Let Them Wear Cake!

Blazer- Thrifted, T-shirt- Forever21, Headband- my mom's sweater tie, Cropped pants- Express, Wedges- UrbanOG.com

I love mixing the colors cream and light blue, partially because it reminds me of the birthday cake we get each year-- devil's food cake with real whipped cream and blue flowers! (mm-mmmm!) It's also a cleaner option than literally wearing cake, as my numerous childhood photos document. (The bf would argue that not much has changed!)

To the right, you'll notice I just put up a banner for the ebay link (it's not officially a store yet, I have to sell stuff first!).  I know it doesn't look super exciting right now, but we all have to start somewhere! Later I want to just make it a stand alone website.  It's been a trial and error process so far-- any tips are welcome :)
