Flight of Fancy

---flight of fancy : an unrealistic idea or fantastic notion, a pipe dream.
Here are some yesterday-photos! I wasn't too happy about my Tuesday post (outfit-wise) so I'm hoping this Thursday post will make up for that! I actually really like these photos, which (as many of you probably feel as well) made me feel confident and excited yesterday when I was editing them! And more happy today as I'm posting them!

My mom surprised me with these leopard print tights a bit ago, and I had been waiting to wear them! I decided yesterday was perfect - even if it mean mixing a few patterns along the way. ;) The addition of the green flats and scarfs rounded off the outfit, in my opinion. I enjoyed the colors. One of my favorite combination at the moment! What colors combos are your current favorites?

It's nearly Friday! My weekend looks to be busy. Saturday I'm going to start an interning job at a store downtown (more of which I'll share later) and only a few hours later, I have another Rockband concert! It's called the acoustic show, but we are only doing one acoustic song. Hopefully there will be photos from this to come! Sunday I'm singing with the praise band early in the morn'...and Monday (Martin Luther King Jr. Day!), I may be going into the city to go thrifting with my friends! Busybusy. Hopefully fun!

What are your plans for the weekend? & please don't forget to enter my giveaway. ♥

    Great Great Outfit!!! And now I will kick myself because I just got home from Target and almost bought those tights, but put them back for boring black ones. You made them look great with your pattern mixing:)

    ok, I NEED to come live where you are. It looks so beautiful there with all the colours and sun! Maybe I'll just come visit for the winter and get out of this silly place! I think your scarf and shoes totally complete this outfit. I also like your necklace combo. I might have to try the pearls with the gold.

    the pops of green are unexpected but really kind of perfect. I know how you feel about wearing an outfit and not feeling 100% about it but then how confident you can feel when you're wearing something that you really love. The right outfit can definitely put a little sass in your step :)

    Loving the pattern mixing. Great look!

    I am looking forward to spring recycling. I want to throw out all those things that "will be useful some day" so my shoebox home feels a little more roomie again :)
    Happy weekend!

    Eeeep, I almost bought that sweater (or one like it) from UO yesterday! Now I kinda wish I had. I love the polka dots underneath as well!

    Sounds like you'll be a busy lady this weekend! Good luck with everything and your internship!

    SO as the photos were loading I was thinking "oh my! I love pearls!" Then it got further down and I said "Look at those awesome tights!" then when it got to the green shoes I started googling where to find some. LOVE the shoes.

    You look great.

    And yes, I will say it on every post.

    I love your hair. I want to cut mine off whenever I see yours.
