Zoo Day

Hey Ladies,

Yesterday, my part-time job sponsored zoo day! I hadn't been to the zoo since I was in the 8th grade! Needless to say it was a fun and nostalgic time. I took my neice, great niece, my little cousin and my godson. We had soooo much fun! I wish I would have had my new camera so that I could have captured some nice photos. We did snap a few on my iPhone which aren't that bad.

I had to choose something to wear to my full-time day job that would be comfortable enough to play double duty for the zoo. So I chose an easy breezy maxi.  This outfit was comfy but definitely not suitable for the zoo, my dress was too long and dirt kept "sneaking" in my sandals. lol.

I threw on a blazer on top of it to make the look more office friendly.

Here's what I wore

Blazer: Thrifted ($1.60)  Maxi: Forever21 ($10.50)  Bag: A Girls Next Best Friend (I really love this bag thx J'Ann!) Sunnies: H&M   Sandals/BraceletsL: Random Cami: Old Navy


This peacock and I were dressed alike! LOL. How cute!


Thanks for reading!

    Inez honey you looking pretty darn fierce at the zoo! You look great...I love your hair by the way. I always admire short cuts but never built up the courage to rock one.

    You had to be the flyest one at the zoo. I love the entire outfit and especially the sunnies. I am obsessed with sunglasses.
