// How I Style A Bomber Jacket Pt.2 //

Today's Song recommendation is You And I By Washed Out.

Hey guys,

This is one example of how I would style a bomber jacket. This a look with more color, so it's perfect for summer. So here's what I wore today(7/28/2016):







Oh my gosh guys, I have a mustard stain on my skirt which I got during lunch and it pissed me off so much. I covered it up all the time after that,lol.



Outfit Details:
-Top and Skirt:Forever 21
-Shoes:Nike Air Force Ones
-Socks:Amazon
-Flower Crown:Hot Topic
-Bomber jacket: Nina's
-Lipstick:Wet 'n Wild Megalast Lipstick in Mochalicious

Guys, I can't believe my summer program is ending!It's been such a big part of my life for the past three years and I've gone through middle school and grown up in that program. I'm excited to be leaving and having more freedom with my summers, but I'm really,really going to miss it,so it's bittersweet for me. Our official last day is Aug.3rd,but the last day of academic classes is tomorrow. On Aug. 1st and 2nd we're testing and practicing for our end of the summer event where different classes and activities perform. It's so much fun each year. Aug. 3rd is the actual day of our event. I'm probably going to come back next summer as a aide for the program. 
Anyway, about my outfit,I really love the pops of color juxtaposed with the more muted,trendy pieces.I got a lot of compliments on this outfit and that made me super happy. (I don't need other people's validation to feel good in an outfit,it just feels nice to be appreciated/recognized.) Two people said they were getting Coachella vibes from my flower crown and I couldn't agree more.

// Grunge Saturday Night Out Look //

Today's song recommendation is Numb By Marina And The Diamonds.
Hey guys,

So a few weeks back I wore this outfit to a Saturday party. I got a lot of compliments on it, and I'm just really in love with it. This is a really cool dark/edgy look for a night out.




Outfit Details:
-Dress:Tobi.com(thrifted)
-Purse:Hand me Down
-Coat:Thrifted
-Choker:Charlotte Russe
-Shoes:Wild Diva Lounge from Nordstrom Rack
-Lipstick: Wet n' Wild Megalast lipstick in "Vamp It Up"


I really love the different textures in this look. I'm wearing a teddy-bear coat and a velvet dress.I'm pretty sure my shoes are also velvet. My friends don't like velvet, but I'm soooo into it. I'm really digging the dark 90's vibes from this look.

//Plaid And Stripes //

Today's song recommendation is Thinking Of You By Mabel.

Hey guys,

Some Quick Life Updates: 
So I've been really preoccupied with my summer program,and just all the homework that comes with it.I still need to continue with my summer reading for high school. I have to read Fahrenheit 451 and this other history book about explorers. So far I think F. 451 is pretty interesting and I haven't started the other book. School starts Aug. 24th for me, so I really want to enjoy the summer as much as I can. This past weekend my summer program had a camping retreat for the upcoming ninth graders and it was sooo fun. We left on Friday and returned Saturday morning. I have a lot of great inside jokes and experiences/memories from it. I'm want to improve my behavior/attitude because my family perceives me as selfish/disrespectful and that doesn't align with how I want people to see me/ how I see myself. I really do want to have self growth and self improvement this summer because that's so important to me. Thoses were just some all-over-the-place things I wanted to get off of my chest.

Here's The Outfit That I Wore Last Friday(July 22,2016):






Outfit Details:
-Choker: boohoo.com
-Coat: UNIF Nevermind Duster
-Dress: Forever 21
-Shoes:Air Force Ones
-Lipsticks: Colorpop Matte Lipstick In Guess

I ordered a few things online from H&M,Boohoo.com,and Colorpop a few weeks ago,and I just got them last Thursday. I was really excited for the Colorpop package because I have heard so many good things about the company but my personal experience with the liquid lipsticks wasn't good. I don't know if I got a bad batch or not,but when I was wearing Guess I constantly had to reapply and check my lips because it crumbled A LOT. When I checked to see if it transferred,sometimes it transferred,but most times flecks of pigment would come off. I can do a post on the things I ordered sometime this week.

// Casual Plaid Dress OOTD //

Today's song recommendation is Cherry Picking By Girlpool.

Hey guys,


Sorry I haven't posted in a while. At the beginning of the summer, I promised myself that I'd go hardcore in terms of my fashion during the summer,but my summer program is from 8am-4pm,Mondays-Fridays,and I have to wake up early in the mornings for it. I'm really,really lazy in the mornings, so I usually end up wearing really,really casual outfits that aren't super special or blog worthy.I also currently photograph my outfits after I get home, and I'm usually super tired,so I end up taking off my clothes first thing instead of taking photos. I'll try to upload more for the rest of July. I have some cool stuff to post, like a fun Saturday night outfit that I wore to a party a few weeks back, a post on my Rhianna x Puma Fenty fur sandals,etc,.Anyway, today's outfit was pretty casual,but I'll try to spruce up my fashion more often because I usually find myself unhappy during the midday with bland outfit I'm wearing.Here's my OOTD for today(7/20/2016):




Outfit Deatils:
-Dress:Forever 21
-Hoodie:H&M
-Shoes:Nike Air Force Ones

Today my summer program had College and Career Day,and my class(upcoming ninth graders)went to UC Berkeley. It was really fun and I got a lot of exercise. There was a scavenger hunt that me and my group went ham on,but we placed 3rd,lol. On a totally unrelated note, I'm thinking of starting a Youtube channel,I just need to upgrade my camera situation first. I think I might ask for a decent,inexpensive camera for my birthday.


Also, I feel like almost every post I've done recently begins with me apologizing for not posting frequently. I'm definitely going to stop doing that from now on because my schedule is hectic rn and I created this blog to freely express myself,and whenever I push myself to post more than feels natural to me,I just start feeling bad. That's just not what this blog is about.

// Today's OOTD //

Today's song recommendation is The Ballad Of Me And My Brain By The 1975.

Hey guys,


Sorry I haven't posted in a while. It's been really cold in SF this past week, so I've just been wearing plain hoodies and some jeans each day. I was also really busy with homework from my summer program. Happy belated Fourth of July!I hope you enjoyed yours. I really wanted to go to Great America or a county fair,but that didn't happen :(.On a more happy note, I ordered the Rihanna Fenty by Puma Fur slippers in pink, and they arrive on Monday. I couldn't be anymore excited/happy for it to arrive. I'm doing a blog post on them when they get here. Anyway, here's my OOTD for today(July 8,2016):




Outfit Details:
-Sweater:Forever 21
-Coat:UNIF Nevermind Duster Coat
-Hat:UNC-Chapell Hill gift shop
-Choker:Hot Topic
-Jeans:Forever 21
-Shoes:Nike AirForce Ones
-Lipstick Wet N' Wild Megalast lipstick in Mochalicious


Sorry the photos aren't that good. I was in a bad mood, and I was tired. I'm going to start improving the image quality on this blog,I think it deserves more effort from me.
You can't really see it too well,but I really loved the lipstick I was wearing today. Wet N' Wild lipsticks have awesome quality,and they're supper affordable. I wish they would expand their color line. It was only 1.99 from 
Walgreens!I reminds me of candy k and posie k from kylie cosmetics/a kylie jenner-type color.
