Hard at work // Outfit Post

Currently working on a shirt for Apparel class, its due on Wednesday so hopefully I'll be done by then but first here is Saturday's outfit post, I've been in comfy pajamas all day sewing today and its honestly really mind blowing how long it takes to make a simple shirt. Seamstresses must be really bitchy or just super patient because I know this crap takes me hours upon hours to do and I end up in a horrible mood, with barely anything done! I still have sleeves, a collar, and a button placket to do all in just two days. Looks like it'll be a couple of sleepless all-nighters! So anyway, Saturdays outfit.

This bracelet found on my shopping trip Saturday only cost $1 at Goodwill! I was freaking shocked when I found it, it was right next to the cash register so I wouldn't say this was an impulse buy. I've been looking for studded leather bracelets everywhere that don't cost as much as my car like the one Hermes created, which is beautifully designed, and also the original.

And last, my new Big Buddah bag! I didn't use it with this outfit but I just bought it and this was a great find at a local Plato's Closet here by my college and I checked online and this bag retails for about $100 but I only paid $25 for it! :)

Happy Birthday Mom // Randoms Post

First off I would like to start this post wishing my mother a very happy birthday! This was a photo taken last year, because I am away at school I cannot take a new one like I did last year. But I bet I'll have my chance once I come home to visit!

Now, this weekend was really crazy, I did so much! I'll post pictures once I receive them but for now heres a picture of this really cool tank top I found. I've been looking for some plain graphic tops to wear on days when I'm feeling like a slacker haha so here it is pictured below with a couple of randoms. Shots of my new dorm? Its a work in progress! :)

New flats! I love the neon blue color inside. I bought a pair in blue and they have a neon green sole!

Amazing jewelry I found in this book I rented from the library, I wonder if people still do that? Rent books from the library? Anyway, some more sketches, and some non-legitimate outfit posts because I had no one to photograph me that day! Scroll!

Collar-style necklaces, they were very inspiring!

Bracelets from the 1950s

And last, a necklace I made.
