Obsessed

I feel like I've been obsessed with purple lately, could be me- but I AM!!!
I felt very equestrian club like today. Don't get me wrong, I actually felt really good in this all day, in fact, this woman was looking at me as if to say, "OMG, doesn't she know you don't pair black and brown?"
On the inside, I was saying, "Eat it up lady!!!Yeah, I make the rules here!"
On the inside...
Look at my freaking dog..he is too cute- little model in training!!

Blech!!

This was one of those outfits that you walk around thinking- alright I'm looking pretty delicious today!!!
And then, you come home, take your blog picture, and go : What the eff was I thinking?!!??
Yeah, I left the house feeling super fly, but when I saw these pics, I thought- great I look ridiculously dumpy- I mean this did nothing to flatter my figure...in fact, it emphasized all the bad parts of my figure!
Where do I start? Oh, yes, I know where... my BUST, okay I know a lot of people pay to have a larger bustline- but I am willing to pay to have a smaller one!!! I think that everyday I wake up I have gotten bigger up there- seriously!! I gets to the point that I feel crowded by my boobs!!
On top of that these jeans- which I thought were a score at $2, thrifted, did absolutely nothing for my thighs!!! My thighs are not that huge- look back, there's prior evidence!! I don't know, these may go into a destroy and upcycle pile, we'll see.
What's that you say? Is she done yet?
Well, yes, yes I am...
I apologize for the rant, but I hate these days!!
My Wretched Outfit:
Fushia houndstooth cami- gifted, Express

Let me tell you how much I LOVE this headband, $6 is a little steep for me and headwear- but I LOVE it!!

What a mess!

Yep, that's the way my life's been, a mess!! I've been so incredibly busy with school, I had to prepare my proposal for my thesis and then present that to my advisors...so been insane! In addition to all of this I am currently battling a mystery illness, I keep getting overheated, feeling faint, and experience migraine strength headaches with the light and noise sensivity and all... I know I don't know what's going on, so I plan on seeing the Doc to see what it is I'm agonizing over. Ah, don't worry I'll live :) At any rate, this is actually what I wore on Thursday. I do plan on posting regularly again on Sunday!

Cream cardigan- $2, thrifted

All Gray

No I'm not wearing all gray, instead to my horror I found not even a gray hair but a white hair!!! I'm only 25, how can this be??? Alright, I think I'm over that now...just had to get that off my chest!! Other than the white horror, my day's been pretty crazy!! I'm planning my brother and sister-in-law's baby shower, trying to get my wedding plans in order, and running presumptive blood tests at school!! Don't get me wrong, I wouldn't know what to do with myself if I weren't running 90 to nothing!! At any rate, I'm feeling kind of springy. It was finally warm enough to at least roll up my sleeves, yippee!! Alright, I'll get on to the goods....


My Outfit:
Blue cardigan- $4, thrifted (merona)
Black crochet tank- $4, Old Navy
Striped button down- $3, thrifted (express)j
Jeans- $20, Express
Black suede heels- $4, thrifted
Earrings- $1, Shirley's
Black Trench- $30, Kenneth Cole via Ross
Total Cost- $66 (including outerwear)
This is my favorite purchase ever!!! I had been wanting a black trench coat for so long and I found this one this summer at Ross, tried it on and it was like it was made just for me!!

This is the sister to the black suede wedge heels I had posted with my wonderful skirt on Thursday's post. I really like them, first time wearing them so a little uncomfortable, but I think they're going to fit in nicely with the rest of my closet!!
