Houndstooth w/color!

I've had this beautiful vest for almost 2 years and I've always worn it over a black shirt of some sort. I've seen several ladies, including my lovely cousin Rose, pair their houndstooth items with color and I'd been contemplating doing it for quite some time. I ended up loving this look. I thrifted the cardigan, and the shoes. The tank tops and the vest came from DEB, the jeans from Fashion Bug. These shoes... oh I love them. They've got this tiny little kitten heels, but you don't know that when I'm wearing jeans. I love kitten heels because I'm 5'7" and pumps make me tower over everyone else. Not that I usually let that stop me, I just hate having to stoop down to hear people.

Reunited and it feels so good





I purchased this new eyeshadow quad the other day and I love it. It's nice to have something where the shades are picked out and I just have to choose how to apply it. I got this shirt at Maurices. When I walked into my best friends house today she said, "I love it when you wear that shirt! It means it's beautiful and warm outside!" The skirt is from Fashion Bug... I hadn't been able to find a way to wear it that I actually liked until today. I think the trick is heels... it just doesn't look right with flats. Also, Friday, I set my phone on top of my car while pumping gas and drove off while it was still on my car... I came back to find it in the intersection having been run over several times. Miraculously, it still made and received calls. Anywho, the last pic is my excited face now that I have my new EnV3. I will totally recommend them because really, any phone that can get run over multiple times and only suffer lack of screen functionality and can still make calls... is a champ!

Sweet treat


I'm not too sure what to say about this outfit.. this is by far my favorite skirt ever. The striped halter is from Alloy, the green hoodie and pink tank are both from DEB, the skirt is from fashion bug, and the shoes are Simply Vera from Kohl's ($1.99 in January... I love clearance). I felt like one of those brightly colored lollipops all day.

I didn't get a picture of my entire outfit this day, but I did get my hair colored Saturday and I adore it! I decided to wear my houndstooth tank as a top layer and loved the look!

My favorite make up looks

I find the rollers to be a hot look. I really love the way the make up turned out though.
My hair changes colors a lot...
This makes me think of 80's Nikes or something.
Inspired by My Little Pony
 I love the way teal and turquoise look together.
This was my make up on Easter, very springy, yes?




My worth is not determined by the price of my clothes

I adore my yellow nail polish... and my beautiful Wal-Mart flip flops
 Instead of subjecting my hair to the normal blow drying/flatironing torture, I dried it most of the way and pinned a little braid back on each side and just flatironed the bangs... my hair showed it's appreciation by being soft and lovely all day.

I got this yellow tee shirt at Old Navy in 2007 and it's really time to retire it but it's so soft and so comfy I just can't. The purple tank was $1 at a KMart super clearance sale, and the capris are from DEB. Let it be known, I will buy almost anything for a $1, hence the title.

Welcome

I decided it was time I created a blog to showcase some of the things I love the most, fashion, make up, and hair. I'm sure I'll be adding some other things as we go, but for now we'll stick to those three.

So... the outfit.
Purple tank-Clothing Warehouse
Yellow Tee-DEB outlet
Jeans-DEB outlet
Bronze sandals-Clothing Warehouse

Something about the purple tank top seems to insist that it be paired with bronze shoes... as luck would have it, I have 4 different pairs of bronze shoes so it never gets too boring.

Anyway, welcome to my blog!
