what ya wearin christmas and new year's eve

Well, this is very bittersweet. As I said before, this marks the end of one of my favorite traditions I've ever had on my blog.... but before I get all sappy, let's look at the greatness that was tagged from the recent holidays.

@melmoraes was perfect with a gold, one-sleeved dress.... and a champagne chug. I'm obsessed. 

@BlaineStewart rockin' the puffer vest and way too cool for a mirror!

@fangirlrenee got some faaaancy fun shoes!

How hott does @Alexonthemic look with that cut-out?!

@Siarrahhh was pretty in floral with her skirt and the lace!

Loving @justchilin_24's festive tie and argyle!

Also rockin the argyle is @JenDBradley!

@lindseyvolt's sweater and subtle sparkle underneath is really great

@riskybusinesslm went with the sweater vest!

@lexibunny looks gorgeous in a simple little black dress

You know I love the skater skirts and crop tops [as you'll see soon].. and @tannerlinwood did it perfectly!

@shay_kayyy27 with the open back sweater and wine-colored pants!

How perfect is @caseyreneed's dress for NYE?! The sparkles, the gold, the slinky material!

I can't decide if I like @jonelmarie's onesie or the atmosphere she's in better.

@gfcoyle got all sortsa festive for his broadcast

I'm a HUGE fan of the colors going on and everything about this look on @nickeys_paparazzi

More gold and sparkle perfection on @ayoder9052!

@shelbybrooooke and @brooookemarie both sparkled beautifully!

And I loved the studs on @jennay_z's dress!

@misterignacio is so dapper in the black and white! AND I'm loving the other guy's red pants/white bow tie.

YAY for more sparkles on @modelbrittanyj!

How awesome are @muchachamary's pants?! They're perfect.

And check out @djgoofywhitekid with the black on black skinny tie!

For me... I wore a pretty basic outfit on Christmas... it was this shirt with my red pants. But then I added on this headband while incredibly ADD and opening presents. 

But my New Year's outfit... after a ton of deliberation and sending pics to my friends for approval, I'm pretty obsessed with it. 

I got really lucky.. 

-crop top from Body Central $5 [it had a criss-cross back]

-leather skirt from H&M $7

-old tights and shoes, totaling about $20

-this necklace that I wasn't planing on wearing, but you can never have too much sparkle on NYE! It's from Charlotte Russe for $5! 

I went out shopping THE DAY OF... I don't know how that all worked out for me so well for once, but I will never complain.

*Sigh.* And there it is. 

For the record... I BEYOND appreciate everyone who made WYWW what it was for over a year. I absolutely loved and still love seeing what you wear! At this point, I feel like I'm always begging for pictures and that's annoying, so I'm going to give it a makeover of sorts. Somehow I still want to feature YOU and YOUR OUTFITS, but it's going to be in a different way. I have some ideas, but I'm open for suggestions! I'll be hitting up some of the regular submitters to bring it back! 

Thank you.. again. 

love,

watch: robin williams has a tickle fight with a gorilla

My obsession with monkeys is a little extreme, but how can you NOT think they're awesome?! Especially after watching this video...

Robin Williams meets KoKo, and after taking his glasses, all KoKo wants is a good ol' fashioned tickle fight.



She took his glasses and wore them! KoKo totally fell in love with Robin. And all the signing... gah, I'm just obsessed. I don't know how I missed this video when it was originally posted!

And don't get all "they can snap and become scary instantly" on me, cuz I don't wanna hear it. All gorillas and monkeys are awesome and nice and caring and yeah. All things great.

love,
elizabetha

PS: My always has to be perfectly correct on everything BFF corrected me, "gorillas are not monkeys, they're apes." I feel the same about apes and monkeys. I don't discriminate, nor do I care a whole lot about what I wrote being "wrong." To me- monkeys are all the different types of animals that are just like humans, but.. well.. aren't.

what ya wearin wednesday 022013

Ohhh, I know I say this a lot, but this was a good week! Let's just get right to it!

These girls [via @kaestlecastle] had this posted under a different hashtag weeks ago. They all look amazing! But it reminds me to remind you, the official hashtag is #WhatYaWearinWednesday!

@xSimplyReikox showed off her new red and blue nail polish that will be especially awesome come July!

@dsheppard08 looks great in purple and khaki!

LOOK at @gfcoyle's fancy Power Ranger skis! He painted them himself!

@RomulaLynn switched up her nails again! They're very "Saved By The Bell" to me!

@Madi_1Derful rocked the plaid and skinny jeans!

@toribabyy14 celebrated Love Your Pet Day and dressed casual cute! Love that phone case!

Musta been a good day for skiing! @eewerner was on the slopes, too!

I just wanna tell @JaceBarrow to shut up and get out with this picture! The outfit is light and fun, the hearts and him are just adorbs!

I want @delodoll's eyes, shoes, earrings, nails... all of it is so pretty!

Trudee on Facebook and her friend were "Beauty and a Beat!" So perfect!

I've been crushing on leopard print cardigans and things like them! Now @pegahrashti is rubbing one in my face!

@dawnmillerhomes matcher her shirt with her awesome hot pink cast!

@dubwalston added some glasses today and blue that makes him sexy!

@barelyaware has fantastic leopard flats!

I can't believe @ayoder9052 is the first to sport the military suit on here! It's about time!

I'm beyond obsessed with @kimberlicious0's jean vest, lace dress, and boots combo. 

Also obsessed with @katiecakes26's blazer from LC Lauren Conrad! I need to suck it up and spend the $30 on it because it looks FAB!

@siarrahhh kept it cazsh [how the eff do you spell the abbreviation of casual?!] in jeans and Toms!

@KaciKruz mixed patterns and textures with corduroy pants!

@ainsleeboswell was fancy-dancy for a wedding event! Love that hair!

@thecullenbunch1 sported her Twilight fandom!

And some TWINNING action!

@amsnedegar went tan and black with her blazer/sequin action

While @ksnedegar woo'd me with her red, black and white.

Not gonna lie, I'm shocked to find out @BrookeonHOT got her scarf at Kroger! It's pretty!

@xxKaleigh1Dxx had a blah day, and I don't blame her!

Look how pretty and fun @jannashepherd's slippers are!

and @barbieshock's Chanel nails are cray! But fun!

As for me, I wanted something easy, but fun. I put on a solid 5 outfits, then saw my mint racerback and it was all over from there.

-tank from F21 $4

-pink blazer from H&M $15

-necklace from ???

-old grey jeans from F21

-patterned flats from Target $8

-earrings from bluelans.com $1

I wish I was better at taking pictures of my makeup. I did a bright fushia liner on the top and a darker magenta on the bottom, with different greys for the shadow.

HIGH FIVE for another great week, friends! LOVE the all the variation!

love,
elizabethany
