Come On Eileen

Hello beautiful people! I've been MIA for sometime now and for good reasons. I recently got offered a new job and started the day after so I'm still trying to balance my life + working two jobs. This is actually my last week at my other job so I'm breathing a little easier now and am finding time to get back into my routine of actually putting looks together. As you can tell this outfit is super comfy and I went for a no make up/I'm too tired to try vibe. My best friend Shelby(uncommonbeing as you guys know) is moving to another city so this was the last day I got to see her/take pictures of her for her blog. Major crying eyes emoji inserted here. It's been an overwhelming couple of weeks so I'm glad to finally get back into my routine and start pushing myself to do more with my blog. Can't wait to show you some pretty things next week! Bye <3333

Bralette/Overalls- Urban Outfitters

It's Not that Uncommon

Two post in one week? I hope everyone is as excited and proud as I am! This is Shelby from uncommonbeing, most of you guys have already heard me talk about her and her blog. For those who don't know this is my friend/thrifting partner. I take pictures for her blog and drag her to events I'm too shy to go to by myself. These are some that I took from our latest thrifting trip, I loved this outfit(you guys know stripes + overalls are my holy grail). The one thing I love about her is that she really doesn't care about peoples opinions on how she dresses. She's gotten me out of my comfort zone maybe not to the point of wearing a cute lacey bralette as a shirt but I'm getting there! If you love the bohemian vibe she's definitely your girl, and she has the biggest jewelry collection I've ever seen. If you guys like seeing how my friends dress I'll do more posts and interview them about their style. Maybe I'll even make it a little segment with fun questions, we'll see! Also, before I get too carried away I made a bloglovin account. I got a few emails from you guys saying that you added me on it so I checked it out and now all my posts will be linked there to make it easier to stay in touch and see what I'm up to. You can even download the app(which I'm already obsessed with).
Until next time, byeee <3

So, some of you may already know...I colored my hair! I finally got rid of the reddish brown I had in my hair from July. This is my third time dying my hair so I guess the third time is really the charm. I mentioned that I would start including post about my hair since most of my readers are naturals and want to hear more about it. I got this color done on Monday, it took about four hours to get this end result. I have a lot of hair and on top of that it's super thick so my stylist did the coloring in a three step process; she first lifted my color that had grown out, then lifted my roots, and then finally put the toner with the color that I wanted. I got the coloring done at Aveda Salon which is known for their color specialists so I wasn't worried at all. This is the second time that I've gotten it done professionally, the first time was in June but the stylist underestimated the level needed to lift my natural black hair color so there was no difference. The second time my friends used boxed Shea Moisture hair dye in the color light blonde to give me the reddish brown color I had up until now. This time I wanted to go a lot lighter and I used pictures of Rihanna and Beyonce for the shade of golden brown that I was going for and I love the color I got. I did ask to have my roots darker so it wouldn't look too unnatural and once my roots do grow out it will have an ombre effect so I don't have to get it touched up too often. Bye deerlings <3

It's raining, It's pouring

Pinafore Dress-ASOS/Gold chain-Chinatown/Wedges-UO

I ordered this adorable pinafore online from ASOS (here) in the sale section and on top that had an extra 20% off promo code so I couldn't wait to get it in the mail and style it. I've seen similar ones at XXI and Urban Outfitters but I wanted one with a thicker material so that I could layer it for winter. This one is perfect and a great length. I have difficulties find dresses that are long enough for me which is crazy because I'm only 5'7 but I swear every time I order a dress online it ends up looking like a tunic on me and I have to throw tights on just to feel comfortable wearing it out. I love that this one has a real pocket in the front and that the straps are adjustable so it fits like a glove. Btw, it's been raining for the past two days and I decided to wear my favorite suede wedges to walk around downtown and got them soaked. A lesson to everyone spray protector on your suede shoes so you don't ruin them like I did mine! 
Thanks for reading, bye deerlings <3 

Bring On The Stripes

Bring On The Stripes by deerandthewolf featuring bib overalls

Anyone who knows me knows that I live in overalls, seriously. I wear my thrifted kid ones at least once a week. I've been seeing them paired with high heels for a high fashion look and love it. I would dress mine up if I had anywhere nice to go but for now I just through a crop top under them and tie a flannel around my waist, and bam I'm ready for the day! I just purchased a floral print overall dress from Forever 21 and am thinking of posting it soon so keep an eye out for how I style it. 

Bye babes <3
