Pay close attention to this shiny sidewalk

Today i went to this small suburb outside the city to look around at the antique whatnot there, it was really cool. The town square was just darling.


In a ballet store, filled with boxes upon boxes of ballet shoes




pink top from forever 21, grey vest from H&M, yellow bow homemade, and skirt from thrift store (not shown)


Oh, you may have notice that that is me in the magazine! I few months ago I did an add for a regional company and while I was at this cafe, I found it in a magazine! If you look closely at the picture you can notice the ominous wheelchair in the background of me holding a basketball.
Just a note, i look like 12 years old in this picture.




safety pins are my favorite fashion tool

One Hit Wonder

Sorry about the bad picture quality, but thats what I get when i procrastinate and used flash while taking the pictures in the dark.
Lesson learned.
I really like this shirt for unexplained reasons honestly, but i always love casual tees with big ol' words on it!


got these black mary janes for a whopping 5 dolla! and added the socks i got for christmas for some color


tee shirt -urban outfitters, purple silk blazer from goodwill(originally topshop!) black skinnys from forever 21, black t strap flats from thrift store, and socks gift for christmas. arrow earring from urban outfitters.com

I quite proud of these pictures, since it tooke me like a full 15 minutes to get them. I love pictures like this, a la taylor swift's fearless album cover .

I'm not inclined to resign to maturity

Sorry i haven't posted in a few days, I was in North Carolina for this divine MLK day; spending my days skiing and unashamedly playing the snow. I made a snowman!
The skiing was really great, it took a second to get used to but I nailed it. 



I brought my clothing staples o the trip, like my faaavorite cardigan that I totally overwear. 
yellow cardigan from urban outfitters, black wool shirt from thrift store, dark wash skinny stirrup jeans from Gap, boots from cathy jean, and lilac hat from old navy.


It's sorta crazy that i've never seen this much snow


Catcha later

Bamboozled

Mother Nature tricked me. 
It started snowing again...Why must the weather be so bipolar!!!!




But check out these lovely pieces of heaven below.



BAM! You can't tell me that these are not the best things you have ever laid eyes on. I got these splendid grey hidden wedges in the mail yesterday and I might or might not have freaked out. I don't know what it is about getting shoes in the mail as apposed to getting them from the store, but it is way more satisfying. 

Productivity can be interpreted in many different ways...

in other words, I did nothing today.  
Hey! what do ya know, its not snowing anymore. Crazy, huh?

Since we have been out of school for a bit, i walked around the neighborhood, saying howdy to neighbors and chillin with my hommies.  (I promise I don't talk like that in real life) 
All in all, today was pretty laidback, usually I have a  To Do List for the day or week, but today  I abandoned all rules and inhibitions, whoo!



"Nice ride mister."





Happy Tuesday Everybody!
