Late Nights/Early mornings...

Due to my work schedule (I work nights, 7 to 7, 12 hour shifts. 3 days a week) I have weird sleeping hours. Even though I long to sleep when its dark out, and to actually go out during daylight hours, it rarely happens. Usually my schedule is spread out through the week, and on my nights off, I usually cant sleep at night due to my body being use to the crazy schedule.  which leads to sleep all day the next day, and then either a) a repeat of the night before or b) I go to work and am still up all night. its a vicious cycle and I try very hard to break it. Take last night for example: they send me home from work because it was slow and I had OT, I get home at midnight, try to go to sleep around 3, and 430 Im still awake. So, I get up and try to pack up some colthes since we are moving in a few weeks. Now Im finally feeling tired at 6am. What?!? I will not allow myself to sleep all day. I have things to go, people to see and I really want to go thrifting!

One pair of shoes....

okay... heres the truth, as much as I love high heels.... Im a flats girl... 9 out of 10 times Im going to choose flats. Dont get me wrong, I love how a heels look, I just feel more comfortable in flats, and usually Im always on the go, so I dont want to be falling over in heels all day (have I mentioned how clumsy I am??). So, I saw these adorable Kate Spade flats and immediately thought of 3 summer dress ideas for them. 

 

p.s.- how much does the blue dress remind you of T. Swift??

The White T-Shirt

There are so many ways to wear a simple white t-shirt. My favorites are to wear it with jeans, heels/flats and to pile on the jewlery!

What Im Dreaming of for Fall....

All though it is the middle of July, and it never does get very cold here in Texas, Im still dreaming of lovely coats for this winter.... A girl can dream right??
I've been hitting up thrift stores for look-a-likes of these lively pieces to stock up on untill the weather is right.
Im loving motorcycle jackets, oversized blazers, and Warbler inspired schoolboy jackets.

New Beginings

I finally started my blog! Im so excited. Ive given this so much thought so I hope it all goes well.
Im hoping to use this to allow myself to be more creative and express myself with my photography and fashion, as well as a place to get my thoughts out.
For the next few months as I get all of my nursing school applications in, I will have some down time on my hands since I am only taking a few classes this fall. (2 more to go and Ill have my Associates! WOOHOO! not a huge deal, but at least its something to hold me over untill I get into school) With this unexpected down time, in combination with my crazy sleep schedule due to working nights at the hospital, Im hoping that this blog will give the space to do something creative with my free time. The last few years have been extremely busy between school, work and family life and I need this time to get back to being me.

So with that,
I hope you enjoy whats to come!
