Style: Burlesque Bra DIY.

Roughly two weeks ago, I found out about a contest that is going on at a local fabric store. Since it's Breast Cancer Awareness Month, our entire town has been going wild with raising funds for cancer research, and this contest happens to be my favorite way of doing so. The purpose is to embellish a bra, and turn it in at the store alongside a $5 fee. The bras will be put up around the store with a donation jar. The bra that attracts the most donations wins. The grand prize is a $1,000 sewing machine. Other prizes include giftcards for the store! Here is the bra I created! My inspiration were the roaring 20's. I am beyond obsessed with flappers! Overall, I think my design ended up being a cross between flapper and cabaret. Hopefully it's nice enough to win me at least a little prize :)

I'm not quite ready to bring out the light sweaters yet, though their time is quickly approaching. Today I wore my Zara maxi dress, and I was freezing the entire time! I'm probably sick by now, but who cares? I figured I'd wait until October 1st to bring out all my fall apparel, and just celebrate the end of September! You should do the same. Enjoy those bare arms, legs and backs for a bit longer!

I'm not sure what was going through my head when I decided to wear an all-pink outfit. Normally, I would've balanced the already too colorful ombre jeans with a black top and black shoes, but apparently the little daredevil in me decided to surface itself today. All in all, this was a good outfit to keep me awake. I was  trying very hard not to fall asleep in any of my classes, but one look at the vibrant color of those shorts is all I needed to get back on track! The one thing I did realize about them is that, sadly, they are not particularly flattering on people that don't have enough junk in their trunk. In the back, the change in color occurs exactly mid-butt, making us less bootylicious girls look even flatter. I don't personally care all that much, but just a heads up for those of you that do!
