Trying to be Cool

Trying to keep warm/being a nun???

Top: DIY / Shorts: Urban Outfitters / Scarf: XXI / Shoes: eBay

These were taken on a day when it was far too cold to be wearing a tank top, and the wind was extremely active. I've also been wearing my hair like this nonstop. I've always loved braids, so when I randomly created these I fell in love. I also feel some Lolita vibes seeping from it as well...

Wearing shorts around my hips is also another new thing for me. I'm so used to wearing high-waisted things, so hip- hugging bottoms are slightly different. I like when the crotch is low, it seems so unattractive, but then draws attention to your hips and me likes. 

I will most likely keep wearing scarves/bandanas around my neck for a while. Something about it adds sophistication to an outfit (even if it's a bandana). I also have a weird fixation with necks so more neck-wear will be a thing. 

Mama, you're beautiful

Don't mind me dancing....

Once again, I made a video. I apologize for the crappy quality on it, because the movie maker on my computer is not so great. 

I really loved how these pictures came out. Claudia and I were frolicking around my back yard and decided to take pictures. The red of the brick contrasts nicely with my bright green shorts. I got these from Choies for Christmas and they are so great. I love the fit and the color is so vibrant. I also got this shirt from Goodwill one day. It's got a 90's vibe to it, all the more reason to love it. I'm not really one for necklaces like this, but my mom got it for me for Christmas, and it grew on me. I just liked it paired with the greens and blues in my outfit. 

Someone on Tumblr gave me the idea to take myself out on a date. She spent the whole day by herself doing miscellaneous things, such as going to the movies, getting ice cream, and going to a museum. I feel like everyone should do this at least once a year. Yeah it can be slightly awkward doing things by yourself, but it's also a way to connect with yourself more. People are often surrounded by others, so this would be a nice way to take a step back and reconnect with yourself. I am off school Friday, so I plan on taking myself out. I will take pictures and definitely post something about it on here. I advise you guys to do the same, and let me know how it goes!

Is it safe to say I felt like a school girl in this outfit? I couldn't get over the print of that skirt though, geniussss.

I've just boarded the Lana Del Rey train, and it's amazing. Lolita has been on repeat in my room for dayz.

Everything thrifted 

Abandoned bleachers make a great background for photos. 

Claudia was looking like a space cadet with her shirt and glasses while I felt like some version of a 90's Clueless extra (only because of the shirt). Summer lovin at it's finest.

The Heat is a must see for summer and you will laugh so hard that you accidentally spit out your drink and infuriate the people in front of you (SORRY LADY!). But yeah go see it defoz.

Okay, the first thing you've probably noticed is that neither of us is in the same background or an even remotely close area. I took these pics of Claudia yesterday since we can't always be together to take pics. So she just did a wardrobe change and tadaaaaa, another outfit was born. Her Jurassic Park shirt completes me. 

My sister took these pics of me today after church, and the wind was just going CRAY. Literally hair kept flying in my mouth..not cute. BUT, let's just talk about these shoes. I am completely obsessed with them. I got them for my ring ceremony, which was Friday night. They are so amazing and the flowers on the bottom are so cute. And I know I will be walkin around all summer in them, so just be ready. 

I also just got some new glasses frames that I posted yesterday, but here they are again. I don't wear my glasses all the time, but sometimes I just feel like wearing them. The frames are from an amazing Etsy shop that I linked up top. She has the coolest ones and they are really cheap too! 

Claudia also got some rad bracelets from Honduras for me. They are sort of like our friendship bracelets. One of them is purple and the other is a blue and green beaded one. We always used to buy the same bracelets and say "Oh, friendship bracelet, hollah!" But, we would always loose them or they would break. SO, this shall be the new bracelet and we will see how long that lasts....

Have a sunnnny Sunday.
