When Kyle saw this outfit, he exclaimed "Aww! I didn't know it was ballerina day!". I decided to pull this dress out that Kyle bought me last year, that I have only worn once. I remember seeing it and loving it right away. The only other time I wore it, was to go to a party at Cliff Bell's in Detroit and I remember that I had just dyed my hair black and when I put on this dress I felt like Cleopatra. I think I didn't bother styling it up again because last year at this time, it seemed like every fashion blogger had one and I just gave up on trying to style it. After wearing this Rodarte for Target number, I thought up of  a bunch of ways to wear it. Which makes me happy because Kyle bought it for me, and I do want to wear it.

Oh and check out this pretty necklace I won from Cafe Fashionista's giveaway! I forgot to mention it last time I wore it.Whoops.

Right now I am currently enjoying being the only one awake in the apartment-which is odd since Louie is the one who woke me up and is  now snoozing in my spot in the bed-and it's already past 10am!  I kind of love being the only one awake sometimes. I have a long weekend of homework and paper writing ahead of me, meh. The only thing I really am looking forward to is the break we are getting in three weeks. Time for coffee.

  10. You were awake around the same time I left for the dentist. Yea...just thought I'd throw that in there.

    Anyway, I looooooooooove your sweater. It is the cutest. I just got one from the men's section (it doesn't even look like a mens sweater although the tag swears it is but whatever) of Value World. It's the best thing ever. So comfy.
