MY BANGS GREW! 

Yessss. Well enough for me to wear them to the side. It's a lot more comfortable and "me." 

And now I look 19 (maybe?) instead of like 5 with the straight bangs. 

Fuchsia lipstick, I LIKE IT.

Maybelline.

160, Fifth Ave. Fuchsia.

I'm rather excited to wear the hell out of these.

My shirt is from the UK French Connection (you already know) and I really do love it. 

Super light and sleek (does that make sense?) and it has these lovely golden sparkly stripes throughout the shirt. Since Sears is awesome and was having some crazy sale I paid 4 bucks for it, so yes I feel pretty damn proud about that.

My booties are Steve Madden, I purchased them at DSW (basically my bff) and I've had my eye on them for a while. I was debating between these and the Jeffrey Campbell Litas. I had seen them a while ago at DSW and I ended up not buying them, afterwards I deeply regretted that. I looked for them everywhere else, at least online, and they were priced at bout 160 EVERYWHERE. 

Yesterday though, I had this crazy idea that DSW might still have them so I went over at about 2 hours before closing time and I FOUND THEM. 

THE LAST PAIR, OVERALL.

and here comes the best part..

They were only 35 dollars ;]

So obviously I scooped them up and took my happy ass back home. 

Btw guys, this is the little lady who takes my photographs <3
Kassandy. My seester.
And yes she's 10.

Technicolor

More work. More joggers and T's. 

Today though, I even straightened mah herr. Later on through the day I realized it was completely pointless because it was so damn windy. I do live in Chicago so why am I complaining you ask? I don't know.

Let's move on though, I really like this shirt. It is probably one of my favorite shirts in the whole wide world! Okay, maybe not but I really like it. I think all the colors and the sleeves are pretty and it's super comfy. It's just over all greatness. It's from Sears :D 

So like I clearly stated before it was freaking windy and I simply did not manage to get a picture where my face wasn't being attacked by my hair. 

 I got this belt at the thrift store for a dollar am I cool yet?

I borrowed this, it's Susy's (seester) purse from Spring.

The shorts are from the thrift store and I only paid *drum roll please..druuuummm druuummm (is that what a drum roll sounds like?) ONE DOLLAR! (I'm definitely cool now.)

Funny thing about these, they were actually  really long shorts. They went down to my knees and let's face it that just wouldn't be a flattering look, at least for me, so I decided to alter them. 

I'm not a big fancy sewer nor do I own a sewing machine so this was obviously a super easy project. 

I literally just cut off the legs, I left them a little longer than I actually wanted. I left enough room to roll up the ends, and after that I just did some quick stitching and VOILA! 

(Just make sure both ends are even or you'll just look a fool, unless that's the look you're going for then by all means proceed and good luck.)

I honestly hate paying large amounts for "vintage" clothes when you can find great stuff at great prices and any thrift store. I know high waisted shorts are currently in style and many places sell them for more than the low waisted shorts and it irks me when they're just simple jean shorts.  

Sunday Bun

I don't generally do my hair and when I do believe me when I tell you it is effortless. So that is my lame bun. 

This bow I got for 1 dollar! Street Vendors by my school rock!

I have a dog and I like him. Egore <3

So this shirt I got for 7$ YES! It's from the UK Style French Connection at Sears. It was originally priced for like 30 bucks or something. Now I know Sears seems a little "ugh" and "older suburban white mother of three" than "urban fashionable teenager" but you'd be surprised my friends! You just gotta dig! Now check this, the obviously fake leather leggings I'm wearing here are also from Sears. The Kardashian Collection (Kollection?) I got them for about 16 bucks and that's a tad bit overpriced for me but I could not find cheaper ones that looked good, regardless I was satisfied with these. The booties I'm wearing are wedges and super uncomfortable but if they look good they look good right? WRONG. I'm just kidding. I actually got them for 20$ at UO they're some form of suede and look pretty cool. I'm not big on accesories I'm not sure why so I usually keep it simple. These earrings were about 5$? at Payless! YEAH BUDDY!
