Aware, Rust and Repair

I am finally posting a new look. It's about time isn't it? I just finished all my papers and tests, and I thought to myself, "It's about time to update my empty blog". I never knew taking pictures on the stairs would turn out so nice. Haha. Here is my outfit.

Busy Busy Busy

This blogging thing is so hard. How do people keep up with it. ):
I've been busy trying to settle down in my university as well as balancing everything. I can't manage my time well at all. It sucks! I wish I could post more outfits on lookbook, but that would mean awkward pictures in my dorm. I'll try to get an outfit post soon when I'm not too busy, but somehow I always end up being busy. Anyhow, I've gone on some thrifting adventures near my university and I am so glad for the deserted Salvation Army I found. They have super cute sweaters for cheap and I just want to buy everything.
Another place I've checked out is Plato's closet. I spent a long time in that store trying to rummage through everything so I don't miss anything good. That was when I found this beauty.

Buffalo Exchange

I actually only started thrifting last year. I became interested in it when I saw on lookbook that people "thrift" and I wondered what that was. I thought it was a store. Well, technically it is a store but I thought it was like a forever 21 where you can enter and buy clothes. When I told my friend I wanted to try and go thrifting, coincidentally, she was also interested. Her mom thrifts and finds good deals so the first place I ever went to was Goodwill. 

Buffalo Exchange was the second store she brought me to for thrifting. They have two locations but the one I usually go to is located on Driggs Avenue in Williamsburg. I went today with four of my friends cause they wanted to try thrifting too but I guess thrifting isn't really for them. Only one of them really found stuff. I grabbed a few things but because I'm poor I tried to limit myself. I bought a skirt, high waisted shorts and this really really nice bag that I am feigning over. I've been trying to look for something like this and I HAD to get it. My total ended up being $44.50. Let me just say that Buffalo Exchange isn't really a good place to find cheap finds. It's a bit pricey actually. But, occasionally you'll see some (barely) cheaper items that are worth it. So, here's how my bag looks!

To Struggle With Light Colors

I'm not very good with this blogging thing. How do people post so often?
Well, lately I've been busy with prom and college and other stuff. And, I never got to post up my favorite sweater on lookbook! I shall do it next week. Speaking of next week, I'll be turning 18! I'll also be graduating on the 25th! Excuse my continuous exclamation marks. I'm excited and a little sad to be leaving high school. This means I am officially turning old. It kind of sucks. ): Anyways, enough about my life.
Last month (I think), I won a giveaway for Romwe hosted by Jennifer from Art In Our Blood. I got super lucky and I have been meaning to to post about it but..let's not get into that. I finally posted a look of me wearing that dress on lookbook and here it is.

Inactive

I have been inactive for awhile. I can't post looks because lately I've been a bit busy studying and my parents took my camera to work but never brought it back home so I couldn't post any new looks. ): I'll definitely post a new look next week. That will be my goal for next week. I have so many outfits I want to take pictures of. Man. I was window shopping with my mom a few weeks ago and I was looking at creepers and Dr. martens (I've always been into the punk kid look). I am really digging these velvet Dr. martens.

Aren't they just gorgeous? My feet can't really take the stiff leather of the regular Dr. martens so these will have to do. They're like converses but cuter I guess. Haha. But before I get these beauties I need a job. Desperately. In the summer I won't even be able to make much money. How saddening. Anyways, I just wanted to post a little something up so my blog doesn't look dead. I hope this does the trick.
It's time for me to hit the hay. Good night!

Rainy Sundays

I don't really like the new blogspot but I'll live with it. It was a bit confusing. I woke up feeling groggy this morning. I looked outside and it was raining. I hate the rain. I hate the rain even more when it happens to be on a Sunday. Sundays are supposed to be sunny, hence the 'sun' in Sunday. Now, I'm just stuck at home.

I guess I'll be wearing knit sweaters over a collared shirt this whole week because I'm lazy and it's so easy to do. The weather in New York City is going to be rainy and depressing for the next few days. Rain ruins everything for me ): I'll probably be too lazy to wear skirts or dresses. But, I've always really liked the androgynous look. And, as you can tell from my first outfit, I really love collars! They just make an outfit look more put together. :)

Spring is here!

I have been too lazy to take pictures of my outfits. It's such a hassle with my dslr. And you guys have no idea how horrendous my apartment looks. There's absolutely no area where I can take a full body picture of my outfits. I finally found a good place today. Believe it or not, this is my kitchen!

Anyways, I wore this to school today. I love peter pan collars. They're so great for layering and etc. Hope you guys like my first look!
