9 to 5

Before Lauren ran off to work today, I made her pose for a outfit picture since she hasn't done one in a while. She originally had another pair of brown boots on that were trendier, but they looked too loose around her legs with the long length of the dress. We decided that her six-year-old Nordstrom boots created a cleaner and more elongated line.

Dress: Forever 21
Tank: American Apparel
Tights (tan fishnets): River Island
Boots: Nordstrom (6 years ago)
Earrings: street vendor in Spain

Below is a close-up of the built-in belt. I think the detailing looks great considering that the dress was only around $20.

Wendy, I love the combination of turquoise and brown!

Thanks Wendyb.

Key, yeah I wouldn't let her leave without getting a photo of her.

Bitterbabe, I don't know what we would do without Forever 21.

Fashion Tidbits, you got it!

Lynn, you'd never think that belt and dress could be so cheap.

Thanks Secretista.

Eleh, you're so sweet. Yep, I think Lauren has a great smile. We're twins, but oddly enough our smiles are very different.
