Movies, Sushi and Pollen Puddles

Last night i went to the drive-in movie theater with my sister and dad and saw Clash of the Titans (very good) and Percy Jackson & the Olympians The Lightning Thief (pretty good). It was fun, you basically sit in a parking lot and look at the movie projected on a screen and listen to the sound through your car radio. We do it all the time and it's really fun.
Today my dad didn't have to work so he took me and my sister out for sushi. Afterwards we went to petsmart and looked at all the animals. Then we ran around in the pouring rain for 15 minutes to get cigars (for my dad) and pound cake and cool whip for dessert for later. It was a really fun day. Here's what i wore:




I wore black converse, faith21 skinny jeans, New York and Company sweater, Energy striped tank, forever21 skull cap.

Here's my favorite song of the moment! I'm obsessed with it! I <3 BoA!



Artist: BoA
Song: Eat You Up

Summer Wishes

I have a lot of things i want to get this summer but here are just a few. Most of these items are from walmart or target, cheap i know, but if i like how it looks and fits i'll buy it, no point in buying the same item at a higher price.





All three of the above items are from Wal-Mart. Both pairs of these jeans are by OP and the same jeans, just different colors. I really like them because of the zippers at the bottom on the sides and they're only $14. There's also this yellow dress that i like. It's only $12 and i'd like to get it, but the problem I've had with dresses from Wal-mart in the past is no matter what size dress you get, the bust is for an AA, A or B cup, even the XLs, so I'll have to see about that. But what i really want is a yellow dress for summer.




These two scarves are from a website called scarfworld.com or something like that, just use google shopping and type 'skull print scarf' and you'll find them. Anyways, i say a picture of a scarf similar to the black scarf and ever since then i've wanted one, and when i saw the white one i wanted it too.







All five of the above items are from Target. I like all the tube dresses, but the pink and yellow are my favorites. The yellow is more of a substitute in case the one from walmart doesn't fit me. I like both these button down shirts, but i'd wear them unbuttoned and layered over tanks, shirts or dresses.

I'm hoping to update with an outift post soon, but i will post soon.

Style Idol: Minzy from 2NE1

2NE1 is one of my favorite groups. They are a girl group out of Korea and i think both their music and style is quite amazing, especially Minzy's, she and CL are my favorite of the four.



Minzy has the coolest style. The base of all her outifts seems to be leggings (and occasionally skinny jeans) and a t-shirt. From there she dresses up the look with jackets, vests, jewelry, shoes, sunglasses, and pretty much anything you can think of. She is somehow able to take a hideous pair of leggings and pull them off. She's not afraid to mix styles and patterns and always seems to be confident on stage, no matter what she's wearing.







Not only does she have great style, but she is an amazing dancer and singer. She is very talented. If you don't know who 2NE1 or Minzy are you should look up some of their videos on youtube.

Trespassing with Bees

Yes, i finally got around to taking photos for an outfit post.






Taking photos for the post was quite dangerous. Me and my sister had to trespass on someone's lawn (as you can see in the picture where i'm standing up confidently) while being chased by bees. I have a fear of bugs bigger than my finger, and having a stinger and being able to fly doesn't help at all! My sister was also be stealthy and taking pictures of me when i didn't know it. It was pretty fun.
I like this look, but i think the boots and the blazer too masculine together, next time i'll pair heels with the blazer for a more feminine touch.
I wore this to school friday and got a lot of good comments, s i decided to do a post about it.
I'm wearing a vintage mens blazer, faith21 skinny jeans, baby pink doc martens, and a mens fruit of the loom v neck tee.

Spring Break!

So I'm finally on spring break! I'm happy that i won't have school for a week, but tired because what will i do for 9 days at home? I have a few clothing projects to work on and i'm going to clean out my closet, but other than that the only plans i have are to have sushi with my sister and father and to go to the dentist (i'm ecstatic- NOT!).
Last night i realized that my wardrobe is quite minuscule. I was going through my closet trying to find something to wear that didn't have a rip on it some wear, and only have a few items. All be shirts are around 2 years old and get worn OFTEN, but my mother is in denial that i need new clothes, claiming that if my sister doesn't need new clothes, then i don't (by the way, my sister wears uniforms five days a week, and sleepers almost the rest of the time, she only gets dressed if she know for sure that she's going somewhere.)
I remember when i made a promise to myself not to buy any more graphic tees, i'm about to break that promise. I should have rephrase the promise to be 'Don't buy any more boring graphic tees, only artistic ones" , because i went to threadless.com last night and found so many cool graphic tees. Here are some pictures of the ones i want to buy:








I've also found some really cute sandals on gojane.com for summer.



I laos found a dress online similar to the one i was looking at (that i showed u guys in the last post). It's from dulcetcourture.com, and its only $35! The problem is i can't find a size guid on the website to see if the dress will actually fit me. Here's a picture of it though:





The thing is that i don't think i'll be going to prom this year. I thought a bunch of my friends were going, but really only a few are, so if i can find a dress i like then i'll get it and save it for next year.

For my last day of school before spring break i wore my pink Doc Martens, a white tee, my new skinny jeans, and my new blazer to school. I got a lot of great comments, but when i got home i was too tired to take photos, so i'm planning on recreating the outfit tonight or tomorrow and taking photos. Since it's spring break i will definitely be posting more, which could also mean more outfit posts, but we'll see.

It's Better in the Guys' Section

So i actually had a pretty good weekend. Friday and Saturday i did homework and played DDR. Sunday i went to Goodwill with my little sister. My sister found this really pretty whie strapless dress for her 8th grade graduation, because the school wants them dressed up. i found a shiny blue dress that had what looked like a triangular piece of chainmail on the front. It may sound wierd, but it looked cool. Afte 20 minutes me and my sister realized that the dress i found was impossible to put on, so he chucked it. but before i left i went to the mens section, to look at the blazers. There were a few awkward glances my way, but i didn't care, because i found a cool new gray blazer that looked cool with my new skinny jeans. i also went to Target and got a 5 pack of mens fruit of the loom v-neck tees, one if which i'm wearing now (they're so comfy).
Monday i had Environmental Club, which was a flop because our sponsor's kid got sick and she left. i'm the only girl in environmental club, with a bunch of guys. having nothing to do until our parents picked us up we got food and just walked around. After a while we hung out in a parking lot and practiced skateboarding tricks. In comparison to everyone else i was bad. I could barely skateboard, and every one else was doing ollies and shove-its, but i had a lot of fun. Things can be so much simpler around guys. They aren't worrying about prom or grades or anything.
I will be doing an outfit post soon, with my new blazer and skinnies. Spring break is next week for me, so i will try to get some outfit posts in then too. I will also look for a dress for prom. If i can find one i like at a good price i might just save it for next year and not go this year. I'm still iffy on whether i want to go or not. i have until April 15th to decide, they stop selling tickets April 16th.
I'm definetely going to watch a lot of disney movies over spring break, i feel like singing! this is for u guys!

Fretting Over Prom

At the beginning of the year my friends and i decided that we probably weren't going to prom this year, but now everyone's going and it seems like it will be fun, and i want to go too, but i have problems;
- It's April 24 - pretty soon in other words
- I don't have a dress
- I don't have shoes
- I don't have $65 for a ticket
- I don't know if my parents will let me go and/or pay for me to go.

I got an idea from Seventeen.com on an outfit idea, but i have to find a dress in my price range (less than $100, preferably less than $60) and the accessories. Here's a picture for a dress i like, but can't afford. I want to get a similar dress and give it the same edgy look with accessories, etc.



I also found some shoes on forever21.com that i like, but i don't know it they'll go with the edgy vibe i want to give off, so i might just opt for basic black heels, or black converse (of course i'd have to get a whole new pair and my mom won't like that, but if i clean up the ones i have, which are pretty new that might do, but i'm not sure what i'll do as of now).
I'm going to see if i can go to Goodwill and/or the mall this weekend and see what i can find. I found a couple of dresses on AMI Clubwear's website that were okay, but not as much like this dress as i wanted.

The shoes i was looking at are silver heels and alone they're pretty, but i don't know if they'll go with what dress i end up getting so i'll have to wait on that.





There are also these two necklaces which i both like, but i'll have to see which one matches better with my dress, when/if i get one.
Wish Me Luck!

The New and The Old

So Friday afternoon i got my order from forever21, who has finally switched from FedEx to UPS (I'm SO HAPPY!) and in it was a new scarf, hat and skinny jeans, i don't have a photo of the scarf in here, but there are photos of everything else. I also found some really cute clothes in my mom's closet from when she was younger. I found a cute pair of flats, which i'm wearing in a picture with my new skinny jeans. I also found a brown leather jacket. I've been looking for the perfect leather jacket, with a hood as an added bonus, but the only one i could find was $100, but i found this one for free. It was my dad's but when he married my mom he gave it to her to hold on to, since he was always traveling, and now it's mine.
There's also some pictures of a vest by Roxy that I got at TJMaxx a few weekends ago that i'm in love with. I will do outfit posts with these items soon, if the weather doesn't stop messing around. It is was sunny and 70 degrees Saturday and this morning it was snowing. I don't understand the weather, at all. There are also pictures of the braclets i wear on a daily basis.
By the way, the skinny jeans i got from forever21 were only $11.50 and they are SOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO comfy, i literally wore them all weekend.









Meine Kleine Schwester ( my little sister)

So my sister has been bugging me to do a post about her, and she doesn't have a bad sense of fashion, so here is basically a portfolio of recent pictures of my sister. When ever she helps me take photos for my outfit posts she has me take some photos of her.
