Mini Houndstooth. Mini Facts.

{Top: eShakti | Jeans: Just Fabulous | Boots: Steve Madden | Heart pin: bando | Bangles: Old Navy | Watch: Nordstrom}

So, this is my favorite piece so far that I've gotten from eShakti! I love the silhouette, the mini olive houndstooth, the epaulets, and the brass buttons! Precious! [If you're interested in snagging one of your own, you can still use my special discount code DAILYDANI0811 for $20 off your order through the end of the year!]

Au Francais. One of my most favorite prints/art that I have on my wall is a French High Fidelity poster I found in a random shop I happened upon in a little hidden alley in Paris.

Kling-On. In 9th grade, my boyfriend and I bumped heads at lunch, which caused my forehead to swell up into the size of a grapefruit, and later drain down into my face causing two black eyes. I still have a small bump above my eyebrow.

{Oh yeah, I bet you thought I was exaggerating...}

Couple Crush. In following last weeks comedy crush suit, let it be known that I have a big fat couple crush on Amy Poehler and Will Arnett. Separately: Fantastic. As one: Perfection.

Fluffy Little Facts

Remember the other day when I said I felt like a marshmallow? Well...

Work: As much as I love fashion, I only ever worked retail for one summer. And it was at abercrombie kids. Don't judge me.
Dessert: I didn't like cake until I was about 16. I only like white cake and funfetti.
Funny man: I've recently come to the realization that I have an awkward crush on Adam Scott. Party Down, Step Brothers, and Parks & Rec. I'm in like. [P.S. Click on that Step Brothers link back there. That scene pretty much changed my life, to be hyperbolic about it.]

Marshmallows & Little Facts

{Dress: American Apparel | Turtleneck: Target | Boots: Steve Madden | Socks: We Love Colors | Watch: Nordstrom}

I must say, I felt like a bit of a marshmallow puff in this. I actually got a lot of compliments on how I looked in it, and it was very comfortable, but I kind of felt like an oversized pillowcase. Oh well!

Today's little facts are brought to you from the land of the 3-year-olds...
E Street: Today, when I asked a Kindergartener what he wanted to be when he grew up, his first reply was "play in Bruce Springsteen's band." You and me both, friend... You and me both.
Flu: I have never gotten a flu shot, even though I've taught preschool since 2006. It's a wonder I don't get sick more often, considering how many runny noses I wipe everyday. (Ick.)
Nanny: Today, a boy in my class asked me if I had a Nanny to take care of me. I wish.

Little stripes. Little facts.

{Sweater & Watch: Nordstrom | Jeans: J. Crew | Flats: Jessica Simpson | Necklace: Luna}

Expensive make-up. When I put a limit on my clothing shopping this year, I developed an affinity for scouring the pages of the Sephora website for hours. Today, I dropped my Too Faced Snow Bunny bronzer, and it shattered into a million pieces. And I didn't even cry.
Earrings. I haven't worn earrings for the past 3 days, and that's probably the longest I've gone without wearing earrings since I got them pierced when I was 7.
Prints. I have an overwhelming addiction to purchasing art prints. Etsy is my sickness. I have high ceilings in my bedroom and no ladder. Sigh.

Dalmatians, Leopards, & Little Facts.

{Sweatshirt: Forever 21 | Cut-offs: Abercrombie & Fitch DIY | Boots: Steve Madden | Belt: Vintage via Urban Renewal | Watch: Nordstrom | Turquoise ring: Luna}

I have but one question: is this print leopard or dalmatian? You be the judge.

1. I didn't eat any Halloween candy this year, which is half comforting and half depressing.
2. My most frequently recurring dream theme has been tidal waves since I was little.
3. On Monday, I listened to 27 Get Up Kids songs in a row and it made my day incredibly magical, aside from the fact that I am having a really hard time picking a true favorite.

Print Bipolarity

{Plaid shirt: PINK Victoria's Secret | Pants: Tripp NYC | Jacket: Target | Scarf: Foreign Exchange | Flats: Blowfish via Century 21}

I was very iffy about this outfit today. I was super comfortable, and loved each piece, but couldn't decide if my print mixing was a little too bipolar or not? Then I asked myself, "What Would Blair Eadie Do?" and decided it was ok.

Today is Wednesday, which means it's a Little Facts day!

Favorite food: Hot dogs. Usually plain with ketchup, but sometimes cheese or guacamole are acceptable.
Lifelong man crush: John Stamos.
Not-quite-lifelong girl crush: Lauren Conrad.

Bipolar Weather + Little Facts.

{Hat & Pants: Luna | Tee: Victoria's Secret | Jacket: Mom's | Flats: Chinese Laundry via TJ Maxx}

This morning, it was 60 degrees and drizzling. By 1pm, it was 85 degrees. What the what, So Cal?! Get it TOGETHER.

Last big smile: My best friend Karla called me from CHINA Sunday night!
My favorite candy: Reese's peanut butter cups.
Current fashion love: Red & orange autumnal tones.

Three.

{T-shirt: American Apparel | Shorts: Seven For All Mankind DIY | Blazer: Forever 21 | Shoes: ShoeDazzle | Watch: Nordstrom | Necklace: Luna}

Three things:
1. This outfit was inspired by Emily's outfit on Cupcakes and Cashmere the other day. It was the perfect "does the weather feel like being warm or cold today?" outfit! I'm in love with the leopard lining and with this lovely necklace!

2. It's Wednesday! That means a Little Facts day!
Current hate: Modern technology. It's a blessing and a curse.
My cats' names: Owen and Zachary.
I'm watching: Watch What Happens Live with Sarah Jessica Parker!

3. Do you see the lovely friendship bracelets I have on?! I got these through the Chasing Davies friendship bracelet swap! I was so incredibly lucky to be paired up with Emma of Behind The Leopard Glasses! Not only did she send me this lovely classic black and gold bracelet (right wrist), but she sent me something else very special. On my left wrist, next to my watch, you can see one of the Italian string bracelets that Emma sent me! Her family is Italian, and she was kind enough to part with a couple to share with me! You are to make a wish with every knot you tie and put it in a body of water when they fall off! A MAJOR thank you to Emma! (I hope my wish comes true!) Head over to Emma's post to see what I sent her!

More fringe + Little facts!

{Sweater & Scarf: Luna | Jeans: American Apparel | Flats: Soda via Century 21 | Watch: Nordstrom | Earrings: Target}

Oh, good! I've found a way to extend my daily need for fringe. I have to admit, I'm a little jealous that someone is actually paid to shred up a tube of fabric, but hey, I went ahead and bought it, so I guess I'm feeding into it. When I woke up to a rainstorm, I had to pump some light into my life with these bubblegum pink jeans and bright orange earrings. Then I had to spend my day stuck inside with 3-year-olds. It's like watching animals in an unnatural habitat. Poor kids need fresh air.
