My little sister, Lindsay, arrived in the grand old state of Oklahoma on Monday. Girl hasn’t been too far out of California, so the Midwest was a whole new world for her.
We explored the little college town of Norman on Tuesday (go Sooners!) — this town is too cute. It reminds me a lot of my hometown Chico.
When Kelsi was here a few months ago, we sifted through a thrift store and stumbled upon TWO of these Melie Bianco bags, each for $12. I knew it was a deal, especially because it was practically brand new.
Lindsay and I walked into a little boutique in Norman and the woman pointed to my bag and noticed that it looked like the ones they just got into their store. I turned around and there was the exact same Melie bag I had on my shoulder in a seaform green color. I looked at the tag, $80. Pretty sure that’s awesome, right?
We loved seeing these red phone booths all over town and campus. I started to pretend I was in London, but it didn’t feel very authentic. Mostly because these booths, thankfully, didn’t smell like urine.

March 10th 2012 - Day
Like most of the girls attending the Texas Style Council, I fretted over what to wear for weeks (okay, months) in advance. I had originally planned on wearing a lovely flowing maxi dress with strappy sandals and a jean jacket for this particular day. As you can tell, it was a bit too soggy and cold for that kind of get-up.
This blazer, though you can’t tell from photos, has a high-low profile and hangs perfectly on me. Often during big events and parties, I feel a bit out of place in my outfits, however I never once felt that way wearing this. It could have been the company I was keeping, but overall — I think you can’t go wrong with black, white and red.
Unless you’re a bloody zebra. Then I’m sorry, you’re probably about to become Simba’s lunch.
