I'm Late for a Very Important Date!

Long time,no see! I have so much to talk about, so let's get started.
I have been reading a great book. Not a magazine, a book, a hard covered book that has to do with fashion and let me tell you it is honestly the best book I have ever read. It also written by the one the only Nina Garcia!

What I like about this book is that she gives you a guide to finding your individual style and not a manual to be the the most trendiness girl on the block. She explains that clothes don't make you, you make you. She also goes on to explain that confidence is the prettiest thing that a girl can wear. If you have a chance to read this book, do read it. I got hooked and I might read it again.


I finally got to see Alice in Wonderland in 3D at the movie theater. It was very creepy but not so creepy you had to leave the movie theater. I loved it. After seeing it I kept drawing outfits for my school's performance of Alice and Wonderland. Ooh, I forgot to tell you guys that I am small Alice!! I am so excited. I mean it would be super duper cool if I cold wear the queen of hearts outfit that she gives Alice or ride in Johnny Depp's hat but, it should be pretty fun without that stuff. Okay, I would like to wear a outfit like Alice does in that movie because some of them are pretty creative.

Next, if you have the time you might want to stop at Pacsun. They are having a great sale on their jeans and t-shirts. I recently purchased two pairs of jeans for only $15.00. Plus, if you buy 3 graphic tees or tanks you get another one free!

Why Yes, I Did






I know exactly what you are thinking- "Is that a spray paint heart on snow"?
Why yes, yes it is and my dad doesn't know about it yet, so it can be our secret. (Dad if your looking at this the spray paint has probably dyed the snow or it has been tracked all around the house but remember, it's just red spray paint.)

But, let's not get off topic.

Okay, I found these perfect pair of Converse High tops at my local Thrift Store. They cost $6.00. Amazing, I know this sounds kinda nasty because they have been worn before. I cleaned mine and I wear really, really, really, thick socks with them. I love them because they will go with everything and they look cute with almost any style of jeans. Everytime I walk into a Thrift Store, I head straight to the shoes, because once I found a pair of Michael Kors tennis shoes and yes, they were real Michael Kors and super cute... but a size 8. If you know me, I am barely a size five. So, that's why I go to the shoes first. When I saw the high tops, they made my heart sing. It was love at first sight!

Lazy Sunday

Happy Valentine's Day everybody! Today was my kind of day, a chococolate breakfest, spending time with my family, and watching my dog go crazy over this flying chicken we got her for Valentine's day. I have fallen in love with Forever 21's Love collection. It's fun, romanatic, and chic at the same time. My favorite piece is the Boys Love Me tank, it's very cute and funny. This is where I got the idea for this outfit. Red and white are my favorite colors for Valentine's Day. I am wearing a Gap Kids skirt, vintage heels from mom's closet, a Chanel bag from mom's closet, a Tee from Marshells, and a vintage necklace from the thrift store. Oh, and I forgot the rose from Quiktrip!


Thanks Sutton for taking the photos, you are one awesome brother!

Stop and Smell The Roses...

On Wednesday and Thursday, my mom and I created organza flowers. Yes, they are for Valentine's day gifts ~ but we will be selling the bracelets and the brooches on Etsy very soon! My friends love neon colors! So, I decided to create flowers with their style in mind.

These are my moms flowers that she made for her friends on Valentine's Day.



I call these 80's flowers !
Happy Valentine's Day!

Obsession

I am really in love with Betsey Johnson.This Christmas, my parents bought me a Betsey Johnson necklace, I LOVE IT TO PIECES! The bright, vibrant colors make me smile every time I look at one of her collections. She also, has a cool vintage flair. I am soooo happy that I live by a Betsey Johnson store! I tell my parents almost everyday that I am going to wear a Betsey Johnson dress to prom-- no matter what! Well,they think that my date for the prom is going to think that I look like a rainbow that spit up... but who cares~she is my favorite dress designer other than Vera Wang but, I will save that story for later.



This necklace is so unique from all the other necklaces out there, because of the bebbled glass on top and the bows on the sides of the heart. Screaming fabulous details!



These are three of my favorite outfits she has made. They are a little crazy and weird but I like it! My favorite outfit is the one to the right. I just love those purple colored tights with the crazy skirt.



I love the tye-dyed hair pieces and her underwear is so funny. You can buy one pair with a "B" on it and another one with an "E", so on and so on until you spell B-E-T-S-E-Y!
