Go Colts!

Go Colts! by wanna-be-fashionista featuring tall boots

You all may or may not know this, but I love football! My favorite team (besides Mizzou of course) are the Indianapolis Colts! My boys advanced to the playoffs this season and play their first game today against the Kansas City Cheifs and this lucky girl has tickets! 

I want to make sure I was comfy, but warm walking to the stadium and cheering on my team, so I went for a long sleeve shirt and winter vest. It's the perfect fashion forward combo, but will also keep me comfortable and warm. 

I opted for riding boots instead of UGGS because mine are a bit cheaper (or a lot cheaper!) so if any fans get a little too crazy, my boots won't suffer because of it. However, with the amount of snow we've gotten here in Indiana, I might go for my Hunter rain boots instead! 

What do you like to wear on game day? I'd love to get ideas! 

In the meantime, go Colts! 

                                                   

NYE Under $150

NYE by wanna-be-fashionista featuring long sleeve dresses

Happy New Year! I hope you all enjoyed your holidays and your New Years Eve! Unfortunately, I was sick during the holidays and didn't have much energy to go out last night, but I did enjoy a night back at my hometown church and watching the ball drop from my parent's big comfy chair.

I'd like to think if I did go out, this is what I would have ended up in. Most girls go for sequins, but I personally think looking sleek in black, hints of gold and pearls will never be a bad idea! Plus, this outfit pictured above is all under $150 and they are all pieces you can wear again (unlike that sequined two piece outfit Miley choose to wear, am I right?).

Anyway, I trust you all had a wonderful night and hopefully a fun day of recovering. I wish you all luck, prosperity and many blessings in the new year. I know it's going to be great!

Stay Beautiful,

Brittany 

Back to School

I'll admit, I had some trouble creating this (and I'm still not sure I am happy with it) maybe its because I don't even know what I am wearing for my first day. I mean I'll be starting my junior year, usually by then most college students are done trying, but I just can't leave my house in something typical, I like dressing up, plus, I'll be doing it in two years anyway, what better practice than to do it now.

I think my problem with this outfit is that its a lot of trends in one outfit: lace shorts, peplum top and pop of color blazer. I love them all, but I'm not sure they would all go together. Plus, with missouri weather, it'll probably be too hot for a blazer anyway.

I guess it comes down to rocking whatever you feel comfortable in. I'm sure I'll end up in black shorts and an oversized vnecks and just play it up with accessories, it comfy and easy. 

I'll be headed back to Columbia tomorrow for work training and I am excited, but not quite ready to leave, I think I just wanted a day or two more to sleep in, but seeing as though I don't work until 1:3o the rest of the week, that may be possible.

Anyway, I wish you all the best of luck as you start school, strut around your campuses and hallways with style like I know you will.

Stay beautiful,

Brittany 

A New Beginning

Hello everyone! Well, it's probably no surprise, but I did it again. I neglected this blog. It's crazy how much I can be on other social networking sites from day to day, but forget this one. I even update my weight loss blog more often! I decided once school starts, Friday will be Ramen Fashion day. I don't have Friday classes and I won't be working until around noon, that gives me all morning to whip up an outfit! I also hope to be doing some styling for a friends upcoming event, I just need a photographer, or a camera, so get started. 

This summer it kind of hit me that I am half way through college, I've got to start creating a name for myself. I mean, the competition at Mizzou alone is fierce, I can't imagine it nationwide. I want to be great, I will be great and as  Public Relations major, I have not been doing a very good job publicizing myself and building my brand.

Think of this as a new beginning. All of my sets will have my blogs name at the top (which I soon up to buy as a domain) and I will update this blog at least once a week once school starts (August 19). I really want to have something great to show employers as I begin to apply for internships and even jobs. 

So here is my promise to all of you, I, Brittany, will absolutely, postively get better at updating this blog. I love fashion and I know it is the industry I belong in. So no longer will I let my laziness or my timidness get the best of me!

Until next time,

Brittany

Roadtrip to KC

So I am going to Kansas City this weekend to shop and see my best friend and it's supposed to be nice so this is what I plan on wearing, I'm so excited! It's always nice to get out of Columbia, what do you all plan on doing this weekend?

Spring Break...is over :(

Well kiddos, Spring Break is officially coming to a close and I am so sad. No I didn't lay out on a gorgeous beach or anything, but sleeping in, eating whatever I've wanted, not going to the gym has been perfect.

But classes and work start again tomorrow. This is pretty much what I lounged around in all day (except I wish my vneck had giraffes on it!). Didn't do much, but read a bit for my lit class, sit on Tumblr all day and I signed my lease! So yay for a little productivity, but I'm going to have to do better. So much to do this week!

6 weeks and the summer, I can do this!
