Sister Shopping & OOTD's

Yesterday my sister, Jacy, and I took advantage of the beautiful weather and went on a little shopping trip!  It was a good break from school, work and general daily stresses.  

We started off the day with a little espresso... 

White coffee, white mocha with banana. YUM!

...headed to the mall where we found a few bargains, and finished up with a quick lunch at Olive Garden. Soup, salad and bread sticks--can't pass that up!

Jacy and I are twins and often have the same taste, however we style ourselves pretty differently.  Here are our takes on a casual shopping day look.  After lunch we stopped by this small community park to snap a few pics.  It was a little later in the day so the sun was pretty low and bright! Excuse the squinting (:

Can you see a theme with our obsession with Forever 21?  We're both college students so we are all about affordable, cute fashion.  

My goal for this day was to have something easy to work with for trying things on which is why I chose a dress with an attached slip and slip-on flats.  You can't tell from the picture but they're plain black and pointed toe. 

I went light on accessories.  For my makeup I did a simple two-tone eye and chose a lip color that popped which is Maybelline from the vivid's collection in 900 Hot Plum.   

What's your go-to look for a day out?

Would you dare to wear a bold lip?

Thanks for reading! Hope you enjoy your day (:
