Transition to Fashion

     Last summer I spent 4 weeks camping, missioning, and hiking; this summer so far has proved, well, less eventful. Sooo I need a little something to occupy my time (when I'm not "cleaning my room, checking out dorm dodats, working, etc.). I thought about writing a poem or an essay once a day but the idea made me...hungry. I don't need to be hungry. Anyway. I was checking out other blogs and a considerable amount were fashion. I like fashion. I like writing. Ah! Fashion blog=genius.
     Yes, I will still write poems and little "insightful wonderings," but honestly, sticking up a picture and writing 3 sentences takes less time than writing a poem (especially when you can't finish it until 2 in the mornin').

     Here it goes!

Thrift Findings: #1


Some of you may be thinking, Hmmm where have I seen this before? Well, there it was, hangin' on a rack at ze thrift. Turns out it's from Target. Personally, I don't love Target just because the quality sucks (at least that Mossimo brand does (besides how do you SAY that name?)) . Although, I saw it at ze thrift and it was 7 bucks (more than I would normally spend but the tag still remained intact). Sooo I checked the tag. XL. Alrighty, I may not be a S or even a M sometimes but goodness, this dress fits me perfectly and it's an XL. I can't imagine what a S would had been for this dress. Then again, maybe it was originally a shirt. Anywho. So I bought my little shirt/dress thingy and I wrapped my "gladiator" belt (graciously given to me from my Jordan friend Ruwada) around it and paired it with my "gladiator sandals with no shiny, gaudy madeleines (had to spellcheck that word)." I slid on my very real, very prescriped glasses. (I'm not a hipster and I'm not a poser. I just liked the glasses, oh tay?) Lastly, I pushed in my light as a feather feathered earrings from Miss Emily and put on my bronze bracelet that I found on a dock years ago. 

Please comment and please share your ideas on what you would had done with the dress or rather you even liked it. 

Hasta luego chicas!

  1. I think it is cute! I wish I could put together outfits like that. And I wish I could wear feather earrings, but I think I'm too old.
