Last Day of Summer

Hey there beautiful people! I spent this past week getting caught up in class and studying for my first tests this semester but I had something in mind for what I was going to post about. I've decided to mix it up and do ootd videos for my weekly posts, so tell me if you're liking this idea! I really enjoy filming bits of my day and what I'm doing/who I'm hanging out with so this might become a regular thing for my blog.
This outfit was dedicated to the Last Day of Summer which was September 22. It was actually a really pretty day until it started to rain(right when I decided to shoot exactly). I was dressed perfectly for the humid aftermath though. I found these khaki overalls at a local resale shop and almost died, you guys know I live in overalls/playsuits. Of course I kept it simple and opted for my comfy birks and a basic 3/4 sleeve shirt. You may have also noticed how big my hair has gotten, I don't even know what to do with it anymore but I'm thinking of coloring it back dark. Perfect for Fall, right? I'll talk to you guys real soon, kbye <3333

California Dreamin

Hey there guys! I have some exciting news, I'll be visiting LA next month(insert confetti emoji here). I've been thinking about what I'm going to wear because I've never been so I definitely have to come up with some new looks. I'll be there for four days so I wont have to do too much packing, but knowing me I'll bring a good portion of my closet and end up wearing really minimal pieces. This little vacay is keeping me motivated to stay caught up in school and work.These past weeks have been pretty lame e.g. I got my first speeding ticket, got rear ended(just scratched up my car a bit), and have just been feeling unmotivated lately. Aside from my little pity party things started looking up when I won this cute ring from Fresh Tangerine via Instagram which never happens to me, but the universe decided to give me a little break. I chose the Geode shape and it's perfect! It came in the cutest box/little jewelry bag. So a huge thank you to FT for making my week better! I also had enough time to hang out with my fave little blogger and we got lattes and some fun blog pictures. I'm showing her how to make ootd video's which I'm pretty new at too. I got a little bit of our day and outfits, I'll be posting more videos on my YouTube now that I have a camera that records in HD so if you guys wan't to see what goes on while I take pictures/a little part of my day I'll link my channel below! Hope everyone is having a good week so far and I'll talk to you guys soon. Bye <33

Questions from Samio

1) What would be your perfect day out?
Being able to have time to get dressed up(been missing that now that I have work/school basically every day) and go downtown with my friends or anywhere with cute outside shops and just explore. Even just walking around somewhere new is a nice time, I wouldn't necessarily have to shop.
3) What’s your favourite and worst thing about blogging?
Favorite thing would be all of the people I've met through my blog, I still think it's crazy that people read and have conversations with me on my blog. I'm very grateful for all of you guys!
Worst thing is having to edit my pictures which I rarely do just because it takes too much time. I've been super lazy about it and will just shoot in really good lighting.
4) If you could meet any blogger, who would it be and why?
I can't chose one! I'm really into Tasha Green, Beautycrush, and I Dress Myself right now. All three are UK based and are absolute babes.
5) What do notice first when you meet a person?
Their face which it sounds pretty obvious but I'll notice their features first.
2) Museum or Art gallery?
Art Galleries, I've only been to one in the city I live in but I enjoy it every time.
6) What is your all time favourite song?
Katy Perry- One Of the Boys. I listened to her through out high school and this song was my anthem.
7) Heels or flats?
Heels, specifically platforms! Or heeled ankle boots!
8) Do you prefer being at home or travelling?
I'm definitely a homebody in my everyday life but I love to travel even if its just to another city.
9) If you had 10 minutes to get out of your house and leave, never to return, what would you grab and why? (Not including people)
My pups! They're my little babies. If it was something materialistic I'd probably go for all my shoes.
10) What are you most grateful for in life?
My mother even though she drives me crazy. She's played the role as a mother and dad, which I know must of been hard and I can't thank her enough for doing so much for my siblings and I.
11) Where do you hope to take your blog in the future?
I think all bloggers eventually want to make it their full time job. I'd love to do this as my career, it'd be amazing not having to work in retail anymore and put my all into my blogging.

11 New Questions:

1) Are there any new projects/changes coming to your blog in the near future?
2) What blogger/bloggers inspired you to start your own blog?
3) Describe your personal style in 3 hashtags.

5)If you could be friends with any blogger who would it be and why?

I Want It All Black

Good morning! For this post I wanted to do something a little different from my normal ootd posts. I decided to take my camera with my to Austin and shoot a small bit of what Shelby and I did Friday when we arrived. After we got settled in at her apartment we headed out to do some thrifting/vintage shopping. The first stop was Frock On, this store has some beautiful pieces and Shelby ended up buying some good basics to add to her wardrobe. Also, I want to thank the ladies working for letting me film and play dress up!
We were so indecisive about what to wear and finally decided on shorts and crop tops. I've really been feeling the all black look and thought this was the perfect time to wear my Fuck You crop top from Feather Hearts(sold at Urban). I've had this shirt for two years and as much as I loved it there was still this hesitation about the reactions I'd get. I ended up getting a lot of smiles and even some compliments on how rad it was. I like a good teen angst shirt here and there so I'm glad I finally got around to wearing it. I hope you guys enjoy this little vlog and I can't wait to start making more.

Never Growing Up

Happy Thursday guys, we're already at the end of the week! I have one more work day left until I leave for Austin with Shelby so I'm stoked. We plan on spending the day thrifting and roaming around the town and you guys know how much I love Austin. It's nice to finally take a little break from working and have a weekend trip before I start school again. Summer breaks always go by so quickly and I end up thinking about the fun things I could've done but didn't have time to. Besides that I'm pretty happy about going back to school after taking a year off and finishing up my degree.
I wore the comfiest romper last week to meet Shelby for lunch and oh my, its perfect. It's two of my favorite things in one! Stripes + romper. I was going for a 90's baby look meaning this is something my mom would've dressed me in when I was younger. I've also been wearing my hair up since its like 200 degrees in Texas and I kinda like the little puff look. Until next time, byeee <3

Lets Talk About Hair

You all don't know how hard it was for me to keep this a secret but, I finally made a hair routine video! After saving up enough money I was able to buy a new slr camera that happens to record in HD so now I can make ootd videos and whatever my little heart desires. Of course I knew what my first video topic was going to be, I've been getting questions about my hair since I went natural three years ago. Whether it be in person or on my blog/Instagram. I try to explain and answer all the questions I get but I knew it'd be a lot easier to just show everyone how I get my hair the way it is. I'm hoping this answers all those questions and I can't wait to make more videos! Until next time, byeee <3 

You Said I Was The Most Exotic Flower

I'm starting off August with a fresh post and good vibes all around. I only had one day off this week from work which means only one day to dress the way I want so I may have gotten a little excited when I was getting dressed to go eat Thai with my friend. I've been dying to wear this playsuit I got from Missguided but was saving it for a more dressy occasion. I'm starting to realize how much I do that and end up never wearing most of my clothes so starting now I'm going to dress according to how I feel regardless if it's a fancier occasion or not.
The sizing for Missguided is a little tricky(it took me two orders to get it right) the playsuit I'm wearing is a UK 10 and if fits perfectly. I'm in love with the thick lace trim and the fact that it actually covers my butt. I did up wearing a light sweater just because I knew I'd be going in stores and a restaurant but it didn't cover up the beautiful details. Hope you guys are enjoying the rest of summer and until next time, byeee <333
