The Mindy Top From Dahlia Wolf

I have been feeling pretty lucky this week considering the fact that I have had a 5 day weekend!! I originally had only 3 days off, but I had no mid terms to take on Tuesday so I got to stay home for an extra day. I should be at school right now, but school is cancelled for me due to the snow we got yesterday! Thank gosh because I need another day to study for my psychology midterm! I have literally spent 3 hours memorizing parts of the brain and their functions! We actually got a decent amount of snow overnight.. not as much as I anticipated based on the weather reports.. but more than the "normal" amount. I think the shocking factor of this storm are the temperatures. It's currently 12 degrees Fahrenheit right now (-11 Celsius), but feels like -7 Fahrenheit (-22 Celsius) with the wind! Needless to say, I will not be going outside unless I need to!
Today's outfit post is going to be featuring Dahlia Wolf! I mentioned this site a lot in the two posts (Here and Here) leading up to my winter break. I actually got this top in the mail right before going on vacation so therefore, these pictures were taken before Christmas hehe. I meant to write this post earlier, but I just didn't have enough room since I wanted to do my chirstmas haul, vacation recap.. etc. hehe.

The crop top was a collaboration between Dahlia Wolf and I. Basically the site is like a huge pinterest like site dedicated to fashion. You upload pictures that you like as inspiration and if your inspiration piece catches the eye of Dahlia Wolf, then you get your piece made and a free sample of you clothing piece! The top that was created for me was a festive colored crop top. The colors remind me a lot of summer or being on vacation on a tropical beach! Thinking about it now, showing this outfit is a bit ironic seeing how it is winter wonderland and freezing outside right now. hehe. It's okay though because I am inside in the heat!

To style this outfit, I really wanted to pair it with some high waisted shorts, but I could not find mine so I had to improvise. Instead of my shorts, I chose to wear a dark blue colored high low skirt! I wore the skirt a bit higher to work with the crop top. I personally felt that the color of this skirt worked very well with the top. Both pieces gave off a really tropical feel. Seeing how cold it is right now, I could really use some warmer weather!!

Along with the crop top and skirt, I chose to wear a set of bangles and a butterfly ring from Sammydress. I felt that this outfit was better with minimum accessories. After looking back on these pictures, I must say that I love my hair color with this outfit. I always am on the lookout for new colors to dye my hair with. My hair recently has been a lot healthier and I'm thinking of switching my hair color back to a deep red? What do you guys think? I love the ombre ffect I have right now, but my roots are growing out (and I have white hair) so it's not that attractive!

I really love the effect that a filter had on this picture!

Overall, I really love "The Mindy Top" from Dahlia Wolf. It's made with great quality material and the colors of it are lovely! I love it even more due to the fact that it's lined/padded so I don't need to worry about what to wear underneath it. The fit of it is perfect as well because at first I didn't notice the zipper on the side and wondered how am I going to get in this thing? hehe.. the zipper saved me because it actually zips down all the way down so it's much easier to get on! I am 100% satisfied with my top!
