It's been awhile since I've posted, but it's good to be back. My blog will probably go through a lot of tweaks and changes over the next couple of months. There will be a different theme and content, which brings me to this spur of the moment post. After moving out a year ago, I haven't had much contact with my family. I probably talk to them every few weeks or so, but my lovely sister sent me a nerd care package, which made my entire week.
Being a computer science major and a programmer my sister bought me a book on the first computer program ever written by a woman who was way ahead of her time. The book is called Ada's Algorithm.
My sister also knows I'm a huge fan of puzzles and she knows I like to distract myself with them. So, she bought me the cutest book of word searches.
Lastly, because of my affinity for Einstein she purchased me a pair of socks with his face on them (which I had no idea were even in existence), from Modcloth, if any of you out there are interested in buying a pair for yourself.
That's all I got.

My favorite decade of fashion is definitely the 1940's. I love the silhouette. I also believe that this dedicate in particular is very indicative of strong women. WWII definitely shaped the way women dressed. There were shortages on a lot of textiles and rubber, which forced women to be creative and also raised the hemline for most skirts and dresses.
Between the hats and gloves, the A-line skirts and the shoulder pads, you can't help but love it. Not to mention the militaristic inspiration of it all.
Looking for an Update?
Love this look, but looking to update it? I found pieces mostly from Modcloth that are very 1940s with a little twist giving you a modern look.
I love this dress from
Mod Cloth because it is so reminiscent of this time period with the severe shoulders.
This coat also from
Mod Cloth I love because it's long and has the militaristic inspiration to it like a lot from that era.
I am irrevocably in love with this dress (also from
Mod Cloth, surprise!). The white satin is so 1940's and it has a simply beautiful silhouette, which is incredibly figure-flattering.

Tweed is a great for this season and I've been seeing it everywhere. It's incredibly preppy and cute. It can also be very work appropriate.

Something that is very prominent this fall and that I happen to love are loafers. They're very popular and because of it they come in different patterns, colors and textures to help fit anyone's personal style. Loafers are an excellent substitution for ballet flats that make an outfit even more chic. It's a great way to spice up your wardrobe. Here are my favorite loafers of the season:
