the skirt is beautiful, it definitely isn't a wardrobe staple. The skirt hung in my closet unworn for months, but I knew Vegas was the perfect place to finally wear the skirt. You stay cool in the skirt because the top layer of the skirt is all lace and the liner is a thin solid cream that is only the length of a short skirt. It is quite delicate--I did snag the lace in a taxi. However, it could easily be fixed with a needle and thread as my friend pointed out and I had trouble even finding the tear when I looked for it later. The cream cardigan is a Forever 21 find that I got a while back and just happened to coordinate with the skirt. The liquid lipstick is narcissist from Cailyn cosmetics. A liquid lipstick is a great product to use while traveling because you can put it on at the beginning of the day and you won't need touch up much during the day. It's very long lasting, but can be somewhat drying. The long wear is worth a little dryness for me. Narcissist, in particular, is a great nude pink with plenty of color.

The background mural is outside the Neon Museum near old town Vegas. We planned to do the tour, but they actually were sold out of tickets. We didn't think that would be an issue on a weekday, so if you want to visit the Neon Museum, be sure to get your tickets in advance. I've heard it's amazing, so hopefully I'll make it to see all the old signs on a future trip. Thanks to Janell for taking the photos.

Black and white casual

This black and white sweater was a clearance rack find from Lane Bryant. It's a graphic print that almost looks like an animal print. It works for anything: work or a casual day out. The denim skirt is a great versatile piece from Forever 21. The necklace is made from jade and freshwater pearls. It's from my trip to Guatemala last year. Guatemala is known for jade and there are amazing shops full of all different colors of the gemstone. Even though its only been a little over a year, it feels like a long time ago. I went with my work and Medical Teams International or MTI. You can join a trip through MTI and I would highly recommend it--completely life changing to spend time with the people of Guatemala! Have a great week.

Raindrops and a Barbie top

I think this is the last Barbie clothing item in my wardrobe that has not been featured yet on my blog! Quite the accomplishment and on a Monday to boot. And I might have even saved the best for last. This Barbie top is from Torrid's Barbie collection. The top is made from a thin gauzy material with a flattering black knit band at the bottom. It is so comfortable and cute. The fabric is different than anything else in my closet. It's very lightweight and no static cling! What more could a girl want? I'm wearing denim crops, but you can't tell because of the tall boots. The boots were a gift from my cousin Deanna. They are also ridiculously cute and comfy, apparently another theme for this outfit. For makeup, I'm using Urban Decay's Naked3 palette and Marc Jacobs Kiss Kiss Bang Bang lipstick. Watch for a tutorial video coming soon! What is your favorite look for a rainy day?

Quite foxy

A dress with adorable tiny foxes? Who can resist. This cute dress is super flattering and even comes with a little brown belt for less than $20. Super cute items go super fast at Forever 21, so click the link below if you're interested because the dress is still available online. I love the 3/4 length sleeves--always my favorite--and the skirt has plenty of flare. It also has a lovely open back and little bow! I'm wearing Ardell's #886 lashes and Sephora's Walk of Fame lipstick. You can also check out my post from yesterday for a video on how to do this makeup look.

Happy Monday lovelies! Do you have any favorite outfits featuring cute animals?
