Fresh blood

Shirt-Thrifted

Here's the mini guitar my boy let me borrow. I named her Sheila, anddddd I'll probably end up stealing her.
:)
I learned how to play You Got A Friend in Me on it, because the boy wanted me to, I'll be recording it sometime soon, haha.
So, I went car browsing the other day, and my limit is about $3500 as of right now. I'm okay with it though, I mean, the cars weren't beautiful, but I kinda like the idea of having an ugly car... 
Also, I may be tested for my license tomorrow :D
Soooo stokedd!

I went to the mall today and got two pairs of shoes:
But gahhh, shoes are so expensive! These were $40 a pair! But in my opinion, shoes are an investment, and from now on, I'll save up to buy a pair.
Seriously though, I'm not all that fond of the mall. Used to loveeeee it. Forever21 was my store. I basically lived in there. I just don't enjoy going in there and spending $20 for a shirt anymore though. I mean, If I reallllly like it, that's fine, the purchase would be worth it, but otherwise, I try not to buy anything, because I just wouldn't be able to afford it. I'd rather go to Playto's closet (a thrift shop that sells teen brands like Hollister, Abercrombie and also Forever21).

Sooo

I went school shopping on Friday.
This time I went to the International mall instead of the Countryside mall.
The International mall is bigger and has more stores.
I like it though because the Forever21 is like, 5 times the size of the one in the Countryside mall.
I didn't buy much, but I did take some pictures if the stuff I tried on.

Whenever I go into Forever21, I usually find one of these skirts. I never end up buying it though. I have a love hate relationship with these types of skirts. When I try them on, they seem to poof out too much around the waist. At least for my taste. But in this picture, it doesn't look half that bad.
Why oh why must you play tricks on me mind? Why?

This was a cool acid wash-type sweatshirt I tried on. I didn't get it though, because I was trying to only buy stuff I needed. For school.

I did buy this shirt. I needed a basic collared shirt. Something about collared shirts is just so stylish to me... Simple but effortlessly cool.

I also bought:
a pair of jeans. The wash of them is cool. It's a light wash. Kind of hard to explain.
Black Keds. The lace up kind. I've taken a liking to them lately. I want to get a white pair too (in leather so they don't get dirty as eaisly).
A loose white T-shirt. A basic every closet needs.
I think I bought something else... I just don't remember what.

Before going to the mall, My mom took my sister and I to Plato's Closet and we sold some clothes for extra mall money. I also go two shirts there for under $10! Yeah, I like it there.

So, my school starts on Tuesday, and then picture day is on Wednesday. How odd is that?
Andddd, I AM going to finish my summer reading tomorrow.

Another thing that's happening tomorrow isss
a thrift store is opening
CLOSE TO MY HOUSE!

It's in bike riding distance, so I would be able to go thrifting on a whim. Sweetness, right?

Also, I don't think I'm posting any more photos of Belize. I posted enough in the last post..

And lastly, Dylan (ex-boyfriend) and I got back together today, after church.

And with that, I bid you a farewell. I hope you all are having a lovely week so far.

Off to somewhere foreign

I'm waking up at 2:45 A.M. tomorrow.
Then I'm going to Belize for a week.




So, I went shopping the other day. I only took a picture of a skirt and I shirt I didn't buy for some reason... I always forget to take pictures of what I try on.

I kinda wish I had bought it now.... Oh well:(


I did, however, buy a shirt, skirt, and a pair of shorts. I was going to wear the skirt and shirt paired with a cardigan and tights to the church service we'll be attending on Sunday, but apparently it wasn't modest enough.

So, I went through my mom's closet, picked out a skirt that I kinda liked, made it high waisted, and *BAM!*, church appropriate attire.

So, anyways, I'll see ya'll in a week. Hopefully with pictures, and a tan. Haha:)
Also, I have one scheduled post for all of you while I'm gone, but that's it. And it's short, nothing special. Oh, and there's no internet out there. So, I hope you all are having a good week, keep it safe.

Adios!

Finally.

Sooo, I went to the mall the other day. I got maybe, 6 shirts, and 2 pairs of shorts. Now, most of them are good summer shirts, nothing too flashy in my opinion.

Shirt-Pacsun Shorts-Hollister


This shirt came from PacSun. When I saw it, I immediately wanted it. I also got it in purple and blue, because it was two for $25, and I love purple and blue together! But now I've got some tie-dyeness in my wardrobe, which makes my happy. Because I like tie-dye:)

So, I dropped another $50 dollars at Hollister.
On TWO pairs of shorts.
Yayyyy... NOT.
But their shorts are just so comfy and I couldn't find shorts anywhere else and I desperately need shorts because I'm going to a week long camp on Sunday!! Well, actually, there will be a lock-in at my church Saturday, then at 5AM on Sunday, we're going to hop on a charter bus and make our way up to North Carolina.
I'll try to get pictures.

Anyways, I got my Teen Vogue the other day, and I was so excited! They had men-styled shoes in their pictures. And I love man shoes!

Also, I saw this shirt on the Forever21 website, and man OH man am I lusting after it.
I think I might end up getting my mom to order it for me...

Edit- This is my 50th post! Oh my lanta :-0. Half way to 100! Thanks to everyone who has taken the time to read and comment on my blog over the course of it's existence! You guys are great.:)

Warming up to it

I went to the mall yesterday and I bought a dress. Three were so many other things I wanted to buy, but I just couldn't focus. I was going to buy a dress and a shirt from forever21, but I talked myself out of it.
I couldn't find the dress I bought on the pacsun website, but I'm probably going to wear it on Sunday, so you'll get pictures of it around then.

These are the two skirts I bought in previous shopping adventures. The first one is high waist, and the second one I wear at my hip.

Those were some mobile pics of me wearing the two skirts I bought and a dress I tried on. That shirt looks really good with the high waist skirt I think, but it made me fee like a clown because of those ruffles. Haha:)

Anyways, I had some friends come with me to the mall yesterday, which didn't help my shopping experience. I felt like I had to rush, so that's another reason why I couldn't focus that well on actually buying things. We took tons of pictures though.

Here it is...

Here's a necklace I got from the Salvation Army a while back. I can't really get any good accessory shots with any of the cameras in my house. They always turn out blurry. So annoying!

This actually used to be my mom's skirt, she was going to get rid of it, but I decided to play around with it. Don't know if I'll end up keeping it or not.

I didn't end up posting everything I planned on posting, like the owl necklace didn't get itself up here. Whoops :p. I'm not really in the mood for writing though, and I have to go help around the house, so, until tomorrow...maybe.
