Backdrop

I'm trying to expand my collection of casual sneakers, so I picked up these Vans. They're pretty comfortable because of the thick sole which is great because I do a lot of walking and running to and from places. And I love that these kicks match my purse, my leather Perlina purse which I scored at a sample sale for $40. I'm pretty sure I was slack jawed when I saw this bag for that price.

Double the Moto

You can never go wrong with anything that's moto style. It makes you look instantly cool. Extra points if it's leather. I doubled up on moto for this outfit to achieve a cool and casual look.

Fall Into Leopard

One of the best things about being petite is being able to fit into kids' clothes. This dress is from the kids section at Gap. It's a leopard print, shift dress with pockets. Three of my favorite things combined. How could I say no? Since it is a girl's XXL, there are a few minor adjustments to be made. The arm holes are a tad small, and the dress is shorter than I would prefer. But the arm holes can easily be adjusted. Since the outfit is mostly black and brown, I brightened it up with this bright red purse, and purple heels. I scored this leather Perlina bag at a sample sale for $25. Awesome, right?
