The Details

The Story

Today's vibe is ready-to-sleep complete with under eye bags and 5 layers of blanket because it's too freaking cold. Therefore, in an effort to save myself and actually get a decent amount of sleep, there will be no story associated with this blog post. Let's have the multitude of pictures that I couldn't narrow down do all the talking. After all, this look is just too cool for words.

Thank you so much for stopping by!

Outfit: Polka Dot Dress + Thin Sweater.

Photos by my self timer earrings: Forever21 dress: Wet Seal ring: purchased in Puerto Penasco sweater: LA Hearts (via Pacsun) backpack: Black Poppy (via Pacsun) shoes: Chinese Laundry (via DSW) Posting these pictures is breaking my heart right now. I was doing so well with the nice, fancy background photos! Alas, with school taking over, it's difficult to find someone willing and able to spare a few moments in the name of fashion personal style photography.

This is my first time taking the tripod/self timer combination out for a spin, so bear with me. I was a bit iffy about posting today due to the photography quality (focusing the damn thing and finding an empty-ish background in my room have proven to be quite challenging). However, this is one of my favorite outfits I've worn all semester, so I deemed it worthy of your consideration.

Hope everyone agrees and isn't too offended by my lack of camera-focusing skills!

Hello, everyone!

I'm finally back today with a new outfit post! It's been so hard trying to keep up with the blog, for multiple reasons. First of all, school's getting pretty crazy- everyone and their mother decided the next two weeks are perfectly appropriate to throw exams and projects our way, so I'm all over the place trying to study for everything. I'm always taking the maximum credit hours, too, and I work. It's sort of overwhelming at the moment.

Finding someone to take pictures has also been pretty difficult. I feel awkward asking my friends whenever we hang out because it feels like I'd be taking away from that time- also I don't want everyone thinking that's the only reason I want to hang out.

However, I've been working on some non-personal outfit content that hopefully proves to be useful to everybody, so I'll still be updating the blog regularly (maybe just not as idealistically regularly as I had originally planned). 

Thank you for stopping by, even sporadically! I appreciate each and every one of you! 

P.S. This outfit made me feel pretty badass. One of my favorites in a long time.

Outfit: Fringed Cardi + Skinny Jeggings.

slouchy beret: Wet Seal

earrings: Eve's

scarf: grandmother's

fringed cardi: random vendor at CSUN

spaghetti strap: thrifted

bag: mother's

jeans: Ross Dress for Less

boots: Jasmine at Ross Dress for Less

Throughout the years, I feel like I've always purchased safe statement pieces. I'm not exactly sure how to put that in words. I guess you could say I've purchased stuff that my mom would approve of and not find to be an unreasonable purchase. With this particular cardigan, I can almost imagine her nagging.

"That thing will get caught in everything!" (it does)

"You can probably use that for like two normal outfits!" (challenge accepted)

"The washing machine will kill it." (I love it so much that it'll get special hand wash treatment)

Even so, I've decided that I'm going to love this piece forever and ever and try my best to incorporate it into as many outfits as possible. Every now and then, my school has an outdoor market of sorts, where vendors set up tents on campus. I purchased this beauty for $10 from one of my favorite tents, which contained pretty unique, cheap apparel. I've noticed similar prints around lately, but the fringes were something new, which attracted me to the product. 

I absolutely love its thin composition, yet cozy feel. I'm not a huge fan of bulky clothing, which is part of the reason I strongly dislike wintertime, but the more thin, yet wearable during cold weather clothing I find, the more I warm up to months like November. 

I can't believe we're a week away from the start of December, and a bit over a month away from the New Year! I also can't believe that in about 3 weeks, I will be done with my first semester as a college sophomore, and, most importantly, I will return home to all my beloved clothing items that didn't make the cut to California. That's probably the only positive to going back home, but I'll take it :)

Thank you so much for stopping by and reading my random rambles!

I truly appreciate it! :)
