30for30: THIRTY!


This is it. The last one. I went out with a bang. And by a bang I mean bright red lips, big sunglasses, and short shorts. It was a little warmer today so this outfit was perfect for the weather and it's perfect as my number 30. I absolutely love this outfit! 

I wanted to wait until a little later to take these in the beautiful Alabama sunset, but Chris called me a little after lunch and said we are going to a Christmas party tonight with several important people he works with. So I rushed out to take these, I'm posting now, and right after this post I'm going to be scrambling around this house to find the right look for a first impression! Despite the stress of what to wear, I'm super excited about going to this party! I can't wait to meet new people - which I'm not always that kind of person, sometimes I thoroughly enjoying being a recluse, but tonight I'm definitely excited to be out and about. 

I can't believe this challenge is over, but at the same time it feels like it's been going on f.o.r.e.v.e.r. I have lots to say about the challenge and I hope to have that post up soon! Until then, you all have a wonderful weekend!

Top/Cardi/Necklace: Target
Shorts: Forever21
Tights/Sunglasses: Betsey Johnson
Booties: Steve Madden
