2.20 // le neige est retourne [the snow is back]

After a blissful, snow-free week (even if it was, you know, below 0), we’re getting 2 inches… per hour.
Agh, MI weather. >:P

Got this drapey top for like $4, but it’s a large and therefore much too big – i had to pin the braided racerback back straps so the neckline wasn’t down to my belly button.

top – target
leggings – f21
shoes – gojane
glasses – mom’s vint

2.17 // major outfit catchup

Wow, I really haven't posted in forever... I got a couple new pieces and it's nice today and there's no school, so here goes...



My proudest creation du jour... Inspired partially by MJ's fall '09 collection, which was extremely 80's-based.
dress – gift
scarf – orchid lane
shoes – gojane
glasses – mom’s, vint
earrings – some beach shop


Ha ha, from winterfest forever ago... Dress, F21. Shoes, Gojane. Bag, F21.
Going to sexy-simple-chic with vintage glasses, DIY cutoffs, and quasi-stripper heels (Gojane). And a messy bun. I actually really like this one - can't wait until it's actually warm enough to feasibly wear this!

Sort of a weird 60's mafia member? I dunno what I was going for here... I sort of like it, though... whatever it is...
Blazer – sal army
hat – target
shoes – gojane
skirt – target
sweatervest – aero
glasses – mom’s vint

And the $8 Target dress! Love the colour & cowl neck, and it feels super silky... and the tights (target) are really comfy too, with a very subtle lacey pattern... love this. Oh, hat from F21.



So yup. I've been posting pretty much daily on BWchic, hence the absence here... also I haven't worn anything interesting in... years. It's so sad. :(
HEY! tights under shorts! durrr.
lol. TTFN.

2.04 // outfits

{in the trenches}

Haha, such a cliche title. Oh well. Home sick again… though really, more [pathologically] tired than sick. Slept for 12 hours, plus a nap, and I’m still dead tired.

Trench – london fog (mom’s)
jeans – jcp
shoes – gojane
top – brother’s

{a cape and a cat}

This cape is actually green, but the colour’s off in these pictures. Whatever.
Guest appearance by my quasi-evil cat, Pascal! :)

Cape – mom’s
boots – payless
cardi – f21
belt – brother’s
glasses – claire’s

Off to do some catch-up AmLit work. Blech.

2.03 // home sick... ergo, dress up :)

Yupdeedoodlerers.

Haha… yup I’m home sick playing dress up… the tunic ended up a tad short in this photo, I think…
And the glasses: because apparently my corneas are filled with agitated white blood cells and my eyes need to fix themselves (since I had a “rare but severe” reaction to the steroid eye drops yesterday). So I’ll be wearing them for at least 2 weeks, sans contacts. Blech.

Hat – f21
top – f21
shoes – gojane
socks – target
necklace – thrifted
earrings – f21
glasses – main street optometry :P

I don’t know why these pictures didn’t turn out, really. The lighting was excellent… noon and sunny. Stupid cameras.

New pencil skirt for only $20 – gray denimish with pockets.

skirt – kohl’s
top – jcp
tights – ? gift
shoes – gojane
earrings – f21

Blech. Off to nap/do some & pushups/slave away at homework.

Cardi, top, & leggings – F21
shoes – kohl’s? or thrifted
belt – brother’s
necklace – vint
