Braids + flowy top + fringe booties + beaded bracelet = hippie chic 🙂 I love this purple top… I bought it back in November to take to New Orleans and now it is one of my favorites! The deep, majestic purple ups the ante of any outfit and I love versatile pieces… this can be paired with anything from jeans to dress pants to skirts! Same goes for these Sam Edelman booties 🙂

pants- J. Crew, jacket- Old Navy (old), top- Madewell, booties- Sam Edelman, necklace- Lucky, bag- old, sunglasses- Ray-Ban, bracelet- Charlotte Russe (old)

I brought out my old jean jacket here to dress down the ensemble a bit… what do you think?

Also, last night I took my first dance class since about third grade… burlesque! It was a lot of fun but I realized I’m a little too uptight… I’ll add that to my list of things I need to work on for 2013. I definitely need to let loose a little more but just the fact that I went and got out of my comfort zone is certainly a step in the right direction (for those of you who are counting, that makes two for this month: rock climbing and a burlesque dance class)!

Here’s to trying new things and to working towards a better you! What is something new that you’d like to try?

Have a great Wednesday!
