Green Clothes

Aw yeah the wEeKEnD!!

This outfit is pretty weird for me. Mostly cause of the pants, but also because I rarely wear green or rock the tomboy look. I bought the pants at Gap the other day for much more than I normally spend on things, but I really like them! They're corduroys and they're pretty and great for fall. 

Also Urban Outfitters is having a big ol' sale right now, and like, everything I liked the last time I was in there was an additional 50% off. I got shoes and shoes and this mean bracelet:

Shirt: Travis's

Pants: Gap

Shoes, Bracelet: UO

Belt: Thrifted

Necklace: Modcloth

Also here is my cute sister!

What are you guys going to be for Halloween? I'm going to be Blossom from the PowerPuff Girls.

Happy Thursday

The weather is nice.

I'm glad the weekend is coming up, and whaddya know, it also happens to be my Fall Break! Unfortunately it doesn't coincide with my sister's or boyfriend's, and my parents will be working, so I'll be on my own. But that definitely has it's perks too.

Dress, Shirt, Belt, Cardigan, Camera Bag: Thrifted

Shoes: Target

Socks: Old Navy

Lately I feel like I've watched everything Netflix has to offer... that would interest me anyway. I've watched Ugly Betty, Scrubs, Gossip Girl, Orange is the New Black, and Bob's Burgers, and I'm watching New Girl, The Mindy Project, Parks and Rec, and Top Model on Hulu. I've been wanting some good animes to watch, but if you have any recommendations for me I'd love to hear them!

DIY Halloween Nails

Hey guys! In an effort to make this blog a little more interesting for you guys, and because it's October, I made a cutesy little manicure DIY. Of skulls. You'll need white, black, and red polish for this, and I used a combination of toothpicks and a paintbrush.

So here's the basics:

Start with a circle.

Add little notches at the bottom for the skull's teeth.

Add 4 black circles for the eyes and nose.

If you want to add a heart, start with a diagonal stroke like this.

Add another to make a V.

Use black to add lines for the arrow.

Finally, add the ends of the arrow!

Pretty cute, imo. If you try it, I'd love to see your links!

Thug in a Pinafore

My sister told me this beanie made me look like a thug.

Today I have kindof a combo my-outfit/nature-photography post for you, from Sunday when I spent the day with my two favorite people at the State Capitol Park. Luckily, its not operated by the federal government, so we could still hang out there and eat our pizza. There was also like a biker gang appreciation thing going on and all these motorcyclists were on the steps of the building singing the national anthem.

I've got a bunch of fun faces in this photoset! My sister took all the pictures of me (and continues to prove her skill at things that she doesn't care about doing).

 

Pinafore, Shoes, Belt, Hat: Thrifted

Shirt: Gift from Emma via Charlotte Russe

Socks: Old Navy

My new hair makes everything looks so much brighter! It makes me want to wear neutrals and monochrome.

And here's my best thug face. Where'd my eyebrows even go?

This Week I...

ate a cupcake.

took pictures of Emma and Trav at Target.

hung out in a park.

How about you guys!

Blogger Friends!

Omg Happy Friday, guys!

I am so glad this week is over. I hate thinking that way, because I consider myself to be pretty painfully aware that we as humans only get one life, and it's annoying to think I'm impatient for any part of it to pass. But I had a lot to deal with! The worst of which was a critique on my senior thesis from an old teacher of mine. She's a really amazing, inspirational woman, but she does not hesitate to tell it like it is. And she saw one of my sample dresses and was like "No." I think the word "disgusting" was used, and though she gave me a lot of helpful advice, it wasn't a nice meeting. Don't throw me a pity party or anything, though! I know that's just one opinion, and I'm going to keep going with my clothing collection! (I am really proud of myself for not crying tho.)

Anyway, I had a ton of fun yesterday hanging out with my fellow fashion blogger on campus, Sarah!

I was so excited to meet with Sarah! We had a lot of fun talking about fashion and blogging and art-kid stuff!  I took these photos for her, and though I'm no photographer (her boyfriend takes her photos for her a lot, and he actually does fashion photography), we got some good shots, I think! She wears a lot of thrift store stuff, has super cute style, and is like, the nicest person. Why aren't you following her yet? Go do that!
