Slightly Stylish: I need a tan

Happy Monday, darlings!

I hope you had a wonderful, warm & relaxing weekend!

Last week I was finally able to really wear dresses without tights and the one thing I realized is how pale my legs are. So put on some sunglasses & check out what turned into a week full of floral fashion.

Last Monday was full of bridal meetings. I have two weddings in the next four weeks so it's definitely exciting but also very busy. My bangs are getting too long and I'm planning to grow them out over the summer so I'm in a daily battle to try & control them.

Wednesday was a fantastic, fantastic day because I came home to my new Blowfish Shoes Garrens. If you follow me on twitter you know I was so incredibly excited to get these babies. Wednesday was even better because it was Jus's dad's birthday and we got to celebrate with pizza & strawberry rhubarb pie.

Thursday night was another bridal meeting followed by a date with Jus. I love going on dates with my hubby. I also love this floral dress & the fact that our lilac bushes are blooming.

Saturday I was excited to pair my Garrens with one of my favorite dresses. We headed to the local bar to see a band and I was amazed when my feet were fine after 5 hours in 4.5" heels.

PS Blowfish did not sponsor this post, I just really love my Garrens. They're wide enough for my Fred Flintstone feet & make me a normal height, both big pluses.

I keep saying I need to go fake baking or spray tanning or something. I can't stand how pale I've been looking!

Love all the dresses and I'm so glad it's been getting warmer (with the exception of the last couple days). I need to find some thicker belts like yours too.

I love your outfit posts!! Those shoes are too cute. I have the worst time finding sandals for my wide feet too and it's so frustrating. I finally found some wedges a while back at UO that fit perfectly. Can't wait to see what else you pair with them :)

Love those shoes! Congrats on being about to rock such high heels, I can only dream! If I wore 4 inch heels I would be over 6 feet tall and towering over Keith haha

I'm one of the most pale people in existence. Own it, I say!

steph c said...

All adorable outfits, per usual ;) And don't feel bad.. I went to Mexico and you'd never be able to tell. People don't believe I went because I somehow seem to look more pale than I did when I left. It's terrible lol!
