Last week, Pittsburgh decided it wanted summer and it wasn't going to wait. After a chilly and rainy weekend in Texas, I wasn't going to complain about it either. Sometimes I hate how much the weather affects my mood, I love being in a good mood- don't get me wrong- but the difference a little sun and warmth make is sometimes shocking- both my mood and my productivity level skyrocket (I cleaned my car!).

Along with a good mood, the warm weather brought with it plenty of new inspiration. This black dress has long been a favorite of mine, and I'm always looking for new ways to mix it up. I love it because it's comfortable, easy to wear, and makes me feel a little like Stevie Nicks-lite. I received this high-low hem skirt-thing at the Lulu's Swap in Austin, and have been playing around with how to wear it- layering it over pants, skirts, and dresses-and the two just fit together perfectly. I've been hemming and hawing over whether or not to keep these boots- I thrifted them a year ago and have only worn them twice- but actually really loved how they looked with a long sheer skirt. It was just incredibly refreshing to wear something different, and shed some layers.

Have you tried anything new style-wise lately?
