Busting Out for Peachy Keen


Today was the first style event hosted by Atlanta Style Bloggers (ASB for short) and I had to take part in it! I always want to challenge myself when it comes to fashion and I love to gain insight as to how my fellow peers' creative juices are flowing. This appropriately named event Peachy Keen did just that...so far. I was challenged because I didn't own anything peach! I know I know...I'm a Georgia Peach without an ounce of peach in my closet or makeup bag. Goodwill Kennesaw saved me though! When I found this shirt, I kneeeew I had to do a lil color blocking! I have to say the skirt complemented the color of the shirt nicely.




Taking pictures today was a little hetic...I just started my dietetic internship at Life University (God is soooo good!) and we were in class all morning! By lunch I was itching to head outside, warm up, and take pictures. I changed my shoes (people are not really fashion minded here sooo I didn't want to stick out even more in heels, let alone snake print heels) and got to it! I almost fell in the bushes...and yup there were people there to see it all. They were supportive, I think cuz they smiled. Or maybe they were masking their laughter. Anywho, I had to hurry too because we only get 1 hour for lunch and I needed to get out of that heat.


Where I almost fell in the PRICKLY BUSH!

What I wore: Shirt-thrifted | Skirt- New York & Co (old) | Shoes-Steve Madden | Necklace & Ring- DIY's that I made! | Bangle- Target | Watch- Michael Kors

I really enjoyed the style event...and look forward to the many more that will be hosted! Keep bustin out loves!!
