Raspberry Stripes

Hey guys. Yesterday I went out and did some shopping, for me and my parent's house. They're remodeling and well I've been doing a lot painting and stuff around here. Anyway, I actually just  had to quickly take these photographs right at the bus stop I was at, haha.
(Also excuse my hair, the wind always blows hard.)

I really think this shirt is very "cute" ( I don't normally like the term cute because it makes me think of kittens and baby toes) I love the way it ties in the back allowing you to show some skin without being too cold. 
I also like the color its very raspberry looking. YUM.


The shirt is actually from the UK French Connection at Sears (I went shopping remember? Brace yourself, they had a crazy sale, so expect a lot more of this Sears obsession of mine :D) It was actually only about 7 dollars. Oh yeaaah, and as for the shorts, they're thrifted, and I probably paid like 1 dollar for them!




You like my neon yellow nails? I DO!


My lovely orphan looking boots are from H&M.
 They actually remind me of Anastasia's boots)

You see the resemblance no?

More Bloo



Omar gave me these cute oxfords from Aldo for my birthday! (they are actually huge on me.)

My bff Lilly gave me this bracelet for my birthday too, I really love the chain in it.
Also, I have now made it seem like everything I own was given to me on my birthday.
I swear this just coincidental. 

Why yes, yes I am standing on a scale. I'm not sure why though.


Today is an "ugh" day. I am not sure why. I've been so tired lately womp womp womp. Omar and I went to the movies today, we watched 21 Jump Street. I liked it, a lot. GO WATCH IT! 

Anyway, I have this obsession with the whole "denim on denim" look. I just think it's great, I love blue and stuff so yes I love denim! The button up I am wearing is from the French Connection Collection from Sears (again, I know) and I got it for only 7 bucks! SEARS FTW! 
It's actually pretty big on me seeing it's an XS but I tied it at the bottom and voila! 
The jeans are striped Levi's jeggings, I swear I bought them a few weeks ago, and already they don't fit me anymore. 
In the morning it was a little chilly so I decided to keep the light wash denim theme and I threw on this white jean jacket. It's thrifted Old Navy, for only 3 dollars!!

Embracin' the Asian

About a week ago I decided to get a haircut and while I asked for a trim on my very long bangs I ended up with these. 

I just look Asian.

I'd like to mention I am 19 years old and 5'2. Yes that short, oh well. Now, I decided to start a blog because I am a very "thrify" (ahmm cheap) person but I like to look good. I'd like to share my beliefs and tricks to looking fashionable without spending all the money in the world. I am not saying I am some crazy fashion designing fashionista, I just like what I like and you can take what you like from this.   

With that being said let's move on to yesterdays outfit. I really wanted to wear this great navy blazer I got at H&M for 20$ (originally 50$) and I took advantage of this crazy Chicago weather to wear it. I finally shaved my legs and put some shorts I had purchased last summer at the thrift store for only 3$. This way I wouldn't look businessy. I had recently got some comfy thigh highs from Target for about 3$  and since it was warm but not hot I threw them on (hella uncomftable though.) I used an old racerback tank from Urban Outfitters to give the outfit some color. I wore my Doc Martens because well, I love them and they look good with anything!! (not really) Finally I picked one of my favorite purses, I got it on sale for 20$ at Urban Outfitters (terrible quality btw) I felt  the off white complimented the shirt.
