Blazer: Forever 21/Top:Plato’s Closet/Pants: Banana Republic/Jewerly: J Crew (Via Ebay)/ Shoes: Gift |
I will never get rid of this shirt, even if Nina Garcia decided polka dots were out. (I adore her so that is saying quite a lot) |
The night that the boyfriend helped me with these photos he was feeling a bit….ornery. So I have photographs of me yelling, putting on the jacket, bending over, pretty much anything but me actually looking at the camera. Naturally the ones of me falling over/picking up things were in focus but the ones of me smiling weren’t. Funny how that works. Grrr.
In other news, I swear that sometimes it is like a competition to look the worst to classes. I’m not talking about running around in running shorts, etc. I’m talking about you physically look like you spent time to look that bad. This one girl literally wore her cartoon pants to class. It is with this happening at 8a.m. classes that when I stroll into class wearing a blazer people think I am a substitute teacher. Twice, TWICE I got asked what I taught, if anyone asked me again I was going to make up some super deep major and then proceed to say whatever came into my head. Anyway, when people dress that badly to go to class I always want to dress up more, I of course have my days where I run around in gym shorts but come on! Put some effort into it!

Haha, I love these pictures because you are just adorable! I know… a lot of people don't put in much effort and then they think YOU'RE weird for wearing a good outfit. Oh well to them!

I don't know how people can dress so bad in the mornings. I'm up at 6am to work out so after my shower I guess I have a tendency to dress a little nicer, but still! It's not that hard to put on some jeans and a decent shirt you didn't sleep in, lol.
You look lovely. I adore the spots and that structured blazer. 🙂

That polka dot top is the cutest! I can't believe they asked if you were a teacher…you just dress well! The whole wearing pajamas to class thing is pretty pathetic 🙂

Haha, dumbos!!! It really annoyed me seeing how girls dressed when I was in school. I didn't dress up too much but I never wore sweatpants or pj pants. I wore jeans, skirts, sweaters and I had one blazer, ha ha
I love this outfit, the photos are so cute

I SO understand. I walk around in jackets/blazers and nice jeans/trousers while everyone else is in shorts and t-shirts. But I just walk with my head held high no matter what!

You look so cute! Don't give into peer pressure and start wearing pajamas! I was a substitute HS teacher and everyone thought I was a student…haha. So at least you have the ability to look more mature and sophisticated 🙂

You're adorable! Love this outfit and your curly hair 🙂 That is hilarious that you got asked what you teach… I guess a blazer instantly makes you a teacher these days?!

Hi there Alissa. I love your name first and foremost.
You got me hooked on your blog all day yesterday & the day before yesterday (when I found it) so I have been reading along since the very first post.
This Polka-dot top is my favorite you own and obviously you like it too since you wear it often. I love this outfit, how simple & sophisticated it is. Take the substitute teacher thing as a compliment. I am pinning this. I don't always agree with Nina Garcia. Polka dots can never be out of style.
Please check out my little corner of the world and start following me. Thanks, Ada. =)
