Quick update

I know that it's been forever since the last post, but things have started to get crazy. Between now and then, it's been about the same routine. Wake up, school, eat, work, homework, sleep. Between now and then I've got some shopping done too. I'm hoping that eventually the lust for clothes and shoes will wear off, but it seems like  working at a clothing store is making this problem even more prominent. Speaking of prominent, prom is coming up soon! It's barley a little over a week away and I'm starting to get really nervous. I've already got my dress and shoes and I'm too poor to get my makeup and hair done, so I'm just going to have to attempt those myself. But last years prom wasn't that great considering that everyone got into fights with their boyfriend/girlfriend. Bluh. Not good memories. Anyways, this year will be better I'm determined. Boyfriend and I are still together and actually celebrated our year and a half just a couple of years ago. He's had his own place for a couple of months, but between school, his car insurance, gas and bills, he was running out of money quick. His dad needed his house back anyways to pay off the old debt on it, so they're going to move his stuff in this weekend and all going to live in the house together. My sister is getting married too! We've already gotten her dress and figured out the location and got the bridesmaid dresses and groomsmen outfits, so we're moving along pretty decently. School will be out in just a few weeks too. I'm developing a serious case of senior-itis. I just want to be out for summer vacation. It's weird to think that I'm going to be in college in just a few months :s. 

Day 19

Your Favorite Look From Beauty Guru Day-

I absolutely love this yellow dress! Actually, I love everything about this outfit. I must do research so I can find similar things...

Day 18

Your Favorite Beauty Guru Day- I was really bored one day and was trying to get some new fashion ideas.So, I  decided to check out some of the other fashion blogs on blogger. One of my favorites is called The Sartorialist. It's basically just street style outfits from all around the world. It's a great way to look at outfits from a new point of view..

Just in these few pictures, there's inspiration for big, chunky, winter outfits, wedding, summer, ways to paint, color coordination.... there's so much. I love it.

A few new buys..

I haven't had very much spending money lately, but I have made a few new purchases. Most are from my work (of course). And I assure you that I'm not overflowing with money lol, everything was on clearance basically.

 My camera isn't really the best, but it does it's job lol. The top shoes are a caramel suede bootie by Unionbay in size 8. I got them for the price, but I also had been eyeing them for a few day, and each time that I saw them, the more they rubbed off on me. It has a high heel- around 4- 4 1/2 inches, but I can't even tell because the heel is so thick, it helps spread out the weight on the whole foot instead of a little stiletto heel. I'm quite satisfied with them. The white dress is by Love Fire in size small and it actually has an intricate lace pattern all over it. In the back is an exposed gunmetal-gray zipper that goes down about half the back. It hugs the body, but in a really flattering way. It's not too short either which helps make it not... as exposing. The blue heels are by Steve Madden and I'm absolutely in love with them. they're another chunky heel and made out of suede too, but they're so comfy and have a really urban and chic look to them. I adore them. The nude heels are just a pair of Mossimos from Target. I didn't own a single pair of nude heels before this purchase, and I decided that I should get some sooner than later. They go with absolutely everything, and maybe my new favorite pair of shoes. So comfy too..  And last, the sequin dress is by Kantagious in a size small. It has an intricate sequin design all over it too in a blush tone. It's short too, but it's so cute! It's short, but because of the cut of it, it doesn't look slutty basically lol. I'm quite happy with these purchases.

Quick Update

I know it's been forever since I've posted, but I've been so busy lately. It seems like there's always something or other going on. We didn't have school on Friday because it was a teacher development day which means all the students got to stay home while the teachers went to school. So my Friday consisted of spending most of the day at Boyfriend's, going to Evansville with a couple of my friends, my Grandparent's 61st wedding anniversary, and eating out after that. It was a long day, but still one of the best ones that I've had for awhile. Today, I went back over to Boyfriend's to help his Dad move some of his stuff out, but his Dad wasn't even there by the time I got there. His Dad is getting back with his ex and moving in with her and Boyfriend and 4 other guys are going to take the house, pay his Dad rent for it, and turn it into a bachelor pad basically. Well... a very cheap bachelor pad lol we're all very poor at the moment. Anyways, 2 of the guys moving in... I don't really get along with them very well, and I've known them both forever, but I'm going to have to try to get along with them if I want to even see Boyfriend. So that's been the excitement and stress for about the past 2 weeks straight- that and lack of money. But, enough of stress and negative talk. I've been great overall and I'm still working at T.J. Maxx (thank God), and I still love it there. Just wish I could get some more hours like I had during the Holiday Season...

Day 17

Fashion Pieces That are on Your To-Buy List Day- As always, this list is going to be verrrry long and verrrry extensive. I'm totally low on money because I'm trying to save most of it up for college. Psssh, ya. Like I'm actually going to save money.. Anyways, it's so hard to work at a clothing store and be exposed to clothes, shoes, purses, and all this other random goodness, and not buy any of it. So, I'm trying really hard not to spend my next paycheck on clothes. I don't work again until Thursday, so my paycheck for this week is going to be around $50. Enough for gas =/ But after school today, I'm going to do a little bit of shopping and hopefully find some clothes that I can wear for work. We can't wear blue jeans, but I need a few more pairs for school because I cant wear any of the ones I own except for like 2. And for work, I have the green cargo pants and a pair of black jeans, but the black jeans are too big. So, I've just been settling for wearing a lot of tights and a lot of dresses and such. I miss my jeans =/ And I just feel like spending money. So, I'm planning on scouting out the clearance areas and hopefully being able to find some great deals. I just won't know until I get there I suppose. Although, I do have some things in mind of what I want...
- pair of black jeans
- fur purse
- leather jacket
- bomber jacket
- cheetah print flats
- black ankle boots
- plain sneakers
- maxi dress
- jean jacket
- leather gloves
- neon mini
- red dress
- nude heels
- dark/light brown leather strappy heels
- lace top
- black long blazer

Day 16

Music you Like Day- It was a typical Monday morning today. I woke up to get ready at like 5:00 this morning trying to be a responsible person, but after about 30 seconds, I said screw it and went back to sleep. The result? Woke up at around 7:30, meaning that I would have to get ready in 5 minutes in order to get to school on time. So, I kept on my yoga pants and tank top, pulled on a hoodie, straightened hair some, and applied eye liner and mascara on in the car (don't do that by the way). I sped out of the driveway, reached down on the floor to grab a random CD and ended up grabbing the soundtrack to the first Matrix. I popped it into the CD player and was met by Marilyn Manson. The next few tracks were like.. techno club mixes and stuff. It was awesome. I got to school feeling epic and bad-ass. And then I got to second period and I'm back to feeling bleh. Stupid Mondays...
