After Christmas Sales

So now that Christmas is officially over things are settling back in to "normal" I mean the New Years is still right around the corner which I am looking extremely forward too! But other than that everything seems to have slowed down quite a bit. Anyway I got a few gifts this year, a gift card to Old Navy which I was more than happy about, it's one of my favorite places to shop. I bought a few tops and a cute pencil skirt there today, as well as a pair of blue tights that I love. Anyway here are a few of the items that I got for Christmas this year :)) Enjoy:

 This is the turquoise pencil skirt that I got at my trip to Old Navy, along with the "lazy" white top.

The blue tights I also grabbed there, and was trying to see what I could wear them with that I already had in my closet.















Well have A HAPPY NEW YEARS !! :)) i'll be back soon with more to share.

Not A creature was stirring, not even A mouse.

 I feel like I have been all over the map lately, my moods go from the "happiest go lucky son of a bitch" to "damn my life sucks" within days, I mean it's mostly because of my personal body issues I guess you could say, It's like when I'm out and about with friends I don't think about my LB's half as much as when I'm at home or walking somewhere by myself. I woke up today feeling like 80 pounds had dropped on me, when really the scale reads a few pounds less than the last time I checked it. WTF is that? and why does my mind play such crafty tricks on me? I'm physically and mentally just tired of over thinking my physical form. Especially since lately all I've been doing is being good to it, I've been eating much healthier, exercising daily and drinking plenty of water yet.... no satisfaction found. Well I mean I have these moments where I feel super excited about losing weight, but then I realize that I'm just never going to be that perfect thin girl with a perfect ass. I'm just not, I am me and I have plenty of flaws on my list and what really needs to happen is for me to simply accept myself. There's some cliche material for you, lol.

Oh yeah, HAPPY CHRISTMAS KITTENS!

Past 1:00 am

I'm awake still, about ready to pass out at this point though, but before I do I decided to post some outfits that I took pictures of earlier today :) thought I'd share my finds at goodwill with you all.

 I'm sure if you didn't notice the outfit kept evolving over a short period of time, I was adding on pieces as I continued to take the shots.

 My favorite two items would be my lovely denim vest and my brand new (well second hand) BOOTS!! as I'm sure you noticed by the numerous times they appear.

 Anyways I'm about ready to crash, so I bid you ALL adieu, nighteee night kittens!














P.S. I hope you all enjoyed seeing a little more of my closet.

How's that working out for you? being clever?

I had quite the day, It was extremely long and tiring but nonetheless I am so happy to check it off the calendar. I actually got a new job today!! and also made some extra cash. But what really wore me out was the exercise, I ran a mile n a half and then walked 5 more! but it feels good to be healthy, my diet has changed so much in this last month. I'm eating healthy snacks and keeping up with protein and also daily exercise. I already lost 7 pounds in the past couple of weeks :)) anywhooo I thought I would take a picture of myself today so here yah go.

This entire outfit is thrifted,I seem to only find myself in second hand stores these days. I'm cheap and I don't mind one bit ;)

The morning ritual

 I woke up today and made a pot of coffee, drank 2 1/2 cups, slowly got myself up and moving. Cooked some breakfast and started reading the book I began over 2 days ago, then finally went upstairs, shaved my legs and decided to try to put together a cute outfit. Then decided, PICTURE TIME! haha.  Well that's the gist of it anyway, my tongue is obnoxiously out and my hair not so clean but I still felt cute.
-Turquoise Dress  & White Belt thrifted
-Leopard print tights (Ross's)
-Brown heeled sandals (Target)

This little numbba is one of my top 5 favorite jackets in my closet, if you can really even call it that. I just love the burnt orange and way it seems tailored to fit my body ever so perfectly. If you're me than you know how much of a challenge that can actually be :)
-jacket && blue striped scarf (thrifted)
-Black leggins (old navy)
-Brown cowboy boots (Ross's)

Fresh Paint

 The thigh-high boots always make me feel like some sort of vixen, I mean can you blame me? haha, seriously there's a huge sex appeal with those heels. Also not to mention, nearly impossible to not fall flat on my face, but as we all know pain is gain ;) The floral top & boots I thrifted during the summer and the mini school-girl skirt I've had for years, can't quite place my finger on where I bought it.

I absolutely love this outfit! it's super casual and comfortable while in my opinion still fashionable. I wore this running errands this past weekend and felt wonderfully confident in it.
-blue undershirt (Walmart)
-striped oversized cardigan (Old Navy)
-black jeans (thrifted)
-audio shoes (Ross's)

This week has been stressful, and I've been finding myself slacking on motivation, so today I wrote down an entire list of goals to accomplish before the day's through. already checked off a few things, like laundry, painting my nails, going to the local library and reading. Still have a few more things to get done but it's only 2pm, so I have time. Anywhoo, I'll check back in latta!

Till then have a wonderful day <3333

I've gone Pattern Happy

Hay there! I haven't made any outfit posts yet and so made a choice to try it out :) so here it is: This first photo I decided to try the all loving trend of mixing and matching floral with stripes and I think it turned out fantastic! My best friend actually is lending me the top right now, we usually swap our clothes, bags and shoes with each other, It's a fun way to keep our closets fresh. The tights I got a while back, I believe at Target, they we're fairly inexpensive too and the striped dress A friend actually gave to me in the spring.

 

I tend to mix patterns hecticly together, sometimes it works and sometimes it doesn't, but that's have the fun in my opinion :) 

Changing Stripes

 

I'm hoping to find a really great zebra print sweater one of these days, like maybe i'll just stumble upon something great! well I can always wish right?

These boots were made for walkin...

It's fall! the most beautiful time of year in my opinion, and the greatest time for fashion. layered clothing, closet full of scarves, and yes a smashing pair of boots to go with any outfit! I am dying to get a pair of these, looking all over ebay and every department store I run into, just have to find a good bargain.
