Photobucket


Jacket: Thrift $7, Shirt: Hanes $3, Skirt: H&m $7, Tights: $5 random boutique, Boots: Aldo $52

Now don't let these photos fool you it was so bloody cold while i was taking these photos!!!! i was totally underdressed and probably needed my winter coat, it just looked so nice outside while i was in my toasty warm living room. I was watching Grease on tv the other day and totally decided to channel my inner John Travolta and pop the collar of my jacket for these photos :). Now i know that you are probably thinking i don't have any other shoes because i wear these black boots on here constantly. I swear i tried some other ones but these just look soooo much better with the outfit which is what counts right!! I hope everyone had a wonderful day!!!

P.S I am a little worried my posts arn't showing up on blogrolls, does anyone know how to fix that????

I've Gotta Heart Full Of Soul

Blouse: Thrift $2, Blazer Warehouse One $30, Pants, Bluenotes: $15, Boots: Aldo $52, Jewellery: Ardenes, Sunglasses: Value Village

Yup you are seeing clearly ladies and maybe some gentlemen :) i am wearing pants!!! I have not worn jeans in a long long long time especially not on here, i think i have only taken outfit photos once with some ages ago when i first started blogging. Originally i was wearing my black bodycon skirt and tights with this outfit while we were shopping in the city. But I got these babies in Bluenotes for about seventy percent off!!!! I had been looking for blue jeans and i could have sworn in the store they looked dark blue but when i got them out in the car i realized they were really black. I have a hard time finding pants which fit my um "muscular" legs they are always to tight on the thighs or falling down at the waist so i decided to keep these anyways because i really loved them! We stopped to visit my aunt and uncle which is where i took these photos and i decided to change into them because it was ridiculously cold and that skirt isn't the warmest thing to be wearing :). I seriously love how the barn looks in these photos, i wish i had something like it in my back yard!! I think this blouse is one of my best thrifted bargains, i bought it in the summer and remember being unsure if i liked leopard print (i have no idea what i was thinking!!). It was fifty percent and only two dollars so i couldn't resist getting it, thank goodness :). I have been having some good luck thrift shopping lately, i have a few new things that i can't wait to show you including a leather vest and a jean jacket. Have a wonderful afternoon everyone!!

Only two photos today everyone, all of the other ones i took just did not turn out at all this time. I seemed to make the weirdest faces in every single photo or kept standing partially out of frame. I really hate when that happens!! Today i decided to start jogging again and man oh man are my muscles sore now :)!!!! I can't believe how out of shape i have gotten, not to mention cough* cough* the extra width i have accumlutated. I have a bunch of homework to do tonight so i hope everyone had a wonderful day!!

From The Rooftops I Remember There Was Snow



Photobucket

Dress: H&M $15, Blazer: Value Village: $8, Belt: Thrift $2, Stockings Ardenes $3, Boots: Spring $41

I would like to introduce everyone to my absolute favourite thrifted blazer. I had been searching for the perfect one with gold buttons and found this baby back in January. There is a kindof funny story about why i have never worn it. A few days after i bought the blazer i popped one front buttons much to my alarm. I always misplace things so i set it aside in a special drawer until i finally got around it sewing it back on. Well one day i got out the button, thread,needle and then set them on my bed so i could start. I can't remember why i had to leave but once i came back my thread and needle where right where i left them but the bloody button was absolutely no where to be found, i searched and searched but it was completely m.i.a. So finally after two months of not wearing the blazer i decided to bite the bullet and cut off the buttons on the pockets, sew them up and use one on the front. After finishing that and taking my outfit photos i was rummaging through my drawers to find something when i found an old winter hat and when i picked it up, out fell the infamous button. I have no idea how it got there but i am quite happy to finally have found it and already reattached the other two to the pockets!! I wore this outfit on Tuesday to the movies but just edited these photos today. I just got photoshop and am completely in love with it, not going to lie it is SO hard to stop playing around with the different settings. I hope everyone is having a lovely week!

Hey Goodlooking Why The Frown?



Photobucket

Blazer: Wearhouse One $30, tshirt: Bluenotes $7, Shorts: Thrift DIY $4, Stockings: Ardenes $3, Boots: Aldo $52, Jewellery: Ardenes

Wahoo today was the first day i have been able to get out to take photos since my last post it has been raining or snowing non stop (ugh). I actually wore this outfit on Wednesday to a Joel Plaskett concert with my sister which was really good!!! I love when bands sound better live then on their cd. I have become seriously obsessed with high waisted denim shorts after seeing so many bloggers looking awesome in theirs, so i decided to get out my pair i thrifted and cutoff last year. These are definitely going to be a new staple in my wardrobe from now on!! The lovely Hannah of The Fashion Genie asked me to do a interview a little while ago which was beyond exciting since it was the first time that has happend to me!!! Everyone go check out her blog and you can read the interview here. I am so sorry but i am terribly behind at replying to comments and reading blog updates, i have had alot of school work lately so everything just seems to piling up but i promise i will catch up eventually :). I hope everyone had a lovely day!
