Wanted: everything from ALDO Rise

ALDO Rise is a project created by the powerhouse shoe company ALDO that began a few months ago in which it collaborates with up-and-coming skilled young designers to create outstanding shoes.

[Dress- c/o Lulus.com, Skirt- Costablanca, Shoes- c/o Aldo, Bag- Aldo, Sunglasses- Marc by Marc Jacobs c/o Barneys] This mint dress was sent to me from Lulus.com and even though it was far too short for my 6’ self to wear as a dress I still loved it. I have received a few dresses from them now and all have been long enough so if you are tall and love the dresses from Lulus then for sure order them, this was just a random case of mini dress being too mini. I fixed the problem by layering it over a skirt I bought from Costablanca probably 9 years ago now. I cannot wait to play around with this pretty piece. I think I may look for a layered light skirt to put underneath when I go out shopping for plain black flats later today. Speaking of which I hate looking for black flats. I have big feet and flats never look as cute as they would on someone with normal sized feet. I also dislike rounded toes and overly pointed ones and I like them to cut low on the toe so all of my pickiness makes it very difficult to find suitable ones. Wish me luck! xx

[Blouse- c/o Millie Loves Min, Sunglasses- c/o Romwe, Bag- Aldo, Shorts- BCBG Max Azria] Another beautiful day. I came home from class and pretty much threw on pyjamas and took my dog for a walk. I am seriously digging this laid back trend because it feeds into my lazy lifestyle. I am definitely going to exploit this look all summer. Too bad that after today I will have to wait a little while before my pale legs will see the light of day again as the temperature is going down next week.  Anyways, back to homework I go. I have 10 sketches to do and 3 hours of TV shows to watch while doing them. Yes, it is going to be one of those nights. xx

[Ring & Clutch- AldoShoes, Tights- Nicole Miller]  I am officially back from my holiday absence. Again, as always, I apologize for being MIA for the past 2-3 weeks. For me the holidays begin the minute I am done classes and ends the minute I go back. Seeing as I go back to school this Monday I am clearly back a little early because I missed you guys. I have been running around non stop and I think I have booked just as many hours on the train as I did when I was going to class.  The rest of my time off of school is dedicated to vegging out, shopping, finishing Modern Family, blogging and seeing friends. How was everyone holidays?
