Own: The Birthday Two Piece.

Guess what, people!?  It's that time of year.  That's right.  MY BIRTHDAY MONTH!

The princess birthday has been pretty mild so far, but now that we're coming in on the actual day (Saturday!), I've been searching far and wide for the perfect birthday outfit.

This year, a dress just wouldn't do.  I've looked year after year at dresses and this year, I needed something more.  So, I've turned to the Two Piece.  I'm not talking about bikinis.  I'm talking about crop tops and high waists!  I'm loving the look right now- that little sliver of midriff showing is just the right amount of skin.  Plus, after all these months of yoga, I'm ready to come out of my shell a little.  My birthday is the best day to do that.  Getting older isn't going to stop me!

When did I first notice the two piece?

I was having dinner with the bf at Nyonya, and a girl walked in with a bunch of people.  She was wearing a black turtleneck, sleeveless crop top and a pencil skirt with a funky print.  A tiny bit of her stomach was showing.  She had her hair straightened.  She looked so cool.  In that moment, I thought to myself,

"I could do that."

So, here we are.

This is the outfit I've picked:


Fun, isn't it??  I am so excited to wear this out. I've seen lace around a lot lately, but I've felt that, in some cases, it has made the garment look old.  This lace over a rainbow fabric is such a fun way to change it up and take me out of my black.  Want to get it for yourself?  You can find it on asos.com and it's by MinkPink.

Happy May Day/My Birthday Month to you all!
