1, 2, 3, 4

Hi everyone i am so so sorry for my blog absence!!!!! i just got home from a eleven and half hour shift at the ski resort i work at and am totally pooped right now. I work a ton next week but i am going to try and get out for outfit photos on monday which is my one day off (woot woot). Last week i went on a awesome trip to visit my sister and i have tons of new stuff to show you all it is so nice to be able to afford things over ten dollars but i am still super cheap generally fifteen is my max lol. Although i did splurge and buy a pair of brand spanking new doc martens!!! i have been searching thrift stores and ebay for two years now but i have very large feet and have never been able to find my size!!! So i finally bought new ones for myself because i never buy anything remotely expensive and i have read they are excellent for walking once they have been broken in. I really love how they look especially with skinny jeans so here are some fab inspiration pics for them. I hope everyone had a great day!!

Words Trip Like Untied Shoelaces

Hat: Spring $12, Leopard Print Scarf: Spring $15, Shirt: Bluenotes $6, Pants: Smart Set $12, Purse: Value Village $6, Boots: Spring $13

I never used to be much of a accessories person but they seriously can make a outfit look better by adding just a few things. This is such a casual outfit but i love how the mixed prints, bag and hat make it look more interesting. I went shopping on monday and got lots of great stuff!!!!! Value Village was having a 5%0 off sale for their Super Saver Club members which i totally recommend signing up for because i found some great things like my purse in these photos for super cheap. I cannot wait to take outfit photos of everything, i finally found my leopard print scarf at the mall which i have been looking ages for, it is AMAZING i love it so much plus it just goes with everything. I got these pants in Smart Set which kindof surprised me, i have been wanting skinny cargo pants for ages and i tried these ones on for fun since i thought they would be to small but they fit perfectly. I dont know if i really have the kindof legs which look good in pants being pear shaped and all but they are so comfortable especially on lazy days so i have been wearing pants alot more than i used to. Have a great day everyone!!

Sweater: Thrift $7, Tunic: borrowed from my sister, Belt: Thrift: $.50, Leggings: Stitches $10, Boots: Thrift $3 (oh yeah i couldnt believe that price either :))

Ohmygoodness i cant believe it has been over fifteen days since my last post!!!! I had a really wonderful holiday this year and got to see lots of my family :). This was the first year i was the legal drinking age in Ontario so my friend and i went out for New Years which resulted in some funny memories and me getting a nasty cold that is finally going away now. I also worked alot during that time although thankfully i have had the last few days off after working seven in a row. I am SO excited to get my paycheck for the last two weeks on friday, i am going to do some major shopping before i start saving all of my money for school. I did order these boots from Aldo as a little Christmas present to myself i have developed a tiny obsession with knee high boots. I borrowed this tunic from my sister when i was looking through her closet one night. I offered to buy it from her but i really cant blame her for wanting to keep it since it is totally adorable!! I hadnt taken outfit pictures in such a long time i totally forgot what to do in front of the camera which is why there are only two photos. I found this belt at my local thrift store, it is so cool it wraps around and clasps with these two gold buckles, i will have to take close up shots next time. I bought these boots back in October and completely forgot about them until now, they are kindof beat up if your look at them to closely but for three dollars they are awesome bargain!!!
