So the last outfit was totally off the beaten path........but I like to push myself outside of my comfort zone on the weekends.  I tend to stick with styles I'm comfortable with during the week for work so this was a nice change of pace.

I finally have most of my summer things unpacked and I'm re-evaluating the fit of some of my previous fave's.  For instance, the white wide legged trousers from Loft may not be the most flattering for my body type..........what do you guys think?  I can always try it with a different style of top if you think that might make a difference.  Any suggestions?

Happy Friday Dear Friends!

  2. Lovely outfits! I love that Anthro necklace, I'm looking for one like it. And I love trouser pants with a button-down shirt and heels for work wear. Or just a fitted tank and heels for a casual 70s look.

  3. Each of your outfits are so different from one another (yet consistent through the underlying whimsical style). I just love all the colors and layering pieces you choose!

    And I totally thought you bought the lace skirt too from AT factory when...of course you just creatively wore a top and belt over the dress!

  4. Love your style. All your outfits are inspiring and make me want to break out of my all black boring outfits. I like how you styled the orange loft dress (I bought this dress too). The white wide legged trousers from Loft look nice on you and you styled it perfectly. I feel that if you were to wear a more fitted top with them then the pants may appear baggy. Love your glasses, I'm looking for a new pair, where did you get them?

    Hey Short Sister Style!....I found mine on ebay so they're def still out there ;)

    Thank you so much Jean ;) ....honestly I did think about buying the skirt too 'till it dawned on me that the dress was low cut enough to pull double duty as a skirt as well!

    Hi Holly! Thank you for the ideas for the white trousers, I'll try it out. The glasses I got just recently from Vision first (they're perscription) and the brand is Vivid ;)

  9. Ahh! I LOVE outfit #2! Can you wear it as a dress so we can see how that looks on you? No alterations, right? It hits you at the perfect length -- that's where I wish mine hits me. And the pairing with the top? Genius :)

  21. Your posts are one of the highlights of my week! Seriously, you need to do this for a living (wait, do you do this for a living?)!

    I actually attempted to comment after you first posted this, but I was in Louisiana with bad reception and just as I hit the "post comment" button, I lost my wireless signal!! Urgh!
    Anyway, Callandra, I love every outfit, but the third and last are two that I would see in a mag and want to copy. You've got it goin' on, girl!

  28. A refresher http://www.future-enjoy.com/
    Before we fully answer the question of if watch winders are safe, we need to quickly review how a watch http://www.future-enjoy.com/ winder works. Most luxury watches are automatic and operate without a battery. They keep themselves wound by the movement on your wrist. If the watch is not worn regularly, it will fairly quickly stop working, normally after 72 hours. The body of the watch contains weights, springs, rotors, mechanisms, gears etc. The movements keeps the mainspring wound and the subsequent energy powers the watch. A watch winder is mains- or battery-operated device that holds the watch in a casing and gently rotates or rocks the watch to mimic it being worn on the wrist. Each watch winder brand has different movement options, turns per day and pause functions
