Two in One

Red Vines are probably my favorite unnaturally red food product

Maxi Dress: Lucky Brand

As you can probably tell from the rest of this blog, I am obviously a hippy at heart. 

Yeah, just kidding. But this weekend I went to my grandma's annual birthday celebration, which is always outside (and which is, incidentally, always annual since, unless you were born on February 29th, birthdays are pretty much always a yearly occurrence). I knew it was going to be "a scorcher" as, er, no one says, so I thought I'd become a flower child for the afternoon. Not only was I kept remarkably cool, this dress also instantly helped me gain a greater appreciation for tie-dye and tapestries.

Hat: ?

But wait!

Yet another birthday party (this time a surprise party for a friend's mom) was in the cards that evening. Ever glamorous, I made I quick costume change at a sketchy park rest area. Unfortunately, I was having far too much fun at the actual party and forgot to document Outfit 2.0 until I arrived back home, weary and worn after a day of intense socializing. I assure you, most of this enthusiasm is faked:

Shirt (that's actually a shirt dress): Target

Skirt: Forever 21

Belt: Target

Necklace: vintage

Shoes: Clarks

I hope you enjoy your Monday, but if you have to fake a little enthusiasm too, I won't blame you. Unless you are Ron Livingston and happen to work with this lady:
