Fresh influence is suffering without camera access

I ordered a new camera, should be here in the next two weeks.

I promise then, I will give you presents!!

Maybe I'll consider another lame photobooth post before then.

Thanks for sticking around!

Never compromise

American Apparel tye-dye unitard, black sweetheart dress, cranberry scarf, borrowed/thrifted red pumps, f21 felt fedora

I know, I know, really terrible quality and lame photos. Haha, welcome to my kitchen, like the magnets?

These photos totally don't do the outfit justice, but I felt so good wearing it.

I'm wearing a bodysuit/unitard under the dress to prevent it from riding up and it creates a pretty cute detail in the back where the tye-dye shows through the mesh.

When I wore this outfit- it made me really think about moving to LA. I would wear this every day if I could, love the outfit! Hate wearing pants! :D

Bought the hat this weekend at F21, I'm been scouting for one like it the past few months but have been very reluctant to buy one. This one is thick felt and I love the color, especially with my hair color.

Borrowed the pumps from my sister, recently I have been buying the stuff she picks up from thrift stores from her, she's my buyer, I love her taste but somehow the shoes always fit me better. I guess I have a more common foot? I don't know but thank goodness we are about the same shoe size.

I know the pictures aren't great- but at least I'm posting.

Love you all,

Denim on denim

Four-year-old Nordstrom denim jacket, American Apparel cranberry scarf and black acid wash collared shirt, target skinny jeans, urban outfitters lace-up leather boots.

Like I said before guys, my cameras got stolen!

Instead of letting my blog suffer from this great tragedy, I must result to photobooth photos for a few weeks.

I still haven't decided on which digital camera I will replace my stolen ones with.

I wore this to see my friend's band play on Mission Street in San Francisco.

The band is sooo good, really pop-punk and super fun! Check out Heartsounds!

These photos were taken after I got home- you can see what the precipitation did to my hair :)

I love Gap's new advertisements for denim on denim. It's all coming back.

All for now,

Lame lame lame

I know it's been forever since I have posted anything of substance.

My cameras (note the plural) were stolen at at party. I am too careless.

I am looking to replace them with some credit card points I was gifted at Christmas.

I start school today. Right now I'm at the quad of my Community College, waiting for my dance class to start in an hour. It's nice not to be rushed but I sincerely hope I don't see any of the new hotties I've met because I look like poop.

Outfit:

American Apparel black ankle leggings

White Hanes V-neck Tee shirt

American Apparel cranberry thermal lined hoodie

White Espirit moccasins

You know, these ones. I have been wearing them practically every day this summer.

I'm so sorry this post is so lame.

If you have any digital camera suggestions- lay them on me.

All for now,

A blast from the past

Here are some photos that represent my most memorable and terrible fashion moments and inspiration from the past few years. Some of these are painfully embarrassing-- but I don't regret any of it.

All of these experiences and memories made me who I am today, and I am proud of who I am.

Hope you have a nice laugh at this post :D

I hope this was a sweet reminder to stay true to yourself- remember where you came from. The silly inspirations you had when you were younger guided you to who you are now. We may be embarrassed of our awkward phases or senseless mistakes, but everyone lives past it and eventually learns from it.

Sometimes I like to think that I have become the woman I always envisioned myself being.

I don't think I am exactly who I want to be yet, but I still have time to figure it out.

Crop me in

american apparel high-waist zipper shorts & oversized crop top, urban outfitters pocket watch, payless bow-tie flats

I was never a big fan of bikinis, tankinis or tummy tops when I was younger. But a little high-waist action to even it all out was painless enough.

I was so excited to get the pocket watch from urban. I had been debating whether or not to invest in a Betsey Johnson watch.

I decided I'm just not ready for that kind of responsibility (taking off for showering & washing hands, keeping in safe place from breaking, replacing battery every so many months, ect). I found this pocket watch as an efficient alternative.

Wore this outfit to work from 9-5pm. I kept the jacket on for most of the day- it already feels like autumn here. I start school in two weeks, can you believe that?

Recently cleaned out my closet and organized most of my clothes- excited to wear things that have been hiding at the bottom of my drawer.

All for now <3
