New Sponsor-- Club Couture!

Packages, packages!! This time my friends at Club Couture have sent a package my way! Lots of goodies!!

I LOVE this dress to death. This was the first item I knew I had to have from their website!!

Aruughh it's SO CUTE up close! I'm going to wear this with my Jeffrey Campbell floral litas!!

Every girl needs a nice black dress, right?? Assymetry and sheer layers are definitely in right now!

So pretty!!

This dress looks so "hippie chic" to me. I love the earthy tones!

I hadn't noticed just HOW COOL the straps were until it arrived. How unique, I really love it!

To my surprise, Club Couture was nice enough to send me an item I hadn't even picked. I love the light, summery feeling it has to it!

So delicate!!

New Sponsor-- OH MY FROCK

Packages packages packages!! This is from my lovely friends at OH MY FROCK.

I am stupidly obsessed with this shirt. I've been wearing it around the house for at least 3 days straight. It's SO comfortable!!

It reminds me of traffic lights at night. I like wearing it to the bar paired with my denim shorts!

I am seriously IN. LOVE. WITH THIS. I wore it yesterday in the snow! It was our first snow, too!

The details are simply amazing. This is some good lace!!

This material is so cool!

This actually came paired with the first top. It's not exactly my taste, but I know I can make it work! I like a challenge!!

In love with this new dress, c/o Romwe!

It's so shiny and comfortable! It fits so perfect! I really like wearing it with my necklace from OS, and my naturally collected coyote bone necklace my friend Jenna gave me!

I think Jeffrey Campbell's lita's go perfect with the outfit!

This is such a pretty area!!

New friend & sponsor, SWELL!!

I've said it before, and I'll say it again--I LOVE getting new packages in the mail! (Don't we all?!)

This time, the package is from my awesome friends at SWELL! Everyone there is so nice, I'm very glad to be working with them. Please stay tuned to my blog, and their website, as I'll be guest blogging for them from time to time!

I've been a fan of the brand "Jen's Pirate Booty" for awhile now, and didn't even really think I'd have the chance to have one of their dresses. Boy, was I wrong! This dress makes me feel a bit like a pirate wench. Arrr!!

I know probably way more than I should about lace, and let me tell you--this is fabulous lace!

I was REALLY excited to receive this dress from the "Spare" section on SWELL'S website. It was one of those things that I wasn't sure if I was going to like until I tried it on, but when I did, I knew I'd made the right decision to choose this dress! It fits my style well, don't you think?

The fringe detail is siiick! Definitely in right now.

Night Driver, drifitin' home again // Wearing my new Jeffrey Campbell's!

I swear, this vintage tee is probably one of my favourite shirts. My boyfriend found it for me! He has such a good eye!

We took all these pictures in probably less than 5 minutes. There are cougars in the area, and there was something huge rustling around in the bushes, so. We're outie!!

I'm also in LOVE with my new bone cross necklace. My friend Jenna got it for me as one of my Christmas presents! It's made from naturally collected coyote phalanges! (Although I like to be silly and pretend that they're human, because they're about the same size, haha)

My new shoes!! I've already worn them 4 or 5 times this year, because I am truly obsessed.

A peak at Crash & Burn Apparel! // My new olive parka!

I know I gave a bit into a sneak peak of one of the items I received from Crash & Burn Apparel, but I figured I'd show off everything! MUCH love to everyone at Crash & Burn for sending these to me. I love them SO much! I can't wait to take more photos in these clothes!!

I LOVE my this skeleton Marie Antoinette top!

It says "LIVE FAST, DIE PRETTY" on it, and even has little gem embellishments!!

This top is awesome, too! I love the faded wash on it.

Okay okay, I bought into the olive parka trend. I'd been wanting one forever!! Got this on sale at JC Penny for like $10. Isn't that a steal?!

My boyfriend and I actually took these photos a long time ago. It appears they were lost in the sands of time, because I just found them the other day!

I actually REALLY love this sweater, it's relatively new, and one of my favourites!

The detailing on the sweater is just FABULOUS!

These trees are pretty.
