work on a face

volcom jacket, madewell top (via crossroads), j. crew brooch, target skirt, converse 

probably the hardest thing about fashion blogging is getting good pics. i never know how to pose!

the plan

target scarf, thrifted jacket, f21 top, urban outfitters skirt, j. crew tights

current goals: 1) wear cute outfits regularly; 2) take pictures of them; 
3) post them on blog. also: study.

school days

 

j. crew beanie and backpack, forever 21 jacket, school sweatshirt over kohl's shirt, forever 21 jeans, frye boots, converse

i think weather-appropriate, comfortable, kinda-cute outfits and preppy accessories maximize brain power. really!

just pretend

thrifted sweater, old navy top, j. crew beanie

i was particularly unphotogenic yesterday, so just believe me when i say this is what i wore. to get the idea of how i looked, just imagine dark skinnies, bow wedges with navy socks, and while we're at it, super long legs and gorgeous hair. why not?

mix it up

wal-mart sweater, thrifted top and jeans, ny&co scarf, payless shoes, forever 21 ring

rather casual i know, but i wanted to display this ensemble because it seems most people are wary of mixing patterns. not to say this is a perfect execution, of course, but i think it shows that mixing is much easier than you might believe. the colors are all very muted, the sweater and top share a certain amount of slouch, and...i think you know what i have to say about leopard.

thanks to my boyfriend's sis for the awesome makeup lesson. you can't see my eyes, but believe you me, she worked wonders with my ancient eyeshadow palette. now, if only i could find someone to do my hair.

speaking of sisters, have you met my own? she introduced me to the world of blogging, is an excellent and thought-provoking writer, and is about as obsessed as i am with all things cute.
