Purple Flowers

Im back! Sorry it has been so long but I've been busy with school these past months. This summer will be a little busy as well. I am going to be a senior this year and there's a lot to be done and to prepare for but I will try my best to post as much as I can. I hope you enjoy my outfit here ! I wore this dress to my cousin's graduation today. Comments and opinions are welcome :)

Battle of the Sexes

I found this old video and thought it was pretty interesting. I laughed at the men a bit but the funniest part were the comments:

"are men who don't wear heels a bit lazy too?"

"i have no idea what these ************* are saying... when i see a woman all i think of is SEX SEX SEX SEX SEX lol i dont see what they wear SEX SEX SEX haha"

Ladies please do not take this video seriously. Alot of woemen were heated by this and I don't see why. These are five guys out of the billions of others in the world. Not everyone will agree with these men.

Flats are not my style but they look nice on some people. I do agree that girls or women who wobble in heels shouldn't try walking in them. I don't see how any guy would find that attractive; its just funny to look at. If you want to wear the giant glasses thats fine. Wear what you want to wear. As long as you feel cute and you're confident, some guy will like or not even care what you have on.

To make this funner, please comment on what you think of the video. And girls, lets flip the switch >;D. Tell me what you don't like about what the guys wear.

Too Much of Nothing

I love fashion, I love dressing cute, and I always try to look my best. Ironically, I absolutely hate shopping. It's too hard for me because there's so many things I want or that I feel like I need and it cost money which makes it difficult to choose . When I shop, this is what I'm thinking:
"Ooh this is cute ! ..nope
..cost too much"
..I have something like that"
..too plain"
..everybody wears it"
..I've got too much of this color"
..do I really need this?"
..will this go with most of my clothes?"

The pictures above are of my closets. I use two because I have so much stuff but then at the same time I feel like I'm missing something.

I have stacks and stacks of shoes and wear like three pairs regularly.
Right now I'm stressed, shopping online for shoes because I feel like I need more when really I probably don't.

So many clothes but every once in a while I dont have enough of something---jeans, shirts, jackets, sweaters, colors, prints. Then when I shop I'll buy what I've been complaining I don't have just to come back and feel like now I dont have enough of something else.

Purses are what bug me the most. I'm not much of a purse person because I'm more about my outfit. I have about only ten but I'll wear one specific purse for a couple of months, switching it up every once in a while. It irritates me when people say, " you need a new purse" , "how long have you had that purse?" ," when are you going to get another one?". Truth is, I already have purses and a few of them still have a tag on them. Then again when I want another purse, I'll buy a new one instead of wearing one I've already got.

At this point, I'm going to try and break this habit. I can't exactly throw things away because I do wear most of the stuff but very rarely. I just bought more clothes saturday and today I'm buying shoes. To make it easier on my self, I'm only buying items that I know won't just sit around which so far came down to one pair of shoes. During the next months I'll be forced to wear things that I already have.

Everyone has clothes, shoes, and accesories that they havn't worn. For people like me, sometimes all of the stuff becomes overwhelming, and it gets annoying when we shop. Do you feel like this sometimes? How do you go about it?
For my shopaholics, How do you shop? and what are your pet peeves about shopping, if any?

From Garbage to Glamorous

Many of you do not know that I want to become a fashion designer. Yesterday, I was watching Project Runway and the show stresses me out because these designers make fashionable clothing pieces out of weird fabrics in a short period of time. I thought to try and do my own task to get a little feel of how it might be, so I asked my sister for one and she told me to make her something out of trashbags. At first I wanted to make pants until I realized a dress would be a lot easier for my first time. Two trashbags was all I used and here is my finished product. :)

Effortlessly Cute

#3 Color Your White Tees

Plain shirts need accesories to complete a look. On the contrary, shirts full of art and color only need a pair of shorts or jeans. If it's cold, layer them with a cardigan. Add a little more but not too much with a skirt or wedges. A bold colored shirt will also look nice, but graphics will present a different appearance. A graphic tee yells "look at me". Notice that when a shirt has words or pictures on it, more people will actually take the time to look at it. As long as its stylish and appealing to the eye, a graphic tee is all you need.

DIY Scarf

I made a scarf out of hankerchiefs from my Grandfather. The colors and fabrics aren't too pleasing because there weren't many to choose from and these were the girliest prints/colors he had. I think its pretty good for the limited resources and I'm pleased with the outcome :)

Effortlessly Cute

#2 Replace Traditional Blue Jeans

A nice shirt and jeans are very easy to put together. Brighten it up a bit with a pair of fun colored bottoms ! Don't be afraid to stand out. If you are, however, try autumn colors and neutral prints. Thanks to colorblocking, your shirt doesn't necessarily have to be white. Its a perfect chance to wear two different, yet coordinating colors against eachother. Grab your favorite shirt, pull up your colored bottoms, and you're ready to go !
