If I could describe my style in three words, they would be: whimsical, feminine, and confident. Everyone has a unique fashion voice, whether it be loud and unabashed, or shy and understated. I am a firm believer that a good sense of personal style can change your life… seriously. // Rule #1: Don’t try to be anyone else.

Gloomy weather has a tendency to negatively affect my spirits, and today I needed to be in a happy sort of mood.</p> <p>Thank goodness, happy colored clothes came to the rescue! Hip, Hip, HOORAYYYYY!</p> <p>Seriously, what could be happier than a tulle tutu combined with polka dotted comfort, yellow tights, and a peachy keen hair bow?!</p> <p>Not much!!! :) <br/><br/><em>Green tea in my mug, a pep in my step, and ready for work - Yesssssss. :)</em><br/><br/>Hugs,<br/><br/>Jenny</p> <p><img src="http://media.tumblr.com/tumblr_lv2y82s5ys1r2bdi4.jpg"/></p> <p><img src="http://media.tumblr.com/tumblr_lv2yj6H9m11r2bdi4.jpg"/></p>http://thejennyjournal.tumblr.com/post/13170484786http://thejennyjournal.tumblr.com/post/13170484786Tue, 22 Nov 2011 13:10:47 -0800<img src="http://24.media.tumblr.com/tumblr_lv13g3oD3w1r69pj7o1_500.jpg"/><br/><br/><p>Monday Funday :)</p>http://thejennyjournal.tumblr.com/post/13123230277http://thejennyjournal.tumblr.com/post/13123230277Mon, 21 Nov 2011 12:55:15 -0800<p><img src="http://media.tumblr.com/tumblr_luy6cr06fZ1r2bdi4.jpg"/></p> <p><img src="http://media.tumblr.com/tumblr_luy6s3gHn01r2bdi4.jpg"/></p>http://thejennyjournal.tumblr.com/post/13051992960http://thejennyjournal.tumblr.com/post/13051992960Sat, 19 Nov 2011 23:14:38 -0800<img src="http://24.media.tumblr.com/tumblr_luvm8mTDbN1r69pj7o1_500.jpg"/><br/><br/><p>Blazer + Maxi</p> <p>Lovely Friday</p>http://thejennyjournal.tumblr.com/post/12981193041http://thejennyjournal.tumblr.com/post/12981193041Fri, 18 Nov 2011 13:55:34 -0800<img src="http://25.media.tumblr.com/tumblr_luucs7mwcj1r69pj7o1_500.jpg"/><br/><br/><p>It was definitely one of <em>those mornings </em>today.</p> <p>Overslept, hair a mess, and most of my clothes were overflowing from the laundry bin.</p> <p>My tired eyes raced to the clock and quickly deduced that I had about fifteen minutes to make some magic happen.</p> <p>Yikes!</p> <p>Dry shampoo* + a cloth necklace-turned-headband were my lifelines.</p> <p>I love wearing ponytails in between washes because it keeps excess oil and impurities from clogging the pores on my face. (If you haven’t already heard by now, let me be the one to tell you, you should <span><strong>not</strong></span> be washing your hair everyday!)</p> <p>As for my dress, I chose an easy fitting frock with pretty back detailing. Well designed cutouts can turn even the simplest dress into a statement piece. When I’m pressed for time and don’t have a lot of time to be creative, I opt for a one-piece-wonder rather than trying to throw together a bunch of layers.</p> <p>Ta-da!</p> <p>Ready to go with two minutes to spare.
