shades of red.

Hello lovelies! Sorry for the quiet on here lately, it's been yet another hectic week.
This past weekend I went to the Georgetown LOFT Grand Opening sponsored by Lucky Magazine & A Lacey Perspective (and took my friend Katie with me!). It was a really nice event, complete with mini cupcakes from Georgetown Cupcake! I didn't buy anything (I was being good), but I did love looking at all the clothes. And of course I styled a look & was photographed!
Here is my look:

Very different from my usual, right? 

And some photos I took of the event:

1. Lovely store setup. 2. They had a DJ in the store window! A really good DJ, too.

3. Miscellaneous pretty accessories. 4. Mini cupcakes! I love me some cupcakes.

5. Vivi from Heart Print & Style being all blogger-y. 6. Lacey from A Lacey Perspective.

7. Some lovely merchandise. 8. The photo area.

And now, outfit photos! Taken by my friend Katie, as we were walking across the Key Bridge.

Obligatory silly picture.

I'm wearing:

Jacket: BB Dakota via Fancy French Cologne

Hat: vintage via Pretty People Vintage

Scarf: Urban Outfitters

Shirt: don't remember, haha.

Jeans: Wet Seal

Oxfords: Frye (gift)

Bag: the Kills concert

Necklace: vendor at the Renaissance Festival

I absolutely love how these photos turned out—they're some of my favorites that Katie has ever taken of me. And we had a great day out; after the event we made an obligatory (okay, obligatory for me, Katie didn't really have a choice hahaha) stop at Urban Outfitters, where I scored a pair of Levi's shorts for $10 and a beautiful dress for $30 (half off!). Oh, and the most adorable ring holder ever. All in all, a very productive day! Especially since we both had to work an event that morning. 

Also, can we talk about how obsessed I am with the color red? I think it's my fall color. I can't get enough of it lately. I'm so glad I got this jacket, it's perfect (and it was only $19)!

Tomorrow's Friday!!! Yaaay! I'm so excited because my boyfriend and I are going to my house for the weekend, and there are many mini adventures to be had! And I'm getting a new phone (finally! not telling what kind yet though!). And I get to see my cats, which will probably be one of the highlights of my weekend. (Me, crazy cat lady? Naaah.)

I need to stop using parentheses. Oh, and be sure to check out my new favorite etsy shop, An Upcycled Life! I'm biased because it's my good friend Allison's shop, but check it out! She makes awesome upcycled stationary!

Have a great day!
