FEELIN THRIFTY

Decided to do a little back 2 school thrifting and found a couple of gems..


FAVORITE! Deep purple and pink paisley floral one piece, cut off into romper.


White with large pale floral print. Did a wonky job cutting it off, making the bottom sit uneven. Perhaps I should be more careful when I cut length off. Looks very 1950's housewife or something and makes me feel like I should be baking cupcakes.



With all the 90's trends popping back up, I figured I'd get a head start (ok, this might be pushing the limits, but FUCK IT). It was 70% off of the already low price and I couldn't pass up the deliciously tacky bedazzled glory this denim romper offers.


Light pink dress. I wanna wear my cowboy boots with this but they kind of cause a scene. Last time I wore them, someone at UNF shouted "YEEHAW" at me.


Mmm, pastel striped blouse. Oh, how I love thee, pastels.


ALL FOR UNDER 10 BUX, YAAAAAAAAAY.

YESTERDAY


(i kinda feel like a tool for posting this, but whatever.)
What I wore to play house wife, cleaning and cooking and whatnot all day. Even though its relatively simple, I am rather fond of the getup, which is why its getting posted.

shirt: thrifted
skirt: target, $10
shoes: thrifted
glasses: zennioptical.com, ~$20 with shipping.


I attempted to clean up the books I salvaged from the garage behind out house. They are college textbooks from the 1960's I think. The one in the middle with the mandala is a psychology book, and my favorite. However, it was in by far the worst shape. Unfortunately, I had to cut off and dispose of the front cover, which is almost identical to the back cover (which is shown) because it was just peeling and falling apart everywhere.


MADE DELICIOUS FOODS.
- Jasmine rice
- Sauteed squash, zucchini, mushrooms, and tempeh in soy sauce with ginger and garlic powder, and i think a touch of cumin
- Sprouts, which I really only included because you get so many in a package, and i never use them all. They were a surprisingly nice touch.
- AND THE BEST PART:

House of Tsang Bangkok Peanut Sauce.
SOOOO GOOOD. It kind of has a bite to it, which is awesome. Buy this, smother your life in it, and thank me.



Also, I have become rather addicted to both searching tumblrs and using StumbleUpon.
Here are some pretty pictures, ya'll:

NAIL ART & YOUNG OBAMA FAPPING MATERIAL.

For some reason, I am DYING to get some ridiculous nail art. My job wouldn't even let me have painted nails, which was obviously a bummer, but since my short stint at making burritos is over, and it is summertime, I might splurge and get some rhinestones and whathaveyou glued onto my fingertips soon.
Last spring when I visited Shellie in Los Angeles, we splurged and got matching fake leopard print nails. If I remember correctly, they were around $80, but man, they were worth it. They looked awesome and stayed flawless for over 2 weeks. I think ideally, I would have something ridiculous, like American flag nails, or nails with pandas and kitten faces on them. Maybe something involving neon colors, polka dots, or glue on bows. Drool and/or giggle at the following prime examples of nail art.

KAWAII NAILS? OF COURSE.

I would totally rock these right now. A little out there, subtle enough
yet totally eye popping. Yeah, dawg.

The best detail is definitely the gold chains.

Entitled Strawberry Fields Forever. Perfect way to show Beatles appreciation, no?

Oh you know. Just throwing mass amounts of glitter and color together to make some magic. Also, check these rainbow animal print hello kitty nails she did. WOWWEEE.


ALSO, HELLOOOOOOOO MISTER PRESIDENT:

OH, CLARA BOW.







Clara Bow is PRECIOUS. But not in the completely innocent way, there is something very mysterious and seductive about her as well. Like you wanna stroll through the park holding hands, picking daisies, and eating icecream cones with sprinkles together, and then take her back to your place, drink some wine, listen to old soul records, and try to make a smooth move by placing your hand on her leg or something. But nothing too sexual and forward because SHE IS A LADY.

Now, how can you channel some Clara Bow into your everyday getups to add insta class and sass? May I suggest...


bow head band, 7.99 @ target
I WANTED THIS SO BAD WHEN I SAW IT IN THE STORE. I feel like it is a really cute but not over the top accessory to snazz up a simple dress. I feel like I would wear this with a black dress, knee high black socks, and some flats. But that's just me.


Covergirl Outlast lipstain, 7.99 @ walgreens
When I first saw a commercial for this, I was so excited. I really love the idea of wearing lip color, but let's face it, I'm wayyy to messy and ridiculous for lipstick. Whenever I wear it, I usually end up smearing it or getting it on my teeth or something equally as awful. This stuff is the perfect solution! I own it in 'flirty nude', but trust me, it's not nude. It's a nice solid red that is not too bright or fire engine colored. It goes on a little dry, but put on a little lip balm or gloss and you're set. I am really happy with this product.


High Seas skirt, 52.99 @ modcloth
Clara's style is hard to pin point, because it seems as if it's either one way or the other: simplistic with basics or over the top with a lot going on and tons of flair. Some of the pictures I saw of her while browsing Flickr were rather nautical, and I figured this skirt had both the bow and pleats that seemed to be a common theme, so it works. Really, I think most skirts that are vintage looking with high waists, pleats, and/or bows could be easy to pair with above things in helping to form a cute outfit.

I love the colors in the pattern at the bottom of this dress! I'm digging the kinda bohemian/retro style they are trying to channel. The belt is detatchable, which is great because I'm not sure how I feel about it. I do think it should be belted, but the belt they chose to include is not the right fit, in my opinion.

    I LOVE THESE. I will probably eventually actually purchase them because I cannot get over how cute they are. When will I outgrow adoring stupid ~*kawaii*~ inanimate object smiling characters? NEVER.
  • Fred Flare, $10



    I don't think these would usually be my style, but I can't stop daydreamin' about them. They are pretty cute... They come in black as well, but I prefer the pink.
