I think I Should Own Walmart








Yet another unsuccessful trip to Walmart. I bought a shirt, vest, and earrings. Though, I must admit, they are all super cute. I got this thermal shirt that would be great tucked in a skirt, or a vest on top. The cotton vest is one of my many fashion needs, however it was a 'splurge' at Walmart for a total of $18. 
A few posts back, (or maybe last post, I have such bad memory) I talked about how my mother gets bags of clothes. My mom also acquired a huge bin of Lego and my brothers went crazy. So I thought I might as well get my hands dirty. Inspiration: Prom :) This stylish Lego lady is a little thing of what i want for grad, and I can't wait!!

Fyi, those are my old English sheep dogs in the last picture. Cookie (the closest one) tried to photobomb me while Oreo chilaxed. :)

Royal Wedding Delay






Well, we were suppose to try a new church out, but we got lost. So this is my 'Sunday Best'. I was trying my new tripod out in my room. I have the smallest ugliest room in the house buttt... I got  a walk in closet. :) This dress I got at Giant Tiger, I usually don't trust them for their stuff shrinks, but I fell in love. My floral shoes, cream Walmart cardigan i snagged for $3, and my beloved birdcage necklace. I also got around to painting my nails this purple colour (my camera sucks, sorry for the quality) which I assumed was brown til I actually looked at it.
So my Nana is down, and she brought a few Royal Wedding magazines and as I was glancing through, I saw this jacket, and humbly remember reading somewhere that the beige Burberry trench coat within hours. Read full article here. I thought it was amazing, yet I was not surprised for if I had the money, I'd be wearing mine right now.

Walmart Obsessed.






Walmart is my worst enemy. They must have stolen at least a few hundred from me. Today alone I bought 2 jackets, a shirt, and 2 nail polishes. The last time i was at Walmart i bought 8 pairs of shoes. At least my mom offered to pay back the one jacket later this season. And did you see my skirt? Walmart too. Its actually a shirt! Here is how.No sewing, and this video is perfect for the everyday gal to the extreme fashionista. 

So for my shopping spree, I got this cute smurf shirt. Its cut is adorable, its colour is perfect for fall, and.. its a self esteem booster for it says im a perfect 10 ;).  I also got a leather jacket that i have been DIEING for. Lastly, i got a winter jacket perfectly on trend for 30 bucks. See? Walmart isnt too bad..

Yellow Bandeau and some Newspapers












Okay, let me explain the title first. Then the pictures. My mother is a super thrifter; to a point that she has friends that drop clothes off by the garbage bag full for us. And you thought your mom was crazy. I found this cute yellow bandeau in one of the bags but it served a problem in my mind. I don't wear yellow. It's bright, intense, and hard to match anything with. This theory goes along with the colours red, orange, and silver. So you can imagine my fear and excitement when I got the courage to pull the only yellow garment out of my closet and be able to make an outfit out of it. The side pony is new too fyi, but that doesn't mean its going to stay.
I also, got to do a newspaper route. Not just any newspaper route, but in a rich elderly area.. Reason for the fountain picture and chair area that happened to be infront of the elevator. The book is part of my online english. I can now say i read Hamlet. In less than 3 days. English is my path in life. Math on the other hand...

I Quit 30 for 30 -_-

bandeau, cotton shirt, red belt and new fav  dark skinnys

My Nana's necklace she gave to me

see?? the red DOES go with the shirt :)

crazy face with my hair in pony

horrible shot of trying to show you

official newspaper bag

with the official papers


So, last time i did the 30 for 30 challenge, i got 5-6 days going. This time I went a total of 9-10 times. So I made a T chart to see how long it would take to actually GET the 30 outfits done with my timely process. Ends up roughly 6 seasons. Year and a half. On a better note, I will be my next door neighbor's new cover for his newspaper route. (as you can see above with my bag and lovely information papers) I also ordered in my seventeen Magazine new book, and it hasn't come in.. :( well, i have found my camera, (reason as to why i have not been posting.. and im just lazy..) ends up it was safely in my purse the whole time :)
