And Then My Shoes Didn’t Fit…

sequin jacket: Modcloth, top: thrifted, jeans: Target, belt: WalMart, shoes: F21

I had different shoes picked out for this outfit but when I went to put them on this morning they wouldn’t go on. They are by far the weirdest fit I’ve bought from Old Navy. They’re my size but tight, like my feet are swollen are something. The humidity has to be just right and the stars must be aligned for them to get on my feet! I even tried enlisting Jason to tug them on this morning but ending up kicking them off in a rage of frustration and grabbed these instead. Probably for the best.

But seriously. Old Navy’s sizing is so weird! I bought a jacket in a medium that actually fit like a large. Then I got the same jacket in the same size only a different color and it doesn’t fit. Get it together ON!

Stripped and Strapped

Jason rediscovered his GameCube that we keep in the game room along with all the other ridiculous gaming systems. Meanwhile, I discovered this recipe for browned butter chocolate chip cookies. Made them for the super bowl party we had at my bro/sis-in-law’s (that I spent studying for a giant music history test that I only chose to start studying for 2 days before) and then when those ran out I made a double batch last night. However, I ran out of brown sugar and didn’t have molasses–the first substitute I found–so I had to use corn syrup and honey. A substitute for a substitute. SUBSTITUTECEPTION.

Au Natural

shirt: goodwill, denim: Target, sneakers: Converse

I just washed my hair for the first time since last Thursday. And I just tried to capitalize last. So take that all you people that wash your hair every day. It’s called water conservation. Or being green. Much like the pants I’m wearing. And if you can find a dirt/gravel backdrop for any and all of your pictures you’ll be accepted easier. FYI…

Saturday Stylings

cardigan: thrifted, tshirt: Target, pants: Target, boots: thrifted, scarf: Old Navy

I was trying desperately to balance here. I have awful balance. Obviously.

Yesterday I only had one class at 11 because my 10 class got cancelled. Yay for an extra hour of sleep but boo for still having to drive 2 hours for one class!

I’m glad I’ve started taking more outfit photos. I like/dislike seeing what I actually looked like in that outfit. And as always I’ve come to the conclusion that I need to take a hatchet to my hair and chop it the heck off.

hair tutorial from here. Though I don’t think it turned out as well. Stupid grown out bangs.

Gray Matter


blouse: anthropologie, tank: pacsun, jeans: target, oxfords: f21, bracelets: f21

That Anthropologie shirt has got to be THE most awkward fit of a shirt I own. I mean, what’s going on up at the top? So weird. But it was on super sale and I didn’t try it on before I bought it. All that Anthropologie hype probably had something to do with it too.

Happy It’s Monday.

Just In Time

I get home from school on Tuesdays and Thursdays about 5. In winter, this is the beginning of the always beautiful Golden Hour. I just happened to walk outside and snap that beautiful sun behind me and capture the coveted flare. 🙂

It’s Friday!
