Chels Wears: Super Casual

Shirt: Victoria's Secret | Pants & Sweatshirt: WalMart | Glasses: Rue21 | Shoes: Kandals | Bag: Target

Alright, this outfit is nothing special. I know that. But while I do "dress up" a lot, I wanted to show that I really do have "off" days too. I know that blogging, especially fashion blogging, can often times give a false sense of who someone is. And because I've been crazy busy lately, I don't always have time or, honestly, care enough to dress up during the day when I know I'm just going to bartend at night. (Which inevitably leads to a keg kicking and me getting splashed with beer.) So, here's a very average, as of recently, look for me. I'm sure I'll be back to my fancy pants soon, but for today, this super soft sweatshirt is really all I want. In other news...check out that serious bun head.

Valentine's For Yourself!

1. Keys To Your Heart Pillow from ModCloth

Cute phrase, cute graphic & how do you show yourself love more than taking a nap.

2. Blossom & Beautiful from Bella J

Fabulous facial cleanser products from a great company focused on empowering their customers & making 100% natural products.

3. Nichola Pumps from ShoeDIVA Boutique

How gorgeous are these shoes!? I want them soooooo badly.

4. Endless Love Engraved Midi Ring from Urban Outfitters

Such a cute ring and you should always show endless love to yourself, this gives you a little reminder!

5. Water Bottle by PINK from Victoria's Secret

I honestly have gone through hundreds of these water bottles. I cannot live without them!

6. Hugs Keep Us Alive T-Shirt from Threadless

I'm in love with this tee! Such a cute graphic and can easily be styled.

7. Write That Shit Down Notepad by JulieAnnArt

These notepads are so handy. I love Julie and all of her products. She's such an inspiration.

8. Committed: A Love Story by Elizabeth Gilbert

This book is fabulous for you marriage skeptics! I read it over the summer and loved it. It is sort of the sequel to Eat, Pray, Love and I cannot recommend it enough.

I'll admit. I do like Valentine's Day. Not the over the top, guys going crazy to impress their ladies kind of Valentine's Day, but the showing others you appreciate and care about them type of day. Every year I send some girlfriends a Valentine and give my brother and parents a little something, and of course MJ always plans something special, which I don't mind being spoiled with, but the most important person to show love to, honestly, is yourself. Single or not, it's always good to put yourself first some times and Valentine's Day is the perfect time to do so! So with that in mind, these are some of my picks for how to treat yourself this Valentine's Day. Enjoy!

Fashion Forward Fridays: Meet Christy!

Last semester, when I met Christy for the first time, I was so jealous of how effortlessly she was able to pull different pieces together to create such classic looks. We had a design class together and she was fabulous at creating projects and fabulous looking, even if she showed up in sweats. I hate girls like that, but it's hard not to like Christy because she's so personable and expressive. So when I walked into night class on Thursday for the first time this semester for another design class, I was so excited to see a familiar face and that face be hers. I also was so relieved to see that she was, of course, dressed in a simple yet classy outfit so I could feature her for Fashion Forward Fridays.
