tribal maxi //fun in the sun

(my new obsession)

 

Hello Loves.  It has taken me awhile to get on the tribal print bandwagon, but I could not resist it in this maxi dress!  If you are like me you are equally obsessed with these dresses for their cuteness, and versatility. Oh, and throw a sweater or button up with it and we have work appropriate too, CHA-CHING!!

 

This week has been my first week of summer break.  I am still working, at a local bank that I have worked at on and off since college. It is such an amazing job.. great hours and great people.  I have trouble sitting still, so I love keeping busy and keeping in budget by still working!! :-)

 

This Friday is my sister and I's birthday! We are spending the day together tomorrow and I am sooo excited, I cannot wait to post about it.  My sister is very special to me.  How lucky I am that we also get to share the same birthday!!

Happy Tuesday All!

 

It was a hot one in OKC today (welcome summer!).  Somehow, even when it's 92 outside, it is still 65 inside work.  I am happy I had this fuzzy sweater to wear with todays ensemble to keep me warm.  The rest of the outfit made me feel nice and sunny all day though.  Points for me adding pops of color, still my yearly goal of brightening my neutral heavy wardrobe.

 

Not too much to report here, except I finally started watching Dexter today (a bit delayed, I know).  I find it really interesting but definitely a bit gross at the same time.  Does it get better? Worse? Is this a good summer watch?

 

What else can I add to my summer Netflix queue?

 

Love,

 

Amanda

long time no see

Hello, my long lost loves.  Somehow OKCGlam has suffered due to end of the year teacher doldrums and straight-up craziness!  I have survived the final quarter of our school year.   This included our district art show, school musical, retirement parties, slews of 5th grade activities plus attempts at having a social life and a career... phew!  No wonder I slept over 12 hours last night. #sorrynotsorry

 

This week I am teaching at a local art school/gallery/studio called Oklahoma Contemporary.  I am teaching sweet 5-7 year olds art this week and I am loving it!

 

I also love that I can wear heels at this job and not die.  I'm sure you other fashionista's understand!!

 

Here is my first summer work and summer play outfit. I love wearing outfits that are cute enough to wear straight from work to dinner with friends or wherever the day is taking me.

 

What are your summer outfit inspirations? Leave me some love!
