Starry Starry Night




Happy Wednesday!
I've spent the last two days doing absolutely nothing. I've enjoyed it quite a bit. I watched Our Idiot Brother, Stupid Crazy Love, and caught up on Gossip Girl. (Chuck and Blair need to end up together!)

These pictures are from when Boyfriend took me out for a hot date a Jimmy Changas. Its not a fancy resturant, we were both overdressed. But Boyfriend looked good and I got to wear my new shoes! Sister M took these pictures, sorry for the poor quality.





What I wore:
Top: F21
Skirt: Thrifted ($1.50 - holla!)
Belt: Thrifted
Heels: Gift from sister (Target)

I hope everyone is having a great Thanksgiving weekend! Did anyone go Black Friday shopping? On Thursday at midnight me and my little sister went to Bath and Body Works and stocked up on smellums and Christmas gifts. I have enough stuff to last me a few years! haha

Did you score any good deals?

Vest




This is what I wore today. I bought this amazing vintage leather vest in Austin last year at the coolest vintage shop. Austin has the best vintage shops. You can find the most unique things there. I feel in love with this vest at first sight.

I dont know about you, but I am crazy excited about Thanksgiving this week!! I forone cannot wait to stuff my face!! Even though I am a vegetarian, on Thanksgiving I still eating my grandmas stuffing. Yes, she puts little bits of turkey in it, but for this one day of the year, I dont care. Its the best. Ever.
Thanksgiving is my favorite holiday. I get to see all of my family, and eat and the Chirstmas spirit is just begining. Me and my sisters have the tradition where we all wake up and watch the Macys parade together while we get ready to go to our grandmas.

What are you most looking forward to on Thanksgiving??















What I wore:
Top: F21
Vest: thrifted
Jeans: F21

Weekend

This weekend has been spent doing the following:
1. Watching Breaking Dawn, which I thought was good, but not what I was expecting.
2. An Engagement party for Boyfriends brother.
3. Freebirds- the better Chipolte
4. Watching Bad Teacher- HORRIBLE MOVIE
5. Cuddling
6. Naps
7. Making a Veggie Pizza!! = fantastic (blog post on it soon!)
8. Spanish Homework
9. Paper for Tech Writing that is due on Monday
10. I went to F21 yesterday to buy a belt and attempt to buy a Christmas present - I had to leave the store. I was so depressed. I love clothes. and with NURSING SCHOOL starting in January, its best that I dont buy anything for a long time to help with expenses. Plus, its not like Im going to have the time to dress up super cute everyday. Its good and bad. Fashion is my hobby. and Im pretty much going to have to give it up for the 18 months Im in school. But its good because becoming a nurse is my dream (along with marrying Boyfriend and babies). Its just a tough situation.


How is your weekend going? 
thank you for all of the lovely comments. Im definately feeling better now.
 :)





I wore this outfit last week when I went out with some friends for drinks. 
The top was $3 thrifted and the pants were $10 from F21! yaa for cheap outfits!

I Do, I Do


This weekend I went to a wedding with Boyfriends family. It was very unique and beautiful and Im very happy for the couple!

I've been feeling a little down lately. Feeling not so great about myself.
I need to get back into my exercise routine and start eating healthy.
I feel like its really starting to show and I feel so down about how I look. Most of my pants dont fit anymore. I know I shouldnt be complaining. I know Im still a healthy size, but I dont feel my best, and I dont feel like me.
I just want my clothes to fit. I like them too much for them to not fit.

How do you cheer yourself up when your down??





What I wore:
Top: Mudd
Belt: Thrifted
Skirt: Thrifted
Clutch: F21
Necklace: World Market - aka- the best store ever!
Shoes: Target
(Im pretty sure CPW on these are amazing, I paid $25)

Grandma Sweater


Last week I was Skyping with little sister and she totally called me out - "What the heck are you wearing? That looks like something a Grandma would wear". Me - "I got it at a thrift store"
Sister -"Good, it looks like it."

Shes blunt and hilarious and I love her for it.
This sweater vest is acutally really awkward. After reading New Dress A Day for over a year now, I've had the urge to wear a sweater vest. So I found this beauty for 90 cents. SCORE. The idea was to wear it over a button up. But I felt that made me feel like a blobbbb. So, I cut the top in to a V neck, folded over the edges and wa-la! This is what I got. It was comfy and cute and perfect for a cloudy day studying.

Old School


Hello friends. Im sorry for the break. I've been busy and I haven't had much time for pictures.
This weekend my little sister was home. 
We went to the craft show at my church! SO MUCH FUN!! I really enjoyed it! I cant wait to show you all of the goodies I found!

These pictures were taken last week. My twin sister Stefani took them, so I apologize for the quality.

What I wore:
Dress: Target
Boots: Target
Jacket: Thrifted

This jacket is like 5X too big on me... but I still love wearing it.

Twin


This is my twin sister Stefani. We went to breakfast last week, and she looked awesome. So I took some pictures of her outfit. The entire outfit is from either F21 or Target. If you would like to know specifics, just ask and I can find out. 

My sister's style is very different from mine. While I would define my style as bohemian, classic, laidback, indie chic, and a bit androgynous at times, she is loud, girly,adventerous, and glamourous. 
Im more rachel bilson meets lauren conrad meets nicole richie. Shes more rihanna meets Katy Perry meets Gwen Stefani. Shes always in a dress or skirt. She almost always has on red lipstick. I barely wear makeup and feel more comfortable in skinnies.

As different as we are, I adore my sister and her style.

Impossible


This is what I wore to church on Sunday. Yes, Im sorry for the none face pictures. expect a few more of those to come. When Im busy and boyfriends busy, we dont see each other much. Which equals no one to take my pictures, no good self timer spots and no tripod. But fear not my friends, this weekend little sister M will be home, and shes kinda amazing at taking photographs.
But I really wish I had a better picture of this skirt. Its beautiful and so girly, you just want to twirl in it. I thrifted this skirt and I've had it for 8 years and Ive worn it maybe twice? Im thinking we will see this skirt more in my future. This belt actually came with a dress I bought of the same print. Heeeyyy go free belts!

Tonight is my overtime night at work. Gooooo extra money. I hate thursdays because I miss my showsssss. 

My Shows:
(the definition of "My Shows": shows I've followed allllll the way from back in the day and feel an emotional attachtment to the characters. I some times talk about them like we are real life friends. Just so we are all clear on how crazy I am.)
1. Greys Anatomy
2. One Tree Hill
 (the season that starts in January will be the last one (sadface))
3. The Office
4. The O.C.
Yes, I realize that this show is no longer on air.
 I still watch reruns and own all of the seasons.
and still add quotes into everyday conversations that noone understands.
5. Season 1-3 of Gossip Girl. Then it got too weird for me.
6. Modern Family
7. Glee!
(I own wayyyyy to much of their music on iTunes)

Shows I Love to watch, but have far less of an emotional tie to, also I barely ever have time to watch these, but try when I can:
1. Parenthood. 
2.The current season of Gossip Girl
3. Parks and Recreation - funniest show!
4. Up All Night
5. 30 Rock
6. Happy Endings
7. Pan Am
  (such a great new show!! I love the glamour and fashion of the 60s!)


So..... If you cant tell, Im a tv junkie. granted I barely have time to watch any of them these days, but I like to pretend I have time to do everything. 

What shows do you like to watch?

P.S. - blog title came from 'whats playing at this moment on iTunes"- Impossible by Band of Skulls is such a great song. In fact, the entire Band of Skulls album - Baby Darling Doll Face Honey is such a great album. You should really check it out!
