Livin in sweatpants

I guess i dont feel like blogging. After hot/sweaty tennis im to dead to do anything. Actually the last thing i feel like doing is getting dressed nicely to go out. busylife

Comment

Ive entered the teen vogue snapshot contest! Comment on my page here, here and here.
I hope to see a few bloggers on the top 20. There are a ton of entries so i really dont have any expectations. It is a fun contest though

This is awfully girly... I know

My 4 year old sister took this photo above

I love the corset top to this dress

Yes! There is an outdoors! My first non white wall post. And it was a lot more work. I dont have a tripod or anything so i had to find rocks to prop my camera against. I will probably be going back to my wall.

-I was feelin this girly dress today. I bought it a long while ago and it was a bit pricey so I figure I ought to get more use out of it then one wear.

-Can you believe this is from the same blogger as the all black dressed blogger below? I guess i don't really have a defined style. Blogging has really helped me define my style more then i knew before. Being that I'm 5'1 i think i try to look tougher in my all black clothes to contrast with all the cutesy "your so adorable" comments i get from people that i know, which happen to really bother me. My grandmother always tells me that i don't look 17.

" You dont look anywhere near 17. More like 14" Grama
" ok grama thats not something i want to be told" me
"oh you'll appreciate it when your older. " grama
" Ok so your 59 but you look much older, more like 80... but grandma im sure you appreciated it when you were younger. How do you like that? " me
.......I am rude i know.

woof woof

- I have been looking for a tee like this for a while. Found it at goodwill with stephen who kindly bought it for me along with the rogan for target shorts below and a few other nice things.
-School Tennis starts on monday.... Ughhh. I dont like sports very much. I wish i didnt have to play them. They really dont seem to matter in life once you get out of highschool. I do not enjoy sweating my butt off in practice while getting yelled at by the coach. Its like this isnt fun?!? Why am i doing this?!? 9 to 3 practices until school starts. Wahoo!
-One thing i do like is sewing tennis skirts to wear for my matches :) I have quite a few now. I sewed this black velvet skirt above

rogan for target shorts
target shoes

-Busy Busy Busy sums up my life lately. Ive been trying to sqeeze in time for everything summer before it ends. Im almost exited for school to start. Reasons
why? Well boyfriend stephen is going to college in duluth which is about 5 hours closer! YAY! I cannot wait.
-I am also exited for school to start because i will not be going to the highschool anymore. Im taking post secondary classes at the community college which count for highschool and college credit. I dont love my highschool or the town that i live in. I just moved here about a year ago and i never really adjusted. I make frequent visits to my old town where all of my good friends are. My dad was in the airforce for a while and so we used to move alot. Minesota, England, California, Wisconsin and Minesota again is the list.. So anyways because i dont like highschool im going to the college instead. I now wont have to wake up until 10 oclock for school! Wahoo!

Zues! Cyclops! Hades!
Went to the dells and picked up this cool tshirt from the gift shop.... Thats all

polka dot dress

-My cousin gave me this polka dot dress because it didnt fit her. At first i was going to give it to my sister because i thought it was a little girly for me. After i played around with it i decided it was a keeper.
-I could only find one black sock so im trying to hide a foot in all of the pics.
-Im really into graphic print tees recently, preferably of some kind of animal.
-This weekend was spent tubing and wakeboarding with cousins. It was a blast. Im going to wake up very sore.
- I am going to visit stephen and friends in my old town for a week. Maybe ill get off this white wall and take some cool pics. Be back later

Yawn?

-Ive gotten lazy this summer in my outfits. I don't post many because most of them are easy casual ensembles that really lack any effort on my part.

-Usually I'm wearing something like this minus the heels. I can only manage to wear heels at night. Boy jeans, black belt and some kind of plain tee. Not inspiring or creative i know.

-Some of you have been asking where these heels are from. Gojanes the site. Knockoff central if your into that. I know it annoys some people but sites like this make me squeal with delight. Dont waste your time looking at the clothes. The shoes are where its at

Blue Moon

-I went thrifting today. Found a bunch of hilariously cool pieces including these denim shorts. I'm completely drawn to there uglyness. I plan on wearing them both cuffed and uncuffed, shirt tucked in and out. I also got a bunch of boy jeans.

-My new accessory is my little sisters bow headband which ive been wearing everywhere. You cant see it very clearly in the second pic though.

-Since im so lousy at finding time to blog I've scheduled a few posts with about 2 days between each.

Vrroom Vroom

No this is not fashion related.
I thought the 4 wheeling trails were pretty so we stopped to snap some pics
(Im putting these up among all the other lonely white wall pics just to liven my blog up a bit)
-I had a busy birthday weekend with stephen. No i did not spend it shopping or eating at a fancy restaurant as some of you kindly suggested i should. It was spend getting dirty 4 wheeling, fishing and doing other outdoorsy activities. Thats the fun part of living way up here in the middle of a forest.
-I did not open up my present yet. I am not that eager to open up what i already know is going to be a gun courtesy of my dad (I got my hunting license this year). Yay, just what every 17 year old girl wants right?!
-Thank you to everyone who wished me a happy birthday!

Birthday!

No outfit posts today im busy bein 17....

Oscar de la renta

I found this great Oscar de la Renta blouse at the salvation army! I love it alot.

Ok so the skirts short, i know. This was the first skirt i made and i hemmed it too short. I Then made an identical one that actually was a decent length but i cannot find it so i had to photograph in this one

I didnt wear this outfit out becuase i had no where to go. I plan on wearing it to dinner with stephen this weekend but with a proper skirt.

Ive stopped labeling my outfits because its always all thrifted besides shoes.

Any questions ask

Check out these cool leggings i found.

-I went thrift crazy at the salvation army today. I wish i would have brought a camera with me because i couldn't buy everything and i had to let go of some great pieces.
-The great thing about living in a small town populated by fashion ignorant people, is that the thrift stores are all mine. I don't have to worry about all the good stuff being taken.

After that to Walmart where i raided the 5 dollar movies. I got these stranger boys to buy them for me because im not 17 and they are R movies. Disgusting i know but it got me the movies so hey.

When i got home there was a package waiting for me with 3 new pairs of shoes!

Overall it was a great day

Bright red lipstick

Its what i bought today. I wanted to see how it looked. I like it. I felt cool wearing it :)


Its an old machine. I guess it belonged to my great grandmother and now its mine!

Ive been busy. Tennis matches, relatives, sewing projects and work. For my upcoming birthday my grandma gave me a sewing machine. Ive always wanted to learn how to sew. So in her stay she helped me with a bunch of projects, mostly all skirts and a few hem jobs on long dresses from goodwill. I'm pretty excited about it all

I wish i could participate in the American Apparel sale going on. Its pretty good check it out. However all of my money is going towards gas for a stephen visit (bf that lives 6 hours away).

So uhh thats all for today
